    Are there any real differences between getting the Sky BB + TV package versus getting BB with Eir and TV seperate with SKY.
    Note I don't live in the city so no option of Virgin or UPC etc

    I think you get Eir Sports free if you sign with Eir instead of Sky so that's a plus to me as it'll have the Allianz GAA leagues.

    Any other major pros and cons to way up?

    Many thanks.

    Sky offer gigabit fibre if you are in their areas, which uses Siro. If not gigabit then they are (I think) the exact same cables as Eir, so it then comes down to customer service (have been with both, they're both as poor as each other) and cost.

    Thanks. Not currently in a fibre area. Will just compare current prices so if no other real incentive. At the moment l think free eir sport will sway me to split it. Thanks
