Sky Broadband House Move

6 Posts

Hi Guys,
I hope you're well.
I'm currently on Sky broadband and 6 months into an 18-month contract. I am moving to a new property and the speed is much slower at the new property than what I'm on now. Does anybody know if I can get out of my existing contract given the speed is not the same as my original agreement?
Any Guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Chris

However, they are usually willing to waive that right if you takeout a new contract at the new address, they don't have to, but they generally do. Should you decide to go with another provider at your new address then they can invoke the early termination fee. It's not their fault that you've decided to move, neither is it within their power to provide you with the same speeds.
Would you have been willing to pay them more if the speeds had been greater than those you are presently enjoying
