Switch to Three for your broadband, and enjoy 50% off your monthly bills.
You probably associate Three with discount SIM deals and pay monthly deals, but the brand also uses its nationwide 5G network to power fast home Wi-Fi too. For a limited time, Three has slashed its unlimited 5G home broadband package down to £11 — from £21 for the first six months of your new contract.
And the timing couldn't be better. This spring deal comes as annual broadband price hikes hit millions across the UK. Most telecom brands will increase monthly Direct Debits by a fixed pound-and-pence rise to comply with recent Ofcom rule changes sometime this month.
Not sure how much extra you'll need to spend? That depends on the brand that handles your full-fibre broadband, but expect to spend between £36 and £48 extra over the next 12 months for the same connection.
If you're faced with the prospect of paying more for the same broadband speed and service, switching to a new deal is a sure-fire way to save money — or unlock faster speeds for the same amount.
Get 5G home broadband from Three for half price
Three Home Broadband blasts away the old-school setup drama with genuinely plug‑and‑play, 5G‑powered internet that needs no landline, no engineer and no endless waiting. Order before 8pm, and you’ll have your hub by the next working day — just plug it in, and your home Wi-Fi will be powered by "the UK’s fastest 5G network" in minutes, the mobile network promises. Three UK even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for new subscribers. Plus, they'll even pay you up to £200 on your last bill when you switch.

Following the increased costs, many other providers are also offering competitive deals. Sky's full-fibre broadband packages have plummeted to their "lowest ever" price. Virgin Media is also offering its "lowest ever" deals on its broadband and TV bundles. And EE's broadband prices have dropped to £0 for the first three months of your plan.
Most internet suppliers reserve their best deals for new subscribers, with loyalty rarely rewarded. Even if you're happy with the service from your current provider, it could still be worth switching to cut monthly bills or unlock faster speeds for the same cost. Regularly bouncing between brands ensures you're not being overcharged or missing out.
Three will even pay your exit fees up to £200 if you're still in the minimum term of your contract.

This isn't the only broadband provider to pay you to switch, either.
Currently, Virgin Media will give you up to £250 in the form of a credit, whereas Sky and Vodafone will pay you up to £200 to switch. BT and EE will even pay you up to £300 if you decide to opt into one of their plans.
What's particularly notable about Three's broadband service is that there's no need to organise a visit from an engineer to drill holes in your walls and connect any new cables.
Three UK's Wi-Fi router has a small SIM card inside – exactly like a smartphone – that taps into the fast internet speeds available over the 5G network. Better yet, since there's no cable, you can move the plug-and-play router around your house to fit the perfect spot for coverage to all rooms and devices.
With an average download speed of 150Mbps, you'll be able to stream Netflix in 4K UHD (15Mbps minimum), make a high-quality video call on WhatsApp (4Mbps minimum), or watch live footage from your Ring video doorbell (2Mbps minimum) all at the same time without any hiccups or buffering.

While the method of delivering an internet connection to your router is pretty different with Three UK compared to other broadband providers, it shouldn't make a difference once you're connected to the Wi-Fi beamed out by the router.
If you're a little sceptical about whether a 5G-fuelled Wi-Fi connection can compete with a traditional underground cable, you're not alone. Three UK is clearly aware that it might have to work hard to convince you to make the switch.
However, their team is so confident in its service that they're offering a 30-day money-back guarantee on their home broadband solution. And there's no setup fee, so you can truly try them out for free.
