What’s the fastest internet provider in the UK?
Choose.co.uk reckons that Virgin Media provides the fastest internet in the UK.
USwitch also rates Virgin as the overall fastest provider in its Broadband and Mobile Awards.
However, it’s worth bearing in mind that just because it’s the overall fastest provider, it doesn’t mean it’ll be the best provider for you.
Some providers such as Hyperoptic are only available in limited areas in the UK, but can provide seriously quick speeds; one of their packages offers 1GB speeds, which is enough to download an entire HD film in less than 10 seconds.
We recommend checking a price comparison site to make sure you get the fastest internet available in your area.
