FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

London, England - 27 February 2026 - A new free broadband speed testing tool built specifically for UK consumers has launched today at www.broadbandspeedtest.uk.com, giving households and businesses a fast, accurate, and jargon-free picture of their real internet performance.

The tool measures the four key metrics that define real-world broadband quality: download speed, upload speed, ping (latency), and jitter - with results benchmarked against UK-specific averages across all major connection types, including ADSL, FTTC, Full Fibre (FTTP), and 5G Home Broadband.

Why Now?

The UK broadband market is at a tipping point. Full Fibre now reaches 78% of UK homes, yet millions of consumers remain on legacy copper connections - often unaware that their speeds fall well below what they are paying for. According to Ofcom, the UK national average download speed sits at approximately 69.4 Mbps, but users on older connections frequently receive a fraction of that figure.

www.broadbandspeedtest.uk.com was created to close that knowledge gap - putting real data directly in the hands of consumers.

Key Features at Launch

Instant Speed Test - measures download speed, upload speed, ping, and jitter in seconds

UK-Specific Benchmarks - results are contextualised against real UK averages for the user's connection type (FTTP, FTTC, ADSL, 5G)

Live UK Speed Test Activity - real-time community results from across the country

Monthly ISP Speed Rankings - showing how major UK providers actually perform based on real user data, not marketing claims

Plain-English Results - designed for everyday users, not just tech enthusiasts

Deal Comparison Guidance - users whose speeds fall short of advertised figures are guided to explore faster, better-value alternatives in conjunction with www.comparebroadbandpackages.co.uk

Quote from the Founder

"ISPs make big promises on the tin. Our broadband speed test gives UK consumers the facts - quickly, clearly, and for free. Whether you're working from home, gaming, streaming 4K, or simply frustrated with slow speeds, the tool tells you exactly what your connection is doing and what it should be doing."
- Marc Ferguson, Founder

The tool is available now, completely free, at www.broadbandspeedtest.uk.com.
