Hmmm, I wonder was it the same guy that pissed me off last January? Young-ish guy? I posted my experience on the forum back then:

All I can say is after moaning about PSP man in Seapoint, who is seriously difficult to deal with on this forum he has vanished in the last week, either it was us or the resident senior IE manager who uses the station but it appears it has been 'eliminated'

The its not my problem line is crap, you are the face representing your company everything is your problem, sure its not his fault the other guy was on the mitch or whatever but still the 'not my problem bud' line isn't acceptable

In any business abusive language towards customer == P45 and I'd love to see them try a unfair dismissal case..

tip 1: turn on mobile phone recorder [ most of them have them ] and record the conversation ...


tip2 ; ask for the name ; if they won't give it ask for the supervisor's name and number

Well if its anything like the DB 'I'm not giving my name to no one' attitiude - he should be easily identifiable to the company from their rota or equivalent, with time & date - as he said - he started at 4.

Finally received a response from Irish rail.

Fairly disappointing reply I thought!

Ah, yes. Exceptional circumstances. Amazing co-incidence.

They say the office was closed for a long period 'due to exceptional circumstances'. And what might they be exactly?

I agree, it's not a great letter, very cut and paste looking.

Well it reads as a classic arse cover letter, passenger has got us in a corner hide hide hide. By now the two Liam's could/should know better

Note of course the lack of a plug for investment which is the classic copy and paste paragraph. Of course IE aren't investing a single euro in customer service training, well they might be but it sure isn't being experienced on the ground.
