How To Use Our Site

IMPORTANT
The important element within our comparison tables is the “Realistic Monthly Cost” as this is a true indication to the cost of each package.

Explain Broadband Costs

EVERYTHING INCLUDED.
Within the “Realistic Monthly Cost” we have included all you need to get online. This includes the Broadband, Line Rental and Modem or Router if not included free with the package. You may already be paying line rental to BT or another company for your phone line.

Compare Broadband Only Accounts

Our comparison tables allow you to compare broadband only accounts from UK broadband suppliers. The tables on this page list “Only Broadband” accounts where there are no specific conditions to sign up like broadband with mobile phones or broadband with TV.

Broadband only accounts are becoming less and less common as providers become less niche and more broad while creating their product portfolio. This shift by internet broadband suppliers may be down to communications and devices merging. Whereas before you had a mobile for calls, a computer for internet and a TV for Television, the lines are blurring and this is reflected in broadband packages available to the consumer.

While it is fair to say that discounts can be achieved when going for a broadband package deal with mobile, telephone calls or TV, it is not always what people want. Keeping things separate can sometimes be an advantage especially when problems are encountered. For example, if your phone and broadband are with the same company, if one goes down, they both go down.

We have summarised the broadband packages within our tables but visitors should be aware of the following:

Speed
The indicated speed is “Upto” only and depends on many different factors. The numbers we have provided are the advertised maximum speed from that supplier.

Free Calls
The types of calls included within the Free Calls element of a package vary between suppliers. Generally they only include UK landline calls and have an individual call time limit. Visitors should check on the suppliers web site to see which calls are included within the call packages.

Line Rental
When line rental is not provided by the supplier themselves we have included the cost of line rental to BT for a basic Option1 package. This would need to be taken out with BT separately to the broadband supplier.

Availability
All packages are subject to availability and this can vary based on factors like address, local delivery and distance from an exchange. Most suppliers will allow you to check the availability to your home on their websites before you sign up to a contract.

Prices
The prices shown are the prices we found published on the suppliers website when we last updated our tables. There may be times when prices or contract details have changed before we have updated our records, and visitors should bear this in mind and double check the deal before signing up.

What we provide
We do not provide broadband access ourselves; we simply provide comparison tables allowing visitors to make a more informed decision on their choice of broadband. Links take a visitor to the website where that particular package can be purchased.
