Are you sure it's no data roaming is included. I enquired about this today in store and was told free eu roaming was included.

None according to their website, no EU roaming on prepay but it is on the sim only plans. They are having a sale on both atm.

Well their instore and online deals could be different. There's no mention at all of it being included or not in the terms and conditions of the instore offer.

I assume it is subject to the same rules though as it is basically just a price reduction on an existing bundle? I had to put some credit on to set up my voicemail so I'll try it in London and report back.

I dropped into a store to enquire about this offer, and seen a poster advertising EirMobile Advantage Mobile, Unlimited Sim Only 30 day rolling contract,
Offers unlimited landline/mobile calls,
Unlimited any network texts,
15gb of national data,
1500 minutes to the uk,
1500 roaming minutes (uk,eu & USA)
1gb of roaming data (U.K.,eu & usa)
All for €20 ex Vat (was €30 ex vat)
It's a business plan but I was informed no vat no. is required.
Seems like a good offer.

Is this supposed to be available in all B&M shops?

I rang my local and they hadn't a clue about it.

Thanks

damon5 · 26-03-2017 5:03pm

I went into two meteor shops today and they said there is no deals going on with the 30 euro prepay simplicity plan being available for 20 euro in the shops.Was told i could get the sim only 30 day contract Super extra4G that is the same but also has the FREE eu roaming for 25 euro a month,checked the small print and it said that price was for 6 months so wondering is the price going to rise after.

glic83 · 26-03-2017 5:16pm

The one on offer at 25 euro pm is for 12 months then goes to 30 euro. The sim only plan on offer for 20 euro is that price for 6 months and then goes up to 25 euro to the best of my knowledge

Lucas Hood · 26-03-2017 6:15pm

Signed up for this today. If the staff don't know about it have a look at the TV's in the shop they're displaying the offer and show them it.

Guy in shop said it was 20 for the first month then it would be 30 after that.

DopeTech · 26-03-2017 7:06pm

Too much conflicting information on this offer so I have set up a thread in the talk to meteor forum. Hopefully we will be better informed tomorrow.

If only i would have had that link today when in the meteor shop,the employee was having none of it .....

torrevieja · 27-03-2017 1:39am

I was talking to a guy last night who works in Meteor and he told me that offer was for life so much so i went to his shop today and signed up .

But my question would be if this is true is it just a matter of topping up by 20 every month and if you do it online it says : Don't forget to choose your top up deal before you top up. but if that deal is not there to choose what do u do ?

Thephantomsmask · 27-03-2017 8:05am

FrostyJim - I'm currently roaming on EE. It is being charged alright, though I did get several hours of free 4G data before they gave me a sign in pop up to accept data roaming charges

Three PAYG is changing to top up every 28 days and no more unlimited weekend minutes from April 3rd. Three like home is also going, instead there is a 1 gig allowance in Europe.

But what does that clarify? It doesn't mention how long you will get the discount for or data roaming or if it's available in all stores or only selected ones.

I was told in store that it included eu data roaming, Emma from talk to meteor tells me it doesn't. One person was told the deal is for life, another told its only the first month. Emma from meteor dodged the question. And whether it should be available nationwide or just selected stores should be information that a "Talk to meteor" forum can answer. Seems not.

They really don't do themselves any favours with customer support like that.

damon5 · 27-03-2017 7:50pm

Have their brochure phone mag in front of me and the simplicity prepay plans dont have free EU roaming the SIM only plans 30 day plans have it,i too would like to know how long the deal is for and when will they pull the plug ...
