Prices from our deal data, 28 October 2026.

Why it varies

More choice, lower prices.

Our first look shows towns where more homes can get ultrafast (300 Mb+) tend to be a little cheaper, but the link is loose. Which networks reach a town seems to matter more than how fast its fastest lines are.

Cheaper

More than one network in town

Where an alternative full fibre network competes with Openreach, the price of decent broadband is often lower.

More expensive

Rural and one network only

Where the only 100 Mb option comes from one network, there is less to push the price down.

Questions

Town prices, plainly.

Why might my street be different from my town?

Deals vary from address to address, even on one street. The town figure is a starting point. The check uses your exact address.

Why 100 Mb?

It covers the busiest hour in most homes with room to spare. Our speed tool works out what yours needs.

How often does this change?

Every day. We refresh the deals for every area daily, so a new offer in your town shows up within a day.

Does the price include the April rise?

Yes, where the rise is written into the contract. Each price is the deal’s whole contract cost, rises included, divided by its months. Sky and NOW don’t set a rise in their contracts. They announce price changes each year instead (Sky’s came in April this year, NOW’s in July) and let you leave without a fee when they do, so their prices here don’t include a future rise.
