    Hi

    My mother is trying to upgrade to an iphone 5s. Her contract is up on the 19th December. She went in store about three weeks ago and they approved the early upgrade but didn't have the iphone 5s in stock. It's now back in stock so she tried to upgrade over the phone (as she can't get to a store) But customer services are now telling her she cannot upgrade until after the 19th, despite the fact that she was approved three weeks ago!

    Can someone look into this please
    Hi marquise,

    Sorry to hear your mother was given mixed information. Could you PM me her mobile number and PIN provided you have access to the account and I will look into this for you.

    Hi Grainne.
    I recently considered switching over to e-mobile but was told on the phone that I couldn't avail of any discounts as my landline is with Vodafone. I'm wondering can you do anything for me as I have eircom phonewatch with monitoring for about 16 years now.
    I hope my loyalty (for now) can stand to me.
    Thanks.

    Hi problemchimp,

    In order to receive any eircom discounts you would have to have an eircom account number and landline number. Unfortunately if you do not meet this criteria it would not be possible for you to avail of any discounts.

    So much for 16 years loyalty, my next query will be "who else can monitor my alarm system besides eircom phonewatch". I don't think I'll be making enquirees on This forum.

    My apologies for that problemchimp,

    Unfortunately the only way to receive the discount is to have an eircom landline account.

    Hi

    So last month I call up about my upgrade and I was told it would cost 240 for the HTC on 10th of December, I ring up today just to confirm and I'm told "Sorry the price went up its now 399"

    What kind of increase is that, €160 on top , and I was told in November I would be charged 240

    Brilliant thanks emobile, tell your customer one price, save up the money and then 75% increase on the phone

    Happy Christmas

    Hi Bp!,

    The prices of phones are subject to change from month to month based on certain factors.

    Can someone please find out what is going on?

    This is beyond disgraceful behaviour at this stage.

    Can one of the other reps please deal with this as its obviously above Grainne's capabilities?
    Is this just being ignored?

    Is that Eircom's policy?
    Feckin joke of a customer service.

    I see whats going on here. Emobile are choosing to just ignore the fact that I sent a registered letter addressed to an individual within the company, which they have lost and failed to respond to. 

    When I try to get the matter seen to it is again ignored. When I kick up a fuss because Im annoyed that this is going on 2 months I am ignored. 

    Im someway satisfied that because this is a public forum the outrageous calamity which is Emobile customer care is here for all to see.

    Pat on the back guys. Well done. Keep up the good work.
    Still waiting.....
    and waiting..........

    Hi Bp!,

    We like to kick our good customers in the nuts from month to month based on certain factors. And make their upgrades close to pointless

    Hi Grainne - is it possible to add conference call feature to an eMobile account?
    My phone (S3) has the option to merge two calls but it fails and I see it's a feature that has to be authorised by the network...

    My wife is on the 20/30 Pre-pay plan. When the monthly renewal is due she gets the usual text to notify her of this.

    There will be a further text to notify her that her bank account has been debited with €20 which has been credited to E-Mobile.

    However she can not avail of the plan until the payment is "activated". However, the activation process, typically, will not take place until about 24 hours has passed.

    If she makes any calls before activation portion of the €20 is used which means that activation can not take place because there is no longer €20 in the account.

    Several calls to Customer Service say that activation will take place within about 15 minutes. This NEVER happens.

    Therefore to enable activation she must not make calls for 24 hours - which is a nonsense. Alternatively  she can put in an additional cash sum in order to make calls which negates the principle of the 20/30 Plan.

    Hi DaLad,

    You would need to unlock the phone first before inserting another network SIM into the phone.

    Hi Condatis,

    I understand that the length of time is excessive but unfortunately it can take upto 24 hours for a plan to activate. What I would advise is to schedule the top up to the day before the plan is due to activate and the plan generally activates quicker than topping up on the day the plan ends.

    Bill wrong.


    Hiya Grainne,

    Long time no write!  Well, got a bill for the wifes phone this morning and its wrong. 
    I put her on the 30 day - sim only - half price for life and everything was fine for months and months and then this months bill seems to have lost the half price bit.

    Sending you a pm with the relevant details.

    Thanks
