    I have the 12meg package (89.99 p/m) in an area where nobody else (Eircom, 3, WiMax, DigiWeb, nobody) could provide anything other than bare-bones 1meg or even less. Seriously.

    Got the Wicklow Broadband in about 4/5 months ago. It's a revelation. Unbelievable. Speed totally consistent. Once or twice, at like 3am, it's gone down completely due to them performing maintenance, but in fairness, I should be in bed at 3am.

    The installation took less than an hour and it is reliable and quick. I couldn't recommend Wicklow Broadband enough. Might be a bit more expensive (especially for the package I have) but they have cheaper packages and their service is impeccable.

    I must agree, there was maintainance work this weekend and I noticed a drop off in speed, I fired off an email to their support and guess what?!? 30 minuites later a response! "We will be back up to speed in two hours"

    €39:99 for unlimited broadband at 7mb+, I can't argue with that tbh.

    That's good news. I think I've got three months contract left myself. If fibre is available I'll be all over it.
