15m households 'do not get the promised broadband speed'

Research by Which? shows 'poor' levels of broadband service across the UK

Three quarters of British households aren't getting the promised speeds on their broadband package according to research, which found the problem affects over 15 million households.

While 90% of those polled by Which? said speed was an important factor when choosing a provider, the consumer group found just 26% of households with fixed broadband connections were getting the speeds they were paying for.
