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.

Coverage pretty abysmal in Ashbourne. Coverage chart shows solid 4G...however reality is very different. Have tried Meteor APN as well as Eirmobile. Both equally pathetic.
1.2Mb download, 0.2Mb upload.

You aren't the only one complaining about Ashbourne, must be a bit of a bad spot for coverage...

I used to work out there and never had an issue on Eir but maybe things have changed?

So many people b*tching about the speed not being the same as some other provider
Reality is you probably never even use those speeds except when doing a speed test (like every new GoMo customer is trying to do this week)

Worst kind of time of year if there is a forest between you and the mast - lots of foliage covered in moisture

But you do agree surely if its the same company providing the service they should be comparable?

Seeing as how GoMo is owned by Eir does anyone know if a SIM will be recognised in a locked to Eir iPhone?

Ordinarily I would say no, but I remember when Eir took over Meteor that their SIMs worked fine in locked to Meteor phones.

There might be a distinction between "network" and "operator", and for a time, Meteor handsets were sold unlocked. I'll be interested to find out. I hope it works.

What are you waffling about?

Co. Meath is not noted for its forests.

Do you expect Nescafe Original to be the same as Nescafe Gold even tho it's cheaper???

Did you actually read any of this thread?

Numerous people have posted speed tests showing that GoMo and Eir speeds are pretty much identical.

And while they're not that fast, the majority were well over 10 Mbps.

You need to look up what 'analogy' means. It's called bullsh1t.

No but i expect 4g data speeds with Eir to be the same as 4g data speeds with Eir.

I've just tested GoMo again - got 52 down - I now conclude GoMo is better than what I had with eir since I only got 50 with eir last Tuesday

EGriff

Got my SIM today. Tested the speed and it's 30Mbps, pretty good I thought. Tested my 3 SIM and I'm getting over 100 Mbps, I never knew it was that fast and probably won't notice the difference for what I do on my phone. I'm in north Co. Cork.

Im waiting to see that what GoMo are providing is similar to what Eir provides, as its what I expect. So far it seems as that wont be the case apart from some sporadic comparisons which say they are the same.Disappointing really.

Hopefully the exodus to Eir will improve 3 for us remainers

You are being very pendantic about something you wouldn't even notice in daily use.
Unless you are downloading multi GB files (on a phone why would you) and desperate for time you could survive on 5Mbs very happily and not know the difference if you had 100Mbs download speed

People complaining about a technology they barely have a grasp of how it works

(And Gomo are a fraction of what anyone else is charging for "all in")

Really? what an ignorant way of viewing things. why would it concern you so much? I'm trying to get info if it upsets you to the point of surrender maybe you should log off for abit and not get so involved.

Good point! In the past week I got a 4G router and a 3 SIM. Have it in the attic and it's working well, unfortunately cannot get a good Eir 4G signal.

With the wife and I switching our phones to Gomo and 3 for the internet we're now paying €40 in total per month for all that. Not bad at all but would love if fibre was an option.

Try it for a week - costs you a tenner
If it doesn't work for you then stay as you are

I think we have to wait a couple of weeks to see if this is worth using or not because basing this on a couple of speed test is not realistic.

Speed tests shown here are simple tests that can have different results depending on browser used, amount of users at the time and servers used.

Once enough people post their real live experience streaming or downloading Spotify/Amazon Music/Tidal etc. or watching Netflix or speed of download from the play / apple store than we will know.

As to the delivery delays, they clearly underestimated the amount of people willing to swap, but giving how change resistant Irish customers usually are that can be excused.

Let’s see how they are in real life with download speed and voice quality (HD voice for example like on EIR) and was than we will know what to make of it.

Right now I will for sure invest 9.99 to test it. If it does not work for me I simply cancel. I had mostly good experience with EIR network (not the customer service the network) but they just got to the expensive.

I ported over yesterday from Virgin Sim Free. Data working fine but cannot receive any calls or texts from any other mobile number. Anyone else with the same issue?

Absolutely spot on, I’m still on eir and I did a speedtest in the centre of Waterford City about half hour ago and got 52mb down, 5 mins later I go 13mb, fact is, I’d never have noticed it if I was checking speeds. Most of the time 5mb is perfect for what we are all using our phones for.

Bootsy can I ask where are you that's 10 mins from the city that has bad coverage?

I'm a similar distance and was considering making the move to GoMo, but perhaps we're in different directions from the city?

Southside near CUH. I’m up to two bars now but still only 3G and poor speed.

There is a 14 day cooling off cancellation option with GoMo so something to look forward to!

fritzelly

Just testing the voicemail
The Call Catcher text still says from eir, so seems they are still very much the same infrastructure for anyone asking about eir locked phones

Think about it like this. 100K sign up. Everyone ports. Realised the network is terrible. Ports back month 2. Nice easy 2 million euro for eir

Don't forget the activation fee. Only adds another million.

As a go alone company they probably won't break even for a while
Their advertising,staff costs etc would likely eat up income for months to come
I wonder are they operating as a branch of eir or paying eir a premium for usage of their systems (Starbucks like if you want)

beet_root

Just checked and Eir don't support 4G on Moto g6, any idea why? Presume GoMo are the same?
