Broadband speeds explained
In general, the closer you are to our broadband equipment, the faster your line will be.
For Onebill Fibre, this will be the green cabinet located on your road.
For standard broadband, it will be your local telephone exchange.
What affects the speed of my broadband?
The actual speed you experience in your business (throughput speed) can depend on the following factors:
What do I do if I have a speed issue?
If you’re experiencing issues with your broadband speed, go to the help section of our website.
If you signed up to Onebill or upgraded to ADSL or Fibre after 30 September 2016, you can find the speeds quoted to you at the point of sale on your Onebill Account.
If the actual speed you receive is significantly lower than the speed we’ve estimated, please contact us on 0808 178 5200. Our dedicated team will be happy to help.
What happens once I’ve reported a speed issue?
We’ll do whatever we can to fix the problem for you.
If we can’t fix the problem and your speed falls below the minimum guaranteed download speed, you can exit your contract without it costing you a penny. No penalty fees whatsoever.
