Broadband near AL1 9YB
The good news for broadband users in AL1 9YB is that the exchange, St Albans is only
25m away from your property, which means that your broadband speed won't be degraded because
of the distance between you and the exchange.
The St Albans exchange is amongst the top 2
%
most densely populated exchanges (serving the most domestic properties) in the UK. This is a bit of a mixed bag for you and others using the exchange. On the plus
side the volume of users means that it is a priority for BT and Open Reach to mainatin and improve this exchange. This exchange is likely to be a candidate for the
latest technologies, the best infrastructure and the best capacity (backhaul) available. That said, the downside of such a highly populated exchange is that it is
likely, from time to time, to suffer from capacity issues, despite the best efforts of Open Reach to enure equitable service. This generally means that when lots
of people are using their broadband at the same time in this area will affect less tollerable services like streaming video or live chat on Facetime® and Skype®.
AL1 9YB is served by the St Albans exchange which delivers service to
76,576 residents in and around AL1 9YB living in
32,455 properties.
Urban City And Town is the term used by the ONS to describe the residents of AL1 9YB.
In the depths of Winter when many outdoor activities are curtailed and most people are home, you may notice that your internet performance is worse than
normal or that your films take longer to download as everyone is consuming broadband at the same time, both in your own home and in those of your neighbours.
Adverse weather conditions, such as winter storms and torrential rain, can also play havoc with connectivity and in some regions with the power supply.
Switching broadband in AL1 9YB
Before switching broadband provider at your existing address your reasons for changing will be either;
lower cost, increased speed, reliability issues, better customer service and or a change of package.
Lower cost
Getting a lower monthly price is one of the most common reason for changing broadband provider. In order to take advantage of this option you need to be sure you are not in an existing contract. If you are out of contract, you have two options to try and reduce the monthly cost of your broadband, speak to the retentions department of your current provider or change provider. In order to get any benefit from your current provider you are likely to need to threaten to leave. Once you have threatened to leave the sales or customer care operator you are talking to will put you through to the retentions or churn reduction department. This department is usually empowered to offer better rates than those in the sales department. If they do not offer you a satisfactory deal then consider your other option, changing service provider. Do bear in mind that starting getting a better price will require you to sign a new contract for 12 or more months. This is a relatively straightforward process, simply enter your postcode in the search box above and we will find you the best deal in your area.Increased speed
This is a tricky reason for changing broadband provider as it is the least good reason as most providers will, such as TalkTalk, BT, Plus.net, etc all use the same ADSL infrastructure, which means you will get the same performance (upload and download speeds) regardless of who you buy your broadband from, although price, level of service and suchlike will vary.Reliability Issues
Like attempting to increase the speed of your broadband, changing provider due to reliability issues is potentially a complete waste of time without knowing what the cause of the issues are. Before proceeding, have a good read through our Broadband Stability Guide to see if there are any tips and tricks in there to help sort out your broadband reliability issues, avoiding a change of providers, just to end up with the same problem.Better Customer Service
Notwithstanding the comments in reliability issues, which might be causing you problems because the level of service from your current provider is too poor to find any faults you might have, changing your provider due to poor customer service is generally a good move. Selecting which is the best provider for you, however, is not as easy as that as it very much depends on what you use your broadband for and how technical you are. Some broadband packages are very much aimed at the average consumer and their support teams are trained accordingly. Some, however, are aimed at the tech savvy, the gamers and the developers. We advise choosing the correct one for you.Upgrade your package
When we say changing your package, we mean changing the services that come with your broadband like TV, mobile, landline, sports package, Sky Atlantic bundle and so on. There are no easy answers about your package as everyone has a different idea of what they want or what is important to them. Of course, the broadband providers want to supply all the services you can, which they like to call Quad Play, which is what we like to call, entanglement. As the name suggests, this is the process of selling you a service you want and charging you for 5 or 8 other services you don't want. Avoid this situation at all costs!!Recent searches
