There could be an extra present underneath your tree this month if you are
planning to sign up a new broadband package. Several major ISP providers are
offering some exclusive incentives as the year comes to a close. Stephanie
Rogers from
comparison site
Broadband Genie gives us some tips.
Especially for games enthusiasts, AOL are offering customers signing up to
their Broadband Wireless Plus package a new Sony Playstation 3. However, in
order to take advantage of the deal customers must sign up to the Wireless Plus
package for 24 months.
The ÂŁ19.99 monthly broadband package offers an up to 8Mb connection, a wireless
router, AOL Pay as You Go Plan and a 40GB download allowance. For those not in
an area that AOL has unbundled there is a ÂŁ10 monthly addition fee.
It’s important to remember though, that customers are only entitled to keep the
PS3 provided the 24-month contract is maintained.
PlusNet broadband is also targeting the gaming market with its Broadband Your
Way Pro package, specifically optimised for online gaming. The 8 Mb download
service, which priorities all gaming and VoIP traffic (including Ventrilo and
TeamSpeak) is offering up a free PS3, Xbox 360 or PC game and wireless router
for all sign-ups before 1st February 2008.
If the idea of enhancing your home connectivity sounds like an attractive
prospect then you may be interested in the BT Total Broadband package. With
speeds of up to 8Mb download, the package comes bundled with a Wireless BT Home
Hub and BT Vision digital TV recorder.
"If you are thinking of signing up a new broadband package
before Christmas it’s worth doing some research to find out if there
are any bundled extras that might suit you. If you were already
thinking of treating yourselves or your children to a new Sony
Playstation 3, for example, AOL’s broadband Wireless Plus package
could be the answer."
"However, Broadband Genie stress that signing up to a package on the
basis of a Christmas deal shouldn’t happen without some background
research: “A new Sony Playstation 3 maybe the answer to all your
problems this Christmas,” added Stephanie Rogers, “but before you
sign up you be absolutely certain that you will be able to afford
the subscription costs for 24 months to avoid any nasty surprises
months down the line." |
