Eircom has been around the longest, and they are the owners of the lines. BT has a nice backing, probably due to their attractively priced packages.
Here's a possible solution. Before I migrated to BT, I was with UTV. My only reason for changing was to avail of the top package for less money. UTV were grand (as good as you're gonna get), and I'd recommend their services to anyone; for the lack of anything better. Also note that they're more expensive than BT, but still cheaper than Eircom. If you're going to change ISP's, then I'd advise you give them a go. I doubt they'd be over-subscribed down in Cork. They're one of the bigger, but lesser known companies. That's my logic for thinking they may be better for you than Eircom and BT. UTV Clicksilver Broadband – High Speed Internet Connect

Hi seifer
Thanks for the input but unfortunately UTV don't appear to be available in my local exchange [theyr'e not listed in either
Broadband.gov.ie - Broadband Home or
Broadband - Irish Broadband - getbroadband.ie - best broadband deals].
I tried to find out from their website but the line checker requires you to input your universal account number
and I don't want to take the chance they'll move me until I'm sure I want to move.
