    Hi,

    I've been in contact with the eirbusiness customer care team for over two weeks now but my issue is not being resolved, also with emails with only one email response a day from the team the process is very frustrating and drawn out. Hoping you can help solve or at least speed up the response to my issue.

    Thanks

    I'm sorry jjcooney22 - I will not have a response within the hour. We operate a 24hr response time frame here and realistically Monday will be the earliest time-frame before I have an update. If you require a swifter response please contact WebChat at www.eir.ie/chatnow.

    Thanks
    Al

    I can understand that, however none of the 24hr time frames have been stuck to as you can see from my message. Also I've been onto the chat service and they've passed me on to the business call service and then onto the business care email and now here. Surely within today you can ensure that the call that was meant to be made yesterday by a supervisor is made.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    You can ignore this for the moment, issue will all hopefully be sorted by eir management on monday.

    thanks

    Hi Tracey,

    I was dealing with Alan last week, i thought the issue had been solved but unfortunately not. I have sent an email to EirBusiness customer support, its to be directed to Richard who is the supervisor I've been dealing with. Could you possibly flag it with them so that he gets it today and hopefully responds?

    Thanks,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Just wanted to check you got my PM and if you need any more details, account details etc


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,136 ✭✭✭eir: Tracey


    Hi jjcooney22


    Apologies for delays in coming back to you. 


    We have received your PM, Al has been out but will be back tomorrow so will look after you then


    Thanks 


    Tracey

    Hi,

    Doesn't need to be Alan, really I was just hoping you could make sure the right person got my email and I wouldn't have to wait for three weeks and 10 phone calls to get a response.

    Would you not be able to do that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Hi Alan/Tracey, 

    Either able to check that the email got to the right person? When you're running a business and you have to wait for between 2 days and a week for each simple response it gets very annoying very quickly.

    Hi jjcooney22

    I would understand any feelings of disappointment here and I'm genuinely sorry for this. I have referred your correspondence to the manager of the team you have had been in contact with and I'm waiting confirmation from them that a call will be arranged.

    Thanks
    Al


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Thanks alan,

    don't need a call as i'm at a conference for the week just a response to my email would be great, and the hope that if I need to respond to it i won't have to wait for another week to get a reply.

    Ok jjcooney22

    I have now requested that they get back to your email instead - I'm so sorry for the delays with this.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Thanks Alan, 

    Hopefully they would have done it anyway without you checking, but as its going on three days since I sent it i'm not holding out much hope.

    Still no email, nearly five days later and the weekend to come.


    may have to explore other options if I don't get a response by monday morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    My original problem still hasn't been solved, plus its still taking 4 to 5 days for each response from the business customer care team. 

    I was looking for the Eir Business repair terms and conditions, a link to this is contained in section 9 of the general eir business mobile terms and conditions. However this link is broken. I was assured it would be fixed and a PDF would be sent to me on monday the 14th. wondering if you could chase this and my response.

    Hi jjcooney22



    I have been informed that this has been looked in to in full. An early upgrade has been approved and I have been informed that your were advised that eir have no plans of selling the Lumia 950 XL on the eir network as that was the handset the you were looking to get on the early upgrade but you were advised that we have the Nokia Lumia 950 which can be processed on the early upgrade.

    I have been advused that you were happy with this resolution and requested a call back from the upgrade team to process the free upgrade.

    An agent by the name of Colm attempted to contact you and left a Voice Mail . David also in the upgrade team sent customer an email yesterday with upgrade options.

    I have also had confirmation that you spoke with your MD and came back with new demands which has been found that eir cannot fulfill.

    Thanks
    Al

    'I have been advused that you were happy with this resolution and requested a call back from the upgrade team to process the free upgrade.'


    'David also in the upgrade team sent customer an email yesterday with upgrade options.'



