A new nine-month contract deal aimed at students has been launched onto the market by Be Broadband.

The firm, a leading broadband provider in the UK, has announced that both its BE Unlimited and BE Pro packages can now be subscribed to for only nine months.

Both of the short-term deals are ideal for students and the offer is only available through the broadband provider's website until October 16th.

The Unlimited deal offers users download speeds of up to 24Mb, with no usage limited, for £17.50 a month.

If customers opt for the Pro package, then for £21.50 per month they can get up to 2.5Mb upload speeds along with one static IP address.

Be Broadband recently signed a deal with Geeks-on-Wheels, a firm which offers IT support in the home, for customers to be able to access the latter's services for a 15 per cent reduced price.
