    Hi,
    I was recently reading that in the UK you can pay BT or whoever the phone provider is a fee to install a fibre connection line to your business in a non fibre area...I was just wondering do eir offer a similar service here?
    cheers

    BT Openreach will allow you to pay the cost of extending from a cabinet to your business, usually a few grand.

    Eir provide a business NGN ethernet service, where they will custom-build actual optical fibre to your business.

    It's pricey and takes months. Good stuff when done though. Expect to wait 3-6 months for install and pay €1250 to tens of thousands for install and maybe €1,000+ per month. This is carrier fibre, not to be confused with retail eFibre. You will get symmetrical service, excellent uptime and an SLA for repair.

    97 covered it all above, but the key point is it never applies everywhere, only when you're within a feasible distance from an existing POP, and have the cash to afford it.
