About Broadband Scout

Broadband Scout is an independent UK broadband comparison service that helps households find suitable internet deals based on their address.

We bring together broadband availability and pricing information from major UK providers so you can quickly see which services may be available in your area and compare speeds, prices and contract terms in one place.

Our focus is on making broadband comparison simpler and more transparent, starting with what is actually available where you live.

What Broadband Scout does

Broadband availability in the UK varies by postcode and often by individual property.

Broadband Scout uses postcode and address information to identify which broadband technologies and providers may serve your location. This can include:

  • full fibre (FTTP) broadband
  • cable broadband
  • standard fibre broadband
  • 5G home broadband where available

We then present comparable deal information such as speeds, monthly pricing and contract terms to help you choose between available options.

Our approach

Broadband Scout aims to provide clear, consistent broadband comparisons based on UK availability data and provider information.

We focus on:

  • address-level broadband availability
  • simple price comparison
  • clear speed information
  • transparent deal presentation

Our goal is to help UK households understand their broadband options without needing to check multiple provider websites.

How Broadband Scout is funded

Broadband Scout is free to use.

Some broadband providers pay us a commission if you choose a deal through our site. This helps support the operation of the comparison service.

Commercial relationships do not affect how deals are presented or compared.

Our mission

Our mission is to make broadband comparison more useful by starting with availability — helping people see what they can actually get at their address before comparing deals.
