Contract Speed

Hi. Our broadband Contract speed is 500, the actual speed shows as no more than 145. I've done the service checker and it says ok. Could you please advise. Thank you Claire

@Claire+Stones you need tomspeak to Sky as the system does appear to have you on the 150Mb/s package not the 500Mb/s you think you are paying for. Otherwise the app would pick up you are below the contractual minimum speed for the 500Mb/s product which is 300Mb/s. Full fibre has no speed loss due to line length and while speeds to the hub can vary due to contention that amount of loss is really odd. 

To speed this up for you I am escalating your post to the Sky team who support the forum who should be in touch soon to offer you a private online chat session to get this sorted. Keep an eye on the forum as if you miss the message just click the brightly coloured chat icon which will be added to the forum pages for you to use.saving a long phone call.

@JimM1 Not sure what your point is but where the speed test is recording speeds below the contractual minimum Sky set the app should offer help but doesnt appear to be doing so. That implies the customer is on the wrong package which is something the community escalation team can help,with but the community members can't.

Re: Contract Speed

Thank you all. Yes we did upgrade. I've checked the contract and we're definitely posting for 500

 

That's been really helpful.  I will call them today.
