BROADBAND AND TV - GUIDE INDEX

Broadband and TV guides

Broadband is the bill people most often overpay on, usually because a contract rolled over quietly and nobody checked. These guides cover choosing a speed that matches how you actually use the internet, what affects the speed you really get, how to leave a contract without exit fees, and how to negotiate a better price when your deal ends.

On the TV side there are guides to Sky packages, Freeview, streaming, and the perennial question of whether you need a TV licence at all. If you are setting up at a new address, our broadband setup page walks through the order, and you can compare current broadband deals before you commit.

For the official position on mid-contract price rises, complaints and switching rules, see Ofcom. For licence rules and exemptions, check TV Licensing directly rather than relying on hearsay.
