    I ordered Tuesday afternoon with a port for Monday morning - still no sim! Order still in progress


    If ye go onto FAQ on their site it says that sims will be delivered within 2 working days. It then gives ye the option to contact them if ye have a processing/delivery query.

    Can I just ask if you ordered both Sims together under the same order ?
    I ordered two sims on Tuesday (ordered together with just one order number). One arrived this morning, despite both showing as 'order in progress' in MyGoMo. Just wondering if you are in a similar position.

    Yes, exactly as that. I wonder if I won't get service on the first until the second arrives and triggers the order being complete...

    Disagree with that. It’s just cheap.

    On paper, the offering is better then every other network at the moment.

    Nonsense. If that was the case it wouldn't be "unlimited"

    If I put my port date in as Saturday but don't receive the Gomo sim card by then will my current sim stop working on Saturday?

    You can change the port date if you register for mygomo. I received mine today so I brought the port date forward. I'm posting from the network now. Speeds are fine. Not Vodafone speeds but perfectly adequate for my needs. Things like voicemail etc will get ironed out.

    Does anyone know is there anyway to check your usage apart from when you get your bill?

    All operators are guilty of using this term "unlimited", 80GB is a better offering that three's all you can eat data offering of 60GB's

    Unlikely as there is no sim to port it to (but its eir and anything can happen!)

    It's more I don't wanna be without service

    Ive been assured by online chat that if a sim hasn't been received by your porting time, then the port wont go through and you can just select another time once your sim arrives.

    Will your current service stop working on Monday regardless of whether your GoMo sim arrives?

    just onto Eir chat asking about process here to move from sim only plan to gomo.. he told me i needed to go to a shop .. eir support is really the worst

    Not sure what's worse, you contacting eir support to find out the process of moving to another provider (separate identity) when there is simple clear instructions on the site or eir chat services who dont support this provider advising you to go to a shop....stupidity cancelled out...

    Unfortunately not. Took it for granted that at least would get 3g which we have on 48 network.

    "Enjoy 99% 3G population coverage and 97% 4G population coverage across Ireland."

    Our part of Ashbourne obviously falls into the 1%.
    Just checked the Eir coverage and apparently we are supposed to be in an excellent 4g area. :|

    You sure that is ported correctly?

    I am on Eir, visit Ashbourne regularly and worked there for about a year and never had any issues with them at all!

    As I haven't received my sim yet, I cant confirm one way or the other, but I just checked on my son's phone, his sim came today, he doesn't have the option for wifi calling on his One Plus 6 phone. I'd rather not try his sim in my phone as i dont want to mess up my imessage settings.

    I currently have wifi calling with Eir, but I never use it as I find it to unstable in parts of the house with weak wifi
    It might be to do with your son's phone settings or os too. I came across this https://www.eir.ie/support/smartphonehelp/?page=topic/wifi/how-to-enable-and-disable-wifi-calling/device/oneplus/6/os-selection

    Exactly I can't afford to be off the air for that long as I said it'll suit people who don't care about being uncontactable. Wish I had the luxury.
    Good value for a data sim, think Virgin were doing a similar offer for €5 a month a while back but unfortunately I'm not in a virgin area.


    Someone who's in that boat needs a plan - a second emergency sim!
    It sounds like you're a business?
    If so, GoMo don't allow it (just as well)

    No, I didn't order till around 8pm Tuesday evening, One of my sons ordered his at 5pm and he got his this morning, my other son ordered his after 6 and he's also still waiting. Its not really an issue for me as long as my port doesn't go through in the morning at he time I selected. Online chat are saying it wont port at scheduled time unless me sim has been delivered first.

    My experience. Ordered two Sims early on Tuesday before the offer was supposed to go live. Sims arrives the next morning. Two APNs added on both phones. On the Xiaomi Mi A2 lite it was incorrectly set to the MMS APN. Scheduled the poring of numbers for 9am this morning. Went through ok, but both phones needed to either be rebooted or set to flight mode on/off. Get 4G/3G solidly in an area that often only has 2G on the Three/Tesco network

    Trying to order two sims but every time enter in account number it’s asking for a valid account number?
