    I think An Post is a cracker of a service, always seem to get the job done by the next day and have never let me down. So what do you think is the best IRISH company or service out there?

    Get a Supermacs taco fries at three in the morning and try not to think of them as a national treasure.

    Ryanair.

    Ryanair smashed the horrible wallet-ripping monopoly Aer Lingus once enjoyed.

    The Revenue Commissioners.

    I've always found the ESB/Electric Ireland very customer friendly, whether moving house or reporting a fault. The opposite of Eircom, basically. If there was a thread about the worst Irish companies, they'd win hands-down.

    I deal with Three at a business level, it's no better. Shocking support.

    I'd hate to work for them though.

    I was shocked at the great service from citybin. Always came when they said, always put them back right. Customer service was excellent. Not typical of an Irish enterprise.

    Was a shame to see greyhound take over in Galway for the sake of a cheap intro offer. Absolute shocker of a company. What can you do though? People are stupid. Now bins are collected whenever and strewn around estates like bowling pins.

    The local Super Valu for doing a savage job on breakfast rolls, bakery and deli. Now with self-service checkouts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,202 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    Another thumbs' up for City Bin.

    It's the small things, like putting your bin somewhere it won't blow away. The council and other bin companies used to feck them all over the place.

    ESB's network of car charging points is actually fantastic. Easy to use, reasonable distribution, good communication if one should be down, and free of charge.
    Exemplary.

    Ok, as bad and all as Threes coverage can be this is something I don't understand.

    The shop is there for sales. If I want to purchase something, I go to the shop. If I want customer care, I call customer care.

    I've been in a Three shop before where there was a queue out the door of people who wanted to make purchases.

    The hold up was a man at the till telling the sales assistant that Three were a disgrace a scam etc. I felt very bad for the assistant but even more frustrated that the man wouldn't do what the sales assistant was telling him to do, call customer service. He was demanding that the sales assistant call customer service for him.

    Why wouldn't he just do this himself instead of going through the bother of traveling to the store, queing, insulting the sales assistant and holding up everyone else in the store who wanted to make a purchase?

    That doesn't sound very good for a charging point.



    I'll get my coat.
