One million cancel broadband as living costs rise (UK)

Of course we do. However, other people have mentioned people might just be using their phones instead.

As an example:

https://www.voxi.co.uk/for-now - £10/month unlimited calls, texts, data for 6months - then you go onto a £10/month plan but without the unlimited data.

We also have social tariffs for broadband too:

Seems like a bigger issue is people not knowing about these tariffs.

I'd like to add, I firmly believe everyone should have government provided "basic" internet that's at least 38Mbps or something similar. I really do hate what the government has done to the UK over the last decade so I'm not on their side or anything.

Smarty piggyback on Three's network and they're really cheap, however for some reason in 2023 they only support 5G on certain handsets.
