You can also explore all about the broadband in Portugal and other providers (not only MEO).

MEO Cheapest Bundles

If you are looking for the cheapest MEO packages, these are some of our suggestions.

These are some of the cheap MEO packages. As a rule, these packages have no membership offers and the conditions are less tempting.

For example, if you choose one of these cheap MEO bundles with TV you will not have the MEO Box that allows you to access the MEO Video Club or the automatic recordings, among other features.

Regarding cheap MEO bundles with broadband, the internet speed tends to be lower when compared to other packages and, in some cases, may have an associated traffic limitation (for example a 500Gb cap).

But when choosing the cheapest MEO package it is also important to consider the coverage available on site.

MEO is the operator that provides coverage through 3 different types of technology: Fiber, ADSL and Satellite. Before choosing a MEO package you are advised to do a coverage test to find out what type of MEO coverage is available at your address.

MEO packages with mobile (M4)

Who are MEO bundles with mobile for? MEO packages with mobile (also known as M4) are indicated for all customers who want to include the mobile in their bundle and pay everything in the same monthly invoice.

When opting for a bundles with MEO mobile included you have the advantage of having all the services aggregated in the same invoice. Usually, it pays to associate the mobile to the bundle, as it is cheaper than having an isolated MEO rate.

When choosing a MEO M4 package you must pay attention to the broadband conditions (speed and traffic) and TV (box, number of channels, etc.), but also to the cap associated with MEO mobile.

MEO packages with unlimited mobile If you use your mobile constantly and do not want to be concerned about consumptions, or the amount to be paid at the end of the month, we advise you to choose an M4 package with unlimited mobile. This way, you don't have to worry about the minutes, SMS or MEO mobile data spent.

In addition, customers with M4 packages can also join the MEO loyalty program and accumulate points (also known as "MEOS") through invoice payments. You can later exchange these points for exclusive equipment.

MEO Packages with Broadband, TV, landline (M3)

Did you know that the Broadband, TV and landline packages continue to be the top choice of the Portuguese? There are many telecommunications packages available on the market but the MEO Broadband, TV and landline Bundles remain the main choice to the Portuguese. Get to know these bundles below.

The cheaper MEO Broadband, TV and landline package is one of the best options for those who are more concerned with price. But, as you can see, the broadband speed in this package may be below the expected performance (only 30Mbps).

The remaining MEO TV, broadband and landline bundles already have a better broadband speed and already include TV with a Box.

For those looking for a truly fast internet experience to play online or to watch streaming without any interruptions, the MEO Broadband, TV and landline package with 1Gbps download speed is the most suitable.

Other MEO Bundles (M2 & M1)

If you are looking for a MEO bundle with only broadband or TV, or with broadband and landline, find out about the MEO M1 and M2 package offers.

These are some of the M2 packages available from MEO in Portugal. According to your needs, you can choose a package with TV and Landline, or a package with broadband and landline.

On the other hand, if you want to subscribe to a MEO package with TV or broadband only, see our best suggestions below:

This last broadband bundle, MEO M1 broadband special Gaming, is indicated precisely for those looking for a high speed internet, without flaws and interference and with low latency (perfect for playing online).

However, there is one other M1 MEO package only with broadband at a more affordable price, in case you want to invest less in an internet-only package:

MEO Packages for Second Homes

MEO Second Home packages are for a very specific type of consumer, since it implies that the customer already has a MEO package with TV in their main address.

The MEO Second House bundle must be installed in an address different from the first one and presupposes a 24-month customer retention.

Before joining a MEO Second House package you should always do a coverage test, as the installation of the Second House package depends on the technical feasibility in the indicated location.

MEO Packages without customer retention

Do you want to be "stuck" to a period of retention? Discover MEO's packages without retention, ideal for those who want to avoid telecommunications contracts with long periods of customer retention.

This is one of the retention-free packages with basic services: TV, MEO broadband and landline. It is also one of the cheapest service packages from the operator.

