Yes it is too expensive and a poor service. If you feel so angry about it then join Ireland Offline they are trying to do something about it.

Too true! There still isn't a true FRIACO product but compromises.

Exactly! The rest of the civilised world already had broadband and here the only way was satellite (which I had 4 or 5 years ago)

In fairness it's much improved over the last few years due to availability and competition and I reckon Irelandoffline played a significant part in that. Just an example is that my provider (NTL) recently doubled my speed and at the same time took 10% off the bill
