Tesco Broadband is offering potential customers the chance to sign up for £2 a month, if they’re quick, which the company boasts is “cheaper than a box of eggs”.
Not quite. Customers who sign up will also have to pay Tesco line rental at £14.90 a month for 12 months, putting the bill up to £16.90 per month for a yearly contract. A rolling 30 day contract is also available, but this will cost £40 to set up. For the 12 month contract, there will be early termination charges per month remaining. The deal is pretty good but certainly costs more than a dozen eggs, even if you are buying them from Waitrose or M&S.
As with many unlimited deals, Tesco is able to impose a fair use limit on broadband usage.
The supermarket offshoot boasts that the contract saves compared to BT, TalkTalk and PlusNet equivalents.
Evening and weekend calls are Included in the deal.
When asked about the purposes of this promotion, a Tesco spokesperson said “Tesco always looks at where it can help families by cutting the costs of its services”.
The offer is valid until the end of June.
