    It will be a long long time before they police such issues, if ever

    I assume the no business part is that there is no Vat invoices, no billing every quarter, no more than 30 euro bills, no SLA that business users usually require and no liability for loss of business if service is not provided.

    I suspect if you looked up Free you'd see the same rules.

    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...

    Port scheduled for 09:13, Eir SIM lost signal at around 09:40, number ported over at 12:23.

    I was worried for a while but it soon worked out. Very happy so far.

    My dad received his son this morning, port scheduled for 3.37, he sent me a text at 3.39 to say everything had gone smoothly...

    Got my sim the other day, 3 sim went dead at 8am this morning exactly when I told it to but the number didn't port for 8 hours after that, all good now though, LTE throughout our office building in Bray which is a bit of a dead zone and 70-80 mb/s download speeds, bargain of the decade! Like a free tenner every month forever and no more getting caught out because I didnt top up.

    Yeah , this was one of the clinchers for me. Also I think Vodafone were selling a stroke too with having to top up every 28 days . I say between topping up a day earlier or on time , I say they were getting an extra €20 out of me by the end of the year .

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but is anyone having issues receiving calls & texts from Vodafone numbers? I ported my number on Thursday 24/10. Data Works fine, I can call all numbers, text all numbers, calls and texts from Three numbers are fine and calls from landlines are okay, but calls and texts to my GoMO from Vodafone numbers don't work. When I call from my wife's or my Vodafone work phones it says invalid number.

    Also, annoyingly, when I try to set up new payee on my online banking, I can't receive the SMS security code (presumably because they use Vodafone to text them out).

    I have contacted support, but they tell me my number ported fine from their end and to contact Vodafone (which is stupid as I'm not a Vodafone customer).

    GF's mother has moved over to GoMo. GF (on Three) can't text her mother. Calls go through fine. Texts can be received from other providers. Anybody had similar? Thanks

    Turn it off for half an hour.

    Was due to switch over in the morning at 11.04 but sim arrived at lunch so re arranged to port at 2.05 all done at 2.15 and all working. Only thing I can’t figure is that in iMessage it’s locked on the GoMo number of 085 and not my number I ported over. Anyone had this issue and fixed it ??

    You need to change the number in your iMessage settings.

    Cheers Thargor. Will report progress in the morning.

    God bless the internet and the free advice it brings.

    Don't have an iPhone but I have seen this issue resolved in earlier threads if you check back :)

    Have I missed the boat? Signed up using my email address 20 mins ago but haven’t received a follow up email?

    I failed to get emails because I used revolut, which may or may not work.

    Check your spam folder.
    I think some people have had problems when using Microsoft email.

    It’s fantastic ain’t it! I swapped over two phones - I was sick of calling people insufficient credit - texting the asking them to call me etc the data alone is so worth it - I watched live tv no issue while in cafe chilling could never do that before or I’d use up all my data - amazing deal!

    Enable it - it asked me when I put in the sim new number or continue with old number ie my own number I selected this and no issue maybe sign out of iCloud etc and back in.

    Eventually signed up last night. Order is currently in progress. How long will this take to complete?

    I want to port over my number, do I need to wait for sim to arrive in post? How long will this take?

    Yes I believe you're best waiting for the SIM and then create the port request.

    As to how long it'll all take...how long is a piece of string? i.e. it's too variable to say

    That's nuts. I've not seen a result that high posted here

    But the thing about speedtests on mobile networks is that's the speed of the mast sector you're connected to. There is no bandwidth limiting or shaping. It's the sign of an empty network. Much like Three it'll be oversubscribed before long, especially with this great deal

    They used say about 3g in rural areas. If you get good speeds, don't tell your neighbour, cos the minute he joins you're sharing it

    Currently porting status in progress online but my coverage hasn't gone down or anything Is this the norm?

    I can call now with my gomo number.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭jarvis


    Do they email you when it’s despatched? I ordered 9 days ago. On Friday they emailed account active and when I logged in I could see I then had a phone number, pin and puk. I know it was a bank holiday weekend so didn’t expect anything to happen. I did hope though that it would despatch Tuesday or Wednesday morning but I haven’t been notified of its depatch yet.

    Hi, can someone help me please. I am trying to switch over to Gomo. I received the sim yesterday. Every time I try to log in, it tells me I have to give the Date of Birth that i registered with first time around. I must have put the wrong one in but i cant go any further unless i have it. I have tried to contact support but same problem happens. I need the DOB. I cant find an online chat. Can anyone help me?

    Call another phone to make sure it's your ported number. If it is you're good to go. If not wait a little longer

    Happened for me as well. It's a glitch in their system. Don't waste time emailing them - get on to their support chat instead and keep at it every day until it's rectified. Took about 3 days for me.


    The online chat pop up can be found at the right hand side under Register Account. I recommend that you get onto them early. They open at 9am.
