Square Peg comparison routes
Compare twice.
Decide once.
No comparison service sees absolutely every deal. We route you to established UK services, then show you the checks that stop a cheap headline becoming an expensive mistake.

Check the total
Include fees, excesses, annual rises and the price after an offer ends.
Check direct too
Ask your current provider and check any provider that is not on the comparison panel.
Before you leave Square Peg
Three minutes now can prevent a bad switch.
1. Write down what you have. Price, important cover or allowance, contract end date and any exit fee.
2. Decide what must not get worse. That may be broadband speed, insurance cover, mobile signal or access to savings.
3. Compare the full cost. Ignore the headline until fees, excesses, annual increases and offer-end dates are included.

The honest bit
No single comparison covers the whole market.
Prices can change quickly and some providers sell only through their own websites. The cheapest result is not always the best fit once fees, service and exclusions are included.
The Broadband Genie comparison link may earn Square Peg a commission on an eligible purchase. Other links are labelled by route. Payment will never decide the result of the Square Peg Check.
