Vpn throttling

Vpn throttling?  Recently if I connect to my vpn any download that initially is rated in minutes to download drops down to weeks!   Doesnt matter where in the world I connect to - same problem.  All other sites fine.

 

What can  I do?

Besides the expected hit to latency Surfshark seems fine according to fast.com

Do you have Sky Broadband Shield set to its least restricted level?
