British consumers are being urged to compare their current broadband deal and to switch to a cheaper supplier wherever possible.<\/p>\n
The advice comes from a popular broadband website whose recent survey found that only 10% of broadband customers switched to a better deal in 2008 – with many of the remaining 90% thinking they currently had a good deal.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, Brits could be paying up to 40% more than they have to for their current broadband package as the cost of broadband in general has reduced by 37 percent from February 2008 to February 2009.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson for the website warned Brits against hanging on to a legacy tariff. They said, \u201cBroadband is in danger of becoming the forgotten bill. By switching, or asking for a better deal, customers can get a newer, cheaper and faster service.\u201d
\nIt seems madness that in such bleak economic times, many Brits aren\u2019t choosing to lower their broadband bills. Many consumers are happy paying more for their broadband rather than facing the prospect and perceived hassles of changing broadband provider.<\/p>\n
Surely it’s time for consumers to think again though, as switching broadband providers<\/a> can be straight forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" British consumers are being urged to compare their current broadband deal and to switch to a cheaper supplier wherever possible.
