Switching FTTH providers

Decoda · 2020-08-21 16:36:58

Hi, Currently paying €58.99 to Eir for 150mb FTTH and out of contract since December. Thinking of moving to Airwire and their similar package Prostep 2 for €49? Has anyone done this and could you let me know what the process involved? Do I need to cancel with Eir etc Many thanks, D.

Hi there,

Just about 'downtime' when switching FTTH providers. From what I understand, the new provider needs the line to be inactive. So is the best case scenario about 24 hours of downtime? Have the old provider set to cancel service on a Monday and then the new provider due to go live on a Tuesday sort of thing...? Sounds difficult to get them both done on the same day?

Cheers
