Yeah, or they just don't want to sell it maybe.
Think i would prefer to stay with well know companies who have stood the test of time...
I may be will to up my budget to £25 a month max....
What? They were incorporated in 2009 in their current form and have been about since 2005.
It's fine mate, go with Vodafone, then good luck when you speak customer services if you ever need to.
You still haven't said what kind of options you have, ie, fibre, copper, VM, alt nets.
Better Internet Dashboard
Lookup and understand the fibre situation of an address within the UK, including multiple service provider checks, mobile data coverage, and planned roadworks.

They've already been discounted as too expensive, but the whole 'rather go with an established company' quip is incorrect hence I pointed it out.
There is no fundamental difference between any of the Openreach ISPs in terms of reliability or quality of service because they are all using the same lines.
Where ISPs differ is when things go wrong and that’s when you need to contact the support and if there isn’t any then you get unhappy really quickly.
And unfortunately you have to pay for that support. A&A are magnificent in terms of support and you pay royally for it. Zen are great at support. EE, BT, PlusNet are all basically BT and you pay for that. Vodafone is a big provider but their support is shocking. If it works then you’re golden and it’s cheap as chips but when it doesn’t you’re looking at online chat for support. And it’s pants.
I don’t know about Now. I doubt it could be worse than Vodafone though.

My experience of now when trying to get the upper speed and failing as the checker said we should be able too was that CS was responsive, always called back when they said they would and even called up weeks later to check we were happy.
Can't ask for more than that for 20quid including line rental.

I can get Sky fibre for £25 a month. Think i will just go for that...
Are they or do they just resell their content?
If you put your postcode (just your postcode) into the address search at https://broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com and then pick your address from the list that it returns, what results are shown? Take a screenshot and crop out the address before you post it.
Don't really know, never really looked recently, just assumed, Sky launched NowTV back in the day, started as Skys non subscription service, don't think that has changed, blimey even the box looks like re-badged version of Skys Q hardware, can't be a coincidence.
