Deals, Internet Buying Guides
Listen, we love a traditional deal as much as the next guy, but we can admit internet deals can’t be one-size-fits-all. Sometimes you have to go outside of the box to strategically find the very best options internet providers have to offer. This week, we’re helping you do just that. Read on to find out how.
The best deal of the week!

Strategies to save big
Sure, clicking on a pre-existing deal is a great way to save, but you shouldn’t overlook your other options. If you’re willing to put in just a tiny bit of effort, there are some clever ways to keep money in your pocket without breaking a sweat.
Target new customer promos
Most providers reserve the deepest discounts for new customers. Switching providers once your initial contract ends is one of the most effective ways to keep a low monthly rate. To really maximize your savings, try to stay mindful of upcoming price hikes and promo expiration dates. You’ll thank yourself later. Be sure to read our guide on how to get the most cash out of choosing and switching internet providers.
Negotiate your bill
Believe it or not, you don’t always have to switch providers to re-up your savings. Many providers have unadvertised loyalty discounts or retention offers available to keep you from leaving. A quick call to mention a competitor’s lower price could trigger a better deal on your current plan and cut your costs without the need for any new equipment. We think it’s worth a shot. Check out our step-by-step guide on how to squeeze better rates out of your internet provider.
Compare providers
Using our zip tool is one of the easiest ways to see if you’re overpaying. Compare your current bill against the newest local promotions to see if it’s time to switch or negotiate a better rate. Plus, this tool is also a great way to see which provider is currently winning the price war in your neighborhood. The sooner you try, the sooner you save.
