    What I can read from this, correct me if I'm wrong. If you are in another EU country and call back home to Ireland it's free as in your package. But if you call a number in the country that you are in it's charged as a local call not an international call?

    Hi lads.

    Im currently on tesco mobile trying to port over to 48.

    When i enter my 48 security code and click "move my number to 48", the 48 logo spins a few times but nothing happens.

    Any ideas how to sort this lads?

    Does the new 48 sim need to be in the phone to port over?

    Thanks guys

    Unless 48 have some different rules,

    when roaming all calls made to any EU country from the country you are in are included, mobile or landline.

    Probably a silly question but I've never left a bill pay provider before. With Vodafone until contract expires on 22nd October Want to make sure I'm not charged for any period after that. Should I give 30 days notice and port over circa 22nd September or just wait and port out on 22/10? Sick of paying them 60 a month so want to make sure I don't owe them anything I don't need to while also not paying for two providers at once!

    Even when you are out of Contract you need to give them 30 days notice. The best way is to port your number 30 days before you contract ends this is effectually giving them 30 days notice. I know you will be paying 48 the same time you will be paying your final bill with Vodafone. Hope this helps

    Might be worth paying the 7.99 and trying out 48 for a while before leaving Vodafone. You might find 48 coverage crap in your area. If your happy with 48 you can move, if not you could move to a cheaper Vodafone plan or move to post phone they're on the Vodafone network.
    I'm in Tuam and am getting poor enough speeds on 48.

    This is what I am doing at present. I have virgin fibre wifi at home so the fact I am only getting 2meg is not an issue. It is only for when I am out. Depending on where I am, I am seeing 30 meg in some places.


    I just ordered a sim for someone in the country. They can test the data signal with the free 1gig starter allowance. This should tell her if it is suitable for her LTE modem.

    Anyone experiencing delays porting from GoMo?
    I initiated the port at 5.50pm.
    Got the code and my48 is still saying port in progress now at 10.20pm.

    Is it just a case of doing it too late in the day and may happen in the morning?

    Their website say to port between 8am and 6pm, so you could've been too late. It should swap over in the morning though

    My dad is on the 10 euro eir prepay plan offering unlimited calls - for 28 days

    He doesn't text or use data
    The 7.99 is better value
    International calls are cheaper on eir
    (UK 10c)
    Still 7.99 is a good deal

    Anyone sort voicemail on iPhone?
    When I press the voicemail button it calls nothing.

    Just dial 171. The Voicemail button in the Phone app is for Visual Voicemail, which I don't think is supported outside the states.

    No the button works as a call to 171. Has worked this way since the beginning on previous networks.

    Ah ok, I never used it previously on other networks. But just tried it there on 48 and I can confirm it doesn't do anything for me either. Calling 171 works fine though.

    Maybe try reset Network Settings? But this will also wipe all saved WiFi passwords so you may not want to do that.

    Does 48 allow you to check your call history? Can't find it!
