    At 37 I don't have issue but on days when it drops to 20 then I struggle with zoom specially if someone is concurrently watching Netflix downstair !!! 
    Then you have some other problem as 20mbps is more than enough for Zoom and someone streaming Netflix a 4k.

    I would be getting Sky to do a line check as there shouldn't be enought contention at the exchange to drop the throughput by nearly 50%.

    You need to look at QoS (quality of service) and/or traffic prioritisation on your router so your connection is less impacted by other users streaming films.
