Is this a good deal with Virgin Media

I was with Virgin Media 200 Mbps broadband plan on a 12-month contract, paying £25 / month - with a welcome offer of £75 credit.
At end of contract, they are offering me 100 Mbps broadband plan on a 12-month contract, paying £24 / month, or same 200 Mbps broadband plan, paying £29 / month.
I have 2 smartphones, 2 laptops, 1 smart TV, 1 smart speaker and 2 smart bulbs - I think 100 Mbps will be good for me (assuming I get it).??
I had absolutely no problems with internet speed issues for the 12-month period when I was on their 200 Mbps plan... so never checked what speed I was actually getting.

So just check out the "Openreach" suppliers and put in your post code on one of the comparison sites. Max speed on the deals on offer will be 67Mbps and prices for that speed will be £23 to £29.0

That's a good price in my book - I'm paying £35 a month for 200 mbps. If I didn't ring them every few months, it'd be the standard £47 a month.0
