Eir GoMo - €9.99/month SIM only (unlimited calls, texts and 80GB data, 10Gb EU Roam

damien

Eir are bringing out a new offering called GoMo at 1130am today. It's a new mobile virtual network. All you can eat data (really 80GB) for €9.99 a month for the first 100k customers. Calls, texts and all that jazz. 10GB EU roaming data too. You can use it as a hot spot. 30 day rolling contract too. Still waiting to check the very fine print.

I'm with Eir on a contract - do I have to see this out or can I switch over now?

I think I answered my own question, their Help & Support page confirms that ur first bill is your mnthly plan plus previous usage.

Sounds expensive. I think I’ll order pay the initial fee and wait to activate on 1st nov.

Looks like you are correct about the billing date, however there is still a bit of confusion over the 9.99 activation fee, apparently its now the fee for the Oct bill!

Hello! Next available customer representative will be with you shortly.
Representative Mathew has joined the session
Mathew [10:49:12 AM]
Hey! Thanks for getting in touch. My name is Matthew. How can I help?
Mathew [10:50:34 AM]
I'm sorry, I haven't heard from you for a while. Do you still want to chat?
You [10:51:36 AM]
hi
Mathew [10:51:54 AM]
Hello, How can I help you?
You [10:51:58 AM]
I am enquiring about billing datse please
Mathew [10:52:22 AM]
Billing dates will be at the start of every month.
You [10:52:42 AM]
If I port my number over this friday, will I be charged 9.99 for the month of Oct or just pro rata up to the 1st Nov?
Mathew [10:53:24 AM]
Yes you will be charged for October and then the next Bill will be start of November.
You [10:54:00 AM]
So i will be charged 9.99 for a full month despite over half the month gone?
You [10:55:10 AM]
So what if someone ports on the 30th Oct, do they also have to pay the full 9.99 for Oct, then another 9.99 2 days later for Nov?
Mathew [10:56:56 AM]
Yes this is correct, if this is a problem for you, you can wait until the 1st November to sign up.
You [10:57:54 AM]
Ive signed up already, can I delay the porting process and not use the account till 1st Nov?
Mathew [10:58:48 AM]
You can choose the date and time of when you would like to port the number within your my GoMo account.
You [10:59:20 AM]
Yes, but when do I start getting charged is what Im asking now?
Mathew [11:00:24 AM]
So you've already been charged the 9.99 for the SIM, and your next 9.99 will be the 1st November.
You [11:00:56 AM]
But what if I use the sim when it arrives tomorrow?
Mathew [11:01:40 AM]
It will still be the same if you start using tomorrow, your bill will 1st November.
You [11:02:10 AM]
So just to confirm, the 9.99 for the sim is actually the billing fee for Oct?
Mathew [11:02:30 AM]
Essentially, yes.
You [11:03:30 AM]
Ah ok, that clear things up a bit. I am currently on a sim only deal with Eir, is this essentially the very same plan?
Mathew [11:04:10 AM]
We are on the same network as eir, so your coverage and all that will be the same.
You [11:05:16 AM]
ok, finally, one other question, 076 numbers are currently taken from my unlimited with Eir, will this still be the same with GoMo?
Mathew [11:05:54 AM]
Yes this will be the same, you will get unlimited calls to landlines with GoMo.
You [11:06:28 AM]
Ok, thanks for your assistance, much appreciated
Mathew [11:07:04 AM]
No problem, thanks for chatting with me today.

Sorry or just bumping up my query ; I am struggling with flue - may even have been answered

I know some/all suppliers technically disallow hotspotting etc

but would there be an issue ?

It's not going to be a problem with the sim, but you'll need to make sure the modem is not network locked.

What prefix numbers are people getting. I've an 085

Kind of lines up with it being meteor under a new name

Did everybody get an email straight away after signing up?

I signed up, got the confirmation screen (and number) but no email...?

No, didn't get the email, registered myself last night via the MyGoMo link on the home page.

my wife is currently with Eir (non contract) paying €25pm

am i wrong in assuming the service/coverage would be exactly the same as using the same network?

also would her number need to be ported seeing as currently with Eir

At the moment yes, but try may keep Eir as the premium brand and only offer 5G through Eir.

As far as I recall, that was always the worst in terms of coverage

Anyone in any rural areas happy with their Meteor/Eir network? I know 3G was non existent in parts of rural Tipp on Three, until we moved to Vodafone. Now we get by quite easily

Can you port your number over a later date if you choose not to port when initially signing up?
I'd like to try the coverage before porting my number over.

Or alternatively, if I choose when signing up to port my number over in a few weeks time, can I try out the SIM in the meantime or would it not work at all until the port date?

076 is the prefix for VOIP numbers in Ireland

076 is the VOIP prefix but there are also VOIP numbers with prefixes that are usually geographic, and technically people who get their landline service from Virgin are VOIP users. This means that they can't use services like Phonewatch.

GoMo should clarify where exactly the VOIP rate applies.

Currently 076 numbers are included in my unlimited plan with Eir simo deal, will be curious to see if that’s the case now with GoMo

Not sure if anyone has asked this yet. Any concern about clause 4.5? (Though I know the chances of it happening is very slim). Just curious what people think. I'm sure many people have their numbers for many years and to think that it can be changed at their discretion is a bit troubling.

I wouldn't be surprised to find that in every operator's T&Cs

Also it might only extend to the 085 number allocated to your SIM. That usually gets overridden when you port your own number in.

They aren't going to take ownership of your ported number.

This seems too good to be true. My whole family have moved to Vodafone in the last couple of months, as the network is far superior to any other providers, particularly around rural Tipperary!

Do Eir piggy back off Three?

I put my daughter on Vodafone X at €20 a month. Surely they'll have to respond to this??

No, they have their own network, previously meteor

Got my sim this morning. Signature required. But as it will fit in the letter box, some posties will sign for it, or scan it as being left in safe place (if option is allowed).
It pays to look after your postie at Christmas.

The only thing standing out as sketchy to me at the moment is the out of plan call charges

Specifically VOIP

I havn't even seen the term VOIP used in years, when I am abroad though I tend to use whatsapp to call home, is that VOIP in this terms?

Have they figured out a way to bill for this separately to other data usage?

Sorry, this is probably nothing, but it just struck me as weird and this deal strikes me as a little bit too good to be true... (ever the skeptic)

4.5 You do not own the Number allocated to you. We can change the Number at our discretion and will not be liable for any loss or damage, direct or indirect, which might arise from such change.

What's the story with switching from a virgin sim only/rolling contract plan to this? Will I need to do anything or will GoMo just cancel the virgin plan when porting the number?

I'm tied into my Vodafone contract until December 2020 but I applied for the GoMo sim anyway. Will use the sim in another phone I have. If GoMo works out well then I won't renew my Vodafone contract next year. Besides the GoMo contract is monthly so you could give it a try. If after 2 or 3 months it doesn't seem worth it you only lost €20 or €30.

Always interesting to look at Fair usage here

Unlimited minutes and SMS allowances where applicable are subject to a fair usage allowance of 45,000 minutes and 10,000 SMS. Minutes and SMS apply to usage within the
Republic of Ireland and EEA zone countries. Roaming allowances are subject to fair usage limits. Excludes Premium, International and roaming outside of the EEA zone.

45,000 minutes seems alot i don't think you could actually use that within a month. I figure there is 44,640 minutes in a 31 day month.

Bar i am tied into my contract until next summer i would be going for this.
