If you claim certain benefits you could be missing out on a cheaper broadband deal.
Social tariffs for cheaper broadband
Lots of internet providers offer 'social tariffs' to people on benefits, but the take up of these lower price deals remains quite low as these offers have not been well promoted.
Both OFCOM and Money Saving expert Martin Lewis have provided valuable information on how to apply for these tariffs.
If you are not on benefits but you are struggling to pay your broadband bills, you should call your internet service provider to see if they can offer an alternative package.
If you are not tied to you current broadband deal by a contract, you can use a price comparison website like uswitch.com to compare deals.
