Broadband Cost Calculator

Compare your current broadband price with a new deal across the same contract period, including an upfront setup fee.

Inputs

Compare two broadband deals across the full contract term.

Compare the full contract cost

A lower introductory monthly price may still include setup, activation or delivery charges. Comparing the same number of months gives a clearer view than looking only at the headline price.

Check mid-contract price changes

Some broadband contracts include annual price changes. This simple calculator assumes the entered monthly prices remain constant, so review the provider's contract summary before switching.

Worked examples

Comparing an 18-month deal

Enter both monthly prices, the new-deal setup fee and 18 months to compare total committed cost and the price difference.

How we calculate this

The current monthly price is multiplied by the contract length.

The new monthly price is multiplied by the same period and the entered setup fee is added.

The lower total is identified. Exit fees, rewards, annual price changes and equipment return charges are excluded.

FAQs

Will my actual cost match exactly?

Not necessarily. Appliance behaviour, tariff changes, standby use, household habits and billing periods can make the real figure different.

Should I include cashback or vouchers?

Only include them after checking eligibility and how they are paid. This calculator does not automatically deduct rewards from the new-deal total.

Does it include an early exit fee?

No. Add any unavoidable exit fee to the setup-fee field or account for it separately before switching.
