Are agents on phone and web chat trained in Eirs code of practice for complaints?

    There appears to be a lack of familiarity with the complaint escalation process among Eir customer care staff.

    Can you confirm that all customer care staff are trained in the code of practice for complaints?

    Hi paddy19, 

    Yes, I can confirm that all staff are trained in the code of practice for complaints. 

    Thanks,

    I spoke to 3 agents who were not aware of this and I had to read the customer charter to them.

    I emailed through the complaints form Wednesday the 6th and received a call on Friday the 8th - no knowledge of Eirs complaint procedure.

    I called at 9:10 am on Thursday the 7th and Friday at 9:30 on Friday the 8th.

    Each time I have promised a call or email form a supervisor who could issue a formal complaints number, none materialised. 

    Easy to manage complaints when you refuse to take them.

    "Easy to manage complaints when you refuse to take them."

    ComReg will in fairness, follow up on complaints after 10 days even if you did not get a complaint number,
    when emailed at consumerline@comreg.ie

    Hi Grainne,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I think there is sample evidence that this training is not effective.

    What action is Eir taking to remedy this non compliance with the code of practice?
