Broadband service in Barbados continues to be among the most expensive in the world, with the country ranking as the 24th most costly for the service out of 220 countries last year.According to the 2022 Global Broadband Price Comparison, the average package cost per month is US$106.54 (BDS$213.08), making the country the 6th most expensive in the region and the 4th most expensive in the English-speaking Caribbean.Interim Executive Director of the Barbados Consumer Empowerment Network Maureen Holder told Barbados TODAY that while the issue of broadband prices has not been a hot topic for members, it was still an area the organisation was interested in examining further.“We haven’t seen that report but it is something we are interested in. It is something we would offer some representation to our membership and certainly it is a red flag and a going concern,” said Holder.
