Broadband London Deals

Broadband in London is in a very healthy state indeed with a tremendous amount of choice for consumers in terms of providers, packages and deals. And people living in London can enjoy some of the fastest download speeds that can be found anywhere in the country.

Best broadband providers in London

Most UK broadband providers operate in London including BE, BT, Eclipse O2, Orange, Plusnet, Sky and Virgin Media. All this competition is fantastic for consumers as it keeps prices competitive and encourages them to roll out faster packages.

London broadband is extensive thanks to the excellent communications infrastructure in the capital, so these providers are able to offer their best services to customers in the City both in terms of broadband over the BT phone network and fibre optic broadband.

There are a wide range of options for broadband in London and something for everyone from standalone broadband packages to broadband, TV and phone bundles. Download speeds and upload speeds are generally very good but it's best to check your area using our postcode availability checker at the top of this page.

BT broadband in London

BT owns and operates the most extensive phone network in London and as such the availability of BT broadband in London is very high. In recent years BT has been rolling out its own fibre optic broadband network in London. The packages it offers across this fibre broadband network are referred to as BT Infinity. BT Infinity is already available in many areas of London and many more households will become connected to the BT Infinity London network in the coming months and years.

To find out which BT broadband packages are available in your part of London or if the BT Infinity fibre optic network has reached your home yet, you can use our free London broadband availability checker at the top of this page.

Sky broadband also benefits from a high level of availability in London. In areas that are part of the London Sky broadband network you'll be able to choose from two different up to 20Mb broadband packages; Sky Broadband Everyday Lite which has a monthly usage allowance of 2GB and Sky Broadband Unlimited which is one of the few truly unlimited broadband packages in London.

In other areas of London, i.e. those that are outside of the Sky broadband network, you may still be able to subscribe to Sky’s more basic home broadband package. This package is called Sky Broadband Connect and it has a top download speed of 8Mb and a pretty generous 40GB monthly download allowance.

As with the BT Infinity fibre optic network the rollout of Virgin Media’s London cable network is an ongoing process with thousands of new homes due to become cable-ready in the coming months and years.

Fibre optic broadband rollout in London

Fibre optic broadband roll out is well underway in London with the two main cable broadband providers, BT and Virgin Media, making inroads into new areas of the city each month. Currently Virgin Media can offer up to 10Mbps to most homes of London while the roll out of their fastest ever package, Virgin Media 120Mb broadband is continuing apace.

Fibre optic broadband from BT is also widely available in London and, as the BT Infinity rollout continues over the coming months and years, the whole city is sure to become connected before too long. BT Infinity has a top speed of 100Mbps which, while not being as fast as Virgin’s two top broadband packages, is still incredibly fast indeed.

Cheapest broadband in London

Many of the UK’s cheapest broadband deals and bundles are widely available in London, with prices starting at just per month. These packages tend to have quite a low monthly download allowance and may not come with as many freebies or extras as other, more expensive broadband packages.

When comparing London's cheapest broadband packages make sure that the download allowance will be enough to let you do everything you want to do online and that the download speed will be sufficient to move the files you need to in a reasonable amount of time.

Best broadband in London

Considering the best broadband deals in London can be subjective, just as when considering the cheapest broadband in London. It could be argued that fibre optic broadband is the best of London’s broadband types but there is the issue of availability. Consider what is the best broadband for you, and for your specific needs.

If you can get a good deal on access to the London fibre optic network then you probably should, but standard broadband over the London phone network still has a lot to offer. Just as with the cheapest broadband consider what you’ll be using your new broadband connection for and what kind of demands you’ll be placing on it. Once you’ve done that you’ll be in a better position to find the best London broadband for you.

There are many different broadband packages offered in London but availability can vary across the city. The best way to find the right broadband package is to use our postcode checker at the top of this page. Once you've entered your postcode, we'll show you a list of all the broadband packages and deals that are available in your area of London.
