One of the best aspects of SSE Broadband is the simplicity of its broadband packages. Customers can choose from a variety of different packages to suit all needs, with 2 different speeds represented. Customers can also choose which phone package to bundle their broadband with.
SSE Broadband features two Fibre packages, meaning you can choose the exact bundle that’s right for you. Unlimited Fibre and Fibre Plus offering up to 35Mbps and 63Mbps on average respectively. This means that no whether you’re just browsing or downloading heavily, there’s an SSE broadband package that’s just right.
With SSE Broadband there are no upfront broadband charges, so you don't pay a connection fee. It makes the price structure much clearer than with some other providers, where you find out there's more to pay than just the monthly cost of broadband. SSE Broadband also fixes the price for your minimum term, ensuring that you won't face any hikes in your monthly fee during the 18-month contract.
The Superfast Fibre package offers up to 35Mbps on average, whilst Ultrafast boosts this to 63Mbps on average. These speeds are not guaranteed, as with any provider, but you will be achieving something close, and will definitely notice the significant difference from standard ADSL broadband, which can sometimes be lower than 10Mbps. Fibre is also less susceptible to the effects of external factors such as local web traffic.
Unlimited broadband gives you uncapped usage every month with your broadband deal. It is essential for heavy downloaders who regularly stream and save music or movies. Every time you open a web page you are downloading data, so a limit is used up whenever you are browsing the web, and when you access large files, like HD movies, this uses up a huge chunk of any pre-agreed limit. With unlimited downloads, you never have to worry about how much you browse and stream online.
