Switching up your internet provider could save you hundreds. 

NZ Compare has found that households could save up to $360 a year by changing their broadband providers. 

While the cost of living has six in ten people struggling with household finances, the study found that only two in ten would consider switching providers. 

Gavin Male, CEO of NZ Compare, told Mike Hosking that it’s often due to apathy or a perceived complexity. 

Broadband is often tied to other services, he said, so customers —rightly or wrongly— think that it’s complex to get out of. 

Male said that while the convenience of the bundles is lovely, the savings aren’t necessarily as good as they look.
