00:00Because prices have gone up and because you are unlikely to see your

00:05contractual price rise now until next April, if you do a comparison now, the

00:10prices you're comparing to are also unlikely to rise, there may be new deals

00:14but the one that you switch to will be unlikely to rise, you have a level

00:17playing field for comparison. You can see whether you are going to save or not, so

00:22this is the right time of year, I mean it's always a good time, but this is the

00:26perfect time of year to get a fair comparison where you can see how much

00:31you will save and the savings here, it is not small potatoes. Tias Bear tweeted me

00:38about this a couple of months ago, I've had loads come in today but I like this

00:43one a couple of months ago because it does both subjects. I managed to get my

00:46phone bill down from £52 a month to SIM only for £9, plus my

00:51fibre broadband from £32 a month to £20, well happy, £660 a year saved and

00:57there are 20 million people out of contract, therefore free to move. This is

01:04a no-brainer for those 20 million people but if you sit on your

01:07mobile and broadband you are likely paying far more than you need or

01:12frankly you're being ripped off and you will not be getting enough data and you

01:17will be not getting fast enough speeds, so you will not only be paying too much

01:20but you will have sub service level products and that is something that you

01:26need to check out. There'll be some out there who've got it all sorted and for

01:29you, wonderful, but for tens of millions of people in the UK paying too much on

01:35your broadband and it's not fast enough, you're paying too much on your mobile

01:38and you're not getting enough data.
