Compare Broadband Providers Before Switching

Your contract is up and every provider claims the fastest speeds. This sorts the real picture: what speed your address can actually get, the contract terms worth checking, and where the cheap headline price hides a hike later. Built for anyone at the end of a deal who wants to switch on evidence, not adverts.

2. Contract terms: minimum period, price rises built into the contract, exit fee structure
3. True total cost: installation fees, router cost, and any mid-contract price hike clauses
4. Service quality: how to check real-world reliability data and complaints ratings
5. Switching process: what Openreach-based switching actually involves and how to avoid a gap in service
