    Hi Kenzie Tinkling Batter

    Firstly I would like to apologise for the disappointing experience you have had with eircom. I understand this has caused you great inconvenience and in consideration of previous issues I have now raised a complaint for investigation on the terms of appealing appealing payment after December 30th. I will PM you the Complaint reference number now.

    I have also requested a manager in the complaints team to assign this case with urgency. As soon as your appeal is investigated you will be contacted. If you have a new or preferred contact number please feel free to PM it to me and I will add it to the case notes.[font=Calibri","sans-serif]

    Thanks
    Al

    Hi punisher5112

    I had replied to you earlier today on another thread, just in case you don't see it I had replied with the following:

    "According to your complaints case notes there was number of attempts to contact you however there had been no answer. Because there was no answer a Letter is being arranged by post. The case reference number is 1815465 and the Letter will be with you this week.

    Thanks
    Al"

    Just an update. 

    I received a call from Eircom on Thursday and the agent explained to me that Eircom will bring down the charges to the original price I was offered when I signed up and that I would not be paying cancellation charges. So basically I waited 3 weeks for an agent to tell me exactly what I was told previously. Ha ha.  So I calmly asked her what department she was from and asked did she know exactly what complaint she was dealing with. She explained that she was from The Complaints team and that I would have to pay for the service I used. So I explained why I think its shocking to ask me to pay for the service I used and because she was from the Complaints team I asked why she never responded to 5+ emails I sent. She was a little shocked herself that I never received a reply and said she would investigate it and get back to me the next day.

    So Friday she rang back as she promised and said she read the emails and apologised profusely for never replying and indeed for the whole situation and then told me that they will wipe all charges. Done. Situation is resolved. The fight is over. 

    This has without doubt been my worst experience with a provider of any service I purchased. I will certainly not ever use Eircom in any capacity ever again. For those of you currently "fighting" with Eircom I would recommend you keep going and to not get too stressed, don't let it consume you. Something I only learned towards the end of this ordeal.

    I have been following this from the very start and I am personally delighted for you. Reading through this makes me angry so can't imagine what you've been through. I won't be using Eircom myself ever after witnessing all this. Well done androl in sticking at it and not bending over for eircom.

    Wow androl that is great news I wonder will my problem work out as well as yours has.

    I am still waiting to be contacted by the com plaints team and at this stage I am really annoyed and drained about the whole thing.

    It will if you stay on top of it. Don't let it consume you. Ask for your complaint to be clearly written in the notes and then get the agents name. So when you ring up and ask for updates etc... ask the new agent to read the last note added by X and all the information will be there. The worst part of the process for me was repeating myself time and time again. This made my life a lot easier. I would literally say. "Put me on hold and take your time to go through the last note by X and then we go from there". Best of luck

    Hi Kenzie Tinkling Batter

    I'm glad to hear that this has now been resolved. It's clear to see that apologies are in order & I am very sorry for the delays in resolving this as it's indeed clear to see this went on far too long to be deemed as acceptable.

    Thanks
    Al

    Eircom Al are you going to help?

    My ordeal has also been going on since the start on December and still I am been ignored.

    I have not been contacted by complaints team and I am very upset over the whole situation.
