Belgian Telecom Market

The Belgian telecom market consists of several layers. First of all you have the national regulator, then you have the network operators, followed by all the telecom providers.

1. Telecom regulator
   The BIPT is the regulator for the Belgian telecom and postal market. Amongst others, they are responsible for improving the competition on the market, to develop the internal market, to defend the interests of the users, to control the right for the social tariff, and much more.
2. Network operators
   There are several telecom operators in Belgium, responsible for the exploitation, maintenance, and development of the network.
   • Broadband operators: Proximus, Telenet (only in Flanders and the Dutch communities of Brussels), and VOO (only in Wallonia and the French communities of Brussels).
   • Mobile operators: Orange, Proximus, and Telenet / BASE.
3. Telecom providers
   There are a large amount of telecom providers in Belgium, each offering broadband, mobile, television and/or fixed line. The telecom providers are renting access to the networks of one of the broadband operators.

Why Would You Change Telecom Provider?

The telecom prices in Belgium are high in comparison to many of its surrounding countries. With the great amount of providers and offers and the big differences in the offers, it is very likely that you are not comfortable to change provider. However, if you would compare providers and change your subscription, you could potentially save up to 120€ a year for your mobile subscription, and up to 354€ a year for your broadband subscription (data in November 2023, according to researches of the BIPT).

So what are you waiting for? The only thing that you need to keep in mind when changing providers, is a possible cancellation fee when you terminate your contract too early. In any other case, we highly recommend you to start comparing and maybe even to change provider. Are you not comfortable doing this on your own, or you need help?
