BUT I have no interest in a phone and as neither Pure nor Eir seem to be interested in offering broadband only Digiweb work out cheapest for me. (although I am sure they both have a package somewhere that works out the same price as Digiweb) To be honest the price difference is minimal between all 3 so it comes down to customer service and if you want the extras such as mobile and \ or TV. I have experience of Eir's customer service. None with Digiweb or Pure but I have heard good things about digiweb.

Would you think it's likely this is the max the line will take or is this the expected speed for this package? Just be nice to know the option would be there to switch to the 300 package in the future.

Bored Accountant wrote: » I think the penatly amount was redacted on the published contract so no idea if is severe enough. There has been disuccsion here for past 6 months about eir making there targets with a lot of pesimisim about it. But in saying that, in past 2 months, the number of premises being passed has increased dramatically and appears to be at a level to meet the targets of 10,000 a month. How do you know if they have enough manpower or not? Everyone around here is reporting alot of boots on the ground working in their areas and working 7 day weeks to roll out the fibre.

I told them I was given misleading information in the VF shop about switching over the fibre when it was available in my area! He never mentioned Siro to me even after me explaining that eir would be installing FTTH in the area. I was cheeky and asked them to give me 1 more month on the 4G service. We're due to live on May 3rd as well. Currently sitting here waiting for eir service installer to arrive (supposedly in the morning)! Still waiting!!!! Not a good start.

chewed wrote: » Yeah, I ordered online for the 12 month 300mb package. I got a text message a few days later telling me my modem would be sent. That arrived on Monday and then I got another call on Wednesday to say engineer would be out today to install! So far so good, but still waiting for engineer. I've waiting over 10 years for this service, so I suppose I can hold out a few hours for the installation!
Peppa Cig wrote: » Great news. Did you select today as your preferred install date when placing order online? My earliest install date option online was 5th May. Have you done any prep to facilitate install or are you planning on letting engineer install best place. Let us know how it goes today.
