We may earn a commission from our broadband comparison partner when you sign up, at no extra cost to you. It never affects how we rank deals. How we make money
Best Value is our default order. For each deal we work out the total you are due to pay over the contract: the monthly price for every month of the minimum term, plus any price rise already announced for that contract from the date it starts, plus any setup fee and any postage. We divide that total by the number of months to get an effective monthly cost, and list the lowest first. Rolling monthly deals have no fixed end, so we compare them over 12 months. A fixed pound rise dated on 1 April, on a contract of 24 months or longer, is counted again each later April in that term, unless that step is an introductory discount ending. When the provider did not send that later rise, the card says it is estimated. If two deals come out the same, the faster download speed comes first, then the shorter contract.
Totals include known price rises. Some providers don't publish theirs, so check the deal's price rise note.
5G and 4G home broadband deals come after all wired deals in Best Value, whatever their price, because their speed depends on the mobile signal where you live. Within each group, the order above applies.
Rewards such as gift cards or bill credit are not counted in this order. Where a deal has one, we show it separately on the deal, so check the provider's terms for how to claim it.
You can also sort by Cheapest (lowest monthly price), Fastest or Shortest contract. Commission never affects the order.
Every deal shows the same facts in the same place: download and upload speed, connection type (full fibre, part fibre or cable), monthly price, upfront cost, contract length and total contract cost. If a figure is missing from the data we receive, we leave it out rather than guess.
Since 17 January 2025, a provider must tell you about any price rise during a new contract in pounds and pence before you sign. We include announced rises in the total cost, so a deal that looks cheap in month one can rank lower if it rises later.
Enter your postcode, then compare deals by total contract cost as well as the monthly price. Check the speed you need, the contract length and whether a price rise is due during the contract. Best Value already ranks deals by cost over the whole contract.
Broadband availability changes from street to street. Some networks only reach certain areas, so the deals you can order depend on your address. Your postcode lets us show deals available near you.
Full fibre (FTTP) runs fibre all the way to your home. Part fibre (FTTC) runs fibre to a street cabinet and copper from there to your home. Full fibre usually offers higher and more consistent speeds. Cable broadband runs on a separate network. Our guide to connection types explains more.
It depends on how many people and devices use the connection at once, and what for. Streaming in 4K, gaming and large uploads need more than browsing and email. Our speed guide gives a simple way to work it out.
It might. Many providers add a fixed rise each year. For contracts taken out since 17 January 2025, the rise must be shown in pounds and pence before you sign. Where a rise has been announced, we show it on the deal and include it in the total cost.
In most cases you only need to contact the new provider. Under Ofcom's One Touch Switch process, they arrange the switch and your old provider ends your service. Check whether your current contract has an early exit fee first.
Not always. Full fibre and cable broadband do not need a traditional phone line, and many deals do not include calls. The UK's analogue landline network is due to close on 31 January 2027, after which home phone calls run over broadband.
Many providers offer social tariffs for people on Universal Credit and some other benefits. They may not appear in our results, so ask providers directly. Our social tariffs guide explains who qualifies and how to apply.
