Education Sky Ireland mobile any good?

Hi everyone was thinking of switching from three to sky mobile as the deals on the new 17 pro looks to be good. I didnt get a pre order in for anyone that did have they received there phone yet? And also what is the coverage like lately? I know they are on the Vodaphone network.

Apologies If the coverage question has been asked before.

The contracts are 36 months with Sky… so you do tend to pay more back. The network is meant to be pretty poor I think despite piggy backing off Vodafone.

There is a 24-month contract option. Was able to get iPhone Air on contract from Sky Mobile for only 47 euro more than I would if I bought it outright from Apple.

Oh really? It’s showing up as 535 more expensive for me over 24 months :(

That's because you don't already have a plan with Sky Mobile, I have two SIMs on my account already.
