    Hi codie
     
     
    Apologies for this delay.
     
    I've found your landline number in PM's and I'm sorry to confirm that efibre is not available to you at this moment in time.
     
    Although the map says Listowell is efibre enabled, not all areas within Listowel can avail of the service as the map is for illustrative purpose only.

    Ok thanks for reply.Thats gas.I have and will never have a hope in hell of getting fibre. Cables on my road are running under and over  the road from the nearest old cabinet and new fibre cabinets which is as I said 2 kms.Eircom are fooling themselves and people like me.How many people will go ahead and order to hear sorry the map is for illustrative purpose.Timewasting or what.Whats the point in entering your phone number into the fibre checker for at all.I will try the checker in 2020 again if I'm still around.Ye will surely sort the illustrative thing by then.

    Hi codie

    I can understand your feelings on this and I'm sorry I'm unable to offer better news.

    Thanks
