Plusnet Revive 6 Months FREE Unlimited 38Mbps FTTC Broadband Deal

UK ISP Plusnet has reintroduced the offer of 6 months free service on their up to 38Mbps Unlimited Fibre (FTTC) broadband package (£14.99 per month thereafter), which is perhaps slightly awkward timing given today’s other advertising related news.

As usual new subscribers will also have to take the ISPs Phone Line Rental from £16.99 per month or the monthly equivalent of £15.49 when pre-paid for a year in advance. Apparently this latest offer will be available to order until 22nd March 2016.

Unlimited Fibre (up to 38Mbps)
* Download speeds of up to 38Mbps
* Upload speeds of up to 1.9Mbps
* Unlimited usage
* Free Hub One wireless router
* Free activation
* Parental controls (network-level)
* 18 Month contract

PRICE: £0.00 for the first 6 months (£14.99 thereafter) + line rental

As usual this service is only available to around 80-85% of the UK covered by the Openreach Fibre-to-the-Cabinet (FTTC / VDSL) network, although the network is continuing to expand and at a fairly rapid pace.

On the downside PlusNet’s standard ‘up to’ 17Mbps unlimited broadband (ADSL) package has separately ended its free period and returned to using the more familiar discount of £2.50 per month for the first 12 months of service (£9.99 thereafter). This is obviously a different package from the one above.

Take note that those in the final 10% or so of predominantly rural areas tend to be charged several pounds per month more for the standard service because they reside outside of the ISPs “low cost area“.
