Looking to beat the broadband price increases in 2023? With price hikes from major broadband suppliers like BT, Plusnet, EE, TalkTalk, Shell, Vodafone, Three, O2 and Sky, it can be challenging to find the best deal. This guide provides information on mid-contract/annual price rises for broadband, phone line rental, call packages and TV, while offering three potential ways to beat the price hikes.
If you are out of contract with your broadband, you can shop around for a better deal by using a broadband comparison tool. If your broadband contract does not mention a price rise, you can exit the contract and switch to a new provider. If your contract specifies a price rise, but the details were not clear when you signed up, you are entitled to complain to your supplier and to Ofcom.
Here are three ways you can beat the broadband price increases.
- Firstly, switch broadband provider by using a comparison tool and selecting the deal that best suits your needs.
- Secondly, haggle with your existing provider for a better deal, but be prepared to stand firm and negotiate hard.
- Lastly, consider downgrading your existing package by removing unused services or paying for specific TV channels as you go.
