The new method effectively replaces the large one-off setup cost with a monthly rental payment of \u00a312.50 on a 24 month contract.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The providers related terminal equipment set comes complete with a Dish with Az\/El mount, Transceiver, Satmodem, 30m RF cable between Transceiver and Satmodem, Ethernet cable to connect to a computer or router, 240v mains power supply and CD documentation.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, you still have to pay for the kit but instead of doing that in a lump sum you can now spread it out over the course of two years, which makes for quite a sizable service rental when added to the package cost. Crucially the standard <strong>activation and installation costs<\/strong> still apply, which means there&#8217;s another one-off cost of around \u00a3200 or more to setup.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Mike Locke, SI&#8217;s Managing Director, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>With our new equipment rental scheme we hope to make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/satellite\">satellite<\/a> broadband more accessible to new customers and get more of the UK connected. We pride ourselves on offering a fast and reliable service harnessing the power of Astra Connect from SES Broadband Services.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Our service can be used anywhere in the UK, as long as the user can have a dish installed to their property with a clear view of the southern sky in much the same way as you would expect with TV services. It\u2019s a great alternative solution for those who live in remote locations where terrestrial broadband isn\u2019t a viable option. Our new, affordable rental scheme is another step towards finally breaking down the digital divide which still very much exists in the country<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It should be noted that <strong>\u00a312.50 * 24 Months = \u00a3300<\/strong>, which means the service is now even more expensive because you could otherwise take the equipment for just <strong>\u00a3229<\/strong> on a much shorter <strong>12 month contract<\/strong>. We imagine the extra cost is to cover the ISP&#8217;s risk in handing over expensive equipment on a rental basis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadband provider Satellite Internet, which delivers its service via the SES (ASTRA) platform of spacecraft, has followed the example of some rival ISPs and launched their own optional &#8220;low-cost equipment rental scheme&#8220;.
