Waterford Gardai Station Phone number

deisedave

Online everywhere it says the number is 353 51 874 888, There has been a few times when I needed them and tried this number and could not get true. Does anyone have the number that is in use at the moment and they really should have their number a little easier to get.

I spent ages trying to phone this broken number one day that I saw a hazard on a road and couldn't get through.

They have multiple numbers.

051 305300 is the one they use but you may hear of different numbers.

999 rings a different number in the station that is only used for emergencies.

Thanks I will save that number into my phone for future emergencies, I saw people trying to kick in the door a couple of houses down last night and I was trying to call the cops.

When they saw me looking out they cleared off.

I am probably naive but I thought 999 was for like very big emergencies but in the future I will just ring 999, its alot easier than trying to find their number.

Indeed it is. Only use that number if its a life or death situation, or you need to contact the Guards in an emergency and don't have their number to hand.

That is what you said to google and the first link is not the right number so you are wrong. The point of this thread is not suppose to be a pissing contest, the point was for me the get the number so in the future if I see anyone in trouble I can call the guards.

Thanks to people for the help and if the mods want to lock this thread they can because I got the information I needed.

999/112 is an emergency number and should only be used if there is any immediate threat to life or property. It shouldn't be used if whatever has happened and is over.

051-305300 is the station number, and you'll get through to the same people, only that the 999 costs the taxpayer.

I taught 999 gets threw to a central office and then distributed to what ever service you need/??????

In fairness to TiltedBrain, if you search for "Waterford Garda station phone number" as suggested then you'll get the correct result. If you search for "Waterford Garda station phone" as you've done then you won't.

999/112 is a private company paid for by the state for each call received. They get the call, determine which service (fire/ambulance/gardai/coastguard) and route it through to the relevant HQ, ie: calls for the fire service in the Munster Region all go to the central centre in Limerick.

Thing is, if you are in, say, Dungarvan, and you ring 999 for a non-emergency for Gardai in the Dungarvan area, you will still get routed through (the company have to route all calls) but you will go through to the Divisional Headquarters for Dungarvan, ie: Waterford. You will then be told you need to ring the Dungarvan station number (058-48600) which is wasting time and costing money.

Hey guys...

Slightly off topic...

I'm having a lot of hassle with teenagers on my street (14-15) years old... they kick footballs around, hitting our walls and cars a lot. The damage to the cars are very very insignificant but it's moreso the noise and the ball sometimes lands in my yard.

This is a constant thing at night time and during the day at weekends. we live in somewhat a cul de sac with a green nearby.

Has anyone had a similar problem, I know I am very restricted on my rights of what I can do. I had a confrontation with one of them today and needless to say I used a lot of unfavorable language with him.

Many thanks in advance

In fairness if I was a teenager playing football and was asked to move by some fella cursing at me I would not have moved, I would say his best bet would of been to ask them nicely.