    Hi alan copied two parts of your message above. Firstly I never said I was happy or had agreed to anything, I was told I would get an email and not a call with the handsets and details, not that I was happy to progress with it. Secondly, I'm glad you mentioned a free upgrade, thats what I assumed would be happening based on my conversation with richard, but turns out its not a free upgrade, its only free if I go on a certain plan and with a certain handset.  Thirdly as to your second point, which doesn't make much sent whatever way you look at it, david sent an email more than a week ago and not yesterday. 


    I also did not demand, i'm looking for an appropriate response based on the damage caused by Eir.


    Also I requested another response, with the terms and conditions that I had asked for and a breakdown of my calls, and I did this on monday with no response since. I also wrote this in the PM and post to you in regards the T&Cs.


    All this will be backed up by the records of phone calls i have made to eir.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    So may I please have a response as to my request for the terms and conditions. I shall be dealing with the other issue most likely with comreg and the small claims court.

    HI jjcooney22

    I will certainly request that you are called to discus this further today.

    Thanks

    i don't need to discuss it I just need a copy of eirs terms and conditions, the link in section 9 is broken.

    Hi jjcooney22


    I have had a look and can see the address was spelt incorrectly on web page..
    Should be http://www.eir. ie.businessgeneral/repairsrefunds which leads to the following:

     
    https://www.eir.ie/opencms/export/sites/default/.content/pdf/terms/eMobile_Business_terms_and_conditions.pdf
     
    Thanks
    Al


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Thanks alan,

    But you then go down to section 9 in that pdf and look at the Repairs and Refunds, click on the link there and that is also broken.

    Thanks for this - it's true, it does not lead anywhere - I will request clarification and get back to you as soon as I have more information.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    10 days after I highlighted the fault, and requested terms and conditions and still nothing. One of the Eir customer care team even admitted it was probably illegal to continue selling contracts without providing such. Another phone call made today and still no progress.

    HI jjcooney22

    It's clear that you should have the unbroken link by now however due to the day that's in it may be ext week before we have this for you. I understand that this is very important to you and I will treat this just as serious going forward.

    So, just to be clear I have again requested that the mobile support team arrange an unbroken link to T&C's emailed to you as soon as possible and I will update you as soon as I have further clarification.

    Thanks
    Al


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    The day thats in it? There's been 14 days in it so far and counting, I don't need the link just need a copy  of the pdf emailed to me.

    Apologies jjcooney22 - I just want to be transparent and honest on this. I will of course request that a PDF is sent.


    Al


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Day 20 and still haven't received the T&C's. Link still hasn't been fixed. Eir continue to sell to customers without being able to provide them with all the T&C's they are signing up to. And I've been held up three weeks unable to lodge a case with the small claims court because of it.

    Any update?

    Hi jjcooney22, 
    I have been advised that while the link to the repair piece is indeed broken, as you advised, but the rest of the statement there is the full updated T&Cs. I have been advised that the repair piece does have to be revised. I have received your detail and have contacted the manager in question around your other issue. I will have response on this as early as possible and apologies for delay.
    Tony


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    I've responded to your PM. If the T&Cs is being updated I would like a copy of the old/current t&c so that I can compare.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Day 25. 

    Rang customer care again after seeing your message. They said no, that the terms were not bein updated and not bein revised. It was just a fault. Someone is lying or someone is incompetent. Need this sorted today. 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Sent you another PM Alan.

    JJ, I understand from your posts that you are a business. Just be aware that business to business disputes are not handled by the Small Claims Court.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    Thanks, but we've had a look at things. You can file a business to business claim, you just have to have legal representation of it goes to court.

    Hi jjcooney22



    I have received your messages here and on the eir community and I have requested more information from the mobile team on why there is such a delay for the copy of terms and conditions - as soon as I have more information I will let you know.


    Al


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    And can you respond to my other question on what Eir Tony said? That the terms and conditions are being revised or updated? According to the customer care team this is defintiely not true. 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jjcooney22


    any response to my last message alan?

    Is there not some sort of priority system whereby people who ask the question first are answered first?

    HI jjcooney22



    I'm sorry, I have no further update on this yet.



    Thanks

    Ok, but what about  my question about what Tony said, is what Tony said true or not?
