Plusnet Contracts: Options Available

Plusnet is the largest and fastest-growing broadband provider in the UK. Their internet connections reach areas where other providers don't offer their services and also provide high-speed fibre for you to surf the web. However, there is a lot of confusion about what kind of Plusnet contract options are available when picking your broadband service from Plusnet. These are some of the options available:

Home Broadband Contracts:

Standard Broadband: In the case of standard broadband, you can sign a Plusnet contract with a minimum term, often lasting 12 or 18 months or one without one.

Fibre Broadband: For all fibre-based services, you must also sign a contract with a minimum term normally lasting 12 to 18 months.

Business Broadband Contracts:

Standard broadband: You can sign a Plusnet contract with a minimum duration, which is often 12 or 24 months, or choose a contract without one.

For all fibre services, including broadband, you must sign a contract with a minimum term lasting 12 or 24 months.

Plusnet Mobile Contracts

A limited number of affordable SIM-only offers are available from Plusnet Mobile. All are rolling 30-day plans, so if you decide it isn't working for you, you can cancel it or adjust your allotment.

Currently, Plusnet Mobile does not officially provide phone Plusnet contract plans; nevertheless, several resellers do so with a Plusnet SIM. Businesses like Carphone Warehouse and Mobiles.co.uk buy smartphones and SIM cards in large quantities before passing the savings on to you.

You'll be happy to learn that, due to these resellers, a phone contract agreement is still an option if you like the sound of a Plusnet Mobile SIM but were hoping for one.
