    I have a meteor dongle the last while and the 30 day pass stopped working after about 5 days and wiped my credit. Tried to sign in to meteor website which is an absolute nightmare & emailed them with no joy any ideas?

    Went over your 7.5GB limit?

    Thread moved to Midband.

    Hitting your limit would seem the most likely explanation. You won't be able to buy another 30 day pass until the current one expires too, this is the way Meteor operates.

    That is a load of bollox. If you use everything up in a week, you must wait another 3 weeks to get going again?

    Yep, only with Meteor. Their solution is that you buy 1 day passes until the end of the month passes!

    It because in reality a Mobile Network can't cope with lots of traffic.

    Also they are probably selling below or near cost and the assumption is that they are selling Mobile space on an under utilised network.

    None of the Mobile pricing makes sense if Voice is really paying for the network.

    2c per Mbyte = 2000c per Gigabyte = €20 per Gigabyte out of bundle. Some charge upto €820 per gigabyte.
