    Very strange, I definitely can’t call 48 customers anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭Cork981


    Same here, can’t receive calls from Gomo or Eir family members.

    I got sick of getting call catcher texts but no missed calls etc. I'm moving from them too.

    Everyone (almost) blaming GoMo for the problem.
    Why?
    With only TescoMobile and 48 being affected the fault would seem to be with their networks, a.k.a. Three.


  • Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 9,295 Mod ✭✭✭✭Aquos76


    Three were definitely having problems all weekend, I am with GoMo and wife is with three, I upgraded my iPhone on Friday and gave my wife my old Xs max, since Friday evening we could not activate her iMessage with three, spent over an hour on the phone to apple yesterday, also on the phone to 3. I tried various other sims in the phone, Gomo, 48, and Eir and all activated no problem. 3 even got me to try a new sim which we did, still no joy, back on the phone to apple again this morning. They are totally baffled by it. I decided to port her from 3 to GoMo this morning and once port completed i put sim in her phone and iMessage activated immediately.

    Two stories while roaming
      I was not able to use mobile data for 2 days, checked all the settngs (I thought) and eventually saw that I had disabled mobile data to test the broadband to the house Two days chasing GoMo for an issue that was not theirs - Ouch
    • Still roaming, I was not able to call certain numbers on certain networks in Ireland - eventually found that I had Caller ID set to Do not send own number on my phone. I then realized that some Irish networks reject calls when they do not receive the caller's number. Also there is a setting on some phones to reject calls when the called phone does not receive the caller's number

    Neither issue was GoMo's fault though at the time I thought it was.

    Never had a real issue with GoMo that we did not resolve quickly.

    Anyone know if I switch from GoMo to Eir, will the signal quality/strength be the same?

    Was in ratoath Co.Meath today and said to do a Speedtest on Gomo 4g,

    I got 260Mbps down and 30.2 up.

    That’s some download speed....

    That shows that there's plenty of room left in 4G+ to suit most people without having to buy a 5G handset until the prices approach more affordable levels.

    I've seen 200Mbps + in Ballincollig in Co. Cork, too bad I can't get that even a third of that in Cork city.

    How much out of the 80gb data can be used roaming in the EU?

    It's the EE network in London, a poor network. ( which I realize will not be considered EU on 1 / 1/21).

    DID anybody hear the CEO of eir say/ boast on RTÉ only 10 staff on customer support for 250k go mo customers..

    1) 10GB

    2) Not sure about London but used in the North West and found it great. All urban usage with no travelling however.

    3) Yep. Makes sense when they have no phones and just chat screens that they can close when they hit a brick wall with you. It's a barebones operation.

    Guys is there any way to contact GOMO other than filling out the online form? I've sent 5 forms over the last 2 months and every time their answer hasn't fixed my issue, I need to speak with someone who can actually understand what my problem is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 245 ✭✭jdon72


    I was with GoMo for about a year on the €9.99 plan but swapped over to 48 this month, but that has gotten awful slow for data. Has anyone managed to get back onto GoMo with their original price?

    You're only other option is log in to your account and use the webchat.

    I’d say you’ll do well to get back on to it. Not quite sure why anyone would move for the sake of €2 unless of course you weren’t happy with their service.

    Messenger on facebook is the best option. Web chat not helpful.

    Gomo should be called goslow. Battling with it now the last 2 months, use it solely for data so i logged into my modem and it has a 25% signal strength. Also bottoms out at 80gigs each month. Ive irdered a 48 sim, more data, cheaper and if it works itll be goaway for gomo. very disappointed.

    Its actually 120GB a month these days and I find it really good. Can't argue with it for a tenner a month.

    Oh is go mo now offering 120GB for those on the9.99plan. Please forgive my ignorance as thought it was 80gb in ROI and 10GB EU Roaming.

    Does any one know roaming in England on 1/1/21 +?

    I'm very happy with GoMo - 68Mbps down and 18 Mbps up on one side of the house and 80 down and 9 up on the other side. I guess it depends on where you are in relation to the eir mobile network.

    Last month I made 300 minutes of roaming calls for €9.99 - on my other network PAYG network (3) the charge would have been €150 at 50 cent per minute.

    Have to agree, my data speeds not great at home (quite rural), but have seperate home WiFi, speeds on gomo in town, more built up areas excellent and call signal despite my rural location, perfectly fine, at €9.99 pm, a steal.

    Just a question if I may, you mentioned roaming calls? I thought my package which seems to be the same as yours is unlimited call, texts in Ireland and 80gb data, wasn't aware there was roaming calls?

    Is maith an scáthán súil charad.

    Has anyone had any problems with GOMO recently? Everything was working fine for me up until last Friday and have had no connectivity at all since then, literally nothing.
