Something Funny with Digiwebs Latest ‘Offer’
Posted by Ronan | Filed under broadband, concern, ireland
When the tags ‘Great News’ and ‘Christmas has come early’ are used in an email from your broadband provider you think… well this must be some fantastic news, something to get excited about !
If you are with Digiweb and using the Metro service you’d be wrong. Here is the advert
The package I was on was 35 yoyos a month for 6Mb, 30gig cap (which is reasonably priced - except for the cap, which sucks). So the advertisement leads me to believe I’m being upgraded to 8Mb (but with the 30gig cap).. yahoo! BUT WAIT! I read the small print - I have to pay an extra 5 euros for this.
If I continue paying the same price, 35 euros, my equivalent package is DOWNGRADED to 5Mb with a 20gig cap. - so how is my current Metro Broadband “got faster”?
Digiweb, you’ve been great - I’ve even blogged how great you were in the past - but this is pushing me to change as soon as I can.
I am not alone on this either.

quick review of the past couple of weeks..
Posted by Ronan | Filed under borat, concern, lab, parachute
We went to see Borat - absolutely brilliant, you must go see it! Switched to beta blogger, not sure about it yet, did funny things on this post.
Have loads of work to review, don’t ask!!
Shelly and I did a parachute jump from 10000 feet. free falling is a WTF kind of experience! if you get a chance you should do it.. the hardest bit is getting your foot out the door!
The lab is completely cleaned up, the patch box can close again for the first time in years!! We had to do this as it was getting out of control.
The build up for the ’fun run’ has started again, Better start running 5 mile again in preperation for Dec 8th.
Signed up for the concern fast appeal on Nov 30. If you want to donate please drop me a line!
