Mobile operator and ISP O2 UK has attempted to soften the blow of recent price hikes (
here) by bringing back its popular
3 MONTHS FREE Broadband service discount. The offer applies to new customers who take any one of their 'up to' 20Mbps Home Broadband packages - '
The Basics', '
The All Rounder' or '
The Works'.
O2's Home Broadband packages can also be bundled with
O2 Home Phone (line rental and call) services from £7.50 per month or an existing
O2 Mobile contract; the latter results in additional savings off the standard monthly broadband price (about £5 per month).

Each package also comes with 10 free email addresses, McAfee Security and free 24/7 UK-based phone technical support. O2 also offers a 30-day contract option instead of the normal 12-month period, although this comes at an extra charge of £30.63.
However, take note that the 3 months free broadband offer ends on 30th April 2011 and is only available on 12 month contracts.
