    My understanding is that you can't successfully port while your account order is still showing "in progress"

    My account still showing "in progress" eventhough I ported yesterday in a few minutes

    Dial 171. Record your greeting and its created

    I just set up a greeting. There are a lot of menus in it.
    Do you choose between having a default message with your recorded name in this message or having your own bespoke greeting?
    Also what is call catcher? I didn't set that up.

    I ordered my sim on 15th, it arrived 2 days later.

    Was scheduled to switch this morning and did no problem at all. Kept old number working grand, literally just put new sim in and tat was it.

    Although it still says 'in progress' online even though I've received text to say everything has changed

    Ordered 2 sims on 22nd, arrived 25th, I updated port date to 10:00 today. At 10:07 both phones got messages from Three that numbers were cleared to port, inserted new sims, data is working but both numbers can't make/receive calls!

    That's some quick delivery you got, are they picking them at random or what

    My order shows as in progress and I'm fully switched as per this morning.

    I ported last Monday and mine still says in progress, I wouldn’t worry to much about it, if everything is working as it should I’d say just forget about it.

    You leave the old sim in and wait till it shows Emergency Calls only then switch to the new one

    Ported 3 numbers from VM since Thursday, no issues to note.
    Internet seems to be better at my home location.

    No need to put the GoMo SIM in until the port is complete but you can if you want.

    They throttle until the start of your next billing period which is the 1st of each month.

    And definitely no out of bundle data charges?

    No, but I'd imagine if you were to totally tear the ass out of it they could/would apply the fair usage rule.

    ... and I suppose they have no min/max speeds advertised, so you can't complain when you get slow internet?

    For the price I got one to see. It's a useful backup and it is incredibly cheap. But I am getting consistently less than 1Mbit in basically Dublin city centre.

    I hope for their sake they protected the Eir proper network and just allow the GoMo APN a certain percent.

    I'm paying Vodafone €45 for 50Gb so it is many times the cost, but the difference is stunning.

    Ordered 19th and got welcome email last night.

    Sim card numbers have appeared on the website but they're not my numbers so I'm assuming that they'll port over.

    How long have people waited for their sims once the above has happened?

    Is there a particular APN to use?

    Whenever I lose connection the only way to get it back is to restart my phone. Even disabling and reenabling mobile data won't sort it.

    No idea why this is happening. So far the internet is spotty and cannot be compared to the Eir network. I'll probably cancel soon and stick with eir

    Lads could someone who understands this stuff tell me if porting is automated or must a person physically do something to initiate it. Sorry if it's a stupid question

    Internet is actually faster than Eir getting 101mb download in Cabra can't complain about that.

    Definitely recommend GoMo, the marketing might be cringeworthy with teenagers with garish clothes and ridiculous music but the actual service so far is grand, and other networks will undoubtedly suffer because of this great offer.

    You must physically do something to initiate it.

    Go to your GoMo on-line account and choose the option to "Move my number"

    Gomo will initiate it (eventually:rolleyes:). Keep using your current sim, and when you lose service just replace it with the new sim.

    Thanks. If I was to contact 3 (my current provider) would they know if a port is in progress on my number. All gomo can say is more than likely it is and should go through eventually.

    Bear in mind that their customer service agents have reduced themselves to shrugging and saying "computer sez dunno" in reply to any query.
