Sky offering customers free broadband for three months, but you'll have to be quick

Leading Internet Service Provider Sky (ISP) is currently offering clients the chance to grab broadband without paying a single penny - but the incredible deal ends tomorrow.

The satellite TV firm is dishing out speedy internet access without charging consumers for the privilege for the first three months of their contract, but sadly, the deal which has been running throughout August will come to an end September 1.

Households signing up before the strict deadline will be treated to rapid 59Mbps download speeds, with payment not being taken by the ISP until the fourth month of the 18-month contract.

The Express reports that once the initial period ends, it will set you back £30.05 per month for the rest of the term - amounting to £457.50 in the long run. And although that may seem like a substantial figure, similar speeds for the same period from BT will set you back £539.82 (£29.99 per month), while Virgin Media will charge £684 (£38 per month).

Alongside the three-month deal from Sky, the provider is also offering half a year's worth of free broadband when new customers sign up to the Sky Q and Netflix bundle. That deal also brings with it 59Mbps speeds along with Sky TV channels and full access to the Netflix streaming platform.

For the first six month period - customers will only cover the £26 cost of Netflix and Sky Q, with prices rising to £56.50 for the remainder of the also 18-month contract.

Last but certainly not least, there's another deal for anyone wanting to take delivery of the Sky Glass television - which beams content to the big screen without the need for a traditional dish or box.

The connected TV, which also features a built-in sound bar, full voice control and backlit remote is available with six months broadband free of charge, as well as a £100 Mastercard - which can be spent in an abundance of stores across the UK.

Deals start from just £39 per month for the first six months and you can find full details here.
