    Hello,

    I am enquiring about the availability of eFibre in my area, I was informed it would be Spring of this year, but still nothing.

    Any ideas?

    Actually, just checked the interactive map and is saying it's available now....
    Funny because I did sign up to be notified when it was available...

    What do I have to do to get eFibre?
    I was told it would be automatically switched.

    Hi Macca07

    Sorry to hear you were told it's an automatic switch - that's inaccurate as a specific order for efibre needs to be placed upon your request.

    To order eFibre feel free to contact eircoms sales team on free phone 1800503303 or get in touch with them via WebChat at www.eircom.ie/chatnow

    Cheers
    Al

    After I saw your post, I checked as well and now we're enabled, we've been waiting two years and were told that we would be switched as soon as it was enabled, but obviously that didn't happen.

    Ya, very frustrating. I also signed up to be notified when it did become available in my area, obviously no one is checking that either...

    Hi Macca07

    An 18 month contract will commence from when the eFibre is installed. The previous 8 months are not included as the eFibre has it's own terms and conditions of service.

    Thanks

    Hi Alan,

    I was wondering if you could tell me is it possible to get out of contract with Eircom?
    I want to upgrade to eFibre, but being charged ridiculous prices to upgrade, which I can't understand.
    It seems like Eircom don't want to hold onto customers?

    Thanks
