Most of the awards were decided based on a survey of 11,189 UK consumers (conducted between 21st December 2018 and 5th January 2019), while several other categories were chosen by a panel of &#8220;<em>expert judges<\/em>&#8221; (journalists from the tech sector) and the &#8216;Fastest Mobile Network&#8217; award was based on analysis derived from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/opensignal\" target=\"_blank\">OpenSignal<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that we note that the &#8216;<em>Most Popular Broadband Provider<\/em>&#8216; and &#8216;<em>Most Popular Mobile Network<\/em>&#8216; awards were calculated using both the consumer panel survey and uSwitch sales, although it&#8217;s unclear how much statistical significance was assigned to data from the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps unsurprisingly for a big commercial comparison site, smaller ISPs were alas nowhere to be seen in the award selection.
