    I can imagine but other people read these threads too:
    I'd really hope they do too. :)

    But I'd hate for the events of the last month concerning my account to be swamped or lost under other issues that aren't part of my complaint, and that could perhaps merit a thread of their own if ya get me. 


    Hope I dont sound like a selfish git by saying that, by the way. Honestly don't mean to.

    I really thought this would have seen some movement today.
    Very disappointed


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    Soooo.

    Anything happening today Reps?

    Nah, they're just hoping you'll go away and if you don't, and you keep pressing for an answer, they'll get a mod to ban you and buy them a bit more time. Standard form behaviour, look back at the threads here and you'll see it's happened before


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    I'm not going away, but neither am I going to do anything that will get me banned.

    I'm a reasonable and patient person and I have faith in the reps, let's give them a chance to get an answer for me. 
    There are further steps I can take, such as regulatory bodies etc, but I'd prefer to deal directly with Eircom.

    Listen Al, tbh I dont want to get into a long winded thing, getting 3rd parties involved and the likes....

    Yes the service is fully restored, but you have not responded about either the outstanding balance, or the additional charges on my most recent bill. 

    I thank you for your time in replying, but would appreciate your thoughts on this also. 

    THanks, 
    ALan

    I will investigate the charges you have mentioned above and get back to you as soon as possible.

    Thanks

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    It's a week now Alan, and no reply, and in the meantime, I've had a bill from eMobile that I am sure you can investigate also for me. 
    You'll see my issue when you see the bill. It is very obvious.

    I dont accept that this should take this long.

    Hi Al Capwned

    I have received confirmation that the additional charges wrongly requested (148.13 ex vat) have now been credited to your eircom account and will appear in your next bill.

    If you would like to PM me your emobile account number or NUmber & PIN (including details of the issues) I will request an eMobile representative to look in to this for you


    Thanks
    Al

    Alan, I pm'd you in the past couple of days (maybe yesterday or Tuesday) with my details. 

    I'd appreciate a reply as soon as you can, thanks. 


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned

    Ok thanks, 

    I'd appreciate if you made it clear to them that the reason for the extra data add-ons for the month of december was because I wanted to maintain an internet connection over the christmans period after the cock ups with my eircom broadband.

    Many thanks, Alan.

    Today or Tomorrow Alan?
    On the 16th of February.....

    And not a jot since.....
    Hard to believe that this thread is not being noticed by one of the reps on here.

    Yet another day gone without any contact from Eircom. My patience is wearing thin.....
    Hi Al Capwned

    I'm aware of the delays with a response to the data charges request and apologise for this.

    I can confirm now that a further credit of €35.97 (for additional data subscriptions) + €2.58 (for additional data usage)

    THis is a total of €38.55 (€47.41) which will display as credit of your next eircom bill

    Thanks
    Al


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    Never happened Alan. 
    My bill does not have this credit shown........

    Please investigate and tell me why.

    Hi Al
    we can look into this and be back to you soon. We had confirmation that these would be applied.

    I had problems with Eircom from the start of new contract last year, I contacted Eircom many times on the phone and got the kind of runaround your getting here. I just decided that I would run down contract and then get out. I also tried this method online. I am not just picking on Eircom, a lot of thes utility companies are full of bulzhit or just don't know what they are saying when you contact them. Once your signed up to a contract they don't care imo.

    Hi jobeenfitz
    sorry that this is your impression and I can assure you that we do realise the value of our contracted customers.
    If you would like to PM me with your details I can follow up on those issues and do promise that we will investigate and update you.  Hopefully we can do something to change your impression.
