I am forced to use three broadband as I can't stand eircom. And three is the only network who has 3g coverage when you place a modem beside the windows. Everytime I call their customer care I fell like jumping off cliffs of Moher : I get 50kbs dl 20kbs up speeds on mobile broadband. I admit three have a good deal with all you can eat data. But they always blame my location and my house and the modem that came from them and never their service for providing broadband speeds that barely even reach the modern day standard. When I was with them on mobile it was the same problem.
They always have a catch to their plans!
On meteor I signed up for what was advertised. No more no less. For 25 a month. Free calls/texts 200 mins and texts and 1GB of internet. Show me a network that can match that in value.
For me it had Omnia 7 and that's plenty
Galaxy S/S2, HTC Desire S, Sensation, N8, Wildfire, Xperia Arc. What else do u need. IPhone coming will just fill up the missing niche.
And with 02/Meteor sharing networks soon. It will make it best value network in Ireland.

The data bundle on the iPhone is different from that of Three Broadband available via the "Three Stick" which like yourself is 15GB for €19.99/month; Three customers on the NBS National Broadband Scheme get 25GB a month for €19.99/month, if your location is totally broadbandless and Three is your only option then you might be able to get their Satellite service on the NBS which would give better speeds than you were getting.
Although you say you can't stand Eircom, yet praise Meteor when they are one and the same? You could always use Eircom or Vodafone DSL broadband because using Three as your broadband supplier when you have DSL available to you is a bit of a joke as there is no comparison in the service. I use Eircom for my DSL and also use my iPhone tethered so I have two internet connections and if I want to download a massive multifile .zip or .rar file I can use both simultaneously on the laptop and Desktop to speed things up.0 -

Oh and btw u can only use one internet connection at a time
unless ya have a dual LAN port, even that doesn't speed it up by much just provides more consistency between speeds. Having DSL,WiFi and tethering isn't going to speed anything up
I'm not praising meteor. I'm just stating the obvious. There is no network in Ireland for me that I would feel that I'm actually getting great value their all in England :P 0 -

With 3 you are entitled to an upgrade after 12 months of the 18 (or 24 month) contract, provided you sign a new contract. Does anyone know if this is the case with Meteors longer duration plans?
Really
I'm on the iPhone 4 and am on a 2 year contract, if the iPhone 5 or whatever was out in a years time could I renew and get it at a lower cost? 0 -
