If you are in Tralee and weighing up whether to leave Sky or Virgin Media, the sensible move is to test the thing before paying for it. The Tralee trial runs 24 hours, needs no card, and works on the telly you already have. That is long enough to check Kerry in the championship, Kerry FC in the League of Ireland First Division, plus every Premier League and Champions League night.
Local viewing guide
Tralee is in Kerry, which means football, and Kerry football sets a standard the rest of the country measures itself against. Austin Stack Park hosts games in the town, while the county's biggest days are down the road at Fitzgerald Stadium in Killarney. Kerry FC give the county a League of Ireland side at the Mounthawk Park end of things. The other factor here is distance: Kerry is a long way from anywhere, and a satellite engineer visit is not the casual arrangement it is in Dublin. That is a real part of why streaming appeals in this county. It needs no dish, no installation window and no engineer, which for a lot of households in west Kerry is the deciding argument rather than the price.
Tralee has Eir fibre through the town with SIRO in parts, and coverage is workable across the built-up area. The county is another matter. Out towards Dingle, Castleisland and the peninsulas, distance and terrain both work against you, and Kerry is genuinely a long way from anywhere in infrastructure terms. That distance is also why the no-engineer aspect carries real weight here. Arranging an installation visit in west Kerry is not the routine matter it is in Dublin, and for a lot of households that alone decides the question. The test worth running is a Kerry championship game at your own address at the real throw-in time, because that is both the fixture that matters and the moment the line is under most local load.
The honest test in Tralee is not whether the menus look tidy. It is whether Kerry in the All-Ireland championship and Kerry FC in the League of Ireland First Division come through cleanly at throw-in. Find those channels on your first evening and give them a proper look. It will never be Austin Stack Park on a championship day, though on a good line it comes closer than you would think.
Connection check
Your line matters more than the app does. Kerry football is the fixture that matters, and the county is a long way from a Sky dish engineer. HD needs roughly 10 Mbps and 4K roughly 25 Mbps. Eir fibre with SIRO in parts. Check it during the evening peak in Tralee so you see the real number rather than the best-case one.
Setup
Most people who message us from Tralee are not chasing anything exotic. They want Kerry FC, the big European nights and a film for the kids without a two-year contract behind it. The trial exists so you can confirm that on your own telly before cancelling anything you already pay for.
Send a WhatsApp with your name and number. No card details are asked for.
We reply with your login, usually inside a few minutes.
Someone talks you through the setup on whatever device is already in the room.
You get 24 hours to judge it. Nothing auto-renews, because we hold no card.
No. The 24-hour trial never asks for card details. You send your name and WhatsApp number, we send a login back, and you watch. Decide against it and nothing happens, because there is nothing on file to charge.
No. It runs over your existing broadband, so there is no dish, no aerial and nobody calling to the house in Tralee. If you have a smart telly, a Firestick or an Android box, you already have everything you need.
The library includes GAA championship coverage and the League of Ireland First Division, so if a Kerry or Kerry FC game falls inside your 24 hours you can check it properly. Fixtures and rights move around, which is exactly why we would rather you test it on a real match night than take our word for it.
About 10 Mbps for HD and 25 Mbps for 4K. Kerry football is the fixture that matters, and the county is a long way from a Sky dish engineer. Test during the evening peak rather than the middle of the day, because that is when the line is under load.
