    Hi there, 

    Have just been on hold for 30 minutes for roughly the 15th time in the last few months -  have been transferred to 3 different departments all of whom as for the same account details ask me to explain the problem and promptly tell me "that should be someone else ill transfer you" - repeat, repeat, repeat. But we can take it back to the start...

    Ordered a mobile to add to my current broadband plan on Nov 24th (350 euro) - Money taken immediately. This is where the process stops working from Eir's side.. 

    Week 1 - the wrong phone arrives. 
    Week 2 - they  send a jiffy bag 
    Week 3 - they send a second bag as first one didnt show up
    Week 4 - Bag arrives and phone returned, Only now am i told they don't actually have the phone I ordered

    By this time I am already being charged for a mobile serrive i cant use. 

    Cancel the order Dec 18th and told refund will be in 5-10  days to your card. 

    Call again Dec 27th and got someone who was helpful (Adam - only helpful I person I have spoken to in this whole saga) and informed me refund had never been processed and credit to my account for the hassle had also not been applied. 

    He applied for the refund on the spot and said he would add the credit. Card will be refunded in 5 working days. 

    Fast forward to todays call to check on the status and I get the following: 

    Agent 1 - Tried to help but didn thave access, have to transfer (Fair Enough) 
    Agent 2- Refunds take 60 days (??!!) cant help have to transffer 
    Agent 3 ("Loyalty Team" - Ironic!)Nichole - cant help have to transfer to billing - I said no i have been transfer too many times you should be able to do this as the last loyalty agent was. Ok ill just put you on hold and check. 

    10 mins later - hangs up while i'm still on hold. 

    If this money is not refunded to my account ASAP there will be a complaint to com-reg as this is ridiculous 6 weeks later.
