Incentivise broadband providers, only pay for the broad band you get

Closed 38 signatures

What the petition asks

Provider use the phrase ‘up to’ so there is no incentive for them to improve the speed or systems to provide what you are paying for. e.g speed quoted at 20 Mbs and you get 10 Mbs then you would only pay half the cost and so on. Providers would then need to tell the truth on broad band speeds.
