How we research
satwise publishes plain-English guides to satellite broadband for UK homes. We do not sell broadband. Our job is to help you decide whether satellite is right for you, and if it is, how to buy and use it well.
Where our facts come from
Each guide is researched against primary sources first: Ofcom reports and licences, providers’ own plan pages, help centres and terms, and government scheme pages. Independent speed data comes from Ookla and Opensignal. Where a figure is only visible at a provider’s checkout, we say so and name who reported it.
Across the five guides we currently cite 91 sources. They are listed at the end of every guide so you can check them yourself.
Why every fact has a date
Satellite broadband prices move quickly. Starlink changed its UK prices or terms at least seven times in 2026, and monthly prices now vary by address. Every price, speed and scheme on this site is labelled with the month it was checked, so you always know how fresh it is.
How we keep guides current
We review the provider and cost guides monthly, and immediately after events that change the advice: the end of a promotion, a scheme closing, a new provider launching, or a new Ofcom Connected Nations report.
Our advice
We recommend the cheapest option that will work reliably at your address, and that is often not satellite. If full fibre or strong 4G/5G is available to you, we say so first.
Always confirm the price at your own checkout before you order: offers, surcharges and area pricing can differ from anything published here.
