Am considering moving to Eir for Siro. Am I mad or have they sorted themselves out?

I briefly considered Eir when NBI became available to me but I decided against it because of past experience with their awful customer service. That said, I know people who are happy with Eir so maybe they have improved.

Have eir for 4 years, no complaints whatsoever and are very keenly priced

Your price will still increase during a 24 month contract with Eir because of those CPI+whatever percent increases they're almost all doing now. I've stuck with Digiweb specifically because they don't do this.

'm with Pure Siro using the FRitzbox 7530 on Pure, have had no problems, but no deal to renew, so time to shop around.

Digiweb are €40/month for 1GB with FRitzbox +€30 'activation' fee - Digiweb reliable?

Vodafone are €35/month (6months@30, 6months@40), but have Gigabox junk hardware - can you still use Fritzbox with them by changing login and settings? Cheapest currently.

In technical terms Eir is superior, they provide proper dual stack, unlike almost anyone else. Also there is no PPPoE encapsulation, so the latency is lower and the speeds are marginally higher.

Their support is abysmal (always been) though, but currently I'm in my second year of Eir's FTTH and had no single reason to contact their support.

Never had a problem with them

I do have an idea. They were adamant that I've subscribed for two years contract while I literally had call recording in which their representative explicitly said it's one year. Took me a month and a letter from my solicitor to sort things out.

At my new address I subscribed to them again because I need working dual stack.
