Best Deal on Free Laptop/Broadband Offers...

Looking for a pay monthly broadband with free laptop offer.

Would ideally love the Red Dell Inspiron 1545 but will consider anything else. Only use BB to surf, send emails and download the odd MP3 so nothing major. Reckon a 3-5GB allowance per month would suffice.

Any help gratefully received

    You'd be better off buying a laptop yourself, then find a low cost broadband provider - you'll end up paying for the laptop over the course of a 24 month contract for a broadband connection which will be much cheaper elsewhere . . .

    There is a guide on some of the current deals here http://www.chooseisp.co.uk/broadband-gu.../free-laptop-deals.html

    It really depends on whether or not you'd be signing up for mobile broadband if it didn't come with a free laptop.

    If the answer's no - then as mrJ says, you'd be much better off just buying the laptop separately - it will be cheaper, no contract and you can choose exactly which laptop you want.

    If the answer's yes though - then carefully researched some deals will actually save up to £100 off the cost of buying the laptop and mobile broadband usage separately. You can also get extended warranties with O2 and Orange that mean the laptop is under warranty for the length of the contract - 2 years - rather than just 1.
