So thought I’d throw this up, in a similar style to the electricity and gas switching deals available
one big switch have a deal for eir Broadband €35 a month and €100 credit added to your account for new residential account holders, if you’ve had eir before use spouses name which I’ve done in the past
I don't think sky allow that. You can do it with VM, sky work on the address not the person.
Currently coming up to contract end with pure broadband(€35 pm) - can't fault them either. Tempted by Eir €100 offer,also looking at 3 (who I'm with for phone) half price offer. Any advice?
sky is €30 per month for 1gb for new customers. If you can hotspot for a week or so then you can get it. Otherwise yes you’re out of luck
True, but as I just need broadband now then that would involve a downtime in service unless somehow we could end a contract and start a contract on the same day with Sky. Working from home puts a stop to that. Also seeing as the Sky current offer for broadband is €40 PCM and Eir is €34.99 PCM but also €100 joining bonus then Sky even for that much trouble isn't worth it.
Cancel and sign up in other half's name if you have one. Then you will get new customer offer.
I've just started to move from Sky. Cancelled TV and they won't help with Broabdband deals unless I keep the TV, it will become €70 per month just for broadband. Eir are €34.99 with a €100 joining credit so Net to €26.65(CPI Price increase in April of course). Silly for Sky, I would have stayed with them(BB only) even if it was €45 but they said €70 and I'm not in contract for either service so gave them notice of 31 days for TV and I don't even need to speak to them to port my Broadband.
I find Sky grand. Had 500mb fibre for the past 12 months with 99% no issues. On 1gb now and still going strong.
did you get any feedback on sky broadband? i am interested too.
considering fibre optic to the house is common, sky or eir or vodafone or pure - does not matter i guess (if things are working fine)
they seem to have removed the capped speeds. Not a bad deal then but I’ve found Vodafone network is gone to the dogs the past few years
That's what an post say on their physical leaflets.
No mention of any speed restrictions on the An Post website that I can see anyway. I could be wrong though.
Only mention of limits is 50GB 4G+500Mins on the €12.99 plan
5mb limit afaik.
I thought an post were speed limited too.
Thanks
Gomo (eir): €12.99/€14.99.
48 (Three): €12.99.
An Post Mobile (Vodafone): €12.99
ClearMobile* (Vodafone):€12.99/€14.99.
*speeds limited to 10Mb
48.ie is 12 or 12.99 i think still.
They're on the 3 network.
I think Gomo are still €12 if you don't take the 5G option, if not they're €15.
Slight diversion on the thread but I'm with eir and have the reduced mobile charge of 12e per month. Who is comparable as I'd loose the lower rate if I moved to sky for broadband and TV.
Wonder would it work now since Sky are the cheapest. Virgin are €45 for 1Gb
What's the sky service like. I've not been with them since they introduced broadband many moons ago on the trial and it was crap.
I was on 35 a month for 500mb. Said I was switching to Virgin and they switched me to 1gb for 35 per month.
Sky are now offering 1Gb for €30 a month for 12months.
Anyone been able to sign up as an existing Sky customer?
I'm the same the best they could offer me was €86.
bye bye sky
Adding to this - Landline went live this morning, so just 24hrs after Broadband activation
Its bonkers.ie. However I mentioned this to virgin rep and after bit of negotiation he said if I signed up today he would give me one for all voucher.
Ive got a complicated contract with Eir looking for advice please. I have EIR BB, TV and 4 family members mobiles with Eir. When I checked the conact the BB, TV and 2 phones 12 months contract expires in early August. The other two phones contracts are staggered and end in the Autumn. How do I negotiate my stuff that is out of contract in August I don't want to get robbed with a high bill?
Thats very good. I got the email but it only offered me €60 pm but I am fttc or whatever the crappy 60mbps one is called! The fancy one still isn't available in my area for some reason. Received the eir modem in the post today and due to go active in 2 days so sky have said they'll refund whatever I'm owed for this month. Not sure how true that is!
Surprising, my €30/m Sky broadband (1st year I had FTTH) expired earlier this year but they sent me an email a month prior saying they'd roll the contract to €35/m (no fixed one year contract) so was happy enough at that to avoid the hassle of changing. Been paying €35/m since and no notifications of any increase.
All went live with EIR this morning. Vodafone went off 9am, EIR was up and connected by 9.10am.
Only issue I have, in this modern age, is that it is going to take 3-10 days to port the landline phone number. Old tech was the issue their end they say. Hard to believe.
Where do you get the €100 one for all voucher offer? I don't see it on Virgin's website.
