New research shows that nine million Brits could be missing out on substantial savings on their mobile phone bills by remaining with their long-term mobile phone operator.
One-fifth of UK mobile phone users have never changed their network provider and over a quarter more haven’t switched mobile provider for more than five years. However, Brits could be overpaying, with those that switched and saved in the last three years saying they saved more than £100 a year on average. In fact, more than three quarters of a million people saved upwards of £240 a year.
Paul Sweeney, Managing Director at Sky Mobile, said: “The traditional mobile market has been disrupted by new players, but many mobile users do not realise the benefits that can be had from switching to these newer providers, particularly relating to cost. Half of Brits say they want cheaper mobile bills – and they could save £100 a year if they switched."
