Buyers’ guide: TV and broadband packages
If you’re looking for the best value TV and broadband deals and offers, including an internet connection and either cable or satellite television, spending a little time looking at the Broadband Genie comparison tables can pay dividends when picking broadband and TV bundles.
There are a good spread of television and broadband internet deals available, with everything from cheap budget ADSL broadband packages through to top-end super-fast fibre-optic broadband offers.
This means prices vary a lot, so there should be something for everyone who is shopping for broadband and TV bundles. If you're looking to save by combining your bills into one service, then TV and broadband deals are often the best way forward.
What are broadband and TV bundles?
A broadband and TV bundle does what it says on the tin: your internet and television services are handled by one company on one convenient bill. You’ll find several of the leading home broadband internet service providers will give you the option of singing up for broadband and TV bundles, with Virgin Media, BT and Sky leading the way.
The great thing about a deal or offer like this is that you simply pay one monthly price for your broadband and TV package, so it streamlines the setup process and generally works out cheaper and easier in the long run.
While you compare the deals and offers that you see in our comparison tables, you may well see ISP’s saying some services are 'free' as they’re bundled with the other products in their range, but remember the price is invariably factored in to the package you’re thinking about signing up for.
Why broadband and TV packages?
The thinking behind the TV and cheap broadband packages is they provide us, the consumer, with much better value. By selling you several services together it reduces their costs, so the suppliers pass some of these savings onto us as a reward for the extra loyalty. Add simpler billing, plus one point of contact, and it's a no-brainer for both sides.
It’s very straightforward to spend a little bit of time doing a comparison of these TV and broadband packages, because all of the major providers are listed above. However, you’ll need to keep a few factors in mind when searching for your ideal broadband and TV packages.
Which TV and broadband bundles?
All the best current TV and broadband packages are listed in our comparison table above. Remember that you’ll be signing up for both TV and broadband, so it’s vital to pick through the details of any deal or offer to ensure there’s nothing in the small print that might affect your enjoyment of the package.
You’ll need to look at the factors such as the broadband speed you can hope for from the broadband package, as well as the monthly download limit and length of contract.
However, you’ll also want to spend time comparing what is included in the television side of the TV and broadband bundles. Will you get all the channels you want in the deal you're looking at, or will they cost extra? And then there is the inevitable telephone landline too - does the call package suit you?
High end TV and broadband packages
If you can afford to pay a little extra, and live in the right area, high-end broadband and TV packages can be a real pull. If you want to spend something around the £50 per month mark, you can enjoy fast broadband with unlimited downloads alongside more channels than you can shake a stick at.
And there are other benefits to these top notch TV and broadband packages. These can range from free internet security and unlimited calls to free premium channels, including Sky sports and movie channels. The sky (no pun intended) is the limit if you can afford to pay a premium.
But if you don't need these services, there are still great deals at half the price. You may not get the top end services on both the TV and broadband bundle, but if you don't need it why pay for it? If you reduce the level of service in one area, you'll likely save a good chunk of change.
Smaller broadband and TV packages
For the less heavyweight internet user, who only needs to dip into emails each day and also do a little bit of browsing on the web, then a smaller TV and broadband package will probably be more than adequate, and one of the lower download (or channel) limit services should still suit most peoples' needs.
In addition, remember the TV and broadband packages you'll find at Broadband Genie are changing all the time and there are often limited time deals that will really hit the mark. These special deals range from offering half-price monthly fees for a portion of your contract, or giving a free money-off voucher for a big high street name. If the exact deal for you isn't there now, check back next week and look out for the red text in the deal description for the current hotness!
However, even with special offers, you still need to be careful. If your newly chosen package reverts to a higher billing rate you can't afford, or has lots of features you rarely or never use, then it won’t really prove to be very good value. This is where the time you spend doing your initial comparison on the many and varied TV and broadband packages will mean that you’ll be able to hone down the main things that you need from a deal.
What will I pay for TV and broadband bundles?
You’ll find a wide variety of different pricing options when it comes to analysing the different TV and broadband bundles. How much you pay will revolve around the length of the contract you like the look of, any of the chosen TV options that are added to the bundle deal, along with the usual factors such as speed of the service and also those data limits.
Pricing structures obviously change all the time, however, which is why our comparison tables are amended constantly to ensure that you are always seeing the latest and best deals that are currently available. Offers come and go too, so while you might see one or two great TV and broadband packages this week they may well have changed by the following week.
You will find that there are deals that costs anywhere from between around £20 and £50 per month, but these are always open to change, thanks to a competitive marketplace that sees ISPs regularly introducing new offers and incentives to try and persuade you away from their rivals.
Other TV and broadband deals factors
Lookout though, for added areas of cost – so if a TV and broadband package comes with a phone line too, you may have an extra charge factored in for monthly telephone line rental. This is where the comparison tables and addition data found inside the Broadband Genie website can help you pick through the small print and flag up anything in the billing process that you might possibly overlook.
It’s always much easier to do your homework before signing on the dotted line for broadband and TV packages, as once you’re into a contract period it can often be very tricky to reverse that process and get out of it again You may well have to keep paying for everything until you reach the end of the contract term, so ensure that you have the funds to carry you across the length of a deal.
Nevertheless, there’s no doubt that choosing TV and broadband bundles, comparing the best ones to suit your needs, and then honing down your search can be one of the best ways to get more services for less cost. If you’re also adding the benefit of free phone calls to UK landlines or mobiles, which are found in some bundle deals, then these so-called “triple play” deals represent even better value for money.
Cable TV versus ADSL broadband bundles
As you’ll see from our comparison tables, many of the major internet service providers offer these TV and broadband bundles. However, when factoring in all of the considerations of your package – such as cost, speed, data limits and so on, it’s worth remembering that that if you want to switch a provider then you may end up with two services.
For example, if you wan to shift from BT, and you already have a landline with them, it may be better to cancel this if you’re going for a Virgin deal and then use the phone line option in their bundle deal. It generally is much cheaper to do this by adding more services, and certainly a lot more straightforward from a billing point of view.
Our comprehensive guides will get you through this process with ease, while the comparison table above will point you in the right direction of the best TV and broadband packages of the moment.
