DEAL: New Be Value Package Available

Be Broadband has won numerous awards in the last few years thanks to its fast speeds, reliable connections and above average customer service. This week the company has changed its long standing Be Value product so that speeds of up to 8 Mbps and Upload speeds of around 1.2 Mbps are available from the company for the price of ?7.50 rather than the previous charge of ?13.50.

However, it?s important to note that the package is now a limited bandwidth deal, giving users 40 GB of data every month rather than the previously available unlimited option which is now only available on the higher end packages for the company.

However, this move still represents a good deal for people looking for cheap cost, high speed broadband that generally shines in terms of both speed and reliability. Be Broadband recently topped the upload speed charts for all UK ISPs in December and came second for overall download speeds only to Virgin Media, who are a cable company that use a different type of web technology altogether.

The deal offers everything the older deal had except the unlimited connection, making it good for people who required high speed broadband in small bursts and don?t want to have to pay a premium for an unlimited connection. If you intend to download heavily or regularly engage in high bandwidth activities such as video streaming, you?ll be better finding another package or looking at Be?s more higher priced schemes that include an unlimited connection, which makes it a good option for people that need fast

It?s unclear if existing users of the value package will be able to migrate to the new offer before their 12 month contract finishes, although it seems unlikely.

Head of Operations at Be, Tom Williams said:

?The trends we?re seeing are for no traffic management allowing more freedom and of course lower prices. Our members demand the freedom to prioritise and think for themselves, not have their broadband provider do it for them. We believe there a lot of customers that will leap at the chance to get a service that doesn?t slow down based on the content of their downloads but don?t use the internet enough to justify an unlimited product.”
