I declined, as that would cost (42.5 x 6) 255 (85 x 6) 510 Total = €770 For me, that's too much, considering I paid approx. €480 for the max package last year. I asked what she could do for me if I dropped the TV portion. She tried to sell me the BB+Phone plan for €45 until I pointed out that it was €25 for 4 months on their website, before going up to €45. She came back with €35 for 6 months and €45 for the next 6 months. So I am paying the same as last year. My BB is technically 40mb more (240mb) and I now have free mobile calls. Realistically I use wifi, so BB is only 50mb. I am not happy, but willing to accept the deal. I could have pushed for a little more, but having been on the hunt for car insurance as well, I just took the offer. I think I lose the horizon box, which is a bit of a hassle. I will be able to stream TV. My TV is internet ready, so this might work. But I will more than likely get freesat and saorview box installed.

I rang a few weeks ago about adding mobile as I saw they were now offering a mobile calls package but the guy said they werent offering this to existing customers at the moment. Should I push for a better deal?

Cushie Butterfield wrote: » Anyone currently tied into a 12/18 month contract would normally be charged a cancellation fee if they cancelled their services during that period, even giving 30 days notice. The price increases give the opportunity to people currently tied in to a 12/18 month contract the right to give notice to cancel or make changes to their current products without penalty fees. This 'get-out of jail free card' is time limited: they have to act within 30 days of receiving notification from UPC of the price increase. The 20 days left remark was an approximate estimation. If you received your notification yesterday you'd have 29 days left to give notice of cancellation, or to change/upgrade/downgrade products without being subject to penalty or downgrade fees. After the 20 or 29 days or whatever anyone tied into a contract remains on the exact same contract (including expiry date). The only change would be an increase in their subscription as per their increase notification from UPC. If you've already satisfied the 12/18 months you'd have automatically have continued on a 30 day rolling contract (you'd then be 'out of contract') which can be cancelled at any time regardless of price increases. You're still subject to the price increases but can cancel at any time giving 30 days notice.

Ive Sky Sports on top of that which means monthly bill is currently €72. My 12 month contract is up at the end of March, if i continue on a rolling contract after this will the price remain the same or will i be reverted back to the full price of €75 plus Sky Sports. (€110) Thanks

The new package includes unlimited mobiles so I should save money there as my house has a really bad reception and I often call mobiles from the landline. She was only offering me ten euros off till I mentioned that eircom where offering me a better deal
