- Broadband providers in your area In certain areas, fibre & superfast broadband providers may not be operating. If the broadband you want is not available, consider other smaller providers who specialise in rural broadband.
- Broadband bundles Do you make calls on your house phone and love watching TV? If so, going for a provider that offers TV and broadband or home phone and broadband packages could save you money.
- Contract Length Most broadband providers have contracts between 12 and 18 months, with a 14-day cooling-off period, during which you can cancel free of charge. If you need a shorter contract, some providers do offer a 30-day plan.
