    Hi fatherted1969




    Have you tried your email address as the username and your emails password for the password?

    If this does not work then I suggest reading the below on the recent changes made to webmail however if that does not help then you would need to contact email support on 1890260260 (if you are an eircom broadband customer) or alternatively on 1530277100 if not.


    There are many people reporting issues with the recent changes made to eircom webmail and I will forward this feedback to online developers. 
    The most recent version has been launched with the intention of improving the experience for our customers by offering improved features such as giving you more storage space per mailbox (5gb) and allowing you to access different email accounts within eircom webmail

    No joy there !!

    I put in my email name and password and it wouldn't work. What's happening is all emails with attachments won't print unless i enable printing and when u do it asks for username which i don't have. I know its not a security thing on the attachments that the sender hasn't put on cos I've checked but its a nuisance having to forward everything to my work email just so i can print them off.

    I rang eircom this morning and was passed around for about 20 mins to 3 different helpline staff and had to hang up cos i couldn't hold any longer

    Any ideas

    Re the 'new' webmail -

    1) AFIR there was no announcement that it was going to be changed, I just logged in one day and there it was !

    2) While my mobile log in hasn't changed '&^%$£'@eircom.net' , the 'new' webmail on my home /laptop requires me to type in ALL my email address as distinct from the '&^%$£'@eircom.net' on my mobile, and it doesn't remember my password either.This is a disimprovment on the old one.
