    eFibre recently installed. Received final bill today for old a/c.

    After making multiple calls I got my new eFibre a/c number.


    I would like to order the broadband accessory TP-LINK wireless adaptor online but I can't due to the confusion with the a/c numbers. 

    Can someone from Eircom look into this for me? I must have made 10 phone calls today already.

    Tracey,

    You can close this thread. I eventually got this 'sorted'.

    I was disappointed in the way I was 'bounced' around on the phone by Eircom today. I must have made at least 12 phone calls, put on hold numerous times and sent emails too. I wasted at least 2 hours of my day.

    The main reason why I wanted to purchase this product from Eircom was that if there were any technical problems I thought Eircom would be the best people to deal with.

    Eventually I got through to someone on the eFibre team who tried the same methods I used online to buy the TP-LINK product. I was put on hold and then told that the new eFibre system wouldn't be able to handle my TP-LINK order till the end of July! I was then informed of various places where I could purchase it. This was something I was going to do earlier in the day but I held out for Eircom.

    Anyways I have purchased from Powercity and I will have it Tuesday morning.

    That was some ordeal with Eircom. Exactly how many different departments and agents are there? What a waste of a day. My own fault I suppose.
