With the cost of living increasing we’re all looking for ways to save some pennies. Paying for a monthly broadband connection can be expensive but there’s currently a way to get online at a much cheaper price. Shell Energy, which supplies UK homes via BT’s Openreach technology, has just slashed prices across a swathe of its plans.

Right now you can get online for as little as £17.99 per month. That cheap price is for Shell’s basic 11Mbps service which is suitable for homes that simply want to browse the web and answer a few emails.
Those wanting something faster will also find Shell has cut the cost of its Superfast Fibre and Superfast Fibre Plus packages. Superfast, which features 38Mbps speeds, now costs £21.99 (saving over £10) whilst Shell’s 67Mbps Superfast Fibre Plus is now £23.99 (saving over £13).

This is good news if you don’t mind switching suppliers and you’re looking to cut down on your bills but things get even better if you join Shell via Broadband Genie. The comparison website is currently offering a £100 Amazon gift card when consumers sign up and take out a broadband plan with Shell.

There’s no catch with the voucher appearing in your inbox once the contract is signed. All you need to do is supply an email address to Broadband Genie to take advantage of the offer.
WHAT SPEEDS DO YOU REALLY NEED?
We all want faster broadband but do you really those blisteringly quick downloads? The faster your package the more you’ll pay each month so it’s worth checking to see if your home would cope with a slower connection.
