Pity they can't get their shit together and actually connect some customers.
 
Around a year ago we decided to go with Smart for our telephone calls.

Disaster.

Repeated incorrect billing,
a refusal to refund,
a promise to refund which never materialised,
hopeless, useless, robotic, lying customer support
eventually paid them off
automated demand letters signed with a facsimile signature kept coming etc etc

We went back to Eircom in the end.

We're still getting the same thing with Eircom. 6of one, half a dozen o the other.

If yiz are having unending problems with telcos, tell the company in question that you would like to make a formal complaint, literally, say those words over the phone, and they'll have 10 days to come back with a response. If then you're still not satisified, get onto Comreg (1890 22 9668) tell 'em you've made a formal complaint with no joy. They then can dispute it directly with whichever company in question with yet another 10 days for the company to come back with a response.

We got upgraded last march automatically from 750k to 2mb with no extra charge, forever. Things are a bit better here in the uk tho..
 
It sounds nice but I can guarantee it will cause huge network delays and continual problems after the 6mb period has ended. It really is just a company trial dressed up as a nice christmas present.
