    Eircom should take note of this article on the B.B.C. news site .

    The number of UK users subscribing to broadband has doubled since BT introduced its cheaper, self-install service.

    Interest in the high-speed internet service has shot up since its Plug & Go service was launched last month, says BTopenworld's chief executive, Alison Ritchie.

    Between 8,000 and 10,000 customers a week are now subscribing to BTopenworld's new product.

    Other ISPs have also seen an increase in demand in recent weeks following BT's decision to cut the cost of wholesale ADSL.

    "BT made a fantastic move with their price cuts and we wholeheartedly commend them on this bold step," said Zen's marketing manager Ian Buckley.

    "This new pricing will enable us to roll out ADSL to the mass market and should really push the UK up in the broadband league tables," he said.
