I'm hesitant to switch because the new ones are always an unknown; e.g. they might bundle hidden fees where you're not expecting it. At least with the devil you know, there's some peace of mind
OFCOM have pretty much made it so hidden fees can't be put on any broadband contract.
Your provider has to tell you
I'd recommended using MoneySavingExpert to compare deals (other price comparison sites are usually untrustworthy), and they often throw additional stuff like supermarket vouchers too
Good to know!
I think you should be more careful with the existing one. Your assuming that nothing has changed in the fine print when if I understand he situation correctly, your signing a new contract with the current supplier. As in new t&C's potentially. At least new customer acquisition is mildly incentivised to be plain about their billing what with the cooling of periods etc that exist.
I'm not signing my life away... but yes I'd advise some caution when doing this.
Agreed, but with the current supplier I at least know where on the website to find the T&C
