Has anybody got Vodafone as their fibre broadband supplier?

I’m currently on Sky but feel I’m not currently using the TV package enough so thinking of getting rid and replacing with a different fibre supplier and free view.

I’ve got Netflix and Prime TV.

Any feedback on Vodafone as a fibre supplier is most welcome. I’d be looking at their high speed option 2.

The internet will be exactly the same quality as it is with Sky seeing as it comes down the exact same pipe. The difference is that Sky's customer service is generally decent whereas Vodafone are st and couldn't give a hoot when it breaks.

Just moved away from Vodafone.

General Connection Speed was fine however Vodafone have a rather large Routing Issue in their Network.

Connecting to Netflix became a massive issue with Speeds being limited to 6Mbps rather than the 55Mbps the Line was capable.

Connection was being routed ----- Home > London > France > Belgium > East Coast USA > Dublin > West Coast USA

Moved to Plusnet and now the Service is much better

Same Connection routed ----- Home > Bristol > London > Amsterdam


Edit - Similar Issues with Amazon Prime also
