NOW Broadband - New Customers Cashback Offers & Discounts

NOW Broadband - New Customers Features

• What’s so special about NOW Broadband?

  Whether you go for a Brilliant Broadband, Fab Fibre or Super Fibre package, you’ll learn that NOW are all about value, making it no surprise the company was crowned Best Value Broadband Provider by Uswitch in 2020.

  This emphasis on value is reflected in the prices of their contracts and the fact they offer some of the shortest, lowest-commitment contracts of all broadband providers. NOW Broadband offers are perfect for customers who don’t want to commit to a lengthy contract because all of their broadband contracts start at just 12 months in length.

  So, if you want to change providers after the first year, you can do so with no termination fees. Or, if you don’t want to be tied down to a contract at all, you can opt for a NOW Broadband deal with no contract. All you have to do is pay one upfront activation fee of £60 and then make your monthly contract payments as normal, and you’ll be free to cancel any time.

  And in the spirit of saving money, customers will be happy to know NOW don’t charge any set-up or activation fees when you take out a contract either. The only upfront cost will be your first monthly payment of your contract and the £5 delivery charge for your NOW broadband router.

  If you’re currently a broadband customer of BT, EE, TalkTalk or Plusnet and you want to switch broadband providers, NOW will swap you over to your new contract without you having to lift a finger. Who knew switching to a cheap broadband network could be so easy?

  NOW Broadband also advertise a guaranteed minimum download speed clause, which means if your internet speed falls lower than your guaranteed minimum speed at peak-time (you can measure it with a quick speed test), you may be able to leave your contract free of charge.

  Of course, NOW will do everything they can to help improve your broadband speed before it gets to this point, but if they can’t resolve the problem within 30 days you may be eligible to end your contract early.

• Extra add-ons

  With any NOW Broadband deal, line rental is free and you’ll have free anytime calls included for the first 12 months of your contract.

  Many other companies charge an additional cost of as much as £8 per month for anytime UK call packages, or only offer the most basic phone deals (such as evening and weekend calls) for free. If your household makes a lot of UK calls, whether they’re to other landlines or mobile phones, then we don’t think you’ll find a better deal from any other broadband provider.

  After your 12-month contract period is up, you can stick with your anytime calls monthly contract for as little as £8 a month. Alternatively, you could add an evening and weekend calls package (we’ve seen prices as low as just £4 per month for this add-on, which is ridiculously cheap).

  When you select your chosen NOW Broadband package, you’ll also have the option to add on some entertainment passes to your bundle at a fraction of the usual price. Whether you’re a serious binger of TV box sets, love streaming movies, or you’re an avid sports fan, you can get your hands on some NOW TV passes discounted by as much as 50% a month for the first year of your plan.

  You don’t even need a NOW Broadband discount code to access these cheaper entertainment bundles; you simply click a button and it’ll be added to your cart. We recently did some snooping and noticed you can get a NOW Entertainment membership or Cinema pass from as little as £4.99 a month, or a Sports pass for under £20 a month, so there are some huge savings to be made. With these kinds of deals, broadband isn’t even the most exciting part. And when you can get your TV,broadband, phone, and free set-up all in the same 12-month contract at a great price, what’s not to like?

• Useful website features

  The NOW website has many useful features for confused customers, including their quick online availability checker, as well as customer service contact information (where you’ll have the option for a live chat or a call with a phone advisor).

  You’ll also find a selection of articles answering questions you might have regarding your new broadband, relating to things like managing payments, membership cancellation and other general issues.

  NOW also have a community support site where NOW Broadband customers can chat with each other to quickly find resolutions to their problems. There are also members of the NOW team on hand to help answer queries raised by the community. When you sign up for a NOW Broadband account, you'll get access to this help centre service too.

Not everybody needs the absolute quickest broadband speeds in order to get the most out of their provider. Yes, the idea of download speeds of 900Mbps and even Gigabit (1,000Mbps) may sound incredibly enticing, but if we’re not going to get the most out of such premium speeds, why should we be paying for them?

Speeds between 50Mbps and 100Mbps are well suited to households with two to four people for usage including normal internet browsing, working from home and streaming HD/4K music and video, as well as gaming (including multiplayer). NOW broadband offers excellent value for the speeds you get, plus they’re one of the cheapest broadband providers overall. Past offers have included full fibre packages with average speeds of 63Mbps for just £21 a month. It’s no surprise then that they were crowned Uswitch Best Value Broadband Provider winner for 2020.

If you decide to take up a NOW Broadband deal, you’ll find they’re flexible too, with contracts starting from as short as 12 months. If a 12-month contract isn’t low-commitment enough for you, you can even choose to have a rolling month-by-month contract instead, so you can cancel at any time with no early termination costs. NOW are one of the only broadband providers out there to offer rolling monthly contracts, which are perfect for people who don’t like to be tied down to a long contract.

What’s more, with many NOW Broadband packages, you can get your NOW TV passes at a discounted price too (sometimes as much as half price). Whether you’re a film fanatic looking to make the most of a NOW Cinema pass or are barmy for box sets and fancy a NOW Entertainment pass, you’re bound to find an entertainment package that suits you.
