| Comment | Speed/Infrastructure wise you've got 3 choices:
Virgin, Hyperoptic and BT Openreach all maintain their own networks, with most providers running off the Openreach network.
Hyperoptic's is the newest, fastest network, but lacks coverage. Their vans are all over the West end plugging new areas in weekly, they've not quite got full coverage of Finnieston yet so check your postcode. And maybe check it again in a month or two.
Virgin, afaik, have full coverage of Glasgow with their fibre network. I don't believe they're as fast as Hyperoptic yet but they're faster than the other offerings. There's been murmerings that they might open their infrastructure up to other ISPs soon.
BT Openreach is what everyone else runs off of. It's the slowest, but you have the most options for individual ISPs, it's where you'll find the cheapest prices and your best bet is to use a comparison site.
If you're willing to compromise on price for a bit better customer service I've heard good things about PlusNet, and nothing but horror stories from Talk Talk. |
