All you need to know about NOW Broadband
NOW Broadband is a subsidiary of Sky. They started life in 2012 as a TV streaming service, similar to Netflix. In 2016 they launched their broadband service offering the UK's first contract free broadband.
Let's take a look in more detail at what NOW Broadband has to offer.
NOW Broadband packages
NOW Broadband has three packages:
Brilliant Broadband - Standard ADSL broadband with average download speeds of 11Mb and upload speeds of 1.3Mb. With this speed you should easily be able to send emails, browse the internet and stream in SD.
Fab Fibre - Fibre broadband with average download speeds of 36Mb and upload speeds of 10Mb. This package is best suited to gamers and frequent HD streamers.
Super Fibre - The top fibre package with average download speeds of 63Mb and upload speeds of 19Mb. Perfect for larger homes with multiple devices streaming or gaming at the same time.
All broadband packages are available on a standard 12 month contract, or a rolling monthly contract. If you go for the monthly option then there is a higher set up cost, currently around £60. So you will need to factor this in when deciding which is best for your needs.

Frequently asked questions

Can you get NOW Broadband and NOW TV together?
Yes, you can combine a NOW Broadband package with a choice of NOW TV Memberships.
How fast is NOW Broadband?
NOW Broadband offers three different average download speeds. Standard broadband offers average speeds of 11Mb, and the two fibre packages offer averages of 36Mb and 63Mb.
Can I get NOW Broadband without a landline?
Unfortunately you need a landline to get NOW broadband. This is because they use the Openreach network to deliver broadband to your property, and this requires an active phone line.
Does Sky own NOW Broadband?
Yes, Sky do own NOW Broadband and NOW TV. NOW Broadband is aimed at the budget side of the market with short contract options available, unlike Skys standard 18 month contracts.
How long are NOW Broadband contracts?
NOW Broadband customers can choose from either a 12 month or 30 day contract. The price is usually the same for both contract lengths, though you can expect to pay a higher set up cost for the 30 day contract. This is still a great option for anyone who only needs the internet for a short period, or isn’t in a position to commit to a full contract.
How do I switch to Now Broadband?
Switching to Now Broadband couldn't be easier. Once you have found the deal you want, simply click the ‘View Deal’ button. This will take you to Now’s website, who will guide you through the rest of the process. Or you can click the link below to go direct to the Now website.
If your current provider is Virgin Media then you will need to let them know that you're leaving and it's up to you to coordinate the end of one contract and the start of another.
If you're choosing a broadband package and are currently with another provider that uses the Openreach network, then they will do the contacting on your behalf.
Some broadband providers may increase monthly prices in line with the retail or consumer price index each year during the length of your contract. Please refer to individual broadband provider's terms and conditions before signing up.
