Broadband for 99 cent or more false advertising?
Irish broadband provider Perlico has been making waves in the last few days with their "99 cent broadband" offer.
Does it sound too good to be true?
Well, putting it bluntly, it is.
Even if you were to factor in the below cost selling as being a cheaper way of acquiring clients, the figures simply did not add up.
The 99 cent broadband deal is actually 40.99. That's 40 euro more than advertised.
They may claim that there are "terms and conditions" etc., etc., but who are they kidding?
If you claim to be offering 99 cent broadband, then why can't I actually buy it for 99 cents?
