O2 has won awards for providing the fastest broadband service
and delivering the best customer satisfaction.
Top 10
Broadband, the UK's broadband comparison site, has announced
the results of its inaugural annual broadband awards.
Along with O2's awards,
BT was the winner in the Wireless Broadband category and
3 was deemed the
best Mobile Broadband provider.
The Top 10 Broadband team analysed data captured in over 310,000
speed tests carried out on the Top 10 Broadband site as part of the
judging process.
Broadband packages were also tested against a wide range of
criteria to secure awards in categories such as Customer
Satisfaction and Broadband Bundle.
O2 won the Fastest
Broadband and Customer Satisfaction awards, with an average
download speed of 6.128mbps and a customer rating of 3.84 out of
5.
This made O2 attractive to UK consumers who want to download
songs and movies, stream live video and play games online without
the connection dropping in and out or the
download taking a long time.
The Wireless Broadband award went to BT, as its wireless router,
the BT Home Hub 2.0, doubles the wireless reach of most routers and
supports digital TV.
3 was the clear winner in the Mobile Broadband category, with
its expansive range of packages offering a variety of download
allowance and laptop options, said Top Ten Broadband.
