Had 1st dose phfizer on 29th May in the Aviva.
Got text tonight re second dose 28th June in The Aviva. However due to work commitments and childcare too I had to request a new date by replying New to the text.
The reply said they'll be in touch in the "coming weeks" with a new date.
I thought I'd be given a date within days of the 28th? Or will it really be weeks before I'm given a new date?
Im 48.

Just got a text to confirm new date for next Wed at 8.55am in the Avivia.

That's good to hear, I got a time for my second that I can't make. Wonder does it matter how you request a new one, text, helpline or the portal? Shouldn't matter I guess. I rejected mine in the portal before the text came (text still came after). Don't want to text back in case they double book.

For completeness and as an indication of the HSE's "four week gap" for Pfizer/BioNTech, I just got the second text: the appointment for my second jab is on Tuesday 29th June, back at Croker, so 30 days all told.

Anyone in early 40s getting Citywest or Punchestown appointment texts today for next week?

I got a text yesterday evening, it was about 2 hours after I had noticed the appointment on the portal.

Cupra280 · 25-06-2021 4:11pm

My partner had their 2nd dose on Pfizer in Helix on Tuesday (age 56). Text was received the previous Thursday. So, 5 days notice.

A friend on mine in Beaumont (41, turned 41 the day before 41 year olds could register!), so register on the day, and also had their first dose on Tuesday in the Helix. Also 5 days notice by text.

My 28 days in tomorrow. Still Awaiting Appointment 2 on the portal.

Not sure. I just did it via text and I got the new text today, less than 24 hours later, confirming change from Monday to Wednesday.

I registered with shortened version of my first name (foreign). I'm just thinking it was bad idea and should have typed exactly as it is in my ID. Anyone made the same mistake and knows how to rectify?

You can change your name as per your passport in the vaccination centre itself. Just tell them about the concern. I did the same too.

Anyone in Dublin, under 40, got an appointment? There's definitely people in their 40s still waiting so it seems a capacity increase in Dublin would be a good thing as I can't see the demographics allowing any catch up and there is a renewed impetus on getting vaccinations.

25-06-2021 4:44pm

40, South Dublin. Appointment next Wednesday for first dose.

I did not receive a text. People should check the website daily.

Husband dob early 1972, had 1st Pfizer in Cork on may 22nd. Only called for July 1st for his second. 40 days. A friend of his, same year was also called, more here it seems. So a wait of beyond 30+ days isn't beyond possibilities.

Husband got his text this afternoon. 38 but he registered a day early on the 20th. Appt booked for the 28th in UCD. Our neighbours/friends in the Dún Laoghaire-Shankill areas aged between 40-44 all got their first dose at least 2 weeks ago and my husbands now getting his earlier than people in their early 40s we know in West Dublin!

By the looks of it, Cork, Limerick and Athlone are great places to be vaccinated if you're in your 30s.
I'm from North Kildare, and am curious to see if they'll send me over to Dublin or down to South Kildare. Can't wait to get it ðŸ€ž

Yes ring the HSE vaccine helpline but would advice to make sure GP is confirmed as some of them cancel last minute due to low stock.

Thanks, I gave them a buzz there. They told me they would still send a message when I was due a vaccine, at that stage I should call them and let them know the doctor has already done my vaccine… hopefully.

The GP did send me a message confirming the appointment but I wouldn’t be overly surprised if it was cancelled due to the shortage.

Live in City Centre.

Getting the second one on Tuesday 29th. Very impressed that despite all the cyber stuff, it's still 4 weeks on the nose.

Less impressed that it's at 6pm so I'll miss the England vs Germany match.

Feckers:-) I must have missed the "Will you be watching the Euros?" tickbox on the website.

Just go at 3, the time isn’t enforced.

ray7777 · 25-06-2021 8:45pm

Is there anyone else aged 40 West Dublin still waiting for appointment? Over 3 weeks going. Feels like we're the most unluckiest in the country right now being assigned (most probably) to Citywest. Why don't they just spread us out more evenly across centers, instead of putting all eggs in one basket. Also If you're going by age finish the whole cohert first instead of vaccinating next one.

PopTarts · 25-06-2021 10:08pm

Do appointments get sent out over the weekend or will it be Monday now?

So slow down the vaccination plan. That's what your idea would cause.
Dublin is a bit slower on the 40+ but it will fall back in line in time especially with getting those AZ second doses out of the way.

Still no appointment, 41 years old. Registered on the 5th June. Rang the helpline on Thursday, they said they would escalate it, whatever that means. Starting to feel really down with it now, so frustrating knowing that they are vaccinating thirty somethings at my local MVC.

If they finished all of each cohort before moving on to the next one you wouldn't even be registered by now, let alone waiting for an appointment.
