eircom getting really desperate now

Sponge Bob

If you have been disconnected for a year they will let you back free for 10 months now with NO LINE RENTAL and free connection as long as the line is there.

They have also gotten rid of the 6 month MINIMUM DSL CONTRACT and now a bundle OR dsl only contract with them is for 12 months MINIMUM.

eircom were running this particular promotion regionally until last week ( in the south) but gave up and made it national. I don't know if they will discount the €25.36 a month for 10 months off a bundle, better email them and get it in writing.
