    So I pay for vodafone at home 35 euro / month. That is on Eircom network. Same speeds, same network.

    So if contract is for 18 months - that is 35 x 18 months = 630 euro

    Eircom has offer half price for 6 months (24 euro) and than 48, so for 18 months = 720 euro.

    I am comparing broadband (unlimited) as I have (as many many others) no interest in landline phone.

    So I want to ask if there is any reason to switch from Vodafone to Eircom, or are you happy to be more expensive broadband provider on your own network ? Do you plan to introduce broadband only plan (I think you already had it while ago) that would not bundle 'Off-peal calls' and so make you more expensive than your competition?

    I used to be Eircom customer, switched to Vodafone as they also had half price offer for 6 months few years ago, and I wouldn't mind to switch back to eircom, but I am surprised you do not offer good value.


    EDIT: And that is online offer for limited time, as normaly you charge 48 euro for unlimited plan with 30GB allowance? That is by miles worse deal than your competition.

    Hi 198321


    Unfortunately I will be unable to offer reasons behind or for eircoms pricing structures however if you do wish to explore options on packages and costs please feel free to contact our sales team on free phone 1901. I have been informed that there are no plans to offer a solo broadband package at this moment in time.

    Thanks
    Al
