How to contact us
The best way to contact us is through the Moblox website or the Moblox mobile application (Moblox App) chat function. You can also contact us by email at support@moblox.com. You can even call us on 033 3303 0012, these calls are free from your Moblox Subscription.
Your Moblox Mobile Subscription
Your Moblox Mobile Plan starts from the day you activate your SIM on the Moblox website. SIMs are normally delivered within 1-3 days of your order, but please let us know if your SIM doesn’t arrive.
When you choose your Moblox Mobile Plan and set up your Subscription you will need to set up a payment method for your monthly payment. You can change your payment method on the Moblox Website.
During the setup of your Subscription, Moblox will conduct an identity check. We conduct a credit header check as part of this process. This is purely a soft check against the database for Identity purposes, and will have no impact on the customer’s credit rating or history. The description in the customer’s credit file will appear as ‘Identity’.
Additional fees apply to any usage outside of your Moblox Plan (for example if you make international calls). There is a clear explanation of what is included and what is extra on the Moblox website https://moblox.com/mobile/plans in the Plan Details section. You can find the additional fees at https://moblox.com/mobile/charges
All Subscriptions and charges can be seen and managed through the Moblox website in the MyServices section https://moblox.com/management/my-services or in the Moblox App. The MySerivces section of the website also allows you to view your bills and payments. The price of your Moblox Mobile Plan will be shown in the MyServices section of the website. If your payments are late or overdue we may cancel your plan with immediate effect. We will try to warn you in advance of this happening.
Moblox has created Mobile plans that meet the needs of our subscribers. We don’t want you to pay for data that you don’t need. If your data usage is more than expected you can change to a plan with a greater allowance at any time. Alternatively you can buy extra data bolt-ons. You can see your data usage using the Moblox website MyServices or the Moblox App. Moblox will alert you if it seems you may use more data than is included in your plan. We will alert you at 80% of your data allowance and again when you reach 100%. If you do not upgrade your plan or buy a data bolt-on you will be charged out of bundle rates for data used beyond your data allowance. You can find the additional fees at https://moblox.com/mobile/charges. Any additional fees will be added to your monthly bill.
If your data usage is less than expected you can change to a plan with a lesser allowance at any time, the lesser plan and reduction in charges will take effect at the beginning of the next billing period.
Subscriptions
Your Moblox Mobile Subscription lasts for a calendar month, starting from the first of the month. In the first month, your subscription starts from the day you activate your SIM on the Moblox website (i.e. the day of activation counts as one full day, regardless of the time of activation, and is included in the monthly period) and the Plan is allocated to your account. It will end at the end of the calendar month. The first bill includes a pro-rata amount for the month in which you activate your SIM. We bill for one month in advance for all monthly recurring subscriptions.
Age Restricted Content
The default setting for age restricted content is “Unrestricted”. You can change this by contacting us using the details in section 2 above.
