The only catch is that Community Fibre is only available for London homeowners or renters around the capital. However, there is a time limit as the deal finishes today, at 11:59pm this August 5.

Community Fibre offers the package with no set-up fee, a free router, and only a £2 yearly increase in bills. That means that in April next year,users will onlypay £22 a month compared to other companies that can hike the prices even more.

Alternatively, PlusNet is offering shoppers a free £75 reward card with its broadband packages, with prices starting from £24.99 a month. There's also Vodafone, which hascompetitivebroadband deals for most people around the country, and Vodafone will pay up to £100 to cover cancellation fees.

Community Fibre also has great Trustpilot reviews from shoppers. One reviewer said: "We have recently bought Community Fibre Broadband and the performance is great. The broadband is fast, and the range of the WiFi signal covers a good distance.

"The signal reaches every corner of the house, giving good reception to the internet. We are satisfied with the service provided by Community Fibre.

"It is worth it, and the speed we are receiving is 150 Mbps, which is super fast. The internet has not stopped or had any issues so far."

Another reviewer added: "I have been with Community Fibre for nearly three years. They have outstanding internet, outstanding staff, and wonderful customer service."

However, some shoppers did complain about installations feeling rushed. One reviewer who left four stars said: "I felt the installation was slightly rushed.

"It would have been better to have a more explanation as to how the mesh system works, best practices and the WiFi signal tested through the house. The installer has also left a bunch of cables at the bottom of the telephone post".
