Hyperoptic offers breathtakingly fast broadband at HALF the cost of Virgin Media and BT

However, both of these broadband firms charge significantly more for the privilege. BT usually charges £59.99 a month for the same speed, although an ongoing offer means you’ll be able to unlock the same speeds for £54.99 a month (with the first three months slashed in half to £27.49 a month).

Both BT and Hyperoptic will sign-up new customers to 24-month contracts, if you decide to opt for BT you’ll be paying £1,237.26 over the course of that two-year period, while Hyperoptic customers will be charged £840.

But what about Virgin Media? The broadband firm was one of the first companies to launch gigabit-capable connections across the UK and currently offers its speedy full-fibre internet for £62 a month with a £35 set up fee. Virgin Media only signs-up customers for an 18-month contract, so users will be able to check out the latest deals on the market a little sooner than those with BT and Hyperoptic connections at home.
