Which? responds as Ofcom says 24 million UK homes can get gigabit broadband

Rocio Concha, Director of Policy and Advocacy, said:

“A fast and reliable internet connection is essential to modern life and while it's positive that gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure has progressed – more needs to be done to improve take up levels among households.

“Consumers need better information, clearer and more consistent terms describing these services as well as targeted voucher and discount schemes. The government and Ofcom also still need to consider gigabit capability for more rural areas so that no part of the country gets left behind."
