Should I bundle my broadband?
Bundling your services can save you up to 36% on your broadband bills - just be sure you're using the services you pay for
Should I bundle my services?
Bundling your services can help you save even more on your broadband bills.
If you watch TV or enjoy streaming, bundling could save you money
Broadband and TV packages are cost-effective if you already pay for TV services like Netflix, Sky Sports, or other Sky channels.
One bill could save you money, and Ofcom estimates that bundling services is up to 34% cheaper than buying them individually from separate providers.
If you want a landline or a SIM card, broadband and phone packages are good value
Beyond landlines, broadband providers are starting to bundle SIM cards with a broadband connection. If you're currently on a SIM-only contract and it's up for renewal soon, look into combining your phone and broadband - it could work out a lot cheaper.
If you want to bundle everything, 'Triple Play' can simplify your bills
Bundling your broadband, phone, and TV packages will typically cost less than buying them all from separate providers - just be sure you're using what you're paying for.
If you just need a broadband connection, don't pay for more than you need
Many providers offer just the broadband connection, so if you don't need TV channels, a landline, or any other services, then opting for a 'broadband only' connection could save you up to 15% on your broadband bills.
If fixed broadband access is an issue, try mobile broadband
Mobile broadband has come a long way, with providers like Three offering 4G & 5G home broadband connections at speeds of up to 150Mbps.

How to compare and switch broadband
There are three simple steps to compare broadband deals and switch providers
-
Check you're out of contract
Ensure you're no longer within the minimum terms of the contract length with your current broadband provider. You can find out by looking at your original contract, confirmation email, or by contacting their customer service.
-
Enter your postcode and choose a personalised bundle
We algorithmically sort broadband packages based on your location, the speed you'd get, and how much it costs.
-
Complete your switch
Your new provider should contact your current provider and arrange the switch for you. And you'll receive letters and emails updating you on this.
How to get a better broadband deal
Whether you're looking for cheap and cheerful or high-spec full fibre broadband, everyone's needs are different. Finding the best deal for you starts with understanding how you plan to use it or if bundling your services lower your monthly bill.
-
Are you still within your contract?
If you're still in your minimum term, you'd be subject to an early repayment charge if you ended your contract early.
If you're out of contract or approaching the end, you can switch without penality.
-
Can you get a better deal for the same price?
A tariff may offer everything you're looking for, but does it come to the right monthly price and offer good value for money? Shop around to find the right tariff at the best possible price.
-
Can you get any bundles, freebies, or cashback?
Many providers offer tempting incentives, such as cashback or gift cards to new customers. These may help bring down the cost of an expensive broadband deal, although you should also consider whether these gifts are as important as factors such as speed and cost.

Broadband explained
What's the cheapest broadband deal I can get in Leicester?
The best way of finding the cheapest deal is by submitting your postcode so we can show you deals available at your property.
Just drop in your postcode and then order your results by 'Average Monthly Cost' - this will ensure any freebies or promotional intro periods don't make a deal look cheaper than it actually is.
Can I get 5G broadband in Leicester?
As Leicester has great 5G coverage, you have the option of getting 5G home broadband from a top mobile network like EE, O2, Vodafone and Three.
The strength of your 5G home broadband signal can be different to your signal when using mobile data, though - plus, other factors like your proximity to a 5G mast and how many people are using it in your area can affect its strength. So, it's best to check with different mobile networks to see whether they offer good indoor 5G coverage at your address.
