Mobile and internet provider giffgaff has today expanded their range of monthly rolling fixed full fibre (FTTP) broadband plans by introducing the option of a cheaper 24-month minimum contract term. The move makes the monthly pricing on each of their packages between £3 and £4 cheaper. Existing members will also get 3 months of service for free.
For example the service, which is currently powered by nexfibre’s new Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network (covering 2.6 million premises), previously charge from £29 per month for their entry-level 200Mbps (symmetric speed) tier on a rolling 30-day term (inc. installation, an eero 6+ router and a price lock until 2026). By comparison this drops to £25 on a 24-month term, where there’s also a commitment to no mid-contract price rises.
In addition, there’s also still the flexibility for members to change their broadband speed up or down each month with both the 24-month and monthly rolling broadband offerings.

Kate Dohaney, giffgaff CEO, said:
“Our promise of no hikes to our members’ bills for 24 months reflects giffgaff’s belief that fairness should be simple, people should always know exactly what they’re paying. No hikes, no haggling, no fuss. Just straightforward pricing and the great service our members expect from us. More than 4 million mobile members already trust giffgaff to keep things fair, and now they and others can bring that same experience into their homes with our broadband.”

Can we clarify where it says in the article “New subscribers will also get their first 3 months of service for free.”
Looking on their website it only mentions existing members (Mobile) being eligible for this promotion (same for the rolling monthly packages) it links to https://www.giffgaff.com/terms/promotions#bb-promo-jan-26
Already tweaked that, but thanks for the nudge. Must load up on extra coffee. Been a busy day.
Interesting that a VMO2 company is offering no in contract price rises on a 24 month term. Perhaps they have taken note of how the recent above in contract price rises bit its parent in the a***. Perhaps competition will drive this incidious practice out & companies will price properly in the first place.
