BT Broadband review

Our rating: 3.6 / 5

The UK's most popular broadband provider offers completely unlimited broadband and a wide range of packages, including ultrafast, 910Mb full fibre and home phone call bundles. In 2023, we crowned BT ‘Most Reliable UK Broadband Provider’. But is it right for you?

Community Fibre review

Our rating: 3.3 / 5

Community Fibre offers incredible ultrafast, ‘fibre-to-the-premises’ (full-fibre/FTTP) broadband. Most deals include a bundled Wi-Fi 6 router, the upload speeds are unbeatable and it offers excellent value for the monthly cost.

Direct Save Telecom review

Our rating: 3 / 5

Direct Save has a flexible rolling monthly packages, as well as shorter term contracts than most. You can sign up to its tariffs without having to pass a credit check, but are there enough other perks to make it worthwhile?

italk Broadband review

Our rating: 3.3 / 5

italk offers customers excellent customer service, broadband packages with inclusive call bundles. It’s also becoming one of the rarer providers on the broadband market to offer a fixed price promise. But is it worth coughing up a bit extra for?

Gigaclear Broadband review

Our rating: 3.4 / 5

Gigaclear is a full-fibre connection specialist offering very fast broadband with speeds of more than 800 Mbps. It’s also one of the few companies installing fibre optic cables to rural with its own network. With prices starting from a reasonable £20 per month, read the full review to find out more.

Hyperoptic Broadband review

Our rating: 3.3 / 5

Hyperoptic is a full-fibre broadband pioneer that has built its own high-speed network. As it runs off its own broadband network, there’s no need to pay for a phone line on top of an internet connection. Unfortunately, you can only sign up if you’re in one of 13 UK cities and towns, including London, Cardiff and Bristol.
