If you're on PAYG you can have a number active and just pay standard rates if you need to make a call. You just need to top up every so often. Tin Pin has pointed out that GoMo isn't PAYG so if I cancel the SIM the number will go. I'll talk to them at the time (hopefully they won't be as busy!) to see can they do anything or otherwise I'll port it to a PAYG operator.

With Three PAYG, you don't even need to top up every so often to keep a SIM active. I have one that hasn't been topped up in a few years and it's still active. Best option is to just port that SIM out.

Your wrong.

A three sim dies if unused for 6 months

Same here! As long as some texts are sent to it from webtext even and a few incoming calls now and again it seems to stay active!!

I'm pretty sure that it's just unused credit that disappears after six months, but open to correction.

Yea but what are you doing on your phone that requires you to have 16Mbps download? Nothing i would imagine.

A lot of streaming so I would have settled on 5-10. 1 is just not acceptable.

Correct. If you don't make a chargeable use at least once every six months, your remaining credit is reduced to zero.

But your SIM remains active for incoming service indefinitely in my experience.

I thought exactly the same! Have an O2 SIM for years as well and never topped it up!

After porting, my voicemail won't work, says invalid no. Anyone have similar?

Happened me. 13 days later still trying to get them to sort it. Complaint lodged with comreg over them. Gomo couldn’t care less.

Did you get this sorted yet? I am three days now unable to receive calls or texts and they are more or less uncontactable! I have gotten onto Virgin Mobile to see if they can reverse the port.

I've not heard of one case of that being possible

Is there any way of engaging Gomo other than chat?

Their chat support must have said something!?

Their chat support was infuriating, they wanted the numbers, dates and times of when i couldn't receive calls or texts! in the end they have 'escalated it' but that will take a number of working days

I ported in minutes but my wife is set up for porting next week. Honestly I couldn't bear the grief I'd get if her number went awol...

It was me that added her number to my account. It would just something that would happen to her (me)

I've asked this but nobody seems to want to say!

Did your 2nd sim for your wife appear in your GoMo online account, as in, are both sims listed when you log into GoMo or do you have two online GoMo accounts?

Cuttlefish · 31-10-2019 04:11PM

Anyone having problem with gmail emails? every since I ported over last weekend having emails stuck in my outbox - never had this issue with Vodafone

Using mobile data and stuck in outbox turned on roaming and then were sent but never had to do this with Vodafone

also does anyone know how to check how much data you have used?

Yeah, happened to me. Just be patient, it will work eventually.

My parents registered both their numbers in one account and both numbers are showing in the account.

two numbers in the one account

5 family members have ported now without any major issues... My mother is now waiting for her Vodafone contract to expire (in the distant future), then she'll move over too.

Very impressed so far.

Not quite sure why people would be signing up this late in the month tbh, wait and sign up tomorrow and then your 9.99 activation fee covers you through to the 1st December.

Check your Gmail settings. Sounds like your outgoing server is wrong.

I'm watching this with interest as the offer seems too good to be true.

I'm on RTG at €20 a month and I'm reluctant to sign up to this offer, I can't incurr extra charges or avail of extra services outside my package, and I'm happy with that, my phone will only ever cost €20 a month.

The Gomo T&C's on the other hand have a few pages worth of extra charges that will arise when you avail of a service outside your plan, you dont seem to be prevented from doing so, as I am on RTG.

I'd be intersted in feedback in the future from anyone who has signed up and has had a few months worth of bills, to see if it's possible to avail of the service for €9.99 a month.

Max bill is €30. I think you can block premium numbers
