Why Families Are Leaving NOW Broadband

NOW Broadband (from Sky) markets itself on flexibility with no long contracts. But no-contract doesn't mean good value — you're paying a premium for that flexibility, and their speeds are often slower than competitors.

Here's what's happening right now:

  • NOW Broadband uses Sky's network but charges near-premium rates without the premium features
  • Their "Super Fibre" tops out at 63Mbps — many providers offer 300-900Mbps for similar prices
  • No contract means no loyalty discount — you're always paying the walk-in rate
  • Adding NOW TV memberships makes the total household cost surprisingly high

NOW Broadband vs SaveFirst — Side By Side

Here's how staying with NOW Broadband compares to switching through SaveFirst:

NOW Broadband SaveFirst
Average monthly energy cost £35/mo (broadband) £75–95/mo (exclusive rates)
Covers all 4 bills? Broadband only Gas, electric, broadband, mobile
Switching cost Possible exit fees Always free
Who does the work? You (phone calls, forms) We handle everything
Comparison site rates? Standard public rates Exclusive wholesale rates
Time to switch 2-4 weeks, multiple calls 2 minutes to start
Supply interruption None None

"I thought NOW was cheap because there's no contract. Then I realised I was getting 36Mbps for nearly the same price as full fibre at 300Mbps elsewhere. SaveFirst sorted my broadband AND cut my energy bill too."

Common Questions About Switching From NOW Broadband

It looks cheap at first glance, but NOW Broadband's speeds are significantly slower than alternatives at similar price points. When you compare price-per-megabit, NOW is often one of the worst value options. A free SaveFirst audit will find you faster broadband for less.

Since NOW is no-contract, you can leave any time. With SaveFirst, send us your current bill (a photo on WhatsApp is fine), and we handle everything. The broadband switchover is seamless.

NOW TV (now called NOW) memberships are separate from NOW Broadband. You can keep your NOW streaming subscriptions even after switching broadband providers.

Yes, completely free. We're paid by the provider when you switch — you never pay us anything. If we can't save you money, nobody pays anything and you stay exactly where you are.

The Bottom Line

NOW Broadband's no-contract flexibility is convenient — but you're paying a premium for slower speeds. Better broadband at a lower price is almost certainly available in your area.

A free SaveFirst audit takes 2 minutes and covers all your bills. If we can't save you money, you stay with NOW Broadband and nothing changes. If we can — and most families save £33/month or more — it's all yours.

There's literally no downside. The only risk is waiting another month.
