How an Accounting Firm Saved €3,600 Annually by Switching to Fastcom Business SIM Only Plans

A well-established accounting practice in Ireland was using 20 business SIM-only plans to support staff communications. These were essential tools for their team, including partners, client-facing managers, field auditors, and payroll consultants, who relied on mobile connectivity to maintain client communication, access secure systems remotely, and ensure responsiveness across a busy workweek.

As flexible and hybrid working became more common, so too did the pressure to have reliable, cost-effective mobile plans that didn’t slow the team down.

The Challenges

Despite having mobile plans in place, the business faced a growing list of issues with their previous providers:

• Outsourced call centres that made it difficult to get answers

• Ongoing billing issues that took weeks or months to resolve

• No single point of contact for business support

• Time-lost chasing account queries instead of focusing on client work

The finance team became frustrated with the lack of transparency, rising costs, and the sense that they were being treated like a residential customer, not a professional business account.

The Fastcom Freedom Solution

Fastcom stepped in with a business mobile plan tailored to their needs - simple, scalable, and built for Irish businesses.

• All 20 staff transitioned to Fastcom Freedom SIM-only plans

• Existing mobile numbers were retained — no disruption to workflow

• Staff now enjoy unlimited calls, texts, and data on reliable 4G/5G coverage

• A dedicated business support team is always on hand

• Simple, clear billing — one consolidated monthly invoice

Fastcom handled the transition seamlessly, coordinating with the client's office manager and ensuring minimal disruption throughout the porting process.
