Best broadband deal?

muffinhead

I'm looking into getting broadband and was wondering if anyone could recommend the best ISP to do the job? I'd want to spend around €20 a month, if that was at all possible. I'm in Mayo so I think my options maybe somewhat limited at this moment in time. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Try Smart telecom. €35 Euro per month including line rental (BB effectively €11)

BT have some good new packages coming out Feb 1st (I think) but I don't know what they are off the top of my head.

From the first of February BT will have 1mb BB for €20p/m or €35p/m including line rental. Thats assumimg you are connected to a BB enabled exchange and your phoneline is suitable.
I don't think Smart is available in any exchanges in Mayo.
If you can't get it over the phoneline you'll have to investigate wireless.
Here's the link to the BT press release:

Smart is the best deal if you can get it in your area

€35 per month for line rental and 2 meg broadband with no download limits

Thanks for the replies! Unfortunately I can't get Smart Telecom where I am so it looks as though the BT option is the next best. Any other suggestions?
