    Reasonably new to Eir Vision but I'm concerned about some issues with the STB. Is it a common problem with the STB for the EPG not being able to populate some listings when moving on to the next day and further on. Also out of the blue it tells me tonight that I need to be connected to a fibre connection to view content even though i was happily watching something.

    Hi I’ve had evision for a couple of years - never had those issues

    Same. I have had the occasional fit of "You must have a valid Eir account" (which I of course do), but only very intermittently.

    I see the Eir Vision webpage has a message "Something exciting is coming soon..."

    You can't actually buy it online currently.

    I saw that as well - wonder what’s coming?

    I asked on Twitter. Told to ask on the online Chat. Seem clueless

    EDIT: They have confirmed ", I would like to inform you that eir vision is not available now" "As eir is going to launch a new product in the coming weeks."

    I renewed my Eir bundle recently and note latest bill refers to “includes access to Eir TV Standard Channel Pack” (assuming this is free?).

    I’ve googled it but can find little info on Eir TV e.g. do I need a STB these days, how to get it on TV e.g. is there an app?

    Can’t even see what channels are included......

    As referenced above website seems to be referring to new product “coming soon”.

    Out of interest does that mean service is down for current users?

    Cheers

    You say you renewed your eir contract - so did you have tv bb and telephone?

    If you had eir tv evision you would have had a stb

    The standard channel pack was /is called eir vision essential

    Hi, yes renewed contract. Eir bills on last contract stated unlimited bb with access to Eir sports - I did not use Eir sports.

    New bill refers to bb with access to Eir TV Standard Channel Pack - which I might use but don’t know how to access. Eir never mentioned a STB.

    Thanks

    You need the box. Call them about it!

    This info is specific to legacy evision customers

    On your epg the full suite of kids channels should be coming in

    also if you contact Eir there is a six month free upgrade to the Experience pack - this will give you the discovery channels, sci fi and a few extra lifestyle channels
