yes happened to me and the missus a couple of times a week, but since I changed the APN settings to 48months.liffeytelecom.com its been perfect

check your APN as mine was set to tescomobile.liffeytelecom.com

There's a few more settings to change. Go on to the 48.ie for full rundown

I had the the same issue until I did the complete change and reboot phone.

Anyone have an issue with receiving verify by visa texts? I tried to purchase online but never received the texts. I've contacted the bank and they confirmed that the texts were sent and likely to be an issue with mobile phone provider. Strange one.

Aib login verification usually takes 2 or more resend before coming through.

I had this before. It's because when I ported to 48, something went wrong and the database that stores information, about your current network, called the Home Location Register, was saying I was still connected to my old network.
I ported to Eir, and then back to 48 and that fixed it.

I tried going through 48 but they denied it was their fault and just said the port went to plan and that my bank was using an unsupported SMS provider. It wasn't just my bank though, it was Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, anything that I have two-factor authentication set up on.

I think there were a few folk on here who switched from Virgin Media after their €5 per month per expired...
Anyway...
ITS BACK!...

Has anyone noticed their auto-renew membership didn't work?

It's giving me a message saying "Unfortunately you don't have a membership" and auto renew is switched off,
but previously it's been auto renewing since I signed up last year.
Not sure why its cancelled.

Clearly a bug in the system. My mother didn't pay membership for 5 months and she had auto renew set up. They've fixed it now.ahe got 5 months free

Yes you can port her number later. Also PM'd you.

Is her phone network unlocked? I ordered one for my wife’s only to realize it’s network locked.

it is luckily enough!

Yeah I had lots of issues with no service and calls going to voicemails. Sometimes people got a message that the number doesn't exist.

I ended up moving for Eir for €9.99 unlimited calls and data by bundling it with my home broadband.

Coverage and calls are rock solid now with wifi calling and 4G Calling (VoLTE).

4G speeds not as fast with Eir but for normal use.

Thanks. I've had no issues all along (that I know of), with them since September last year and this is the first time anyone mentioned it. Would hate to have to move from them, as the prices on other networks all seem to have gone up. I don't mind compromising on data speeds or even a cap on minutes/texts, but I don't think it's too much to ask to expect that calls would get through to me.

Try it on 3G only mode and test a few incoming calls.

Calls don't work on 4G (VoLTE not supported by 48) so there might be a glitch somewhere causing the signal for an incoming call to be mishandled from the network side.

Is anyone still having trouble with calls not coming through? I remember some posters mentioning this a while back.

Just this week I've had a couple of people say they tried to phone me, no missed calls and phone beside me and definitely didn't ring. Was there any solution for it?

I have had terrible trouble with this problem with Tesco mobile (also on 3 network) tried a new sim card, and then a new phone. Still happened. Just moved to virgin mobile, have had their sim for a couple of weeks now and it has not happened at all. My tesco sim lost service 5 times yesterday that I know of. A new low, and so frustrating.

just ported from vodafone to 48 this evening and I can make calls and receive texts but cannot receive calls.

Probably not fully ported, see if it sorts itself out by tomorrow, if not then try 48 support again.

Got that even though auto renew had been working for a while, logged in and had to enter card details again even though it should have been already set up. In theory it's working again, won't know for another month!

Might be something to do with PSD2 and SCA which could possibly have required recurring card payments to be re-entered after a certain date.
