Paying open eir to do a fibre connection

    I am currently thinking of moving house again and some of the properties are quite rural. I imagine the fact that they are not fibre ready has an impact on the asking prices. So with that in mind it seems logical to pay openeir a few quid to do a connection even if its not in the immediate plans and i would still be saving money overall.

    Of course i understand they dont do that. The bit i dont understand is why, they could add a mark up on the cost?

    There are companies for that , if money not an object they'll
    do it for you.
    Just a warning , it is extremely expensive for the regular person. You'll buy a brand new car just for annual running fee, don't mind installation process itself.

    I dont think you get the costs. In the UK you'd pay £3500 to go 2km extra(+ other charges, thats just base) and then you'd be paying £250/mo for at least three years.
