  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nThere may not be a better time to upgrade your broadband plan.\n\nThat's because Sky just slashed its broadband prices to a record low — including its **Full-Fibre 150 for £24/month**,**Full-Fibre 500 for £28/month**, and**Full-Fibre 900 for £33/month. **\n\n****If you subscribe to Full-Fibre 150 at this record-low price tag, you'll only be paying roughly**80p per day**. For context, Full-Fibre 500 is around 2x faster than the average UK household connection — perfect for fast streaming.\n\nThese deals arrive ahead of multiple annual contract price hikes in the UK next month. Major providers like **BT****, EE, and****Plusnet**are changing their price rise process — increasing your bill by £4/month. **Virgin Media will also face a similar annual cost increase**. Sky **isn't immune to these price hikes** , but new subscribers miss out for now.\n\nIf you're faced with the prospect of paying _more_ for the same broadband speed and service, switching to a new deal is a sure-fire way to save money — or unlock faster speeds for the same amount. If you're not _quite_ at the end of your current deal and will be faced with an early exit fee, Sky will pay you up to £200 to take care of any leaving fees.\n\nThis is paid to you in the form of a credit, which you can put towards your future monthly bills. Broadband providers also regularly save their best deals for new subscribers, with loyalty rarely rewarded.\n\nEven if you're happy with the level of service from the current provider, it could _still_ be worth switching to cut monthly bills or unlock faster speeds for the same cost.\n\nYou'll need to act quickly, though, as these deals are only around for a **limited time**.\n\n### Switch to Sky's Full-Fibre 150 at its \"lowest ever price\"\n\n\n\n\nIf you want to enjoy the biggest savings on your monthly broadband bills, look no further than Sky Broadband's Full-Fibre 150 package. That's quite a bit slower than the 285Mbps average household broadband speed recorded nationwide by Ofcom, but given that you only need 5Mbps to stream your favourite Netflix show in 1080p HD... it should be plenty for quieter homes. Available in around 60% of UK homes, this speedy Sky package includes a minimum download speed guarantee\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nIf you have a smaller household and a smaller number of devices that need to connect to Wi-Fi, then a **Full-Fibre 150 broadband package** from Sky may be the best option.\n\nIt's an ideal choice if you have a household with no more than four people, are active online but do not require the massive bandwidth needed for constant, simultaneous 4K streaming or heavy, competitive gaming.\n\nIt can also support up to 10–12 devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, security cameras) simultaneously for general use.\n\n### Switch to Sky's Full-Fibre 500 at its \"lowest ever price\"\n\n\n\n\nNeed a bit more speed than what a Full Fibre 145 broadband package can supply? Sky has just dropped the price of its Full Fibre 500 to its lowest ever — the same price as its Full Fibre 300 offer. These high-performance speeds are great for busier homes and can handle multiple simultaneous 4K streams, lag-free gaming, fast 100GB+ file downloads, and robust remote working\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nFull Fibre 500 is available in 60% of UK homes. Sky relies on BT-owned Openreach to connect customers to its broadband. You'll need to live in an area that's been upgraded to the latest fibre infrastructure.\n\nOfcom recorded the average home broadband speed in the UK was 223Mbps last year, which means Sky's Full Fibre 500 bundle is **2x faster than the average household connection**.\n\nOpenreach is currently ploughing ahead with an ambitious goal **to upgrade 25 million premises to full-fibre broadband by December 2026**. Earlier last year, the **BT-owned firm revealed 17 million homes had been successfully upgraded** to the speediest full-fibre internet connection. These next-generation connections offer download speeds up to 1,600Mbps.\n\n  * **Bundle TV and broadband for only £35 per month**\n\n\n\nHowever, if you need even faster speeds in your house, a full-fibre 900 package may be a better fit.\n\nThese eye-watering download speeds are particularly well-suited for large, device-heavy households, competitive gaming, content creation, and seamless 4K/8K streaming for dozens of devices per month.\n\n### Switch to Sky's Full-Fibre 900 at its \"lowest ever price\"\n\n\n\n\nIf full-fibre 500 speeds still aren't enough for your busy household, Sky has also marked down its full-fibre 900 down to its lowest ever price. These super-fast download speeds are particularly well-suited for large, device-heavy households, competitive gaming, content creation, and seamless 4K/8K streaming for dozens of devices per month\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nIf you're unsure about what broadband speed you need in your home, we've put together the average download speeds for an hour-long television show episode in Standard Definition (SD), roughly 450MB in size.\n\n  * 73Mbps, the average broadband speed in the UK: **54 seconds**\n  * 150Mbps, the lowest speed available with most full-fibre packages: **24 seconds**\n  * 500Mbps, widely available from all full-fibre providers: **7 seconds**\n  * 900Mbps, widely available from all full-fibre providers: **4-5 seconds**\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
