48.ie - All data, calls, text (4 weeks plan) for €6.50 for the first 3 plans and €12.99 thereafter

I'm looking to port over to 48 from Tesco 20euro a month , anything i need to know.

Is it true you cant text 50XXX numbers, Wont be moving is thats the case, thats every competition text line going.

The roaming issue doesn't really bother. The odd UK or EU trip is all I do.

Can someone advise me on the most up to date settings for roaming in Lanzarote? We're due to go soon and my son is with 48. We were in London at Easter and he had no service.....despite me getting onto live chat on my phone and changing settings a few times. Still didn't work,very disappointing so I'd like his phone to actual be able to work while we're away. Thanks in advance.

Only comment I can make is that the settings are listed in the 48 Community.Copy them out.Each time the settings fail to save or register take out battery and sim card and try again.I have no problem with Northern Ireland,rest of UK,Canary Islands,France,West Africa,Mid East,Asia,Sth America,West coast of US

take out battery? Not sure what phone you have but taking battery out isn’t an option on most.

48.ie is great most of the time in Ireland, but outside Ireland, it's a disaster. If you know how to get roaming and data working, it isn't too bad, but this is only because it has happened every time I've been in a different country. For new users, it will be even more difficult as they will have no internet.

I would not recommend it to anyone because of this.

Any time I've been in London roaming has never worked but in other parts of the UK it has, does your son have a sim toolkit app on his phone?

Just checked and mine is set to that but I've struggled to get data at times when abroad.

Has anyone got the survey from 48? Link stopped working after the first set of questions second part has a strange set of questions for a mobile company to be asking, just wondering if it was the same for everyone.

Only thing I've noticed with 48 is that I never a roaming text no matter which country I'm in.

Lucky for some!

Until they sort out text 5XXXX numbers I won't be moving.

I don’t know why they don’t have this.

I never have anyproblen when I go to Spain or other European countries. Both data and calling works perfectly without any adjustments from me.

For some reason the problem starts when I get home when my Access point defaults to Tesco Mobile. When I change it back to Liffey Telecom, it works perfectly. I checked my phone about 10 minutes before landing last week and my Access point was Liffey Telecom. As soon as the plane touched down and it had changed to Tesco.

I have now deleted Tesco from my choices of Access points, but even if it does reinstall Tesco, so long as I know the problem, and can fix it easily, it's fine.

48 just doesn't work for me in the UK or N. Irl. Never has.

mainland?

I just noticed that there's a tesco mobile setting in my APN as well as the 48 one, no idea how it got there, should I delete that?
