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.

Just received notification of my first bill, checked in my account and it's €9.99 as expected.

Happy camper!

I ordered on the 16th as well. sent them another facebook message this morning. I'll see if i get a response. I do have a chat window open but no luck so far getting someone on that.

At least if we receive our sims soon we will get nearly the full month before our 1st bill.

My sim just arrived and like the others who received it today its not active. Hopefully it won't be too long before its activated.

Anyone managed to sign with Revolut card?

Getting the same error every time I am trying: An error occurred, please try again in a few minutes

A quick search reveals that this question has been asked to the death.

Well in my case I tried with both Revolut Visa and MasterCard number of times without any success.

Finally gave up and used Irish bank card.

Thanks, but not showing up on the “Our Plan” page, or any page for me. I suspect this is done intentionally, due to the over demand for support.

I've done a screenshot of the logged in GoMo welcome page, chat comes up on the right hand side. It's been there any time I've gone on. I'm using Chrome

and once it works, you don't need to contact CS ever again.

What I can't understand is that it is a subsidiary of eir that is managing gomo. Not as if it is a new company with no telecom experience starting up in the market. There should be no teething problems if they use a well established framework. Arguments here like 'sure it's only 10 quid or demand was in precedented' just don't add up. Surely in setting up this company they would anticipated the demand at 10 euro a month.

Never underestimate peoples' incompetence. Eir didnt exactly have a glowing reputation when it came to customer service before this. My guess is that they totally overestimated their ability to process all the applications from new subscribers, probably because they didnt commit enough staff to the project. Be mindful too that when you port a number, the slowest part of the process is the amount of time it takes for the original network to release the number. If vodafone are tardy (even by a few hours) then it elongates the entire process. Then throw in the time it takes to receive a new sim and the general lack of communication from GOMO about the status of the port and the registration process, multiply this by 1000s of customers all at the same time and you have an omnishambles.

Logged in with Chrome, i get the chat option.
Not logged in with Internet Explorer, i get the chat option.

Dont think it is them.
Tried a different pc, browser, phone, whatever?

Fair enough. Good luck keeping their customer base.

They will do just fine especially if the price is right. The current telecommunications companies tactics is to keep customers, even disgruntled ones to switch back as some point thanks to a new offer.
This seems to be working as these companies are doing just fine when it comes to profit margins.
Customer service is the last thing most people think about when they switch.

How is there no service on your eir sim? They won't start any porting until you account is active which can't happen prior to you receiving your SIM card.

Definitely not the case lawred2, looks like they're porting away regardless.

So my sim just arrived in the post (No text or email to say it was coming) , yet there's no number associated with my account when I login ?

That's the problem that I had with my first sim. After 48 hours I got them to send a replacement sim but my first sim started working a few hours later.
So best to just wait and hopefully it won't take too long more.

Just ported there. Took but a few mins. Sms, calls, and internet working - between 30 and 50Mb down and 20-30Mb up on 4G....chuffed!

I'd say if you're concerned about 'prematurely porting', just don't put in the request until you get your SIM in your hand.

+1 on this

2 of us here with freshly ported numbers and no SIMs :mad:

Next available custom representative will be with you shortly (20 minutes so far)

Quick question on changing sims..... would I lose all my WhatsApp conversation etc??? What about my pictures etc.....

What should I do to save my pictures.... I have some special ones I don’t want lost

If you keep the same number whatsapp will be fine just run a manual backup to be sure.

Make sure all your pictures are on goggle photo or icloud.

You only read the ones that have problems. The easy peasy ones dont al post here that it was easy.

And i have no doubt that from quite a few of the ones that do have a problem, the problem lies between chair and touch screen.

Yep, out of the 4 changes I have seen in person, only one of them got messed up. Generally there is no problems

If my port is stuck "in progress", and my old number is already deactivated "invalid number when called", will cancelling the port just mess this up even further? Will the number be lost in purgatory then? Going on to 4 days waiting now and the support aren't doing anything, on Tuesday they said I would receive an email within 24 hours, said the same thing on Wednesday, but still nothing

100% agree with you on this

I just find they're very quick to push the blame back to 3rd parties i.e. the customer and the carrier, neither of whom have any control over it.

I mean if they can give Siri an Irish accent and have their HQ based in Cork, they can get an Irish inbound SMS number for iCloud activation! It's not beyond their capabilities.

To be quite honest, that's really an Apple issue rather than a network one. Apple should have an Irish-based activation number or a 50XXX (free of charge) number. The fact that your iPhone sends silent international SMS messages and charges you is entirely Apple's issue and they should refund you the cost.

100% agree with you on this
