51444

Yesterday on the DART I attempted to report a tissue seller via 51444. As I currently live in the north I have a UK phone. It refused to send the message. Is this because you have to have an Irish phone/simcard or was it just not working?

These type of numbers are usually restricted so its because you don't have an ROI network.

This is an issue that could affect tourists and other travellers with non-Irish networks, and IÉ need to provide a text/phone number that's not locked to Irish networks.

A useful feature would be to connect it to the on-board WiFi. Why not have a button on the page where you connect to the WiFi showing "Report a problem on the train"?
