Vodafone Ireland 'in process of restoring service' after data service issues

Many customers were worried they will not be able to watch the Late Late Toy Show, which has just started.

VODAFONE IRELAND has said it is in the process of restoring service after issues earlier today.

This evening the company said it was experiencing interruptions on some data services.

Customers expressed their frustration on social media, with some saying they were left waiting for long periods when they called to report outages. 

And many were worried they will not be able to watch the Late Late Toy Show, which has just started.

“We have to use the internet to watch the Toy Show, mother of God it better be working before 9.30,” one woman said on Twitter. 

“Small man very worried it won’t be back on for the Toy Show,” another said two hours ago. 

In the last update from the company it said it has identified the issue and is now in the process of restoring service. 

It apologised to customers for the disruption.

    Outstanding rescue by the crew of R116 in very difficult conditions. The winch man particularly went above and beyond. Well done !!

    Fair play to all involved in the rescue, especially since our coastguard service is voluntary.

    So happy to hear he’s recovering well after being reported a critical yesterday. Glad that he was wearing a life jacket which may have helped save him. Well done to the coast guard and recovery team.
