Broadband for less than a fiver?

Yet more rumours emerged today from the upcoming Carphone Warehouse announcment. The Independent is suggesting that Carphone Warehouse will offer a broadband package for £4.99 per month with the first three months for free through its TalkTalk brand. The only condition is that you have to pay your line rental to TalkTalk. But that isn’t much of a condition. TalkTalk offers line rental for the same price as BT and its calls are amongst the cheapest in the market. This is truly a stellar deal. £4.99 per month is half the price of the current best offer in the market, which is 1Mb unlimited broadband from UK Online for £9.99 per month.

A word of warning though: This has yet to announced by Carphone, so we should not count our chickens before they hatch. And we have no idea what kind of broadband product it will be. There maybe a very low usage cap. This would mean that even though the monthly cost is low, you may not be able to do much online before you reach a limit.
