    I wonder if that's what's coming to my area - with the road being dug up for fibre installation.

    Vodafone Fibre Unlimited £17.51 per month (It was supposed to have been £21.50, but they have further discounted it - no idea why?).

    55Mbps / Unlimited

    We have on average 24 devices connected and stream UHD every day and no buffering...would recommend.

    I think we’re paying BT (currently) £27 a month for 72Mb unlimited broadband and phone, with free calls. The previous contract was £35, but when it ran out I looked to switch to Sky. BT retention came back with a better offer.
    Can’t get virgin where we live.

    Pre-lockdown we averaged about 600-800GB download a month but I imagine it's a lot higher now. We're with Virgin. I don't rate them but have been too lazy to switch.

    Gig1 Fibre Broadband – the UK’s fastest broadband | Virgin Media

    1Gbps

    They sent me an email saying I'm one for the biggest users of bandwidth they have, congratulating me. I max it out 24/7.

    Is the Hub 4 as crap as the Hub 3?

    I'm with Sky, £28 for 80Mbps, unlimited downloads. No idea how much I've used, but usually stream Netflix UHD films.

    If it's a choice between PlusNet and BT I'd go for PlusNet - even though they're owned by BT - because:-

    a) their call centre(s) is/are in this country
    b) they don't work from a script so you don't have to go through the "yes, I've tried turning it off and on again" nonsense

    And you could always use me as a referrer so I get a 50p/month discount
