BT launches up to 152Mb and 314Mb ultrafast broadband packages

BTBT today launches two ultrafast broadband packages, which come with a 100mbps speed guarantee.

According to BT, its ultrafast products are the first and only fibre broadband that guarantees to offer 100Mbps to users. Users can claim £20 compensation if the speed they get falls below 100Mbps.

Initially, the availability of the new service is very limited and those who are interested in the products will need to use the tailored availability checker currently only available on bt.com/ultrafast.

The new ultrafast service will offer two unlimited plans – Ultrafast Fibre 1 which offers up to 152Mbps broadband and Ultrafast Fibre 2 which offers up to 314Mbps.

Ultrafast Fibre 1 is priced at £54.99 a month including line rental while Ultrafast Fibre 2 will cost £59.99 a month (line rental inclusive).

Both the plans come with 18 month contract.

Users will be able to get 10x faster speeds than the UK’s average regular (ADSL) broadband download speed.

BT Engineer will install the new service which also comes with the UK or Ireland based customer support.

Ultrafast Fibre 1 and Ultrafast Fibre 1 packages also include free UK weekend calls, new Smart Hub wireless router, 1,000GB of cloud storage, free BT call protect, BT virus protect and BT parental controls.

All BT broadband customers get free access to 5.5 million wi-fi hotspots across the UK.
