Smart in Ballyboden D16

SVGeorge

Hello All,
Anyone managed to get Smart BB in Ballyboden Dublin 16 yet? I applied when Smart 1st advertised their "Free Rent for Life" earlier this year. Initially promised delivery July or Aug, now we are well into Oct & no sign yet of the big pipe!
At this rate, the "Free Rent for Life" won't be for too long.

Its on their build programme. Trust me when they do finally arrive in Ballyboden I'll be the first to jump ships.

Hello TimTim,
I know it is on their build program, but does that mean anything? Are Smart actually rolling out anywhere at the moment?

I remember a Smart employee on here - Garfield - who seemed to give out sound info. Is he still available for comment?

Yes they have many exchanges in Dublin done and many users up and running on their service.

Ballyboden will not be live this side of Christmas, sorry.

Any update on approximate time frames for the Tallaght exchange?

Hello All,
Just posting an update on Smart in Ballyboden D16 - There is no update & are now 2 mths past their original latest deadline of Aug 2005.

It would also seem that it is up to the individual to find out what is happening - Smart don't get in touch with signed up prospects to let them know if there is a delay or a new target date.

Hello All,
Now Mar06, more than a year after signing up with Smart and still no word on BallyBoden.
Let me see -
1st Deadline was Jul05, Latest Aug 05.
2nd Deadline was nearer Xmas05.
3rd Deadline was Jan or Feb06.

Maybe Smart do need a bit of magic after all! Your man waving is arm thro' thin air is how I feel waiting on them...
