New Ultrafast Plus delivers the UK's fastest speed guarantee on a 500Mb/s package of any major broadband provider - or money back
Sky Broadband's fastest service is ideal for those with multiple devices connected to home broadband, and for those who work from home
Sky Broadband has today announced the launch of its fastest broadband package yet, Ultrafast Plus. Bringing game changing speeds to customers, the latest service is perfect for people who rely on staying connected for home entertainment, gaming, and working from home.
The new package, which is delivered only through FTTP (Fibre to the Premises), is more than 10x faster than the UK's average fibre speed and offers the UK's fastest Speed Guarantee on a 500 Mb/s service. Sky Broadband's Speed Guarantee means you can claim a month's subscription back if your speed falls below the minimum guaranteed speed of 400 Mb/s.
For streaming the latest TV and films, faster gaming speeds or better-quality video calls to friends and family Ultrafast Plus keeps multiple devices seamlessly connected to broadband at once including smartphones, tablets, laptops, streaming devices, and games consoles.
Both new and existing customers can benefit from the fastest speeds and the most reliable connection with the Ultrafast Plus package which includes:
An average download speed of 500Mb/s, with no usage caps
A Speed Guarantee, which gives a minimum market-leading guaranteed speed of 400Mb/s or money back
The ability to stream, game and download using multiple devices at the same time around the home
Work from home with smooth sharing of large files, work documents and video calls with work colleagues
Safe and speedy usage with Sky Broadband Shield as standard, helping make the internet a safer place for your whole family at no extra cost
Aman Bhatti, Director of Propositions at Sky Broadband, said: Today's Ultrafast Plus launch reflects our commitment to providing customers with the fastest and most reliable broadband speeds possible. This is why Ultrafast Plus comes with the UK's fastest Speed Guarantee, so our customers can game, stream, download and work from home seamlessly.
Sky Broadband Ultrafast Plus is available for £45 per month on an 18-month contract. For more information visit sky.com/broadband.
Notes to editors:
Sky Broadband's Speed Guarantee ensures customers receive a minimum speed of at least 400Mb/s to the hub (80% of their headline speed for 500Mb/s)
The 10x faster claim is a comparison of the average download speed that will be provided by Sky Broadband Ultrafast Plus versus the average download speed of Fibre to the Cabinet broadband (FTTC) of 46.8Mb/s which has now become the standard Fibre service available on the market which most UK households can access (circa. 96%; Ofcom Connected Nations Report, published 17 December 2020: Connected Nations 2020: UK report (ofcom.org.uk)) .
Ultrafast Plus is available to new and existing customers in FTTP areas only
The UKs FTTP coverage is expanding every day and Sky is working hard to make sure we can offer services in as many homes in FTTP enabled areas as possible
For just £5 extra a month, Sky Broadband boost includes: Wi-Fi Guarantee in every room, the latest Sky Broadband Hub, flexible engineer visits, daily line checks and 2Gb mobile data when you experience a broadband outage - if you're with Sky Mobile.
