    Hi Grainne,

    I have two queries:

    Query 1:

    Hi Grainne,

    I am an emobile customer and I have been unable to mms picture messages from O2 numbers since at least Friday. I contacted emobile via the online chat function on Saturday evening and they asked me to check my sim in other phones and other sims in my phone. I checked with three different O2 people and four separate people I know on emobile it was impossible to receive O2 mms messages on emobile phones. Eventually the person on the chat system contacted emobile technical support who said it was a "routing issue" that would be fixed within 24 hours.

    Can you please look into this for me?

    I am certain it is not an O2 problem because the same O2 phones have been able to send mms messages to other networks.

    I do not know if this is a network wide issue or just a unhappy coincidence for the four emobile customers I know.

    This issue that I posted has been completely ignored on this message board. I have called your "Customer Support" team about it on four separate occasions. Each time the person I have talked with has been very polite but totally unable to help me. Each time they have contacted "Technical Support" on my behalf but each time all they can tell me is that Technical Support are dealing with the issue.

    Technical Support will give no indication of when they might follow up on it or when they will let me know what they have achieved. Also Technical Support do not talk to the public so each time I ring I have to repeat my problem to the customer support person who then just tells me the same thing: that Technical Support have been told about the issue.


    Query 2:
    I am unable to sign up to the emobile "Let's talk" forum on your website. The sign up form tells me that my phone number and pin code are "Invalid Credentials"
    Hi Drift,

    Our apologies your post was not responded to.

    Could you advise when the MMS is being sent to your phone do you have mobile data enabled on your phone?
    Could you PM your mobile number and PIN and what phone you have I will see what can be done.

    In regard to the eMobile forum you definitely should be able register your details. Once I get your details I will be able check what the issue is.

    Hi guys,

    I was travelling for the past 3 months and I lost my SIM card while abroad. When I got home, I got a SIM replacement. Ever since, I've had no 3G or H+ data connection. Edge is the very best that I can get. I've tried getting a second SIM replacement in case it was a SIM problem but had no luck there. I've checked for the correct internet settings and all is fine there too. Is there anything ye can do for me? I need my internet connection to be much better than it is now, it's not even half as good as it was when I left. I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 btw.

    Thanks

    Hi dorgasm,

    Could you advise what location you are experiencing this in? Also could you check what settings you have set up on your phone? Is it set as GSM/WCDMA? This is the best setting to ensure that you have 3G access.

    Hi Grainne,

    Thanks for the help. You are exactly right. I had altered the setting abroad to be compatible with the network I was with. Completely forgot about it. Sorted now so thanks!

    Thanks Grainne,

    I asked about the validity period because the time period you mentioned would be the norm for most add ons however the t&cs for the offer states that the add in is valid for 12 months. 

    http://www.emobile.ie/assets/static/pdfs/prepay_international_addon_v1.pdf

    Can you please confirm? I noticed you mentioned billing date in your post above. I just want to restate that it's the prepaid add on I'm enquiring about, not the bill pay version. 

    Thanks again. 
    Hi Gunnerfitzy,

    If you click on this link it advises that this add - on is applied to an account for a period of 30 days. If you do not use up the add - on within 30 days the remaining allowance is removed and you are then given a new allocation. http://www.emobile.ie/phonesplansmore/addons/

    Hi again Grainne,

    The link on the on the bottom of the page '[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] [/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]International add-on Terms and Conditions[/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] [/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]' [/font]brings me to a PDF document titled 'International Add On - Bill Pay'. This does indeed state that the minutes must be used with one month. However it is the prepaid add on specifically that I am  enquiring about.

    On the terms and conditions section of the website there is an link for ' [font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]International Add On - Prepay[/font] '. When click on this it brings me to a PDF document titled ' International Add On - Prepay '. This document states 'The Promotion minutes must be used within 12 months. Unused minutes cannot be carried over into the next year'.

    Are the terms and conditions stated on website incorrect?

    Thanks again.
    Hi gunnerfitzy,

    I will get this investigated with our online team. As soon as I get an update on this I will advise.

    Hi

    I have recently moved house. The reception in my new house both inside AND outside is very very very poor. Most of the time I have no signal. At times this goes to 1 or 2 bars but if I try make a call/ go online this disappears instantly. Almost every call is dropped or myself or the caller cant hear each other.

    Is there anything which can be done to help me please? I have been missing and dropping important calls recently as a direct result of this.

    Many thanks.

    Hiya folks.

    Got a strange issue and need you to look into it.

    I have a particular company claiming to ring me and I am not getting any calls from them.  I have challenged them and they have been able to reel off times they claim to have tried me.  We are talking about five or six calls.  My phone shows no missed calls so either there is a fault somewhere or they are telling porkies.  The problem is they are THEN ringing another number where the call is unwelcome, so this is kind off important.

    Can you check your end please.

    Sending a pm to grainne with security details and my phone number

    I have the same problem as above. I ring my phone from my wife's phone who is not on emobile and it says my number can't be reached on 3 and 4 times but rings on the 5 th time with the reception showing the same bars all the time (I am roaming when at home cos there is no emobile coverage but I don't have a major issue with this(

    Hi guys,

    I'm having an issue with text messages on my phone. I'm not sure if it's just sending or just receiving but for the past few days, some of my friends say they have sent me a text message but I have not received it. This has happened numerous times now. I tested it out myself by sending a couple of messages from my own number to my own number. Only ~75% of the messages I sent came through to my phone. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S3. 

    Let me know if ye need more info, thanks.
