Sky broadband is so slow that we are getting 1.8mb/s download speed instead of the 30mb/ promised but they can’t and won’t do anything.


Just to confirm the speed is given as Mbps (megabits not megabytes).  Also, the speed guarantee and contract have specific recourses - have these been followed?  (Such as changing to a 'lower' product)   Speeds are measured to the hub.

 


I just cancelled just the broadband and kept the tv package and went with virgin broadband but because I was 3 months into a new contract they are charging me over £500 in early cancellation fees even though they have broken contract by not giving me the promised speeds.

If it truly is significantly slower than promised then you may have a case to be released without early termination charges.  But there's a process to follow because cancellation.

 


When we told them that we cannot pay £500 out in one go on the next bill 

Unfortunately, early termination charges do become immediately payable.

I am just another Sky customer and my views are my own even if you don't like the answers
