As of next week, it will be far simpler for UK internet consumers to access broadband for cheaper. Most of Britain's larger Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are already offering cheaper discounts for families in receipt of benefits like Universal Credit - but many aren't taking advantage of the deals with a lack of knowledge.
Recent statistics show that just 1.2 per cent of eligible parties have taken up ISPs on cut-price packages, with entitlement confusion as well as the hassle of proving that benefits are being claimed being a couple of reasons why people aren't taking up more affordable plans.
That's all about to change however, with a new Department for Work and Pensions scheme coming into play next week - which allows ISPs to do all of the intricate groundwork for customers across the UK.
