Billed when I am no longer a customer

    Hi

    I received an email telling me that my bill is over €300. However, I have cancelled my EIR subscription and returned all my equipment.

    My cancellation was within the 14 day cooling off period so as far as I am aware I should not have received this bill.

    When I try to call up and resolve this issue I am greeted by an automated machine which demands I enter my account number. I enter my account number and find that it is not accepted. The is no way to talk to a human. For the same reason I cannot sign up to myEir so I am completely in the dark as to why I am being charged this bill.

    I have tried phone calls, emails and online chat all with no response or success.


    This has been ongoing for a number of months now and I had given up on trying to resolve this as it was taking up far too much time. However, I am now being told that if I do not pay this bill a Debt Collection Agency will be notified and my credit rating will be affected. As I said I have had no way to contact Eir until a friend suggested that I try here. 

    Can someone look into this for me and tell me what the issue is?

    Regards
    Ian
