Just got a mail from Smart - service now available in Blanchardstown Exchange

"I am writing in connection to a previous application made for Smart Broadband.

I am delighted to inform you that Smart Broadband is now available in your area!

Interesting, 'cause I get this from their website:

Your phone number 182***** is serviced by the BLANCHARDSTOWN exchange.
This exchange is not on the Smart Broadband Network Build Programme.

Please check back again at a later date.

Just for a Laugh;
I typed in The smart telecom Support Number 014699300 to see if smart broadband was available for them. The resulting message says:

Your phone number 014699300 is serviced by the CITYWEST exchange.
This exchange is not on the Smart Broadband Network Build Programme.

Please check back again at a later date

Lol, do you think they are using Eircom???:D

Nope, they'll be using their own network. I have Smart Telecom and if I put my phone number into their line checker it says the same. This is due to their line checker only checking Eircom numbers and not their own number ranges.

Its the same if you try to test a Smart number on an eircom (or their reseller's) line checkers - they have no data on the Smart numbers

Pizzahead, you have a wonderful sense of humour.

I'm in Cremore Heights, Dublin 11 and have had Smart for a few years - very pleased with it. I'm on the whitehall exchange. As far as I know you'll have to go with eircom first:(
