just looking for a bit of advice...moving to Dublin soon (choking back tears) and need to set up the usual phone, tv, internet connections.
any advice/experience of who puts the best offers and packages together, i've been ringing around but am none the wiser (although i'm leaning towards getting the lot from NTL...would this be a mistake?).......
Broadband or dialup?

depends on the price/package for broadband, but i'd only really need dial-up so it'll more than likely be the latter.
UTV do a very good deal on FRIACO. €24.50 a month for 180 hours online at any time, plus cheaper phone calls.
I heard Eircom are giving broadband out for free,they install it for free too,its costs 30 something euro a month but thats is the best you'll get.It cost me 400 euro and now its free:mad: :mad:
Get Sky, get Sky, GET SKY.
Even with a smaller package you'll get far more badger for your buck than you would with ntl (or Chorus or whoever).
Apparently NTL are quite good value on telephony and Internet, so if you're looking for an all-in-one bundle, they're probably the way you want to go. Personally I tend to avoid supporting Irish companies in these market spaces though, as they've been gouging us for years. Given a choice, I'd sign up for Sky for TV and UTV for telephony and Internet.
BohsLhad, I take your point but it's not "free" by any manner of means, in fact it's still the most expensive DSL package available. See here and here for just two discussions on the gougers.
