BT

BT is one of the UK’s leading providers, offering a variety of broadband, TV and phone packages. Choose BT Infinity to connect to superfast fibre-optic speeds with a combination of bundles, including all-new mobile deals.

BT’s Home Hub technology is on its fifth generation and boasts one of the most reliable wireless signals ever while using half the amount of energy as a standard light bulb. The majority of BT deals include the hub for free, with only a small delivery charge applying.

BT’s Vision+ set-top TV box allows you to pause and rewind live TV as well as watch archives of over 300 hours of on-demand viewing.

BT’s broadband helpline is free from landlines and operates 24/7. You can also visit BT’s online support page to speak to a “virtual assistant” and have frequently asked questions about broadband, TV and phone services answered instantly. 

Under new rules, switching provider is simple.  All you need to do is check that you can get the service at your postcode, then place your order, and then BT should organise the switch for you.

All BT deals include a monthly line rental fee of £18.99 on top of the standard monthly fee. This includes packages that only take broadband. Fibre-optic customers may also have to pay a £30 activation fee, depending on their package.

Customers can choose from a number of extra features with their BT package. BT Broadband Extra and Infinity Extra both come with a free subscription to McAfee Net Protect Plus, which includes, anti-virus software and firewalls for ultimate online protection.

All broadband customers are also eligible to BT Sport channels for free, where you can watch live Premier League coverage through your TV or the BT Sport app.

Some broadband packages offer additional value with an included BT Mobile SIM, that runs as long as your subscription. You can take the SIM as part of your package or buy it separately at a discount if you’re an existing BT customer.

As BT is the biggest UK telecoms provider and as such offers the maximum amount of availability. Superfast fibre-optic connections will require installation but standard broadband packages can link to your existing phone line without any changes. Some remote locations will not support fibre-optic connections, but you can check this before you order.

How fast is BT?

BT broadband ranges from 17Mb to 76Mb, depending on what package you go for. 17Mb packages are ideal for personal or low internet use, with the larger 76Mb perfect for families going online at the same time.

What are the advantages of fibre?

Fibre-optic provides a much faster and more reliable service than standard cable broadband. Whilst more expensive and not available to everyone, fibre is the ultimate broadband experience for those looking for reliability. 

What does unlimited mean?

BT’s unlimited plans allow you to download however much you want at any time. Those with data caps will only let you download a certain amount per month before capping out or charging you further.

Is it easy to install?

Installing BT broadband is as simple as hooking up your Home Hub Router. Fibre services will need installing, but an engineer will be sent out to take care of it for you.
