Superfast Fibre 2 Unlimited getting slower & slower

Started out as 80Mbps DL 17Mbps UL in the last few years it constantly drops.

Last year was 57Mbps DL 20Mbps UL. Just checked & its currently 50 Mbps DL 19Mbps UL.

Funnily enough on the BT website everytime I check online the max speed BT say they can offer in my area is the exact same lowest threshold I am on! BT estimate has dropped from 63Mbps in 2018 to 57Mbps in 2019 & just checked & it says 50 Mbps!

Last time BT had to send an engineer he said the reason for the speed constantly dropping is the local exchange is massively congested & over subscribed so more people are sharing the ports in the cabinet impacting speeds.

Is it even worth me asking BT to look into it again?

Re: Superfast Fibre 2 Unlimited getting slower & slower

stats look really bad compared to the dslchecker results

have you check BT pages for faults in your area?

BT have major faults in London on 0203 & 0207 numbers right now but not my area & I am 0208. I think something has happened in the local exchange as that is what the BT fault tracker says about the fault its at the Retail Server end right now!

Shepherds Bush @ Cabinet 31. Its at the top of the first screenshot I posted! BT auto closed the fault now but the issue is still the same keeps cutting out & resyncing not sure if I should open another fault or not as they have not fixed the original issue?

Re: Superfast Fibre 2 Unlimited getting slower & slower

there is obviously a line problem as your attenuation has dropped from 20 to 15 looking at both set of stats.  

if nothing listed on BT as fault then phone 151 and report fault
