Phorm CEO Mulling Plans To Pay Customers To Use Service

Our Comments

The discount, if it ever happens, will be quite small compared to the cost of the broadband connections. Talktalk for example offers Broadband for as little as £10 and O2 offers an 8Mbps connection for £7.50 for existing customers. A £1 discount would barely make a dent and would be a very, very cheap price to pay for one's surfing habits.
