Cashback deals
I’d always recommend looking for extra savings via cashback sites when signing up to a new broadband provider. The best ones are Quidco and TopCashback, and there are welcome offers worth up to £17 you can get if you’ve not used them before.
Social broadband tariffs: From £12 a month
If you’re on certain benefits you might be eligible for a discounted broadband service from many of the leading providers.
Universal Credit will work for all the tariffs, and most will also be available for those on Pension Credit, ESA, JSA, Income Support. Some will also allow things like PIP and Attendance Allowance. Click through to the providers to find out what the qualifying benefit criteria is.
Though these savings are good, it is worth checking if you can get a better deal going via a cashback site or haggling with your existing provider.
