Choosing a broadband package in Sligo

The right type of broadband package will depend on your lifestyle and preferences.

For example, if you hardly ever watch TV, you won’t be bothered about paying for a digital TV package on top, and if you prefer to make calls on your mobile, you may not need a landline.

Here are the three main types of package to choose from:

1. Broadband-only - no phone line needed and no TV package included. Pick a plan that offers the broadband speed you need - or the best speed possible for your area at the lowest price.
2. Broadband & home phone - check what calls are included as standard, and what you’ll pay extra for, as well as ensuring the broadband ticks your boxes.
3. Broadband, phone & TV - a triple plan will save you the most money. Compare TV channels and call plans as well as broadband speeds and extras.
