    Same issues as above, trying to port for over a week, no response from customer service. I rang my current provider and they see no issue.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 324 ✭✭Hardtochoose


    Is there anyone actually getting through to someone on chat? Nobody showing up when I wait after 30 minutes or more. When they do ever show up they give a ridiculous suggestion like ‘wait another 24 hours’ to delay the customer even more.

    My advice again is to quote them their own code of practice from their site. Request the issue is escalated. They must provide a ticket reference num and resolve within 48 hrs. If not then email complaints@gomo.ie

    This crowd seem to be either/or utterly incompetent or completely didn’t anticipate the demand. Both are inexcusable

    Consumerline@comreg.ie if you’d like to make them aware of the issues you’re having

    Is anyone who isn't with Eir having porting issues?

    Iv read over 100 pages of the thread sorry if this was asked all ready I ordered a sim on Tuesday but I don't recall it asking to port my number.

    I have payed the 10 euro fee got a text and after a few trys got to login to my account. When the SIM comes can port over at a later date.

    Thanks

    Both parents had ports set for 11am, still nothing happening at 3:45p
    . I’d really advise people to hold off porting until they sort out wtf they’re at because at the minute there’s a fairly large percentage of issues with ports from reading on here.

    Yes you can port at a latter date.

    OK, just got the dreaded "oh no" text, still no clearer so I cancelled the port and set it again for 4.30pm. I'll let you know in half an hour!

    Yeah, seems the way to go alright. My account was closed with GoMo without them giving any reason why and it happended at 8pm so couldn't get through to their customer service. I got in contact with ComReq who basically asked me to email complaints@gomo.ie and ask for a unique complaint number to pass on to ComReq- this seems to have moved things along as they reinstated my account and gave me some credit to spend.


    From experience, their email service is abysmal. That said, if you want to get in contact with them their chat starts at 9am and can be reached under the Register an Account link. Worked for me every time. Email usually took longer than 24 hrs and the responses were useless.

    My brother had similar issue yesterday morning, attempted to contact them via all available channels but no reply.

    Later in the day he decided to change his current mobile account type (eir 30 day rolling contract) from postpay to prepay in the move my number option, number ported within 15 mins. Data not initially available, switching off/on the phone sorted that.

    How long has everyone been waiting for their sim? Ordered Sunday still not here today. Surely can't take that long to get a blank sim in an envelope

    I ordered Sunday and no sign yet. I'm porting Wednesday so hopefully I get it before then. I'm unable to change the port date as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,066 ✭✭✭jakdublin


    Waiting to port since 9am with no luck so far. Opened the webchat and after a couple of hours it just came up with a 'chat ended' message. Don't think I'll be moving until after the bank holiday weekend so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,410 ✭✭✭madmoe


    Anyone know the GoMo Voicemail number by any chance?


    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,085 ✭✭✭irelandspurs


    Anyone having trouble once port has gone through, try turning on airplane mode then turn it off.

    Our no data problem was solved by switching data roaming on and off, then a restart.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,004 ✭✭✭_Whimsical_


    Someone got back to me on twitter about the fact that I cannot schedule a port date or time to say that "we are having trouble with parts of our site, should be resolved shortly".

    I have all of this except APN protocol is only IPv4. What difference does that make?

    Came home to find it delivered and my dog was so good she opened the outer cardboard envelope and ate some of the bag with the SIM in.....


    Great little friend and is getting quite fond of eating packages that fit into the letter box....

    I'm going to leave porting I think till next week but I may see.

    I ordered Wednesday week ago....

    I thought I read that you have to sign for the package when they deliver the sims?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 869 ✭✭✭Simon201


    All up and running - sim came within 3 days after signing up on the 15th. Ported on 22nd iPhone Xs everything working ok except I seem to have to put into airplane mode and then turn off maybe once a day to get data back. Apart from that, happy camper...

    It’s mentioned in the emails but you don’t have to sign for it.

    If you tap on the APN protocol in the settings it will let you choose IPv4 or IPv6 or both.

    They are just the protocol type used to connect to the internet.

    Hi my contract ran out with eir in August ( phone from Eir) I rang eir and told them I was switching to GoMo . I now have changed to the new sim . Ported my number but all I am getting is no service for the last 2 hours . Do I have to get my phone unlocked the agent in Eir does not seem to know . Eir are saying it takes 5 days to get an unlocking code.
    I can’t be without my phone for that long
    Thanks

    It’s working now . On to chat half the day

    VF giving unlimited calls, unlimited texts & 5GB to all PAYG customers for next 28 days. They must be feeling the pressure...
    Competition is a good thing.

    Wife was set to port at 1700. Popped the new SIM in at around 1740 and all is working thankfully both incoming and outgoing. Thank fcuk for that as I couldn't be listening to her complaining after I encouraged her to move. Weekend saved! :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 RJellybean


    Finally looks like I have been issued with a number on the website so expecting sim card on Tuesday

    I'm still waiting :(:(
