What Are the Best Eir Contact Numbers?

image of a smart phone

Whether you have queries about your local 5G network, mobile, mobile broadband, Eir TV or are simply looking for more information on broadband utilities these are the Eir customer care numbers you need.

What's the Eir Broadband Contact Number?

If you have any issues regarding either your Eir fibre broadband or your mobile broadband, you should get in touch as soon as possible to report the issue.

If you have an idea of what the problem is, you can ring the Eir broadband contact number 1901 to get help straight away.

Is There an Eir Phone Number for Business Customers?

Eir business customers are provided with a choice of a few phone numbers with which to make contact. These numbers are based on the size of your company, and how many employees you have. The appropriate number for your business will be established when initially taking out services with Eir.

Eir Business Service Contact Number Opening Times
Small Business Sign Up 1800 400 200 Mon-Fri 9am-5:30pm
Large Business Sign Up 1800 242 556 Mon-Fri 9am-5:30pm
Customer Support 1800 601 701 Mon-Fri 9am-5:30pm
Technical Support 1901 Mon-Fri 9am-5:30pm

While Eir has listed their business service hours as commencing from 9am, the time of service closure has not been listed. It can be safely assumed though that this will conform with standard business operating hours of Monday to Friday, from 9am to 5pm.

Are Eir Contact Numbers Free?

Depending on which service provider you are with, and what the details of your exact call or data plan are, some numbers will have no extra charge, whereas others might. The best thing to do is to check your policy information with your service provider before making your call.

Are 1800 free numbers in Ireland? 1800 numbers are generally freephone numbers, however, they can still count towards your total number of minutes. This means that while you may not be charged for calling them, it is still possible that if you exceed your contractual minutes, your network provider could levy a charge.

How Can I Know How Long the Queue Is?

Additionally, you can check Eir’s handy average call-wait-time time facility to see how long you can expect to be in the call queue before getting through to an agent. This way if your call is non-urgent you can monitor this facility and call when they are experiencing a low call volume to save on your minutes. Alternatively, you can also seek to make contact with Eir through one of their non-calling channels.

Are There Eir Contact Forms Available?

If you don’t have the time to call Eir or are looking to make contact out of service hours, then contact forms can be a useful facility for you. Found in the Contact Us section of their website, are several forms covering numerous subjects. These forms allow you to submit your query or notification to Eir by filling out your personal details, the details of your query, and simply pressing submit.

After this, a member of customer support will review your form when possible, and take any necessary steps regarding updating your account, looking into a matter or getting back in touch with you to discuss the subject further.

Which Eir Contact Number Do I Log a Complaint With?

Sometimes things simply don’t go as they should, whether for your mobile bill pay, TV or broadband contracts. While these experiences aren't exactly fun, it is important to be able to reach out to your supplier to discuss and resolve the matter. The Eir complaints process is relatively simple.

Can I Contact Eir on Social Media?

You certainly can! In this era, it is uncommon for any company not to have a social media presence. Eir is no exception to this rule and maintains an active presence on both its Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Following these accounts is a great way to keep track of what offers are available, hunt for broadband deals, check service disruptions, or raise any questions or complaints. These accounts are staffed Monday to Friday from 9am to 7pm, Saturday from 9am to 5:30, and on bank holidays from 10am-5pm.

As always though, be careful about what information you post in a public forum. Details such as your address, contact information, and bank information should never be given unless you can confirm that your data is secure and inaccessible to the public.

What is the Eir Contact Email?

Unusually, Eir does not list an email on their website. Instead, they encourage customers to make contact with them either via the above Eir phone numbers or contact forms.

Eir have had their webmail facility for a long time that enables customers to get in touch with them through specialised client software. This used to be the @eircom.net email addresses but currently Eir is now fading them out. Currently, Eir Webmail is not available to new users but you can still access your details through logging into your account.

The levying of an additional €9.99 per month for what is essentially an email service is something quite unusual and is not likely to interest a good number of new customers who can otherwise avail of an existing email account without charges.

Can I Make Contact Through an Eir App?

At present, Eir offers two applications that can be downloaded onto your PC/Mac, or mobile device. These are the Eir Talk, and Eir TV mobile apps. While the launch of these apps helps you to utilise your landline subscription and TV options with greater freedom and accessibility, they do not offer any unique contact options at this moment. An alternative would be to create and login to your My Eir account.

Along with the usual account management options, My Eir allows you to send up to 400 web texts, check support options, and browse their extensive catalogue of FAQs. Though this again does not provide any unique contact options, it can be a useful resource to utilise, and may help you to solve your problem, removing the need for contact.

OpenEir Contact Information

OpenEir is a subsidiary of Eir, and operates their fixed-line network for both ADSL and fibre connections, allowing superfast broadband to reach both homes and businesses. OpenEir’s contact details primarily come in the form of the following email addresses.
