Rain, heat and storms can knock out a UK broadband connection, but mostly on older copper lines. Here is how to tell a wet-line fault from a Wi-Fi problem, and what to do about it.
The best broadband deal is not always the cheapest headline offer. Compare the speed available at your address, total contract cost, setup charges and what the provider will charge when the introductory rate ends. A good comparison site for broadband shows you all of that before you commit, which is exactly what we built Broadband Provider to do.
See how the main UK networks differ on price, service and coverage.

Read more →Plenty of sites will compare broadband deals in the UK. Fewer will tell you how they rank them or who is paid what. We think a broadband comparison site in the UK should answer both questions on its homepage, so here are ours.
Every deal is ranked by our BBP Score. A provider paying a higher commission does not move up the list.

Not every broadband deal is as cheap as it looks on day one. Upfront costs are the one off charges you pay before or just after activation: activation or setup fees, engineer visit or installation charges, and router or delivery fees. A no upfront cost deal waives all of these, so the price you see is the price you pay from month one.
Prefer to skip the setup charge entirely? Browse broadband with no upfront cost and our roundup of affordable free installation packages.
Compare broadband deals UK-wide by starting with what is available at your address, the speed your household needs and the full price across the contract. This guide explains each part without the sales language.
Start with the services that can actually be installed at your address. Coverage can vary between neighbouring streets, so national speed claims are less useful than the estimate for your home. Compare the monthly price, setup fee, minimum term and the price charged after the offer ends.
A small household using email, browsing and one television needs less capacity than a home with several people streaming, gaming and working at the same time. Look at the guaranteed minimum as well as the advertised average, especially if reliable video calls matter.
Multiply the monthly charge across the minimum term, then add activation, delivery and installation fees. Check the terms for annual rises and note the out-of-contract price. That figure gives a fairer comparison than the introductory monthly rate.
Confirm when your current agreement ends before ordering a replacement. Keep a note of equipment that must be returned and avoid cancelling a working connection too early. Your new provider should explain the transfer date and whether an engineer visit is required.
