Our best home broadband packages


*O2 sim: Each year your O2 mobile Airtime Plan will be increased by the Retail Price Index (RPI) rate of inflation announced in February plus 3.9%. If RPI is negative, we’ll only apply the 3.9%. You’ll see this increase on your April 2022 O2 bill onwards. Since this increase is provided for within your agreement, you will not be able to leave without paying an early termination fee as a result. See O2 Prices.

What to consider when picking a broadband deal?

Finding the best broadband deal for you takes some time and research. We’ve made it easier for you and outlined some factors to take into consideration:

  • Price: Think about whether your ideal broadband deal fits within your budget and brings you the best value based on your internet needs. We do have a set-up fee of £35, but look out for our £0 set-up cost offers, which we have from time-to-time.

  • Internet speeds: Casual browsing and smaller households will generally need less internet speed. Larger households and more heavy internet users will need an internet deal with more speed. See our broadband speed options below.

  • Usage: If you’re a large household and frequently download music and films, you may need more data, than other households. The good news is that all our broadband deals come with unlimited downloads.

  • Broadband packages: It’s most likely that if you’re purchasing broadband you’ll also be interested in landline, TV and SIMs. It’s worth looking at our broadband, tv and phone deals as they bring the most value.

  • Location: Depending on where you are in the UK, will determine which broadband packages and speeds are available in your area. Use our handy broadband postcode checker to see what deals you can get.
