    Hi - Can you follow up on my account.

    - End March: I rang up to cancel my account and was offered 50% off for 6 months which i accepted

    - End April: Was called by Eircom saying they would like to offer me 5 euro off my bill. They asked if i can confirm i accept and that they will then go through the terms to which i responded 'No, Id like you to go through the terms first' so the agent precceded saying that I would get this and that and 5 euro off my old bill price (Which would be 20e dearer that what i agreed to at end of march. The agent had no record of this previos agreement

    - End April: I was charged full amont in latest bill


    Do you not record calls? Or at least sent confirmation email on agreements made over the phone? Seems like this should be common practice?

    Hi fluff_daddy

    I'm sorry to hear of this, I have looked in to your account history and I do see that you were speaking with a member of the loyalty team on the 30th of March however no package was applied.


    I can also see that you were speaking with a member of accounts on the 24th of April where equally no package was applied.

    As according to the case notes (for the discussion on the 31st of March) there is no record of an offer of 50% discount for six months. To lodge an appeal to have the call recording listened to by a member of management you will need to log an official complaint where a case is sent for investigation and upon completion of the investigation you are contacted within 10 days.

    You can log an official complaint by choosing one of the four routes available and detailed here: http://support.eircom.net/article/codeofpractice

    I fully understand the cause for concern with this so once you have lodged a complaint please feel free to PM me the reference number and I will note your urgency to the case notes with the hope that it speeds up a timely resolution

    Thanks
    Al

    Hi fluff_daddy

    Sorry for missing your PM yesterday afternoon - The package will need to be applied by a member of eircom loyalty team and specific instruction is required over a call from the account holder.

    You can reach them on free phone 1901 (choose every option to "remove service" when you enter your number and you will get through to the cancellations & loyalty team.

    Cheers
    Al

    Well, my experience has certainly been a good impression of a comedy sketch. I have been dealing with the Head of Communications for two weeks now, still not resolved.

    I'll just be happy to share my story with as many people as possible before they make the mistake of signing up with Eircom.
