Changing ISP

Hi all. i am paying £32.50 for Superfast Broadband with SKY, i rarely get 50 mbps, poor services often below 40 mbps.

Would it be possible to change to another ISP, Vodafone are offering me the same for £22 a month.

Re: Changing ISP

You would have to ask Vodafone, at that price you're out of contract with Sky so Vodafone would manage the switch over. If you're looking for a better deal from Sky, this is a customer forum, Sky won't be contacting you on here offering a deal. You would need to phone Sky themselves.

With FTTC, speed delivered to a particular address is almost entirely a factor of the copper phone line distance to the fibre cabinet.  No ISP can break the laws of physics.
