Almost every household in the UK has broadband internet these days - hopefully few people are still persisting with dial-up! With so many different providers to choose from, the choice can be vast, but it also means we can easily find a good deal, as each company tries to compete against the others.

There are packages available to suit all types of internet users and budgets. There are 3 main Sky broadband packages to choose from. Sky Broadband Lite, the most basic package, is perfect for light internet users, as it has a 2GB monthly usage allowance, so is good for daily browsing, online shopping and emails, for example. You don't want this package if you're going to need the internet to do any more than that, otherwise you will incur penalties as and when you exceed your limit.

Sky Broadband Unlimited, on the other hand, offers totally unlimited broadband with no usage caps at all. You can also opt for the package without television attached plus line rental. Sky Fibre Unlimited is the provider's fibre optic service, which offers extra fast speeds and is ideal for homes that have a heavy internet usage and may ...
... do a lot of downloading files, streaming video content or online gaming.

Virgin Media, the company's main rival when it comes to fighting for the majority of the broadband market in the UK, also has a fibre optic broadband service available to customers, although it may not be available in every part of the country, so be sure to check your eligibility beforehand. According to Ofcom 2012, the provider has the fastest average broadband download speeds, making for a speedy and reliable connection to customers. It also won four awards in 2013 at the uSwitch Broadband Awards - Best Broadband Provider, Best WiFi Service, Fastest Home Broadband and Best Broadband Innovation.

With various Virgin Media Broadband Packages to choose from, customers are easily able to find a package that suits their requirements and budget. The new Super Hub provides super speedy and reliable connections, giving households an optimum online experience. It comes at no extra charge with any up to 60 Mb or up to 100Mb broadband package.

The good news is that it does not even need a phone line in order to work. However, bundled deals can be a good idea for households that are looking for home phone and digital television services, alongside their broadband package.
These are also known as Collections and help to save money, as well as to keep things simple by having everything provided by the same company. All Collections also include up to 30Mb broadband as standard. It is even possible to take one step further and combine a mobile phone deal into the mix - the choice is entirely yours, so why not see where you can take your Collections bundle?

Free internet security is provided with the broadband packages in order to keep your computer safe from any internet threats. This includes virus protection, malware and spyware, and parental controls. Unlimited downloads are available on unlimited packages, where you can download and browse as much as you wish to without any caps or hidden charges to worry about.
