I switched to TalkTalk 65 from TalkTalk 35 twenty days ago. TalkTalk told me the guaranteed minimum speed of 45.3Mbps when I signed up. But I am getting just 29.6Mbps download /7.4Mbps upload to my device.
Why my speeds are lower than the estimated speeds and the guaranteed minimum speed? Even after contacting them to resolve the issue, they did nothing so far.
Speeds are just dropping and I could not stream videos in HD and connections become worse when I connect additional devices.
I am going to give a week time to improve the speeds or I will be quitting their service and switching to Plusnet or Vodafone which offer similar kind of discounted deals.
It may be worth checking the length of copper cable that connects the cabinet and premises because over-lengthy cabling also adversely affects the speeds.
If you don’t get the minimum guaranteed speed and the estimated speed levels, it’s also better to check the quality of your line and get the problem fixed instead of changing the provider.
