    Hi folks,

    So I've just come off live chat after upgrading my sim only 1gb contract to a sim only 10gb contract. The confirmation email I've received states an 18 month contract applies?? I've seen other posts online where it has been confirmed this is an email error, and that 30 day contract is correct. It also states an 18 month contract when I log in to My Eir? Can you confirm what is going on here? I did not give permission to sign up to an 18 month contract, and would like it verified that I am indeed on a 30 day contract. Thanks.

    Can I get a reply to my query Thomas which is about the exact same thing. Its been nearly a week since I asked this question on boards. I've already PM'd the reps twice.

    It says on their website it's "[font=GT-Walsheim-Regular, Arial]All plans subject to a 30 day rolling contract" for SIM only.[/font]
    [font=GT-Walsheim-Regular, Arial]It sounds like an error, but you can never be sure until you get it in writing. The reality is that you didn't agree to an 18-month contract, so it would be unenforcible anyway. You can't just notify someone that "surprise! gotcha!! You're in an 18 month contract now muahaha!"[/font]
    Contract law simply doesn't work like that. So, if you didn't agree to an 18-month contract, you're not in one.

    If you're getting no clarification, get onto ComReg and ask them to clarify it for you.

    Eir: Perhaps you should identify the error in your system that's sending out these emails and send a clarification to all customers who've received it?
