Millions of UK households have been urged to check if they can get full fibre without paying a penny more.

Go.Compare has said around 11 million homes across the UK could get access to the high internet speeds but are unaware of the broadband deals currently on offer.

Many of which could be entitled to a free upgrade, as the government continues to push for access to full fibre nationwide by 2030.

The Labour government has set a goal to bring 85% of the nation into the fastest internet speed by this year.

Matt Sanders from Go.Compare said: “Note down the key details of your current broadband deal, such as the connection type, speeds you’ve been promised and what you’re paying.”

To check your eligibility for full fibre broadband, comparison sites such as MoneySuperMarket detail the best deals currently on offer.

All you need to do is punch in your postcode and it will show which internet providers have coverage in your area.

If your current provider is listed, but you don’t have full fibre, then you may be due an upgrade.

Go.Compare and Which? offer broadband speed check tools to compare how fast your internet is and what is currently available on the market.

It comes as Broadband Genie has named the internet providers that are best for online gaming, working from home, and streaming in its annual awards.

The annual survey named Plusnet as the “Best Broadband Provider” of the year based off a OnePoll survey of 3,997 broadband bill payers, as well as an analysis of 291,467 broadband speed tests that were run over a 12-month period.

Broadband Genie expert Alex Tofts said: “Customer service is an area which can make or break a positive experience with your internet provider.

“Get it right, and customers feel valued and looked after. Get it wrong, and customers will be left frustrated, unheard and will want to look elsewhere.

“We can only hope these big players will be pulling their socks up to improve their services. It’s no surprise that in a year when customers are once again having to swallow hefty mid-contract price rises that they feel they’re not getting value for money.

“This is more evidence and only affirms our stance that Ofcom needs to ban mid-contract price rises.”

Plusnet won ‘Best Provider’ as 79% of users rated them the best.

The ‘Fastest Widely Available Provider’ was Virgin Media 188Mbps (average download), while Vodafone secured ‘Best Value for Money’.
