Need phone socket - Dont want Eircom

The Davestator · 2013-05-01 15:29:03

Hi Folks - I've recently moved house and although the phoneline wires are there, there is no 'facing' (phone jack) attached. The wires are simply sticking out of the wall. I want to get broadband in. I'm sure Eircom could put a jack in, but would I have to take their broadband? Had it before and it wasnt great. Sky cant do…
