Why have I not received my eBill?

You need to make sure your email address is correct and registered with us. Additionallly you need to check your account is set up to be eBilled. You can do this by logging in to your My Account profile. Under the heading ‘Manage your account and eBill’ make sure an email address is displayed in the eBill column. If no email address is shown it means the account will not be eBilled. Click the ‘Change eBilling’ link and follow the on screen prompts to set up eBilling.

Some Internet Service Providers (ISP's) and mail providers e.g. Hotmail have antispam filters that may block your eBill before it reaches your Inbox placing it in a Junk Mail folder. Emails that have been blocked can be retrieved by following your providers instructions. If this has happened you should be able to add your Manx Telecom eBill to your list of approved senders. Check with your mail provider on how to add addresses to an approved senders’ list; they will be able to provide you with instructions or they may include an online help file on this subject.

My Call records are not shown in my eBill

Your eBill lets you see your account call details. However, due to performance limitations, you’ll only be able to drill into your call detail if you have less than 30 mobiles / and or fixed lines and fewer than 2500 calls. If your account has more than 30 mobiles / and or fixed lines and greater than 2500 calls, then the report will only display summary information. If your account has more than 30 mobiles / and or fixed lines and you need to view full details of calls online then please consider the ebill Analysis application. Ebill Analysis is ideally suited to customers with 30 or more accounts; it provides access to call details via a secure web login. You can find out more information on Ebill Analysis by clicking this link.
