Best 4G/5G in Cork

masterboy123

Hello,

I am with prepaid Tesco sim only plan, but hardly getting any 3G mobile internet in Cork.

Anyone could recommend a 4G service? Budget is €15/month. Looking for unlimited calls and unlimited data please.

Thanks

I'm with GoMo and find the reception great in the city. Haven't tried outside of it though.

I will check their website now.

Is it easy enough to switch providers while keeping the same mobile number?

Yes, it is. There is a thread on GoMo here:

It's €15pm, rolling 30 day contract AFAIK, so you're not tied to it.

The network is on Eir, so the coverage should be the same. They are a low cost service, as they have limited or no support (I think? someone might correct me here, I never had a problem with them) or physical stores.

Thanks so much for sharing this info.

Is the mobile internet speed good enough to make phone calls via whatsapp?

It is for me, in the city centre.

I get 25.9 Mbps download, 25.2 Mbps upload.

I've using GoMo for broadband & phone (two SIMs) in the city centre, haven't done a speed test in a while but was normally well over 30 Mbps download. Ballincollig was the fastest I ever saw where it touched 200Mb!

So alot of positive comments about GoMo.

Anyone using Clear Mobile?

No problem with Eir around Cork City on 4G, even better again on 5G.
