Require all broadband providers to offer 12-month contracts for renters
Require all broadband providers to offer 12-month contract options for renters. Many tenants move yearly but may face unfair 18–24-month broadband terms, paying exit fees or losing service. Align broadband contracts with common tenancy lengths could ensure fairness, flexibility and consumer choice.
