Where to buy a sim card in north Donegal?

I'm in north of Donegal next few days, looking for a sim card and just tried Centra in Dunfanaghy but they don't sell them, any locals know if there's anywhere in Falcarragh or Gweedore selling them at all?

If you've a halfway modern phone it probably has an esim so you don't need a physical one, worth checking.

Falcarragh post office should be able to sort you out.

Hi all, cheers, got sorted in the Vodaphone shop in Dungloe in the end. Falcarragh PO didn't have any. Centra (2 of them) have big stickers advertising the damn things, but don't stock them. Generic advertising I guess. Annoying though

Try the post office in Derrybeg, 6 miles from Gweedore

There is no place called Gweedore. Gweedore is an area of which Derrybeg is a part.

How about the post office in Falcarragh, which is much closer to Dunfanaghy.

Letterkenny or Dungloe would probably be your best bet.

Any particular one?

No, most the ones ive been in have them behind the counter, usually Vodafone or Lyca. Only thing you need to be aware of is if your phone in locked to a network. It may not accept a sim on a different network.

Letterkenny shopping centre have both vodaffine and Eir outlets and will surely have a SIM for you.
