New residential customers of Sky Broadband and Virgin Media may like to know that both ISPs have just discounted their respective gigabit broadband packages to £41 per month for a limited period of time, although Sky are offering average uploads of 90Mbps and on Virgin it’s 104Mbps.
Sky’s Gigafast 900Mbps (sponsored) broadband package, which is sold via Openreach’s national Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network – available to 14 million premises, now costs £41 per month for the first 18-months of service (£63 thereafter). Most people will get that with free installation (or setup costs just £5), an included Wi-Fi 6E router and their “Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee“.
By comparison, Virgin Media’s 1130Mbps Fibre (sponsored) package, which is available to over 17 million UK premises, now also costs £41 per month for the first 18-months of service (£78 thereafter). This similarly includes a Hub 5 wireless router, free installation and their higher quality “WiFi guarantee” (up to 3 WiFi pods if needed).
