Eircom’s TV vision to take on Sky and UPC

Competition among television service providers is set to intensify with the entry of Eircom into the lucrative market from today with a basic television package costing just €10 per month.

The company yesterday launched an eVision television service in a bid to capture a share of the market that is dominated by rivals Sky and UPC.

It also makes Eircom the first company in Ireland to offer “quad play” bundles featuring landline, broadband, mobile phone, and television services in one place.
