Contract under magnifying glass

12th Apr 2023 (25 Comments)

We’ve lost count now of how many times ISPreview has had to say this over the years, but there are still far too many broadband ISPs in the UK – particularly larger players – that fail to clearly inform their customers of how much their package will cost post-contract. As a result, consumers often feel misled when it comes time to re-contract.

Sky Mobile, which is an O2 (VMO2) powered mobile operator (MVNO), is adding cellular laptops to its range of available devices from just £11 a month (includes mobile broadband plan). Customers who take one of these will benefit from Sky’s data rollover feature (i.e. any unused data each month gets rolled into a Piggybank which can be used later – either for a data boost, to share with other SIMs on their plan or to purchase accessories).

OneWeb First Generation Satellite in Orbit

11th Apr 2023 (7 Comments)

Earlier today the Government revealed (here) that they’d commit £8m to help deliver “high-speed broadband” (they didn’t clearly define this) via Satellite ISP solutions for up to 35,000 of the UK’s “most remote properties” (i.e. those unable to get gigabit-capable connections). We now know that this will involve OneWeb’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) network via partners BT and Clarus.

The excitement is palpable. You’ve just been told that a UK network operator has deployed a Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband ISP network down your road and made it live, only to then suffer the bitter pill of disappointment when you discover that your house is one of the few that can’t get it. But why? We take a look.

The UK government (DSIT) has today announced that, as part of the new Wireless Infrastructure Strategy (WIS), they have set out an ambition to “blanket the country with the fastest, most reliable wireless coverage available” – with the plan being for “all populated areas to be covered by ‘standalone’ 5G (5G-plus) by 2030“. The update also includes support for satellite broadband in rural areas and more trials of flexi permits.

Most people tend to assume that the problem of slow broadband ISP connectivity is one that predominantly affects rural areas, which is matched by a presumption that commercial operators (Openreach, Virgin Media etc.) will quickly blanket big UK cities and towns with the fastest speeds. But such assumptions are not always correct.

The investor behind Upp’s £1bn project to deploy a new Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband ISP network across 1 million premises in the East of England by 2025 (here), LetterOne, has launched a legal challenge against the UK Government’s order for L1 to sell its entire stake in Upp in order to “prevent, remedy, or mitigate the risk to national security” (here).