When we compare the price of this MEO bundle with no retention and the price of a package with the same conditions, but with 24 month retention, we can see that you will pay around 10€ more each month.

You can also have your mobile associated with a MEO package Without Retention (MEO M4 package). In this case, the amount to be paid monthly is higher.

MEO packages usually have a 24-month retention period associated with them. This retention period usually entitles you to lower monthly fees, membership offers and installation and activation offers (among other benefits).

However, when we remove the MEO retention period associated with the packages, we are left with a more expensive package and where the customer has to pay the installation and activation costs.

Mobile broadband MEO

How can I use MEO’s mobile broadband? MEO Mobile Broadband can be used regularly on your PC or tablet, through a mobile router or a wi-fi USB. There are prepaid and contract packages available.

MEO mobile broadband packages work the same way as MEO’s mobile packages, but with this service you can only access the internet (minutes and SMS are excluded).

If you make daily and regular use of the internet, then we recommend MEO's contract mobile broadband packages. What is the advantage over prepaid MEO bundles? The monthly fee is lower and you do not have to make payments regularly.

MEO Prepaid Mobile Internet

Also known as MEO Enjoy Plans, these are the MEO Prepaid mobile internet plans available. It is recommended for consumers who make sporadic use of the internet.

Unlike contract packages, prepaid MEO mobile internet offers are counted by days of use and the data is unlimited

This means that, with one of the MEO Enjoy plans, you can use the MEO mobile internet you want (without worrying about consumption) but for a limited time: 15, 20 or 30 days.

With these bundles you should pay attention to the regular payment of the MEO mobile internet card. To keep the card active, you must make a minimum payment of 15€, which corresponds to 15 days of expiry date.

MEO Contract Mobile Broadband

These MEO mobile broadband packages by contract are only available for existing MEO customers.

With these packages shown above, you will not be charged for more than the indicated price, even though you use more data than the included.

The MEO mobile broadband unlimited package allows you to use all kinds of services (from TV through the MEO Go Multi, to social media, amongst others) without having to worry about consumption.

If you do not have a MEO M3 or M4 package already, you will only be able to access these two services shown below:

MEO Contract Mobile Broadband (for other clients)

Operator	Bundle	Price (€/month)
MEO	MEO Mobile Broadband (15GB)	15€/month
MEO	MEO Mobile Broadband (30GB)	20€/month

MEO Router and USB for mobile broadband

In MEO’s online store you can find only three MEO mobile routers and one USB available. See the list of MEO USB and routers available.

The main difference between the MEO mobile broadband Router and the USB is that the USB can only be used on one PC.

On the other hand, the MEO mobile router allows several devices to be connected to the same Wi-fi network at the same time. At a time where there are several devices connected to the internet in a single home, this seems to be the best solution.

How can I join MEO?

To join MEO, the first thing you have to check is weather you have MEO's coverage in your house, and the type of coverage you have. With the MEO coverage test you will be able to check so.

Once you know what type of MEO coverage is available at your address, you can choose the package/ service you want to hire from MEO.

The MEO coverage test is extremely important, especially when it comes to subscribing to fixed services such as television, MEO broadband and landline.

In these cases, the characteristics of this technology (Fiber, ADSL or Satellite) will dictate the service provided. When joining MEO, be aware that the service requested may not be feasible.

• Reasons why MEO can refuse to install the service:
• No MEO coverage on site
• Lack of access to support the service between the customer's premises and MEO's plant
• When the support infrastructure does not allow the provision of the service, namely due to technical characteristics, interference or electromagnetic noise in the local access component
• When the customer does not authorize any intervention on the customer's networks that is necessary or appropriate for the provision of the service

In cases where the application to subscribe MEO services is not technically feasible, MEO may refuse to activate the services because it is not possible to provide the service on a regular and continuous basis.

If it is proved that there is MEO coverage and that all the conditions necessary are met, installation and activation will take place within a maximum period of 30 working days from the date of affiliation.
