    NTL hands down. NTL will give you 6Mb for 39.99.

    The real savings can be made if you cancel your landline and get a VOIP service (Blueface, Broadtalk, others). They will let you keep your phone number or give you a new one. Have a look at http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=542 for more info.

    I have NTL BB max and Blueface freedom basic and I don't think I would ever go back to Eircon or similar.

    I'm doing the switch over from €ircon and UTV broadband to NTL but I wasnt sure what the speed and service would be like.

    Better than Eircom's. That is for sure ;)

    I went from Eircom -> BT -> NTL

    In fairness, the quality/reliability of the broadband product from all 3 was top notch. So I didn't really have to deal with customer service from any of them.

    But NTL is faster/cheaper and I want NTL TV but have no need for a landline.
