Broadband ISP and energy provider Shell Energy will later this morning launch a new promo, which is to offer “free broadband” until January 2023 to both new and existing customers who take one of their Fast, Superfast Fibre, Superfast Fibre Plus, Ultrafast Fibre or Ultrafast Fibre Plus plans
The promotion, which is expected to be available to take until 30th October 2022, does however come with some caveats. For example, it will not be available to those on Shell Energy’s Full Fibre (FTTP) products and existing customers will only be able to benefit if they are currently in receipt of an End of Contract Notification (ECN) letter / email for their package.
In addition, the deal is only available to those taking out an 18-month contract term and the “free” aspect does not extend to other charges, such as for call plans and postage, which are still applicable and will be charged separately.
As usual, Shell’s broadband packages all come with unlimited usage, an included wireless router, free activation and copper line rental with standard call rates (only valid on FTTC and G.fast plans). Some of their broadband packages will also introduce a change to their current pricing later this morning (all on 18-month terms). As above, some of these plans will be free until the start of 2023.
Being honest, I'm not overly certain it's a great deal, however i guess you guys can make your mind up about it, I'll add a few related deals below for comparison, and my discussion on cheap broadband for those on universal credit etc.
Let me know what you think, and if it's a good scheme, would be nice if others followed suit, maybe this is a reaction to this from hyperoptic

sorted byThey can prise my £20/mo 67mb BT 30day from my cold dead hands (edited)
. Already on shell superfast fibre plus... Originally £21 a month, but since risen to £21.99
But I got cashback of £85.
So... Averages £16.9ish a month
Looking at Quidco, they are saying final average of £18.82 a month
Unless there is a way to find cashback plus free months ??
Else this deal ain't much of a deal
They took over my mother's landline only account from the Post Office in March, & they have gone from one cataclysmic blunder to another. Their website is garbage, & constantly down. It usually takes them weeks to reply to a simple email enquiry, & ringing them always takes a minimum of 40 minutes to get through. Even then their advisors are all seemingly poorly trained , 9 times out of 10 they can't answer your query anyway, without putting you on hold for another lengthy period, transferring you eventually to someone else that can't help you. A constant cycle of ineptitude followed by an apology. I would avoid them at all costs. (edited)
