Our review of NOW Broadband
NOW TV is a household name, but the brand has now established itself as a major player in the UK broadband market. With speeds to rival the likes of BT, Sky, TalkTalk and EE at more affordable prices, this no-frills brand is a rising star.
Here’s everything you need to know about the provider – what’s on offer, whether it’s right for you, and what to expect in terms of equipment, installation, customer service and more.
Reasons to buy
NOW Broadband is a sensible choice for a good-value broadband deal on a 12-month contract.
You can also bundle your broadband with the TV memberships that the provider is famous for, and the fact that the brand doesn’t do credit checks on new customers makes it the number one choice for those with a less-than-perfect credit rating.
All the packages come with unlimited usage, and there are also flexible no-contract deals on offer that will suit some customers better.
All in all, NOW Broadband is a real contender for a solid broadband package, with deals that challenge big players like Sky and BT.
As with all broadband providers, there are some downsides to signing up. The service is considered to be no-frills, so don’t expect amazing incentives or free gifts. The TV service will also never match up to what’s on offer from the likes of Sky and BT, though it’s important to remember it’s much cheaper.
