The Advantages of Bundling Services: Combining TV, Internet, and Phone for Savings

With the prices of every day goods and services soaring and inflation showing no signs of slowing down, it’s important to do everything you can to save money each month. Fortunately you can take advantage of bundled packages that give you a great price when you combine the high speed home Internet, TV and fixed line telephone services that you need.

When you choose the best Internet, TV and phone packages, you’ll be able to configure your bundle so you get the right coverage and options for you. You can choose your internet speed and create a full coverage home Internet network too. Melita’s NexTV provides a fully featured television experience, with great entertainment options like 7 day Catch Up and Record and streaming via their App. When you add telephone and a mobile service, you’ll be covered and connected everywhere you go.

Cost Savings With Packages

Instead of paying separate monthly charges for each of the services you need, you can create your own custom Flexi bundle that has the perfect high-end services you need. You’ll save a lot of money each month when you take advantage of this special package pricing. In addition to the bundled savings, if you choose All in+ your 3rd mobile plan, and your 4th, and your 5th, is discounted to only €15.99 per month.

If you paid for each service separately, the initial monthly a la carte pricing for fibre powered internet (€25.99), TV Starter NexTV (€10.49) and Telephony (€10.49) would total €46.97. By choosing bundled services, you’ll get these same three items for an initial monthly price of only €25.99. You could use the savings to pay for your Endless mobile phone service coverage.

Convenience

Most of us have way too much going on in our lives, so anything we can do to make things simpler and easier on ourselves is a plus. When you purchase a service bundle, you’ll eliminate the need to manage multiple accounts and multiple due dates for your bills. The convenience of having all of these key services appear in one bill will make your life simpler.

Choosing a Residential or Business Account

With Melita’s fibre powered internet, you’ll have the high speed service you need to easily work remotely from home. The 500×50 or 1,000×60 Mbps will provide all the bandwidth you need to conduct video calls and handle any office-related tasks or assignments.

If you are self employed or a sole trader who operates with a VAT number, you’ll need to register for a Business internet account rather than a residential account.

The Main Components of a Service Bundle

One of the best things about creating your own service bundle is that you can make customised choices along the way. You’ll get to pick the right level and category of service for high speed home Internet, TV package, fixed line telephone and mobile phone service plans too.
