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 think you're the one making a show of himself here. You've offered nothing to this thread and now you're clogging it up trying to justify your failure to do the most basic research.

So you have tried reading 250 pages of posts on a small device? Everyone except this high horse that I've engaged with here has been more than helpful.

TheDriver

stop the bickering please. No giving out about other posters or waffle, only chat about the bargain or issues relating to the bargain or assistance relating to the bargain. You get the picture....

Seriously if someone asks a question that's been asked before and it annoys you why not just ignore it

No, sure it rarely if ever happens after 6pm on a week day

I believe so but it does not work 100% of the time and there is no one to contact or at least it is very difficult to comtact support on a bank holiday.

Where I was living up to a few weeks ago there was no coverage in my house. The odd time I could make a call from one bedroom but it would come and go and be only 2G. Otherwise I'd have to go down the road. Had no coverage in work either unless I went outside. Still it didn't bother me too much. It was relaxing in many ways to do without. I would spend the effort to write a decent sized message to someone instead of a one liner, got to know the locals, went for the odd pint across the road

Twould be gas if some of the complainers in here had to live there for a few weeks. What they'd come out with would be comedy gold

IT'S A BANK HOLIDAY

(sorry about caps)

I got an email from CUstomer Care today and then 2 further emails confirming my cancellation request so they were working today. Same goes for Eir. They also worked and were active on Twitter.

Voicemail looks like it takes a while to activate or so was the case with all 3 accounts we ported to them

Yes it just takes a few hours to sort itself out.

Porting works much better during the week. We've ported 3, mine took 18 hours over the last weekend. The other two took minutes mid week

Conversely I set a VF PAYG port on Friday evening for 10am Saturday morning (what I'd term last minute) and it was done within about 15 minutes. Hadn't even tried/checked the SIM card beforehand (foolishly perhaps!).
Also even received a text message from VF confirming the port was complete and thanking me for my custom.

All in we've ported 3 Sims plus one new one and all have been flawless.
Guess we've been lucky!

Finally just to add it's not much use people asking how speeds/reception is. It's all dependable on your *exact* location ... Distance to mast, number of people connecting to it, your actual phone (strong/week radio) and physical obstacles in-between like trees, hills, buildings etc.

Best advice is to get yourself a SIM and take a "suck it and see" approach. Also it should be very similar to Eir if you're you already have experience of it.

Pity the main points of information can't be stickied at the top of *every page*.
It's causing some level of consternation to some people, and understandably so!

(sorry about caps)

Tell who ever is complaining I was testing the sim for the week then decided last night I’ll port both my numbers today at 9.00 knowing it was the bank holiday and I thought when I wake up it will either be done or not - woke up at 11am both phones swapped over no issue - the iPhone had the data apn from old sim so just changed that and bingo. For €9.99 amazing deal!

Check you have an APN setup. It should automatically be there but not always.

My iPhone was the same ported perfectly except the data - went onto boards typed in APN GoMo found the link for settings took about 10 seconds and working perfect. For €9.99 I’m still in shock that I can call who ever I want - surf and not have to worry about anything it’s seriously amazing! I had tested the sim for 5 days previous to porting my own number.

What speeds are folks seeing on 4G typically when in a decent coverage area?

20MB+ ?

Just parked in the Applegreen on the Motorway on the way home. 70mb Download and 25.5 upload!

Service is fantastic! Once it’s above 6mb daily I don’t care I just think for €9.99 it’s incredible!

Qrt

My port is planned for tomorrow morning. Being honest, I’m a bit terrified. I’m off away on Thursday and I REALLY need this to go smoothly for me. I’m with Eir at the moment so I’m sure that’s of some benefit, but I’m worried nonetheless...

It'll probably be available online... Can't your phone do that for you? Pretty sure it can, depending on what phone you have...

Oh yeah, definitely can. I'm more about nailing down what the network records from their end. Just keeping an eye on it for the first month. Once I get an idea of typical usage on a month by month it should be fine.

GOMO VoiceMail is now working - ported my own number at 9am wasn’t working and Customer support said give it 24hrs and it’s less and working. Also coming from Tesco Mobile the voicemail icon when you click phone on iPhone never worked - now since change to GoMo a red dot appears on the word voicemail, it’s the little things that make me happy

I know they are available here, but you'd think GoMo would have the correct APN settings listed on their help & support page.

Sim card out for delivery wow feels like a long 2 weeks

byrnefm

Hi,

My wife received her new GoMo SIM card this morning. The only thing is .. the number on the SIM card does not match her account .. and the SIM won't connect to the network, either. "Cannot connect right now" when I try, so it doesn't seem to be activated.

Customer Support seems to be email-only now, too? I emailed them but heaven knows how long it will take to get a reply (even if they say 24 hours).

Has anyone else received a SIM with the "wrong" phone number?

A new SIM always ships with a number. This will change to your number when your number ports. Login to their website and set the date and time to port your number

If you need to contact support you will get their chat on the website after 9, yesterday was a bank holiday

Thanks! The only thing is - the new SIM number (unlock, PUK, phone number) on her GoMo account doesn't match the one she received - the last two digits of the phone number are different but the first 5 are the same. She hasn't gotten as far as porting yet.

I'll see if I can get through on Customer Support later - thanks for the advice!

I'd hold off porting until you contact Support. I have heard of people ending up with receiving calls destined for someone else after porting. Also problems with porting anyway.
That doesn't sound good if you have a SIM with a different number to her account.
Try GoMo Facebook or Twitter pages. You might get a quicker response that way.

Sorry if they are different you will need to talk to them. It happened someone else in this thread can't remember their outcome. The GoMo support isn't the best, it's one area they cut corners on but to save your sanity try contact them on a week day 9-5

I'm using my second GoMo SIM with my 4G Huawei B525 router and all going well so far.

Was torrenting last night and was getting 3/4MBps per second download.

Thanks,
