    That deal is long gone so it wouldn't be available to new customers.

    I'm not asking about the deal in the title of the thread.
    Just asking in general is there any advantages for existing customers to upgrade compared to new customers walking in off the street?

    Anyone recently upgraded? Have the prices got more realistic because I'm due an upgrade next month.

    Rang them yesterday as I got this deal for my son who is a student and the prices were the same as before Christmas. I was looking for an Iphone 5s was told it was 500 when I said it would be just as cheep to buy from apple and it would be sim free. The sales person on the phone told me we are expecting the price to drop in February. They really don't want people I think.

    I was given this price too and was told the price was higher as I was already getting such a discount on my monthly bill.

    I then questioned the sales person on the phone, saying that if I pay such a high price for the phone it offsets the discount to the point where its non-existent.

    She agreed with me - ridiculous sales policy

    Their upgrade prices for this plan are ridiculous - they're practically the sim free prices for most of the phones I want. There's no incentive to stay with eMobile anymore at all now. I'll be leaving them any day now.

    All I just wanted to let you know, I too am on the 34.50 emobile offer and was not too happy with the emobile upgrade. However I went to carphonewarehouse and was able to upgrade for 219 to iphone 5s. Much better than emobile direct

    I didn't get this impression talking to them. They didn't make any attempt to push another plan and encouraged me to ring again next month to see if prices had changed saying its a great plan and once you stay on it you have it for as long as you want etc.

    I tried carphone warehouse before christmas and was told the same as emobile, 500 euro for the 5s.

    My wife was offered a decent enough upgrade, but it did mean moving to a 40 quid a month plan from the 35 quid one.

    eMobile has given me the best value and service of any operator, so I'm loathe to leave them to get a decent cheap device elsewhere.


  • Registered Users Posts: 942 ✭✭✭kenyard


    emobile have the prepay unlimited everything for 24euro a month at the moment.
    thats the best out there imo.
    im with three and its 20 quid but only free calls on weekends so i end up running outta calls pretty fast and just left with texts/viber calls

    Good deal alright, but you have to have an Eircom phone to avail of it from what I can see....

    That is some deal.

    A 24 month contract?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,717 ✭✭✭polaris68


    The original €34.50 Emobile offer was for an 18 month contract.

    I recall (a few pages back) someone writing that the were able to get a reasonably priced upgrade on this plan from Carphone Warehouse soon after Emobile upped the prices of the phones.

    Be interested to hear if this was still possible.

    I tried Carphone warehouse but no joy, outrageous prices and crappy customer service from emobile means I have cancelled my contract and I am moving to Tesco PAYG, I have 3 months free 5 gb data per months and I will use my clubcard vouchers to top up the phone so I will have a free calls basically and I will put the 34.50 a month a side and buy sim free

  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭CurlyEng


    Thanks moped - which carphone warehouse store was that? Did you ask for anything on particular / is there some way of identifying the new deal you are on?


  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭CurlyEng


    P.s. What is your data on the package? 4G enabled?

  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭CurlyEng


    Thanks for the reply...

    Are you on the original 15GB data or is this back to 5GB?


  • Registered Users Posts: 727 ✭✭✭Moyglish

    Thanks for letting me know swampy353 - not a bad price at all!
    Did you get to keep the €34.50 plan for 18 months also?

    Carphone Warehouse quoted me €499 for it as well yesterday. Bugger!
