Why is Superfast Broadband still at £46 a month...?
I am only asking a question, I see things as they are so its innocent.
I get £3 of it so pay £43 for broadband that only 70M/s down and 1.4 M/s up, in the Netherlands they have 1G/s and 1Gb/s and is only about 40euros...?
Should it be like £20 to £25 now...?
Why are we still so behind in are tech, Superfast now is more like dial-up was, it so slow it takes about a hour to upload 1GB, plus it interferes with Sky Steam when I upload, and it has cuts off about 12am a few times, I upload files to Microsoft One Drive so sync my files on my PC so some files are big.
And I think broadband should be cheaper if you use Sky Steam becuase it need broadbacd to work so like buying Sky Q without a dish and you wouldn't... 🙂
I am not a Sky Engineer but at one time wanted to be one or a BT Engineer... 🙂
I like working things out like its a puzzle... 🙂
I was a PC Engineer and fix peoples PCs by going to there house, Windows XP was known to slow down PCs over time and clog up the PCs RAM and its start-up and had to reinstall it for the customer, the only way you could fix WinXP.

Maintaining the legacy copper network is really expensive, particularly as the UK has the longest established in the world. Once the commercial phase of the national FTTP rollout is completed (covering 85% of addresses by December 2026) the situation in most places will be significantly better.
