Pinging bbc.co.uk 5 times I see varations from 17ms to 70ms and playing CSGO my ping also fluctuates by about 30ms.
Any ideas?

I've just tested your line and it's detecting a potential issue in the local network, can you run through the troubleshooter here so we can do some more testing? https://faults.plus.net

By a potential issue in the local network what do you mean?

I get a lot of errors on the line no matter what device I use, what cables I use or even a new faceplate. An engineer came out last year when I complained at BT for a similar issue and couldn't find anything wrong...

Have you tried doing the Quiet Line Test? Call 17070 option 2 and check for any noise on the line. It should be completely silent.

I've checked the stats on my HG612 and for 9 days uptime I have very low error count, not sure those are FEC errors though, think it was CRC.

Engineer came out and said the line was perfect.
A friend on sky fibre gets consistent low 20ms pings on CSGO whereas mine can sometimes be 30ms higher.
I tried changing the gateway I was connected to and it helped for a bit before my pings climbed back to the usual level again...

Have you made sure there's nothing running in the background when your carrying out a speedtest?

Nothing was uploading when I ran that pingtest yesterday, nothing that I'm aware of anyway.
Still getting the same results today.
