    Hi
    Has anyone experienced calls being routed incorrectly? I am with Eir and called my sisters irish mobile today ,same no. as always (stored in my phonebook) and instead I got some Asian woman...
    I hung up, called again, and got through to my sis. She has no record of my first call though I can see it in my call records. It was the correct no. Her name and the pic were on screen but it def wasnt her...
    Anyone know what could have happened?
    Thanks

    0086 is China whereas 086 is here - would that have been it ?

    No, her number is stored in my contacts as 0035387XXXXXXX so thats not it. Like I said, I looked at the screen while on the call, to be sure and it was my sisters name and pic. It was a normal phone call, not facebook call or anything like that, so its very weird..

    I was a bit freaked out to be honest but not as much as the Asian woman who got pretty agitated wanting to know who was calling her!

    Indeed it's very odd, however I have found lately that Eir routing is a bit hit and miss - now only just a bit, I was ringing 2 different numbers during the week and I'm getting busy tone - then it rings on the next attempt with no one on the line at the far end.
