No, you don’t have to pay anything for the upgrade – it’s on us and there’s no change to your monthly price.

Is there anything I need to do to get the fibre speed upgrade?

No, you don’t need to do a thing. If you’re eligible for a fibre speed upgrade, we will automatically upgrade your download and upload speeds.

Why an I not getting the speeds you say I should be getting?

The speed you experience at any given time depends on several factors. These can include your LAN bandwidth, congestion, and equipment type, the geographical spread of your WAN, and any network protocols or Quality of Service settings or attributes.
