    [font=GT-Walsheim-Regular, Arial]Hello Eir. My partner got a phone call from a UK-based number this afternoon from a person telling her there was a fault with her Eir broadband connection and that they would like to debug it via remote-control of her computer. Is this legitimate? Do you at Eir ever in fact do this kind of thing?[/font]
