    Hi,

    I've had 18 calls from this number to my mobile in the last 72 hours.
    This is ridiculous, and equivalent to harrassment.

    Please can i arrange to be removed from call lists as this is extremely annoying, especially as when i answer there isnt anyone on the other end!

    Regards

    Scott

    Hi,

    since my above post i have recieved another 3 calls.
    If you're objective is to alienate your customers - you've succeeded!

    I will have to seriously reconsider remaining a meteor customer as this level of harrassment is unacceptable.

    Regards

    Scott

    I have 5 phone calls from this number in the last 2 days and wnet i answer the call there is no-one there - when i call the number back it advises me that Eircom / Meteor are trying to call me

    Can you remove me from whatever cold calling lists you have - i have no problem talking to anyone however 5 calls in 2 days with no way of speaking to anyone is EXCESSIVE
    Hi GeorgeAVFC

    I do agree with you. This does sound like an excessive amount of calls. While the calls are made from an automated dialler, this is no excuse for that no. of calls and suggests an error (perhaps temporary) with this. I will request that you be removed from the Calling list and will also pass your feedback to Operations.

    In order for me to do so can you please PM me your Eircom account no. (also emobile and Meteor if you have a separate account no. for these) and will ask that you be removed from these.

    thanks

    After a brief respite, the calls from 01 7652760 have started again to my home phone. I never answer them but they are a real nuisance to say the least.

    Please confirm that if I send a PM that you will make sure those calls will stop.

    Hi GeorgeAVFC

    I am sorry to hear this. While we do call existing/ former customers from time to time you certainly should not be receiving so many of these calls over such a short period of time. I can request that you be removed completely from this calling list. Can you forward me by PM your Account no. if you are an Eircom/ Meteor Customer or if not currently a customer, your name and address and Phone no. and I will request that this be done.

    thanks
    Colm

    I googled this and came up with this thread. I also got a couple of these calls despite the fact that my number is clearly listed in the national directory database NOT to receive marketing calls

    Can you explain why you are in breach of consumer and data protection?


  • Registered Users Posts: 46,108 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Just had another of these calls this evening. I did ask for an explanation but as none is forthcoming you will now answer to someone else.

    Hi Guys,

    have recently signed up with Meteor Mobile phone. Its seems that despite meticulously requesting not to be contacted under any circumstances on the various contract forms... I seem to have fallen foul of their marketing dialler application. Have had two calls from this number this afternoon. When I answer, it just hangs up.

    Eircom represenatatives .. if I PM you may details can you query your systems and have me removed please?


  • Registered Users Posts: 822 ✭✭✭lapua20grain


    I'm glad I got rid of eircom was sick of them calling me. terrible company very unprofessional staff

    There seems to be an unspoken rule between regulators (DPC and ComReg) and pretty much all companies these days, that nothing will be done to stop marketing spam and similar stuff, and only tiny fines will be meted out to companies - so that companies never actually stop spamming their customers.

    I've cut off business with a few companies lately over stuff like this - I've been a customer with Eircom for decades, and it's a great way to lose my service; I've already requested to be removed from marketing lists several times, and if I get any more of these marketing calls, I am done with Eircom.

    Pester people with these calls, and openly disrespect them by putting them back on marketing lists after they have requested removal, and lie to them by telling them they will not be put back on these lists in the future, and you will lose customers.

    I just simply don't trust any company that pulls crap like this anymore - they will lie through their teeth, and keep on pestering you, no matter what they say.

    As a side note.
    I was contacted by SKY the other day. I am a customer of theirs, but I have declined marketing calls in every way shape of form.
    So a guy rings me up asking if I want the sports package. I politely told him I didn't, and to 'again' remove me from any, and all, lists.

    Yesterday, I got an email asking me to take part in a survey about MY experience of contacting SKY...???

    They contacted me FFS, and despite being asked to be removed, they have the cheek to send me an email as well... You couldn't make it up..!!

    I recieved a call from this number on 19th Oct at 10.03 pm. The lady asked if I'd like a faster broadband. She said he could increase it for me straight away if I could hold on. After a short wait she said that there was a problem with her system and said she would call back the following day. Its two weeks later and I have heard nothing.

    Hi EASYNEWS

    I'm sorry to hear of this, you should have been called back as advised. If you're interested in faster broadband please contact the eir sales team on free phone 1800500300 - Also, if you would like to see if your line  can get better speeds drop me a PM including your land line number and I'll see what speeds are available :)

    Please help! 

    My wife works nights and keeps being woken during the day by the 01 765 2760 call. 

    Is there any way we can get that number blocked? 

    Thanks

    As above

    My own experience with Eircon was that despite repeated promises to be removed from their marketing databases, I would find them calling me again a few days later.
    A similar frequency of door to door calls would also occur.
    Cue a letter to their data protection officer instructing him to finally remove me from their databases or face a charge of €10000 per call.
    The calls stopped!

    Thanks for that. After waiting 13 days here for a reply that never came, that seems to be my only option.
