    Hi Eir , Can you tell me the official process for logging a complaint with your company.
    It has taken over a month for my broadband order to be processed , Eir needed to create 3 orders / accounts to get to the point of me receiving and installation date which is over two weeks past my initial request date which I was promised by one of you sale team would be fulfilled.
    Based on that I canceled with my existing provider and am now without service. And Eir are unable to escalate the install to a sooner time even though all the order errors were in the Eir systems.

    In a similar situation, decided to connect to Eir in July 4th, BB TV,Phone etc, advised sales at the time I require a phone line from road to house via a pole. Technician called on August 28th to install, confirmed that could not connect via ducting and will need to get a pole erected and run the cable that way. Several days later Eir cancelled my account and created a new account. After several phone calls to support asking when this will be done i received an email it will be installed on October 6th!!!! I again contacted support outlining that I am now without BB and is there anyway they could revise this date? I believed I was making head way with this and was beginning to believe that it will be done this Monday the 3rd. I received a call from the Open Eir connections team and got told that the technician will be there on Monday, I queried the availability of a pole, I was told it was installed, which it is not. After several phone calls, it appears that what they mean is on Monday a technician will call to my house to do a survey and the connection, at which time he will confirm to Eir that a pole is required. I asked can they not use the detail from my cancelled account, which they cancelled, that a pole is required and go from there, apparently this is not possible, a technician will need to go to my house and do a survey!!! Unbelievable!! I wonder will they then cancel my account again and this whole merry go round start again with a new account!!???

    What a joke of a process..... I have been promised numerous phone calls back over the various days none of which materialised.

    I wonder how they can function. Sending out a technician to the same address to perform a survey to confirm what needs to be done just because they cancelled and created a new account, a joke.....
