Eircom prices for non NGB

Zimmerframe

On the Eircom site, I see the link for broadband products.

https://secure.eircom.net/apps/talktime/hero_landing.jsp

but they seem to show only NGB prices.
Or what's Eircom's current monthly price for "up to 7Mb" (i.e. non NGB)

I noticed that alright.

I'm on eircom's bog standard 1Mb bundle which is costing me more than the basic NGB bundle

Even after the 6 month offer when the basic NGB goes up to €45 per month, that's still less than what I am paying at the moment.

Hi Zimmerframe,

Thanks for your post and apologies for the delay replying.

eircom's standard new packages have been setup on the website as above and these are designed to make it easier to view and evaluate bundle products.

The following website may also help if you need to look through eircom broadband and phone packages and general add-ons:

Thanks for the reply Ant, unfortunately that link shows nothing about broadband. Looking at the coverage map, most of the country seems to be in a non NGB area, but there seems to be no mention of non Ngb prices.

Anyway, I just want to know, what is the cheapest "up to 7mb" broadband only (non Ngb) package per month.

Just checked my last bill;

- eircom talktime friends €51.22
- Broadbamd Home Starter [up to 1Mb capped at 10GB €41.30
- Talktime/Broadband Bundle discount - €18.26

total 74.26 excluding VAT.
Total including VAT €91.34 for two months.

I'd like to know why the most basic eircom package is more expensive than the basic NGB package 8Mb

Also the link on my bill has expired for information on talktime packages www.eircom.net/talktime

Try here Zimmerframe, but when you click on the more details link, this brings you to NGB!!!!

Hi DeadSkin,

Thank you for posting on the Boards Forum and pointing out the website link. I have already advised our online team on this and I apololgise for any inconvenience caused.

Our new package bundles and add-ons are now outlined on the following website :

eircom Phone /Broadband Packages

*NGB is categorised as a different product to standard broadband and hence it is is priced differently. eircom are attempting to roll out NGB nationwide and as soon as this is available in your area, you will be automatically upgraded for free.

*NGB, or Next Generation Broadband, is essentially fibre powered broadband, which guarantees consistent download speeds, whatever time of the day, even at peak times.
NGB is also a free upgrade up to *8Mb (or up to*24Mb in cases).

ADSL is rate adaptive based technology, which means that your broadband connection speed is governed by the distance from your premises to the exchange. See www.ngb.ie for more information.

If you need further information on broadband, or your bill just let me know, or call directly :

Customer Care : 1901 freephone

Regards,
Ant
