    So I have had a call from an eircom rep saying that I canupgrade to fibre broadband but I am still left with a number of questions.

     

    I am currently on 8mb NGB but because of the line and theUp To clause I max out at 3.5 which is less than half of the max. When I enquired about the fibre speed I was just told Up To 70 but they could not guaranteeany minimum or tell me what speeds I would actually receive, and the only way I would find out is when the technician came to do the install.

     

    Is there any way you can tell me what speeds I am likelyto receive before I sign a contract?

    I can’t seem to find the fibre prices on your website,where can I find them?

    Your speed will be determined by how far from your local Cabinet you are. vDSL (tech being used for eFibre) works best up to 1KM from a cabinet and the closer you are the closer you will get to the Max speed. Some more details here

    http://www.eircom.ie/efibre - No prices yet but up to 50mbits will be a free upgrade for existing customers

    Hi,

    In relation to Fibre I’m afraid we have no accurate information until after the launch date 20th of May, we can then give you prices etc.
    We can never guarantee speeds on any broadband service so Fibre will be 'up to' speeds also, however we will be able to tell you the 'up to' speed before ordering it

     



    Thanks


    Tracey
