Tesco Broadband "Unlimited" £2.50 + £13.75 Line Rental (Total: £16.25 - £35 Quidco = £13.33 per month)
Seems like Tesco dropped the price of their broadband, and thought people shopping around for a new provider might be interested.
£35 Quidco Cashback (97.1% tracked) also available, making the monthly line rental the equivalent of £13.33.
Alternatively, £35.35 cashback is available via TopCashBack.
Tesco Broadband with Inclusive Evening & Weekend calls:
* "Unlimited" downloads (100GB Fair Use - does not include normal use such as browsing, emailing, VoIP, or iPlayer)
* No set up fee on 12 month contract
* 30 day rolling contract available (£40 set up cost)

The 12-month deal is available until 31 May to members of the U.K. supermarket giant's loyalty scheme. To qualify for the offer, customers must also rent their landline from Tesco at a cost of £13.75 per month.
Although advertised as unlimited, the price plan is subject to a fair usage policy of 100 GB per month. Customers who exceed this limit for two consecutive months despite being warned over their heavy usage face having their service suspended or even terminated.
Still, at £16.25 per month in total, Tesco Broadband's new tariff is cheaper than comparable unlimited price plans from some of the U.K.'s other fixed broadband providers including TalkTalk, BT, Virgin Media and Sky.

Jump to unread Post a CommentTesco Broadband Products offer our customers the flexibility of unlimited downloads per month, however, in order to provide a fast and reliable service to all our customers, this feature is subject to our Fair Usage Policy.
We will only impose a limit on the use of Tesco Broadband to prevent unusual use and abuse. If a customer regularly downloads in excess of normal levels of consumer consumption, for example, 100GB per month, we may do one or both of the following:
(a) ask you to moderate your use;
(b) impose further charges in respect of your atypical or abusive use calculated per megabyte. You will be informed of these charges before they are incurred.
Where we suspect abuse or breach of this Fair Use Policy, we will try to contact you before taking action in accordance with this paragraph.
In the case of severe abuse, as reasonably determined by us, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your use of Tesco Broadband. We will again try to contact you before doing so.
In addition, we monitor the network to make sure that very heavy users do not impact the majority of our customers. Only a very small number of customers will be defined as “heavy users”, and this will not include normal use such as browsing, emailing, VoIP, or iPlayer. We may restrict their download speed to ensure that all of our customers receive a consistent and reliable connection.

Unlimited my @rse, I'm FUPed off with FUP's. The word Unlimited should be banned if its not Unlimited!
Reviews I read before joining warned of their **** poor router being the root of all the broadband issues and advised where possible it would be better to use your own. I got the info (login/password) I needed from Tesco to be able to use my own.
just another example of rip off Britain

depends on quality of the stream... I use just under 2gb for a footy game

Don't use this if you stream films or TV, use torrents or play online games on ANY console. I easily use over 120gb / month from doing a casual mixture of all these.

There should be little or no down time at all when you switch, if both ISP's do thier stuff properly you shouldn't even notice it's switched!

It's the bit about both ISP's doing their stuff properly that bothers me, Virgin Media messed up so badly when I moved house it was a nightmare, I guess I should have a little faith but being passed around Indian call centers with talktalk had me close to self harming!
Just switched to Plusnet for line rental and BB. £9.50/month line rental and BB £3.24/month for 1st 12 months and hopefully £50 cashback from TCB.So effectivly free BB for the year.Downside maybe BB download limited to 40Gb/month, but plenty for me and English call centre with free number for technical support if needed.
