How to Choose a Bundle

Many people today are beginning to bundle their television, telephone and Internet services because bundling offers a convenient and easy way to save both money and time each. Companies are willing to give you a deal to lock in more of your business, and you’ll have just one low bill each month to keep track of. While bundling offers lots of benefits, knowing how to compare the bundle providers is important to making sure you get the best deal.

Luckily, WhiteFence is here to help you make your decision with an easy to follow process when comparing bundle providers to make sure you make the right choice.

  • Step 1 - Figure out which services you need. It may seem obvious, but the first thing you need to work out is what services you want to order. Which services are you in the market for? Phone? Internet? Television? All three? Companies today offer both double packs and triple packs, so chances are you can get just what you need.
  • Step 2 - Decide what level of service you need. Before you start searching, work out exactly what you need from each service:
    • For television, figure out which channels you want, whether you want HD, DVR or On Demand service and how many TVs you need service for.
    • For home phone, work out what calling features you need, whether you need long distance and if you need unlimited minutes.
    • For Internet, decide what download and upload speeds you need, along with any additional services like e-mail or a security suite.
  • Step 3 - Work out who offers those services in your area. Head to the bundle section on WhiteFence.com and enter your address to see which providers offer bundled services in your area and which specific packages are available.
  • Step 4 - Compare the results. First, compare the results to the requirements you set in steps 1 and 2 to whittle down the list. Then, use WhiteFence’s compare feature to rank what’s available on the following criteria:
    • Price. The first thing to look at is the overall cost of the bundle. Keep in mind that the cost may not tell the whole story.
    • Fees. Always read the fine print in the details section to see if there are any additional fees that may be above the monthly contracted amount. These could include installation fees, service fees, etc.
    • Contracts. Some providers require that you sign a contract with them. Having a contract is not necessarily a bad thing because it could mean that you lock in a low rate for the duration. It is important to note how long the contract is for, if there is a fee for breaking it, or if there are any other stipulations for which you should be aware. Knowing these things is important because you never know what could arise. You could end up hating the service, or you may find yourself moving before your contract is up. Always know the details of the contract you are signing.
    • Promotions. Many times, providers offer special savings, gift cards or other promotions to sweeten the deal to get your business. Keep in mind, WhiteFence brings you exclusive deals you won’t find elsewhere.
    • Reputation. A company’s reputation is always a good thing to take into consideration. Do some research online and ask around and see how your friends and family feel about the services being provided by a particular company. If they have a good reputation, you can feel reasonably safe assuming that you will also be happy with their service. If the reports you get back are overwhelmingly negative, you may want to consider going with another company for your bundled service, or only sign up for a short time to try them out.
  • Step 5 - Choose and order. Once you’ve found the package that meets your needs at the best price, it’s time to order. You can place your order right on the WhiteFence site or call one of our helpful customer service agents if you prefer.

It is essential to compare bundles in order to get the best deal. Rather than going to multiple sites to gather bundled service information, head to the bundle section on WhiteFence.com and check all of the nation’s top providers at once. WhiteFence provides the detailed information you need in order to find the best deal on the bundle that’s right for you.
