Now
NowTV have very competitive fibre optic broadband offers, with 12 month contracts as standard. This makes them a great alternative if Virgin isn’t available in your area. Their fastest ‘Super Fibre’ has an average speed of 63Mbps. They also have non-fibre offerings for those of you that need it.
Plusnet
Plusnet are another great alternative if Virgin aren’t available in your area. Their speeds and prices are very similar to Now, and they boast UK call centres if you have any issues!
BT
BT’s are the only major broadband provider to offer 9 month student contracts, ideal if you want to move out in May and not pay for the whole summer! This means, while their monthly price is generally a little more, you can save money on the whole bill. You can also get 12 month contracts if you need the extra time.
BT 9 Month Student Deals
BT’s 9 month student offers. Get speeds of up to 67Mbps on a student friendly contract length.
BT 12 Month Student Deals
Check out BT’s Student 12 month offers.
Three
Three offer 12 month contracts on their 4G & 5G home broadband. Just plug it in – no phoneline or engineer required. In our opinion, it’s probably not worth risking the 4G. The 5G, on the other hand, is a great option if Superfast 100Mbps+ fibre isn’t available in your city.
John Lewis
Your nan’s favourite department store also does broadband. They offer 12 month contracts and are pretty reasonably priced. We find there are better options out there… such as all the ones listed above. You can’t buy a pair of socks from Virgin though, can you? Checkmate.
All Broadband Providers below this line ONLY offer 18 or 24 month contracts.
Vodafone
Vodafone has widely available superfast fibre broadband, which is great! What’s not so great is that they only offer 24 month contracts. Boooo! On the plus side they do have some great mobile contracts. You can find their mobile offers on our main Vodafone page.
EE
EE only offer 24 month broadband contracts at the moment. They do also have 1 month rolling contracts on their mobile broadband. We’re not really counting this, as it costs £75 a month for 100mbps 5G broadband; with an up front fee of £275. If you hate money you can grab that offer below. That said, their mobile network is the fastest in the UK. Check out their mobile offers on our main EE page.
Sky
Sky, believe in better only 18 month contracts.
TalkTalk
TalkTalk only offer 18 month contracts. In terms of 18 month contracts they are generally priced pretty competitively, and often offer vouchers when you sign up.
