Here are the best limited time offers from O2, Orange, Tiscali, AOL and 3 broadband.

Tiscali Broadband for £6.49

Offer ends: 31st March 2008

Yes, you’ve seen the annoying adverts (Broadband better than sex? Really, Tiscali?) now here’s the slightly less annoying broadband offer.

It’s £6.49 for the first three months then £12.99 for the rest of your twelve month contract.

You do have to sign up to Tiscali for your calls and you’ll need a BT line.

However, with up to 8 Mbps speeds, unlimited downloads, a free wireless router, free set up and free weekend UK and international calls to 01 and 02 numbers it sounds like a pretty good deal.

Half-Price Orange Broadband

Offer ends: 31st March 2008

You don’t have to be an Orange mobile customer to take advantage of this fantastic half price offer.

Orange’s Home Starter and Home Max packages are both half price for the first six months.

That makes Home Starter £6 then £12 with two mb/s speeds and a modest 6 GB of downloads and Home Max £12 then £24 with eight mb/s and unlimited downloads.

To put it another way switch to Orange before the thirty first and you’ll save £36 on an eighteen month Home Starter package and £72 on an eighteen month Home Max package.

Cheaper O2 Broadband for non-O2 customers

Offer ends: 30th April 2008

We say this a lot but only because it’s true… O2 broadband is very good.

The biggest problem with it is that it’s so much more expensive for non-O2 customers. But up to the end of April there are no excuses because prices for non-O2 customers have been reduced by £5 a month.

That means that:

• The Standard (8mb/s) package is £12.50
• The Premium (16 mb/s) package is £15
• The Ultimate (20 mb/s) package is £20

Free Laptop when you get 3 Mobile Broadband

Offer ends: TBA

PC world are doing this great offer on 3 mobile broadband.

Now, obviously PC world don’t usually do broadband but they do mobile broadband because you need the little bit of tech (alright, if we must the ‘dongle’ - whoever came up with that one should be fired) that allows you to connect to the internet wherever you are.

The broadband deal is £35 a month for eighteen months with a download allowance of 3 GB a month.

According to 3 those 3 GBs work out as about 2000 normal emails, 100 hours of looking at websites, 100 two-minute videos and 200 songs. You will be charged at a rate of 10p per MB after you go over these limit, just remember to check your usage.

The free computer is the Ei system 4315. It comes with a celeron processor, 80GB HD, 1GB RAM and Vista Home Premium.

Free Laptop/ Playstation 3 with AOL Broadband and the Carphone Warehouse

Offer ends: While Stocks Last

This offer was due to end on the 31st of March but we’re guessing they’ve still got loads of stuff to give away because now it’s while stocks last.

A free Dell laptop or PlayStation 3 when you sign up to AOL Wireless plus.

To get the cheapest price you have to sign up to one of AOL’s call packages - that’s £19.99 a month. You can get the package without the call package for £29.99 a month.
