    Hello all,
    I was wondering where i can go and compare the different broadband providers and find myself the best deal possible out there.
    I was referred to visit www.tryswitch.ie and was told it is easy to use and.................
    Please has anyone used it before?
    can i trust the informations on the site?
    If i switch online, will there be a need to call my desired provider?
    Thanks.:confused:

    No matter what i select they seem to suggest either eircom or irish broadband(not available in my area) as my only options. I'm going with UTV, so I'd have to question their process and/or data :-)

    Not saying anything against this website in particular, might be fine. But I remember checking another one before which didn't list Smart (and I think another provider) because although they were supposedly independent, they were looking for payments from the providers to include them in the list and Smart hadn't coughed up. This when I knew Smart was the cheapest option for me.

    www.callcosts.ie by ConReg is probably the only site I'd trust for independent advice.

    [edit] The results I'm getting from this are a joke. I wouldn't trust anything on that site. It's not even particularly well designed. For the first question, "How many hours do you intend spending on the internet?" the options are 0-1, 2-3, 6-10, and 7+. Jokers.
