verified by Visa issue

    I've just been onto the bank of Ireland verified by Visa helpline three times this evening trying to reset my password. They could not reset my password.

    I've been told by an agent that a number of customers have called this evening with the exact same problem and it appears to be a wider boi issue.

    I was told they did not have the ability to help further by escalating the issue tonight, but that I can expect a phone call from a team lead tomorrow.

    Is it normal that issues affecting multiple customers at the same time cannot be escalated until the next day?

    Hi todders,

    At times some queries may require further escalation and it may not be possible to resolve immediately at the time of the call.

    We would really like to help with this, if you’d like a call back please let us know.

    Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused to you.

    Hi Tara

    I was told last night on the phone repeatedly that they had no one on shift or on call to escalate this issue to.

    I don't see the point of receiving a phone call for a "team lead" 24 hours when they should have been escalating the issue to a technical team


    Is that normal for an issue affecting multiple people which was confirmed by boi themselves?

    I called three times. I was told there was a larger issue and they received multiple calls from other customers on it but they weren't able to call anyone about it.

    The issue is resolved now, but that didn't help me (or others) last night


    But can you explain why they weren't able to call anyone to help their customers at the time?

    They kept telling me they weren't technical but still they couldn't raise the issue with anyone as no one was available to help at the time.

    Why does boi have no one available to help on an issue that is affecting multiple customers?

    Why exactly do you need those details in order to confirm that boi had an issue that affected me and multiple customers at the same time on Monday evening?

    Do you not have the ability to verify this without asking your customers for details?
