Abstract: | Although the broadband market has considerably matured, follow-up research on the continued adoption of broadband is yet to
be conducted. The aim of this research was therefore to investigate empirically the influence of service quality and secondary
influence on consumers’ behavioural intention to change from their existing internet service provider (ISP) to an alternative
service provider. The investigation focuses upon broadband household consumers within the UK. The study was conducted using
a postal survey; a self-administered questionnaire was sent to 1600 households and a total of 358 completed replies were obtained.
The results suggest that both service quality and secondary influence were significantly correlated to consumers’ behavioural
intentions to change ISP. The implications of these findings are presented, followed by a discussion of the limitations of
this research and future research directions. |
