Home Phone - transfer to new provider

EMitch

My folks who are elderly need to cut costs and have been with Imagine for the longest time and their monthly bills are out of control. We're looking move them to a provider that offered unlimited calls to landlines and mobiles but don't need any broadband. Eir have a 49.99 p/m contract that would save them a considerable amount of money if there were no surprise fees along the way. It increases after a year and they're fine with that so long as they know what their monthly bill is going to be

Anyone have any experience with EIR's customer service and reliability of service?

I am with Pure telecom for landline and internet for 5 + years ,they were a bit cheaper then Eir for same service .Never any problem when I contact their customer service about any problem ,I would say the same technicans do Eir maintenance ,

I am dealing with eir for a neighbor who is paying about €60... would you not consider giving them a mobile for a Month to try...

They just like having the landline for some reason. I've tried to convince them otherwise but for now it's a matter of trying to get them onto a cheaper plan and maybe review again in a year.... But I'm 100% in agreement with you.

You may have options.. sign up direct debit install pin and say nothing... i know a guy who got vodafone to give him the same number for and mobile except for 087 etc... it might be worth exploring... are you aware of this panic alarm thing but it may be for people living alone... I am doing pretty well the same for a neighbor but he is happy to run with the mobile...

Pure are probably the best option.

No frills, no maths degree to work out the deal.

Nice and simple
