Default Internet Access in Connolly

Is it just me or does anybody else have huge difficulty accessing the internet in Connolly. I have a 3 mobile and it rarely works, the train wifi is slightly better until the train gets about half full when it stops. There is also an advertiser supported hotspot in the station run by somebody called MediaPort on which I have never made a successful connection. It currently presents itself as tesco.ie free WiFi.

Are any of the mobile operators reliable in Connolly? I appreciate that it is difficult to provide mobile internet access to large groups of people but surely it is possible to do this for the couple of thousand or so people that will be in Connolly at 6PM.

I tried ringing 3 customer support once but I had to stop talking to them before I lost the will to live.

3 has to be one of the least pleasant telecoms companies when things go wrong, in my opinion.

Amazing deal for Irish expats in the UK/Denmark/a few other places though.

i rang them on friday to pay my NBS bill. of course i dont know my account or mobile number, but i know my name and password. this is more then they knew and they eventually hung up on me.

later on, i got through again and after telling them that i wanted to pay me bill, and going through all the rigmarole, i was eventually told that there was an outstanding amount on my bill. yes, i said, i know, that is why i am ringing you in the accounts department.
