Internet and/or television

Some landlords arrange internet for you. If you found an accommodation through Universiteit Leiden SCIS Housing, the ad mentioned whether you pay for an internet connection through the service costs. If you do not remember, you can look this up in the contract. Do you have to arrange internet and/or television yourself? Then you can conclude a contract directly with the provider or make use of comparison websites (consumentenbond or Pricewise) to find a suitable provider. Major internet and TV providers in the Netherlands are KPN, Ziggo en T-mobile. Before signing a contract it is useful to check whether your address has a fibre optic connection. Glass fibre (Fiber to the Home) is an extra fast connection for which you need a special connection in your meter box. Fortunately, many addresses have already been connected to the fibre optic network.
