    now to clarify .they where charging me for a second recorder box which i didnt have so minus a tenner the disney package changed in november so playhouse disney and one or two others are now on the max package so minus €16.00 per 2 months .but they are adamant that the €8.50 is charged for addional points to new and existing customers so check with them lads and they say the €5.00 is only for two months because i asked about their web site.
    Hey foalteam will you let me know how you get on with there broadband because mickha is right eircoms is rubbish there contention ratio is to high. so I might jump to there broadband

    So what's the story with people that are currently on the 20mb package? Seeing as they no longer appear to be advertising the 20mb and the 30mb is the same price, do the 20mb customers get upgraded to 30mb, or are they ripping them off?

    Have BB and Phone with UPC and TV with Sky, saw their new fibre package and rang them about it, same old story its only for new customers and not existing customer scum like myself!

    You'd think that they would be mad to get me over from sky, NOPE!
    got a very uninterested member of the 'sales team' who couldnt really have cared less what package i was on or who my tv was with.

    Stuck with my expensive package with sky (have to have the football!)
    Trying to drum up courage to tell'em where to go, uk package £48.50 (€53-54) with free BB and phone, my package WITHOUT bb and phone €87, wheres the justice???
