    Hi
    Yesterday I placed an order (twice after chatting to the online chat to make sure it had gone through as he could not see it completing properly) for eFibre package with home phone and eVision - I did get an email but nothing with a reference number on it just a "thank you for choosing eVision" message.

    Can someone check that my order did actually go through?

    Hi jaggiebunnet

    I checked with the efibre online team. They did confirm they received your request. I check the telephone number / details you PMd us previously.

    efibre orders for your area / address are not going to be issued until late October - early November. However a member from the efibre back office team will contact you when they can process the order (on the contact details provided)  to insure you wish to ahead with the order and package.

    Thanks, Mark

    Hi Mark

    Just following up here as I don't want to spend hours on the phone.  I got a mail last week with order details etc, but no installation date - when will i be contacted with that?  It basically said
    "Installation Date and Time*:                                        ".
     
    Now there was nothing to indicate what the * was for either so I am none the wiser.

    Cheers
    J.

    After getting home last night I had a letter from Eircom to confirm my bank details and that the direct debit is setup - as I have no date for an installation I expect that there will be no charges coming out of my bank account until it is installed?

    Hi jaggiebunnet

    I am having trouble locating the PM you sent previously. As far as I can remember you may have sent it from a different boards user profile.

    Can you send it on again please.

    Mark 


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭jaggiebunnet


    Hi Mark - no I only have this boards id.  It is ok - I called eircom and got a case number for the eFibre team to get back to me about.  There is no date for installation on my file and I was concerned I would miss them.

    Hi,

    Sorry about that I found the efibre order REF: 572827 as well as the case with the efibre escalations team ID: 1197903

    I have sent a follow up to them, They advised they were able to issues efibre orders for that area last week. There is a lead time of 10 working days for installation. However I have asked them to push the case for you.

    Hi Mark - I got a call Thursday lunch time to say I would get a call withing 48 hours for an installation time - needless to say 48 hours have come and gone with no call and no installation date.  Seriously thinking about just cancelling this at this stage.

    Sorry to hear that, I will follow up with the efibre team and get back to you.

    72 hours and still no callback.  I will give this to the end of the week and then just cancel if I don't hear anything.

    Hi Mark

    Just wanted to follow up here - I got eFibre and eVision installed this morning - whole process was very painless and very well done.  Happy with the installation (ok I only get 39MB's download but I can get over that) - but a big fly in the ointment is that RTE 2 (and 1) is not in HD.  After getting on to chat where I had been told it would be in HD for free they said it is not available and that they don't know what they are going to do with this.  The RTE being in HD was confirmed in another thread here so it would seem we are being fed lies about the fact that HD is free for RTE?  Can you look into this - at the very least HD should be turned on until they sort out how to segregate RTE.

    Thanks

    Hi jaggiebunnet

    RTE HD is not included in the free/ essential pack. The following link includes a full list of channels which the essential pack offers: https://www.eircom.net/tv/channels

    Thanks

    Al


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭jaggiebunnet


    That is not what I was told by the eircom rep on chat at the time of ordering or led to believe in this forum.  Why would you have to pay HD for a channel that is already available free on Saorview?  Not to mention today on chat with someone from the technical unit that it was supposed to be free but eircom are unable to work out how to do so?

    more misselling by eircom - for example saying you can get 70mbs when it is isn't possible yet?

    I have worked out why my installation was done well this morning - because it wasn't eircom doing it - it was sub contractor - if it had been eircom themselves I am sure they would have screwed it up.

    Can I cancel eVision?  I do not see the point of paying for something when I am getting a less that quality picture that I can pick up for free.

    "RTE Two HD is available free of charge to all customers able to receive HD channels."


    https://www.eircom.net/tv/bundles


    lies lies and more lies??


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭jaggiebunnet


    So with the fact that it is in fact in the terms and conditions

    https://www.eircom.net/assets/static/pdf/tv/evision_tv_terms.pdf

    9. RTÉ TWO HD (together with any other Channels provided in HD format by RTÉ) is not 
     subject to the payment of a Charge

    When will I be getting RTE HD switched on ?

    Hi jaggiebunnet

    I'm aware HD is free on other platforms and I can understand your feelings. I'll chase up on this for further information and get back to you as soon as I can.

    Please see my post above - RTE HD is free on eVision - it is stated in your Terms and Conditions.

    Hi Jaggiebunnet

    Thanks for the links and attachments, I see your point. You will also find that this link states the following:

    "Great value HD
    Just €5 extra per month - no lengthy
    add-on contracts"

    Seems to be confusion on this. I have requested clarification on this for you and as soon as I have news I'll let you know right away.

    Hi Al - I pm'd you yesterday.  Can I get the HD pack switched on for free in the meantime while Eircom work out how to solve such a simple issue?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭jaggiebunnet


    So what was the point of asking for my details if after 2 days you don't bother calling?  stalling tactic?  most likely. 


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭jaggiebunnet


    3 days and still no call - Alan can I get an answer as to what is going on here?  What should I expect - do I need to cancel eVision as it is not meeting what I was promised?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,728 ✭✭✭dilallio


    Hi Jaggiebunnet - Have you heard back yet?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭jaggiebunnet


    No.  It has only been 3 or 4 days since I was asked for my contact number - there is obviously something very difficult about setting things up correctly in their system.  Not to mention the fact that eFibre users cannot log in online - and as far as I can make out cannot therefore access any of the Eircom Wireless Hubs around the  country.  It really smells of something rushed and not implemented properly.

    Hi Al - I appreciate there is only so much you can do - but to be honest I am at a loss as to how this can possibly be so difficult, especially when it has been advertised for as long as it has been.
