    If I go to them from Eir do I have to let Eir know? Would cancelling my direct debit to them be sufficient? I'm on rolling bill pay. Not sure where my documents are. Thanks, S

    You will need your Eir account number to move your number to GoMo if you intend porting, once the port goes through then your account with Eir will automatically cancel.

    Think there is still a couple months left in my current contract but if I got the sim could I just port my number in a few months or do you have to port number on signup?

    I would assume you could, if you are worried, just select a port date as far ahead as you can, that way when sim arrives you can use away on the 085 number, if you are happy then, move forward the port date in your myGOMO acc and if not, then just cancel your account.
    Good workaround thanks.

    But you’d then be paying for two accounts, hold fire for the moment and see how things pan out, from reading through this thread, they’ll be quite a few leaving as quick as they’ve joined up so the 100,000 figure will be around for a good while yet. I also reckon that they’ll be another advertising campaign when they reach 50k saying only 50k left etc....

    I signed up last Thursday evening, but haven't been charged the activation fee yet.

    Just a €0 transaction on my revolut.
    No email confirmation either.

    Hoping my SIM arrives.

    Signed up myself, paid the tenner, and today received notice of new number, puk and pin codes etc.
    However the sim hasn't arrived yet. Hopefully Monday.

    Does anyone know if it supports Wifi Calling ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,189 ✭✭✭leche solara


    Received the sim yesterday. Went in and scheduled port for 3 today. Logged at 13:25 today and changed port time to 13:30. At 13:30 my status changed to port in progress and 20 minutes later it was done. Everything worked perfectly straight away, but no voicemail. Telling me I've entered an incorrect phone number. Up and down speeds much the same as what I had with VM. Ping faster though.

    Just checked and Eir don't support 4G on Moto g6, any idea why? Presume GoMo are the same?
    FFS, just bought a G7. Hope there's no problem with that.

    Should do as long as your phone has the eir/meteor firmware.

    No supported usually means it hasn't been tested on their network. It should still work.

    Thought they said no WiFi calling?

    I'm on prepay Eir and I don't have it, even though my phone is capable of it...

    GoMo themselves have confirmed it is not supported.


  • Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 9,295 Mod ✭✭✭✭Aquos76


    My young lads iPhone XR has WiFi calling on it and when he selects it with his GoMo sim in it, he gets this message

    You can sign up without porting and no account details needed. Then when the SIM arrives and you are happy to port you log in to the website and select move my number. No need to commit to porting from the start.

    If you have an eir locked out of contract phone can it be used without having to go to the hasstle of getting your phone unlocked from Eir network

    Have 2 sims under my current provider three3. One is mine other is daughters who is a minor. I want to port both over and keep both original numbers.

    Not sure what is the right way to do this as I only seem to have the option to keep one number if I buy 2 sims. Possibly 2 separate transactions. Anyone else done this?

    You can port two numbers under the same account

    I'm i bit concerned as seem to have no data coverage on the north side of Cork city this evening. Was working fine earlier on. Is this typical of the Eir network?

    What happened that they got rid of Meteor?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭fmul9798


    They didn't, they just rebranded it to Eir ages back, and now Eir have launched an MVNO on their own network.

    Did Eir and Meteor not operate seperately for a while?

    Seemly yes. But better to get the unlock now while an Eir customer instead of trying for it later when not.

    I was only in there for 2 minutes.
