    Hi Guys
    I'm on an eMobile business plan. Can I view my account usage on My eMobile online? I don't seem to be able to access it....

    Thanks

    Hi guys,

    Two quick questions.

    1)  I have an emobile postpaid connection and the contract has ended. When i enquired with the tech support, they told me that the cost of the new phone is the same as the one advertised online.
    Is there any benefit if an existing customer takes a new phone (is there no loyalty bonus??).
    2)
    If I take a new prepaid connection, will I be getting free web texts? is there a minimu balance I should have?

    regards,

    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 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.

    Grainne
    But Grainne, E Mobile decide the dates. After 30 days the plan expires and they take €20 from the bank account. Customers can not schedule the deduction for the 29th day. This is not a matter for the customer - it is one for E Mobile systems. My point is that €20 has been credited to the E Mobile account at, say, 10.00 on day one of the Plan.

    Two hours later, the plan has not been activated, the customer makes a call and the cost comes from the €20. Now; as there is no longer €20 in the account the plan does not activate.

    Consequence: The €20 is used by later calls at standard rates which means that long before the 30 days have passed calls are barred. The customer has provided the amount required by the Plan under the timescale required but is not being accorded the benefit paid for.

    The whole point of the Plan is that calls are charged at the rate advertised. If the E Mobile systems are defective that needs to be addressed. Or should this be referred to the Regulator?

    Hi suave.4u,



    The prices of the phones when availing of an upgrade would usually be similar to the price that new customers pay. If you call our upgrade team on 1800303454 the agent will be able advise.



    If you change to Prepaid there is no minimum credit that you will need to avail of free webtexts.

    Hi Condatis,

    I do understand that the length of time is excessive but at the moment this is the timeframe for plans to activate. I have previously passed this on.

    If you wish to change the date that the credit is taken from your bank you can do this by calling our top up direct date. It is quicker for the plan to activate if you top up the day before the plan ends.

    Hi Reps,

    Any chance of getting this information soon? I PM'd Grainne all the required information.

    Thanks, PM
    Hello Reps,

    Can you please confirm whether eMobile log or keep any record of calls to freephone numbers - 1800, 00800, 19XX etc.?

    Regards, PM
    Hi Aron Stale Clipboard,

    Yes eMobile do keep records. You can view them on your My eMobile account.

    Grainne
    Hi Grainne,

    These calls are not itemized on my bill (all other calls are itemised). I contacted support and apparently they are unable to see these calls either.

    Can you please double check and confirm whether eMobile record details for calls made to Freephone numbers? Where can I find these details?

    Regards
    Hi Aron Stale Clipboard,

    If you wish to retrieve this information I can request for a usage report showing all calls that you made. I can send you this information for the last 3 months or alternatively if you want it for longer you will have to send a written request.

    Is that Eircom's policy?

    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.....

    Hi loopymum,

    You will have to call our cancellation team first to give your 30 days notice and the agent will then advise you of the email address.
