    I tried disabling premium calls/sms on the site but all options are greyed out. So I contacted them via the form on the site but no reply after 3 days.

    Does GoMo support roaming? I remember last year my phone wouldn’t work in Northern Ireland. It was a short visit so wasn’t an issue so didn’t even check if roaming on my phone was enabled.

    Going to France next week and will need the phone working. Just wondering if roaming enabled it will automatically switch over to local network or I need to request this with GoMo? Thanks

    It's been working perfectly on orange LTE for me for the last two weeks.


    The 13gb roaming data meant no Netflix/tv streaming, as I didn't want not to have maps or music in the car.

    Should work automatically, I'm in Serbia of all places and it's working perfectly, being outside the EU I'm getting charged per mb to a maximum of €30 which is ok. The missus is on VF and the service here is dreadful, she's PAYG and it's flying through her money for a barely usable service.

    Just came back from a week in France and it connected to LTE on the Orange network ok, but would frequently keep dropping back to 3G. A quick fix was was to turn flight mode on, wait for signal to drop, then turn off again and LTE would reconnect. Speed was ok but was poor for streaming TV to a device when used as a hotspot. Same issue with my Eir sim also.

    Anyone had an extremely long wait for a number to port over? Waiting over 10 days for a Vodafone sim to lose service and as the go mo sim isn't receiving calls or texts to the number

    It's working on 3 of the numbers I switched but one is not......

    Customer service is non existent



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Jeff2


    That's very strange as on week days it goes through with in a hour or 2.

    10 days I'd check if the sim is working. The number for the sim comes with it so phone that number.

    My data is a bit slower than usual, but nothing major. I can't help re phone calls or texts, haven't used the phone that way today, yet.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 392 ✭✭nihicib2


    just back there now, thankfully as we're all with go and wifi is Eir

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,978 ✭✭✭Heighway61


    Jesus h c, trying to pay property tax on revenue.ie and not receiving verification sms. Had the same problem before buying laptop from lenovo web site. How hard can it be.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,978 ✭✭✭Heighway61


    Anyone else have the verification SMS problem and had it fixed?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,410 ✭✭✭madmoe


    I have seen this at least once on a previous bill, where there was a short call to France made....I never made it! I don't know anyone in France to call FFS!?

    Have you checked the blocked messages folder on your phone?

    Is the activation fee covered by the 14 days cooling off period?

    Got the Gomo sim only plan. Sim arrived yesterday. After a few minutes we realised that the coverage is terrible in the house. About 10 minutes after installing the sim I got onto chat to cancel under the 14 days cooling off period. Today I got an email saying sim is cancelled from midnight tonight. They said that the €14.99 fee paid won't be refunded

    I couldn't find out about the useless coverage without activation. This is what the €14.99 is for. In the 10 minutes we had the sim in the phone we used no data, calls or text.

    Should they refund the activation fee under the distance selling period?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,978 ✭✭✭Heighway61


    Sorry, just seeing this now. Not in blocked folder.

    Anyone else has noticed that their data has dropped to 3G/H+ over the past week or so? I've never had problems before, but now it's happening very frequently throughout the day.

    I have still >80GB of data left, so that's not it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭Gooser14


    Can't say I've seen that in my location (North Tipp/Limerick) . In what area of the country are you experiencing this?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,978 ✭✭✭Heighway61




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭Gooser14


    Location would be useful.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 80,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    I was just on to them, I had to switch to another non-GoMo sim to get a connection, the chats with three different people got dropped at least 10 times. I was told there's a mast upgrade going on in my area, it should be completed by tonight, but I was told to try and switch off the phone for 10 mins and restart it to see would it connect to another mast. Here goes nothing.

    ...after a 30 minute wait time no doubt.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 80,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    No... it was only 10... and it didn't work. What a shocker. I also tried to toggle "airplane mode", which seems to be doing something different, but no joy. I guess it didn't switch to another mast, then. I guess the gale isn't helping, either.
