When a 12-Month Deal Makes Sense
You are renting on a one-year tenancy, a 12-month deal aligns with your lease and avoids early exit fees if you move out at the end of the year.
You have recently moved and are not sure how long you will stay. A shorter commitment reduces your risk if circumstances change.
Your current contract is about to end and you want to trial a new provider before committing to two years.
You want to switch more frequently and capture new-customer deals every year rather than being locked to one provider for two years.
Drawbacks to Know Before You Sign
- Monthly cost is typically a few pounds higher than an equivalent 24-month deal
- Sky, BT and Virgin Media do not offer standard 12-month packages, limited to smaller providers
- Fewer TV bundle options are available on 12-month terms
- Some areas have limited 12-month provider choice, check your postcode first
How to Compare 12-Month Broadband Deals on Switch
Find a shorter deal that works for your situation
Enter Your Postcode
Switch identifies which 12-month providers cover your specific address, regional full-fibre networks like Hyperoptic and Community Fibre are only available in selected cities and postcodes.
Filter for 12-Month Contracts
Set the contract length filter to 12 months to remove 18 and 24-month deals from your results. You can also filter for no-price-rise guarantees to confirm your rate is fixed for the full term.
Calculate Total Contract Cost
Multiply the monthly cost by 12 and add any setup or router delivery fees. This gives you the true cost to compare — not just the headline monthly rate.
Sign Up and Get Connected
Click through to your chosen provider and complete sign-up. Most installations take 2-4 weeks. Give your current provider 30 days notice if you are mid-contract to avoid exit fees.

Are 12-month broadband deals more expensive?
