Compensation for outage on 2nd October

Hi guys,

 

as we said on Facebook earlier this week we're extending everyone's membership for 48 hours as compensation for last week's outage. On top of that those of you who have a Guido and Duke membership will receive an additional 60 minutes of calls.

 

 

When will this happen?

 

We will apply the change to your account this Friday.

 

 

What if my membership runs out before Friday?

 

If you buy your membership before Friday you will get your additional 48 hours then.

 

 

What if I haven't renewed my membership by Friday?

 

You will receive the additional 48 hours for the next membership you buy (it might take a few days for it to show up on your account but don't worry, it will be there)

 

 

Hopefully this will help in some way towards the stress and rubbish experience from last week.

 

If you want to get the lowdown from the technical team about what actually happened, you can get it here.

Hi 

 

I received my extra 48 hours.  It is good to see you made an effort to compensate as other networks would not compensate in similar circumstances.

I got a message sayin my internet was gone so i got an add on as my plan wasnt up till sunday but i stil have no internet... i also topped up my plan... the don and its still not working

If you ran out of interenet allowance and bought an internet add-on but it did not work then that is strange/wrong.

What does your online account say about internet allowances/add-ons?

 

If you bought a new membership now but your current membership is only up on Sunday then your new membership will have stacked and will kick in when the current one expires. It doesn't terminate the current membership prematurely and kick in immediately. All memberships always run their full monthly course (+2 free days this time around).

Illiteracy would indicate you would be better off with O2 anyway.

This thread is about the previous outage back in October.

Nothing to do with the outage the other day in December.

There is no compensation for the latest outage.

Instead 48 are making a donation to charity:

 

48 and the PMV Trust (www.pmvtrust.ie)

 

Hope this helps.
