You can get decent deals via the cashback websites.

Seeing 50mb a second packages at about £25-30 a month there which is very decent and would be suitable for 99% of households.

See the Original post. I did haggle. They came down from £40 to £36 when a new customer gets the same deal for £28. Thats a 30% drop for being a new customer over a standard renewal contract.

If it had been a £1 or two out I would have held off and waited for their next in line to cancellations team to call but on this occasion they can poke their service up their smoker. I may even take the time to be really interested in a deal and waste some poor buggers time before declining their offer if they catch me when I'm doing nothing better.

Aha, only skim read/didn't take it in mate. Honestly, if I do similar again save yourself a load of typing as edited above

Paying £55 at the moment for BT 150mb. Can cut that in half and get double the speed with Virgin. So now begins the merry dance of negotiation between current provider and potential new provider. Broadband, phone contract and car insurance all up for renewal over the next 2 months. Alongside switching electric and gas suppliers. Like a 2nd job all this admin.

Just changed my package with BT after shopping around and quoting other deals i now have 300mb broadband, so double the speed, for £32.99 pm, so £22 pm cheaper, with no price increase this year, which on my current deal was going to be an extra £4 pm, all without the hassle of switching.
