    hello,
    i was looking at their website

    http://www.ryanairtelecom.com

    and they seem to have very good local and national rates - much better than eircon and also better than esat, they also have really great international rates (3.95 c/min) to ten cuuntries including u.s. and u.k.

    does anybody use them and do you know if they are compatible with telestunt with which i can get great international rates using 1890, 0818, and 1530 numbers.

    p.s. another thing i like about ryanair is there's no contract unlike the new utv thing. you can cancel anytime.

    I contacted them about their rates when they launched and they never got back to me with prices....
    We ended up using Skytel

    Customers buy a set amount of landline credit (much like credit for a mobile phone). The amounts available are €40, €70 ( and €5 free) and €120 (and €10 free).

    RyanairTelecom will only be relevant to customers with reletively high International call spends on a regular basis.

    RyanairTelecom costs a minimum of €40 per top up.


    Customers must pay by direct debit or via their credit card.


    The top-up fee is billed in advance.

    A 5c minimum call charge applies.

    RyanairTelecom only offer per minute pricing

    i think i should update this list with the rates they quote on their site

    loc & nat d- 2.48
    e&w 1.19
    all mob. d 18.95
    e 15.95
    w 12.95

    plus your account is all handled on-line and is updated in real-time so you allways know where you stand. added to the fact that you can cancel anytime it seems fairly competitive all round.

    i live with my parents and we had moved to esat but my mother was convinced by a "nice" eircon lady to move back , but it's such a rip-off that we really need to move again and this seems to be one of the best deels going, i'd welcome any other suggestions.

    it all seems like a lot of trouble for a few euro considering i spend about 200 a month on fags but i hate the idea of paying them extra just because the run a semi-guilt trip on my mother.

    thanks for the replies

    Have been using them for about a year and they saved me a tonne of money. Most of my bill is calls to europe and the UK and they are by as cheep as Teleshunt or even cheaper.

    yes i agree during the day they're cheaper than telestunt but for evening and weekends telestunt would still be very handy - about 1.26 to a lot of countries. I'm fairly confident the telestunt numbers would be ok with ryanair and even if it doesn't work out it's easy enough to change again.
    thanks again for the replies. :D
