    I'm a Virgin Broadband customer and am looking to sign up to Eir sport for a month to watch the world cup on my phone.

    I cannot find anywhere how I actually do this? The Eir Sport website only lists how to subscribe if you're a Sky TV customer, which I am not.

    Apparently Virgin Customers get it for free, but I can't find out on their ? I'm only Virgin broadband. Not TV.

    The full eir Sport pack is free* for eir Broadband, eir Vision and select eir Mobile customers.

    Eir Sport 1 only is free* for Virgin Media and Vodafone TV customers.

    Satellite customers need to pay €30 pm for Eir Sport 1 and Virgin Sport pack. You don’t need to be a Sky TV customers but you do need to have a Sky digibox and viewing card of some description.

    *By free I mean included in basic subscription price.

    If you join Eirmobile you can get eirsports.

    I joined for 14.99 a month plan and got the eirsport app, which i sideloaded on to my tv.

    I put the red Eir sport app on the android box but the picture isn’t great - phone dimensions

    Mine is pretty good seems to be 576 resolution, definitely watchable. and covers the full screen. Maybe check the app permissions.

    I spoke to a rep in store and they're only giving the Virgin Sport pack with Eir Sport 1 included to new broadband customers, as usual nothing for existing customers.
