[-Censored-] internet speed after I sign up...now paying more!

I’m sure I’m not the only one with this headache...but when I signed up to plus net I wasn’t really aware of just how naff the speed of the internet was (I’d previously been with plus net at a different address and had no real issues) and after speaking on the phone a couple of times with customer service, they just tell me that on their screens it’s telling them that I get a speed greater than what I actually do! I checked the websites members area and it tells me I should expect 0.5mbs! This is basically dial up speed! As I type this the down load speed is 501.40kbs and THATS THE AVERAGE! And to rub salt into the wound...my payments have gone up in price too!!! How is this fair?

Welcome to the forum.

What speed were you promised? What does this say your line is capable of? https://www.dslchecker.bt.com/.

Sorry to see that and I can understand the disappointment, have you checked on the link Baldrick1 suggested to see if fibre is available to you? - Adam
