Anyone switch to Sky mobile yet?

There';s a whole other thread on this - https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2058367294/sky-mobile-coming-to-ireland

Is that what it is? I find I’m getting thrown on EDGE even if I’m not on a call. Like if I’m in a shop or something where I used to have perfect 5G with Vodafone I will only get EDGE. It takes ages for 5G to come back if at all. Normally I have to reboot the phone or the toggle airplane mode. Still, it’s only €15 a month versus like €67 I was paying Vodafone

Agreed 100%. I ordered SKY Mobile on Tuesday. Sims for 2 accounts (of 4 ordered) arrived yesterday. One was for a new account, the other was porting an existing number with Virgin. I activated these 2 sims last night. Alarm bell #1 went off when my existing number didn't port. I had a new 089 number. Then, I started to dig a little deeper. I live in an urban area and work in a rural area. The differences in speeds between Sky and VM are stark. At work, (old building out in countryside) internal download speeds with Sky of 12.0Mbps and by window 9.1Mbps. Upload speeds of 0.05Mbps & 0.19Mbps. Comparatively, VM download speeds of 27.1Mbps internal 73.6Mbps by window. Upload speeds of 3.19Mbps & 3.24 Mbps. Network coverage on way to work was erratic with Sky. dropping out frequently whereas VM was consistent with no issues. These are not like for like services. Cancelled the Sky accounts this morning within the 14 day cooling off period. Charged 50c for each account! This for a service i have cancelled within 12 hours of activating (7 hours of which was spent asleep!). They will take that by DD. Also concerned with reports of Sky network not receiving 2FA texts. I would advise, if you are content with your current provider, stay put. Fingers crossed now that the port request doesn't happen after the fact. VM have told me there is a port in progress on my original number. Sky has told me (via call centre in India) that there is no port request active. I'm concerned but VM have promised to keep me updated.
