    €45 is their cheapest package. Eircom or Vodafone will be a very similar price but slower. You may have had an older deal or an introductory rate.

    Yes on their site 45 is cheaper. But they always been call by customer and they make deal to customer. So I thought , it would be good to know any good price people getting.

    Other than Sure Eircom and Sky there. I heard bit issue with SKY but sure, it wont kill me , just to internet

    thought they do deal people when you call them . But think 45 is dear enough.

    I can find cheaper provider in middle of Dublin.
    So any people get special price from them.

    23euros per month was for the few months of your new contract, 45euros per month is what you pay after your introduction price

    I pay €35 a month for 250mb, basic Tv package and some mad phone package. Was paying I think €40 or something, and they cold called me and advised if I take TV to the package, which is "free" that it reduces my package down to €35 for an entire year.

    Had no intention of leaving so was happy with that. Horizon box just sits in the spare room in the wrapper, kept my existing router and infrastructure

    There was a ****up by the agent who processed the deal, where I was charged €80 for a router, don't know why, but it was put as credit on my account which was fine.

    I don't think your going to get better than €45pm. Eircom recently increased it's cheapest broadband package from €52 to €62 for new customers.

    UPC Virgin €45pm 240MB

    Eircom €62pm up to 100mb
    Vodafone €45pm up to 100mb
    Sky €40* up to 1000mb
    Magnet €57.99 100mb
    Imagine €22 up to 10mb


    *BT connection in the exchange. If it hasn't €50pm

    If you started as a new customs and If the price has only gone up, chances are you still have 6 months contract left.

    Everyone thanks for your answer. Yes you are right, UPC is best internet. I will call and see they would do any deal.

    Thanks again
