GoMo FAQs

Yes absolutely. Limited, but there's smatterings of it around. I dont find the speeds much faster then 4G+ but they are consistent/stable over the speed test (about 100Mbps).

Same here, I have seen it many time in Clondalkin and around various places in the city.

I have contacted gomo about this but I have got no response yet to the following query.

I had two numbers on the same account, I have transferred one to Vodafone, will this be reflected on my monthly bill or have I to do something to reduce my bill by €9.99 per month?

Anyone know the answer to this question??

Yep, have this all the time, it's why I'm leaving, they are throttling, may complain to comreg

I have seen no evidence of any throttling except for those who exceed the 80GB limit.

Low speeds are most likely down to too many customers on a particular cell. Each cell/tower/link/trunk connection has a set limit that has to be shared amongst all users, add more customers and everyone gets a smaller share of the bandwith, simple as. Wth so many in Ireland heavily using cell data as an alternative to non-existent or expensive wired broadband poor speeds due to contention is widespread.

There has been a major improvement in indoor speeds all week.
Since lockdown started most of the time even on 4g it was crawling and most of the time would switch to H.
Now I'm getting at least 25mb download all the time allover the house.
Before lockdown the very max inside the house was 15mb
Hope this keeps up.
Something is definitely after changing.
36mb indoors right now

Did you always have the 4G+ icon in your top status before or just 4G?
4G+ can definitely give speeds a boost.

They do seem to be rolling it out gradually but it's fairly sparse on Eir's network in comparison to both Vodafone and 3.

Silly question but what does multiconnection mean and why are Meteor and Vodafone mentioned there?

Meteor is gomo and Vodafone was ther server I was testing the speed to. The multi connection is the default and if I was connected to a VPN I'd chose the single connection test.

I thought Eir was GoMo? And Meteor was 3?

No meteor was eir but they got rid of the brand. Just like emobile was eir until they dumped that brand too. P&T, Telecom eireann, eircom, eir...they like their rebrands. GoMo is an eir brand too.

Can someone help - I am trying to update payment details for my wife - can't log in as it says it needs to send a verification email. Click on verification email and it brings me back to "we've send a verification code" and goes round and round like this.

Tried contact us page and it won't accept any date of birth format whatsoever.

Sent an email to support and they responded a few days later with "contact us via webchat" - but I can't contact via webchat unless I am logged in - and I can't log in.

At this point I think I will just switch her to another network.

:mad:

The date format thing on the 'contact us' webpage is a problem they've known about since day one but can't be bothered to fix. It's down to the script kiddies they hired to build their website not doing any cross-browser checks before launch and I suspect there's no actual web support in-house. It only affects certain browsers, mainly Safari on mac/ios. If you can use a Firefox browser it should work fine.

My contract is up with Eir in two weeks times so thinking of going over to GoMo and saving €27.00 a month.

If I want keep my number do I just get the code and then purchase the plan and pick a date?

Also whats the general consensus?

Order the sim, which will come with a temporary number. When you receive the sim log in to gomo account and set up porting of your number at a time and date of your choosing. I find it absolutely fine. Not a minute or data cruncher however.

Like I say to everyone, try it for a month or two without porting. If you're happy, port your number; if not, cancel it and you'd still have your old number. That said, 48 are doing a similar offer with 100GB data for €7.99, at the moment.

How does one get that deal...curious ;-)

Ported from gomo to 48. Saving €2 per month and data speed is honestly 4-5 times what I was getting in Dublin 18 with gomo.

48 is getting more and more tempting! I am in Clondalkin, beside the Ibis hotel\N7 junction and the speeds have gone to pot here at home the past few weeks on GoMo! Both on my phone and when connected to my Huawei router with a second GoMo SIM in it! :mad::mad::mad:
