1. Always discounts for new customers.
Every telecommunications company is trying to offer discounts to attract new customers. Some even do not mind temporarily increasing the number of customers base at cost or even below cost. So, you will see some of the broadband plans on the market are really cheap. As a consumer, this is of course a good news and better than renewal! But if you really like the current operator and wish to renew the contract, you can note that in general, the later you renew your contract, the more favorable the offer will be.
2. Online registration is the best
For telecommunications companies, electronic channel is very cost-effective, because it can save a lot of costs, especially commissions. Therefore, they will convert these costs to attract customers to online registration, launch a number of online limited offers or have a lot of promotional codes. You may wish to use online registration, which is very convenient and even better!
3. The prices of public and private buildings are mostly different.
Basically, most telecommunications operators adopt a strategy of charging public housing flats cheaper than private flats, with the exception of CMHK . Whenever there are large housing estates coming, the major telecommunications companies will have many discounts!
