No Landline in apartment - Broadband Options

oisin_reme

Hi, I live in an apartment building in Dublin 2, currently have broadband and TV with Virgin but the price hike means I want to switch.

However, I only have a TV cable in my apartment, not phone line. Sky have said they can't connect me and that Virgin is the only option. Googling other options it's confusing as to what the options are besides Virgin - has anyone else had a similar problem in apartment buildings and found a solution?

tap your eircode into switcher.ie and you’ll be shown the providers you have available to you.

Just threaten to cancel as its too expensive and thinking of moving to another provider with a better 12 month rate at 30 a month. They should cheapen it for ya.

If there is no fiber run into the building then Virgin is your only option.

I tried that but it's not specific to an eircode it's just an area as it says Sky is available which isn't true for my specific building:(

4g or 5g router and a SIM card for mobile broadband might be an option?

I was in similar situation and got this and I find it very good

I have 5G broadband from Three, 30 euros a month. Can't fault it. High download speeds, I game online. No issues so far.

Would recommend.
