    most shops would close at 6/7 on on weekdays... Open till 9 tomorrow and friday! Why not call them?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 670 ✭✭✭ciotog


    Thanks for the info Queen - could only find their UK number on the website and didn't fancy that on my mobile. I'll do my Argosing tomorrow so :)

    I could'nt find the UK number on their website, but then I was looking at www.argos.ie


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,199 ✭✭✭Shryke


    I doubt they'd be open late this friday. The whole easter thing and all, though maybe they are.

    Clicking through the 'Contact Us' links on argos.ie brings you to: http://www.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ArgosStaticPageSecondLevel?langId=-1&storeId=30001&includeName=ContactUs.htm#contact - which has the UK number. I was hoping the opening hours would've been mentioned on the store locator page.

    Arghhhh!!
    Just having the same problem.

    Put your opening hours on the website Argos!!! Muppets!!

    091-760602. Give em a call
    Think thats their number, dont quote me on that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7 MyAmber


    Call (01) 216 16 16 to get the opening hours.
    You need a store code which you can get here:
    http://www.argos.ie/static/StaticDisplay/includeName/StoreLocator.htm


  • Moderators Posts: 12,397 ✭✭✭✭Black_Knight


    Only 5 months late there MyAmber. Back to your box now.... ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7 MyAmber


    Well, 5 months later and the problem is the same - I've been looking for those opening hours recently.
    You have to go to argos.ie, "contact us" section, being transferred to argos.co.uk, call UK store locator, find out that the code for the shop is not in UK, get the number for IE and call them.
    At least the next person can skip all those steps. And obviously phone numbers from goldenpages don't work.

    regards.

    Thanks for that.

    I cannot believe they don't have the times on their website.

    This thread is the first hit on Google.ie when looking too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 277 ✭✭Whiskeyjack


    Liffey Valley ones are here:

    Mon-Tue 9am – 6.30pm
    Wed-Fri 9am – 9pm
    Sat 9am – 6pm
    Sun 10am – 6pm

    If it's in a shopping centre a good thing to try is that centre's website.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 895 ✭✭✭brav


    Ya I just checked there(using 012161616 and option 3 then the store code and the hash button)
    I as only interested in mon to fri but it does seem all stores are different.
    eg Cork Mahon mon to fri is 9am to 9pm, and cork retail(blackpool) is mon to wed 8.30am to 6pm and 9am to 9pm thurs and fri.

    They should have this on their site, would make things easier


  • Moderators Posts: 12,397 ✭✭✭✭Black_Knight


    Its stupid that they dont have it on their site.
    Was on the walk home and needed to tip into argos, so popped out the phone, found this thread, found the galway store code (547), used the 012161616 number, 3, 547, #.

    Reads out the times, then used my magnificent memory to comment back here on boards the days and times.... all on my HTC Hero, awesome phone.

    This contradicts what Black_Night said:

    8.30 - 8.00. Wed & Thursday
    8.30 - 9.00 Friday.

    Galway Store Code is 547 for any anal extra-organised peeps. for the up-coming Bah Humbug season!!
    :D;):D

    Can I just add that I absolutely HATE having to ring up Computer or Sports shops grrrr makes me so mad! No-one in a shop answers a phone anymore. It all goes through to 1 central phone-number where nobody seems to know anything. If you do manage to get put through to the exact shop or branch you need, - their phone just endlessly rings out grrrrrrrr!! Waste of a phone-call .....

    Actually I find the Argos phone service very good ..... Plus you can check Opening Times on there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3 mater_familias


    Thanks for the info!! I keep getting back here to check the opening tim es... How can such an info be missing from their we page??!!! :mad:

    Just wanted to say thank you very much for posting the opening hours.
    I also got here by way of google.
    It seems Argos bussiness model is run by complete and utter morons its almost frustrating enough experiencing the stupidity of this bussiness that i would boycotte them.Twats!
    Honestly who runs a bussiness and doesnt tell a massive portion of potential customers when they open in this day and age.
    Sorry rant over :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22 dathomir


    Does anybody know a working phone number for Argos in Galway?

    I have tried the 091 760602 number but that won't connect.

    Any help would be appreciated!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,155 ✭✭✭PopeBuckfastXVI


    Try the central 01 number maybe?
