Is there anything I can do to speed it up ,is there any other settings I need to change? or just sit tight ? thanks in advance for any tips.

I saw people earlier saying they were charged to activate imessage, maybe its that? The sim was put in an iphone but I dont remember having to activate imessage. Look its only 6 cents but I`m always wary when there are charges that I dont know what they are.

I am going to make a complain to ComReg about this incident and also complained to complaints@gomo.ie

mendo wrote: » Guys, please make sure that your account has all the premium SMS and premium call services blocked. I have deactivated the Premium SMS and calls by sending the PRSMSBAR SMS to 50104, the day my number was activated the 24th of October, yet I was charged for Premium SMS on the 31st of October.

I didn’t select a Network, when you go to Port your number, their system selects the Network they think you’re on and it doesn’t give you any option to change the Network. I’ve tried porting several times, trying all options, but with the same results. I have also messaged Gomo, but I haven’t received a reply yet. Any suggestions?

"Roaming Outside the EU To be honest, it might be best you steer clear of roaming outside the EU with GoMo. This is a no-frills network and roaming outside the EU is certainly a frill for them. If you want to use data in the United States, it’s charged at €4.99 per MB. That’s over five thousand euro for one GB of data in the States."

This is a new initiative from ComReg:https://www.comreg.ie//ngnreview They will have to be used from your bundled minutes & and beyond your bundle they will have to cost the same as a national call... which is unlikely to ever happen considering you get more minutes than there are in a month...
