Plusnet

Introduction to Plusnet

If you are looking for a product which isn't only cheap but is also good quality, Plusnet is probably your best bet. The provider is no stranger to winning award after award (even from the Internet Service Providers' Association) for providing a budget-friendly broadband and calls packages.

This means that cash-strapped customers are definitely going to find a deal that will not only suit their browsing and calling habits, but also help to keep putting pennies in the piggybank.

Plusnet History

Those who have been browsing the web ever since 1997 may recall a provider named Force9 Internet which provided a dial-up internet connection. As technology advanced the firm started to sell broadband in 2000. Seven years later, BT was very much interested in the provider and decided to buy it.

To this day, BT is the parent company of Plusnet but the firm still functions under its own brand name.

Services

At the moment, Plusnet keeps its prices brutally competitive and often runs promotions such as free broadband services when bundling products.

Industry experts advise consumers to bundle their services from a single provider (for example taking broadband and calls from one company) as it can save hundreds in the long run.

Customers who are interested in superfast speeds can opt for Plusnet's fibre broadband packages.

Why it may not be right for you

While Plusnet is a great budget broadband provider, customers who are interested in digital TV services may want to look at ISPs who supply all three services such as Sky or Virgin Media.

Also, it might be worth adding that if you are looking for unlimited downloads, you should probably look elsewhere, seen as the provider's services come with monthly usage allowances which are generous for some but might not be enough for heavy downloaders or gamers.

Those who demand a lot from their broadband connections (unlimited usage, high speed) should sign up to a higher-end package to escape over-use penalties.
