Serious mix up with my eir mobile account/billing

    Hi there,

    Once again, I'm having serious issues with eir billing. I'm being charged for the third time in a row for an unpaid direct debit fee. I rang up about it and you have credited me the first 2 times back for a total of 36.90, but yet again my new bill has the charge of 18.45.

    My account DOES NOT have direct debit setup, as I've already explained on the phone which was confirmed by a colleague of yours, hence the aforementioned credited amount.

    Now, the issue seems to be you're confusing my account with another, as any emails I have about the bill do not have my name but my mothers. My mother had an account with you on your old system which she cancelled with you around 4 years ago(which we also had serious issues with when cancelling, I'm only mentioning now as your system obviously has information getting confused in it). As a result, I believe the issue is that your old system and new system are getting confused with each other.

    I need to get this resolved quickly, as it's being going on for ages. Trying to get through to your phone lines takes anywhere from 30-60 mins. I don't have the time to deal with this like that as I work, nor the need for the stress or the cost of ringing your phone lines which I should be credited for. Can someone please sort this out asap?! I can pm any account details needed, or the emails I'm receiving for the bill with the wrong name.

    Best regards,

    Rob

    Hi Kellie. My bill is back to normal now, so thank you for looking after that, but I haven't received a refund for the unpaid direct debit of 18.45. Can this be sorted out, please?
