    Does anyone know of the best broadband only deal for light usage ( circa 10 GB per month)?

    Bonkers.ie only compares BB & phone packages.

    Thanks in advance

    But I dont think it's that price standalone - you need another service too (i.e. phone or TV) OP was looking for standalone I think

    Yeah, Vodafone is the best right now for broadband IMO.

    Eircom Broadband-only is €38/month (30G limit) or €43 for unlimited. Dearer than VF but the early cease penalty is not as onerous as VF. VF insist of being paid right out to the end of the 18 months, whereas Eircom charge €150 reducing each month as you get towards the end of the 18 months, and you don't keep paying rental for what you are not using. It's not shown on their website and I can't find the hard data on the terms but that was what Eircom told me a couple of days ago.

    Some of the introductory Eircom promotional bundles (€24 eVision, phone etc.) seem to be better than this BUT again watch what happens if you change plans or cease early - all "discounts" suddenly disappear and you will get retrospectively charged the full whack. None of this is a problem if you know you'll be good for the full 18 months.
