How we compare
The monthly figure is only one part of the cost. Setup fees and the full contract total matter too, so each row shows the complete picture.

Reading the true cost
Three numbers that decide the real price
Monthly cost
The advertised monthly price, before any one-off charges are added to it.
Setup charges
Upfront fees paid once at the start, which can change which provider is cheapest overall.
Total contract cost
Monthly payments across the full term plus setup, giving the figure to compare like for like.
Before you switch
Calculating true connection value
A faster speed may not be the right fit if the contract or usage terms do not work for you. Check the average monthly cost, setup cost and total contract cost together before deciding.
Mid-contract price changes and early exit charges can alter the total over time. Read the terms for any adjustment before you commit, and compare usage allowances against how your household actually uses the connection.
