    My internet connection keeps dropping every couple of minutes. This has been going the past few days. You online chat was as useful as a chocolate tea pot, and told me my address didn't match what they have on record. 

    Continually on hold on the support line. I want someone on the technical team to call me, as this is beyond a joke at this stage.

    Can you check my address details please, as the web chat guys seem to have my old address and wouldn't take my queries any further?

    Hi there Spudman_20000

    Do you want me to check what address you have on your actual account? If so, send me your account number, full registered name, email address, your current address and DOB in a PM.

    Hi there Spudman_20000

    I've received all the information now via PM and the screenshot you sent via Twitter.

    Hopefully we will get this sorted for you soon

    Thanks Kyle, that should address the minor issue of the My Eir app and website not working but the connection disconnect issue remains.

    I got through to the technical support team yesterday, and a fault with the line was logged.

    The technician contacted me to say they had upped the bandwidth to 100mb, which they explained should fix the disconnect issue.

    Wonderful says I, except when I check my connection after this "fix":
    1. The connection speeds are the same as they ever were and more importantly...
    2. The connection is still dropping every couple of minutes!

    I've responded with an "unresolved" message to the automated text I received, but can you check this will be followed up on please?
