Three of the UK’s top mobile broadband providers are planning to slash internet access prices in a bid to secure new customers.

In a head to head pricing battle, the 3 Network is planning to cut their Broadband Lite service to only £5 a month, which features a 2.8 megabit per second connection. Their 18-month contract features 1GB of downloads per month, along with a free USB dongle. However, to take advantage of this pricing scheme you must already be an existing 3 customer; with their cheapest tariff being £12 per month. New customers can still take advantage of the exact same service for £10 per month.

Vodaphone and Orange charge £15 a month for a 3GB service of downloads per month. That works out at £5 per GB of downloads, the same price as the 3 Network, whilst O2 charge £20 per month for the same service. T Mobile offer an unlimited download service, though their speeds aren’t as quick as some competitiors rates.
