Switching to eir is quick and easy. All you need to do is choose which plan and fill in a few details, including your address, bank details and UAN.
When switching provider it’s unlikely that your phone service will be affected, but a loss of broadband service can sometimes occur temporarily during the switching process.
Contact your current provider to ensure you’re free to switch before you go ahead, and give them the required notice so that you’re not charged after you’ve switched.
You’ll be able to arrange a cut-off date with them for service and then you can confirm an installation date with eir so you experience as little downtime as possible.
Once the switch happens, make sure you cancel any Direct Debits with your existing provider.
