You sure Adam? Iv always called ESB Networks, thats what the polls around here say anyway, and to quote the poll number and location?

I think Airtricity may handle public lighting now, so not sure if you contact them or not.

You're right Sully. As far as I know, if their response isn't satisfactory, get the Council to sort it out.

You ring the Roads Department (051 309900) in the City Council giving the street address & pole number. Airtricity have have the maintenance contract, but it is City Council who pay the bills.
