Did anyone who pre-ordered online with meteor recieve their contract? I signed up on tuesday and still not had anything other than the conformation email. Even if it comes tomorrow by the time I send it back I prob wont get the phone till the end of next week.. :mad:

Also, would they let me sign up inshop tomorrow if I've already signed up online..

Ya I received the contract by email today. Had a call from them within 5 minutes to ask if I'd received it (spam problems with gmail apparently) and was also told that if I returned it signed with a scan of my license and proof of address before 5pm that I'd get a fiver off my first bill.

They also confirmed that I'd have it tomorrow.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. They cannot ship it until tomorrow because of the release date so unless they are using a bike courier expect it Tuesday. I would be shocked, aka eat my hat, if you get it tomorrow.(short of walking to a shop)

Most courier companies charge a premium for Saturday deliveries so senders do not approve Saturday deliveries unless the buyer pays.

An Post then only deliver on Saturdays in November/December.

My Vodafone 3GS was delivered by An Post.

I bought a sandwich for lunch today for only €4. Much cheaper than an iPhone and I didn't have to wait till tomorrow.

I got a second hand sandwich on Adverts for €2. Perfect condition, still in its box. You're a mug paying €4.

Danbo!

Just ordered from 3, 16gb white, meant to select black, damn it! Sales are closed til 9am so gotta call then and see if they'll do an aul switcheroo on the order. Does anyone know the craic with the contract, do they send it out first, I sign it and send it back then they send the phone?

Meteor's does so i assume its fine...

What would day about the Meteor/Emobile network is that when you have 3G, its probably faster than all of the others, and even when it drops off 3G, you go down to EDGE which is a lot better than the GPRS of the other networks, namely vodafone. Put simply, i've never had any issues with meteors coverage and their 3G coverage is improving noticeably all the time..

thanks, been checking the maps and corks coverage does look ok.

Ok, I tried to do a quick round up of what's on offer out there. LOTS of variance! I looked for a 32Gb iPhone 4s on all networks but only looked at plans within about a €50 pm budget.

emobile:
Select 300 - €59 per month* - 2 yr contract
Free iPhone
300 mins
300 txts
3GB of data
Free calls to landlines
*price for existing Eircom customers. €64 per month for non-eircom customers.

Meteor:
€50 per month - 2 yr contract
Free iPhone
200 mins
200 txts
5 GB of Data

3
Classic Flex Max - €40 per month - 2 yrs contract
iPhone - €239
350 Flexi Units
Unlimited Data

Super Flex Max - €60 per month - 2 yrs contract
iPhone - €139
650 Flexi Units
Unlimited Data

O2
€40 per month - 2 yr contract
iPhone - couldn't find price just "from €199"
250 mins
250 txts
150mb of Data

€60 per month - 2 yr contract
iPhone - couldn't find price just "from €199"
400 mins
400 txts
700mb of Data


Looks like O2 isn't even in the running really..... In my opinion.
The other things you need to be looking at are Roaming costs, charges for Voicemail, flexibility with tarriffs..........

Of course, nothing yet from Vodafone.:rolleyes:



(I have to say, no matter how much people rant about Vodafone's website, O2's is an absolute NIGHTMARE to use - so hard to find anything!)

3 have the 32GB & 64GB too

Yeah, apologies, when I clicked on the banner ad it just took me to the 16gb and I didn't see how to change it. I've seen the other phones now and adjusted prices above...

O2 is a truly awful network to have a smartphone with.

Just ordered the 32gb with Three.

139 up front (with €30 back on Fat Cheese) and 24 month contract (ouch). Anybody have any ideas on delivery times from Three? I checked the track order information but nothing concrete there...

Good chance I'll jump from Three to Meteor for a free 32gb,contract with Three is up in March,are these Meteor prices just for the inital launch?
Hardly going to just keep giving away iphone 4s even if they are 24 month contracts,are they?

Also,do Meteor allow (for free) tethering?
I have a wifi only ipad and Three allow it,which is fairly handy.

There is 3gb allowance on iPhone.

I'm thinking of going with the 45/month Meteor offer.

My question is as follows: I currently have an iPod that I bought in early 2010. My iPod music library is linked to my PC, including all of the songs I bought from ITunes.

If I buy the iPhone 4s from Meteor, will I be able to transfer all of the songs from my iPod to the iPhone problem-free?

You probably won't have that until tuesday or wednesday the same goes for anyone who ordered over the phone or online from any network. It's a bank holiday so nothing will be delivered saturday, sunday or monday.
You could get one in a shop today but you'll probably be declined or hit with a deposit as you already have a previous order pending. You could try though it would't do any harm.
