Top social tariff broadband deals which could save you up to £180 this year

New DWP scheme now makes it easier for Sky customers to switch to £20 broadband deal.

Sky has become the first national connectivity provider to help their customers access cheaper broadband and mobile tariffs by signing up to the Department for Work and Pensions social tariff scheme for benefit claimants.

Minister for Social Mobility, Youth and Progression Mims Davies said: “It’s positive to see a major provider, such as Sky, sign up to our scheme, making it easier for families to access cheaper broadband and mobile tariffs in difficult times, and I call on other providers to follow suit in offering this type of tariff for those in need.

Sky and its subsidiary brand NOW join a growing list of providers signing up to the UK Government initiative to help millions access cut price broadband. Broadband social tariff take-up more than doubled in 2022 to 136,000 households and the cross-government Help for Households programme, which aims to help people with the increased cost of living, recently launched a UK-wide public awareness campaign to drive awareness and uptake further.
