Paying more and getting less...

    Hi,

    I am currently on the "eir Complete Broadband & Phone" package which is costing me roughly €55 euro a month. I am not receiving anything near an acceptable speed for this price. My speed often drops below 1 MBps, sometimes down into the hundreds of kilobytes. I often work from home and have been frustrated many times by the inadequate broadband speed that I am getting to my house.

    Can you please explain why new customers are able to pay €35 for a landline, broadband and mobile deal, and speeds of up to 100 Mbps, while I sit here paying quite a bit more for much poorer service? 

    I understand that speeds will be 'up to' X MBps, and you can't guarantee an exact speed, but previously I had been getting 3Mbs and above, which I would be more than happy with.

    Thanks in advance.
