    They have been very busy upgrading their cables in the Dublin 9 area. They are now offering broadband, telephone rental and call service. Anyone done any research on this apart from the standard "Eircom is sh1te" comments?

    The phone line rental is €10. Braodband 1mb works out at €19.99 after a three months trial at €9.99. I think you have to sign for a year.

    Good luck with that one, i had so many troubles with NTL. you've be lucky to get a way from NTL without paying off fees for breaking contract with them., Also the deal that you quoted is not so good if you will calculate what are you going to pay in total after the trial period.
    They are so nice and happy to deal with you only at the beginning, after that you will spend hours on the phone queues waiting for some Bill or Jack to help you because they billed you incorrectly. After 4 month of complaints and battling with them i got my refund check, swear to god never will bring my business back to this cruel company.

    hi, prices work out:
    digital tv 25.99
    1Mb broad band 19.99
    tel line 4.00
    per month.
    when you take all three products.
    tel line is a tenner if you dont take broadband.

    you can also add on call packs to the phone service.

    phone works in Galway

    Yeah I've tried to explain that their service is not reliable and that I want to keep my eircom landline, I do this nicely and then they give the crap about 6 months free rental and that I have an Internet phone and they still try and make me sign up for it and tells me the service does not break down in my area, I was tempted to say "how would you know if your living in Bombay?:mad:

    good to have competition, pity it is from a company whose customer service makes eircom look good.
