Zen Internet broadband deals
While Zen Internet doesn't offer as many promotional deals or incentives as some of its rivals, it has a range of packages that include standard, superfast and ultrafast options. Changes to the way landline phone services work in the UK mean that Zen Internet now offers cheaper broadband-only deals for those happy to forgo a landline.
Zen Internet prices tend to remain fairly static and - unlike many other providers - Zen commits to keeping your price the same for the full length of your contract.

How much is Zen Internet broadband?
Zen Internet offers 18-month broadband packages with speeds ranging from 10Mbps to 2Gbps. It uses both the Openreach and CityFibre networks to deliver its connections – deals provided via the CityFibre network are generally a little cheaper. What's available depends on your location.

Zen Internet broadband speeds
Zen Internet offers fast partial fibre services with average download speeds of either 35Mbps or 61Mbps.
Zen Internet also offers ultrafast full fibre broadband to customers in certain locations – for most, packages with average speeds of 100Mbps, 300Mbps, 500Mbps and 900Mbps are on offer.
A few locations can now also get its Full Fibre Max deal, which offers speeds of up to 2Gbps (that's a whopping 2,300Mbps).
Does Zen Internet put up broadband prices every year?
No – unlike other providers, Zen Internet promises to keep your tariff the same for the duration of your broadband contract.
What is the latest Zen broadband router?
Zen Internet supplies the Fritz!Box 7530 AX router to all new broadband customers with speeds of up to 900Mbps. Zen says that the router is 'designed to meet the needs of modern households with multiple devices and high bandwidth demands'.
The router is free but there's a £15 setup fee.
Full Fibre Max customers get an Eero Pro 6E router, which has free setup and offers 'seamless, reliable coverage to every corner of your home'.
What is Zen EveryRoom?
EveryRoom is an add-on you can include with Zen Internet broadband services. If you sign up, Zen will send you a Fritz!Repeater 3000 wi-fi extender to help improve the signal strength throughout your home.
If you take up EveryRoom, Zen guarantees you'll have wi-fi in every room of your home – as long as it is no larger than 170 sq m (this is double the size of the average UK home). Like most similar services, outbuildings are excluded.
If one extender doesn't do the trick, Zen will send a second one – there's a postage fee, but it won't affect the amount you pay each month.
EveryRoom costs £9 a month plus a £9 postage fee, and you'll need to commit to a 12-month term.
