Consumers 'missing out' on broadband deals

Tuesday, 01 March 2011 04:11

A number of British broadband customers are missing out on making significant savings by failing to bundle up their broadband connection with digital TV or home phone services.

This is according to the results of a new survey from Broadbandchoices.co.uk, which revealed more than a quarter - 28 per cent - of respondents could be achieving significant savings.

Of those who do not get all their service supplied by one provider, 40 per cent said it was because they did not think it would provide better value for money.

Michael Phillips, product director at Broadbandchoices.co.uk, suggested the cost of living is rising so British consumers need to review their spending to minimise the financial blow.

He added it is therefore "surprising that such a high proportion of British broadband customers do not realise that bundles offer excellent value for money".

Mr Philips suggested the bundles market is fiercely competitive and stated consumers may be surprised what they can get if they just call up and ask for it.
