Scoring a cheap broadband deal can often feel like a chore, but there's good news on the horizon. A lesser-known broadband provider might just have an offer that'll make you forget about Virgin Media, Sky and EE.
Gigaclear has unveiled a £17 per month broadband offer for certain parts of the UK eligible for its service. This is an absolutely cracking deal that could save you a tidy sum.
If Gigaclear doesn't ring any bells, it's because they specialise in rural broadband for homes that may not have access to the usual Openreach providers like BT. So, if you've been feeling left out in the cold when it comes to superfast speeds, Gigaclear could be your ticket to the fast lane.
The £17 per month deal works out at 56p a day over the course of an 18-month contract (which you'll need to sign up for). But you'll want to act swiftly as these deals are subject to customer limits and may not stick around for long.
Unfortunately, the offer won't be available to everyone - the key is to check your postcode here to see if you're eligible for the deal.
On a brighter note, Gigaclear boasts a 4.5 out of 5-star rating on Trustpilot from over 20,000 reviews, so you can rest easy about the reliability of the service. One glowing five-star review read: "Really impressed by how quickly and easily I could speak to someone when I needed help."
"It was 10x easier than whenever I've tried to call past providers like TalkTalk or Vodafone". Another chimed in with praise: "Brilliant service had no issues with connection the customer service is outstanding and very helpful not pushy at all."
Yet, not everyone's experience has been smooth sailing. A disgruntled user reported: "We had our Gigaclear 500mb services activated yesterday morning and all was fine. By about 2pm our connections dropped completely with a red flashing optical light on the wall unit. Completely unacceptable and there has been no urgency from staff to rectify this"
