    O2 got the same carry on... Their unlimited Internet is temporary. None of them are keeping them going, like Three are.

    Three also won't confirm that they're keeping AYCE from July onwards as it's also an offer with an expiry date.

    As pointed out already TM are 5GB for €10 and its not a couple of months gimmick. Plus they are €1/GB on their PAYG broadband with the €15/15GB.

    If I use eircom's account number for emobile offer will this associate me personally with the actual eircom account?
    I'm just thinking what kind of effect it might have and if I can let's say put in completely different name, address etc. for the mobile plan? And keep it independent from the actual eircom service (also paid separately).

    Does anyone have any experience in buying a plan from emobile based on a friend's eircom account?

    Cheers

    Is this one not cheaper at only €24 per month on a 30 day sim only plan and its 4G
    I am sure if you know someone with an Eircom account that you could sign up via their account number as all it asks for is your account number and phone number when applying online

    Yeah can you do that do you know?
    I know nobody in my family or friends with them. God be with days when we were all eircom and there was no competition!

    I expected that also. All of the previous offers have had end-dates.

    Be nice if someone can actually check this out.

    I was talking to a meteor rep yesterday on the phone. He said that if I signed up now so mid month then you would get the limited unlimited data up until the 1st of May and then you get 1gb for all of May and the months after that.

    Tesco have a contract going using the O2 platform that will change things when this Three/O2 takeover happens.

    Part of the deal will require O2 to shift some assets (such as Tesco Mobile), so it might lead to the network being moved, which could lead to a limit/removal of data limits. It is not set in stone, but we can anticipate a sale of the Tesco Mobile license, either to another network, or in another capacity.

    Whats peoples opinion of the meteor network when it comes to mobile internet. I'm with Three and they were great to begin with but have become utterly appalling of late with a terrible connection. Would meteor be much the same or would it be worth switching?

    I would say that this is entirely based on where you live, commute to, bad work and the towers around you.
    I have an 02 work phone that has connection on par with Meteor (since I have started to speedtest) which is generally 1-4mb in rural north Kk.
    I have noticed that the type of phone is a big influence too. When testing on a nexus 4 and galaxy S3 and Moto get, the moto g was fastest with all on o2.
    People on here will tell you to get a sim and try it out in your area which is a great idea but the likes of Vodafone charge 20 euro to just get a sim. I got a free Tesco mobile sim to try out and is one of the reasons that I may switch to them having tested a cheap data bundle in my area.

    I rang up and cancelled my 30 day sim only plan with meteor. I had planned on switching to ready to go and getting the 7.5GB of data. Is there definitely an expiry day on this offer? It's ridiculous if so, all my friends and family have gotten countless texts and emails and all that for an offer that's only going to last 2-3 months? Seems like a waste of time on Meteor's part.

    I'll be annoyed after wasting my time on the phone to customer service for this waste of a deal.

    Spoke with a meteor rep today and I was told that sign ups to that data add-on will end on the date specified.

    However once you have signed up you will have unlimited data 'forever' or until you decide to opt out of that offer.

    Not so according to the terms and conditions:
    The ”Meteor Prepay Unlimited Add On” will expire in its entirety on August 31st 2014, at which stage the allowance contained within the bundle will revert to 1GB.

    Might be a cheap broadband option.

    Do you still have the €10 to spend on Meteor PAYG calls and texts, or does that just cover the data cost?

    I think this offer only applies to phone SIMS and not data one's.

    My reading on the offer from the above is that it is an automatically renewing bundle every 30 days of 7.5GB until the end of August after which it reverts to being an automatic 1GB bundle. So its not available 'for life'.

    Pretty crap really. TM did a 15GB of free data and 5000 texts offer with a €25 top-up last year. If you only topped up by €25 only once during the offer period, as I did, you do actually have it for life on your number as long as you do not move to another network or opt into another plan.

    Its a automatically recurring add-on so there is no possibility of getting another bundle in the 30 day period is my reading of it.

    I know that you could purchase an additional 1GB add-on before this 7.5GB offer arrived, by cancelling the monthly subscription and signing up again, so I'm 99% sure this will work exactly the same.
