Which? response to Committees of Advertising Practice consultation on broadband speeds

Alex Neill, Which? Managing Director of Home Products and services, said:

“Following our campaign this is a positive step and it’s vital that the proposals aren’t watered down during the consultation. The ASA and CAP must deliver changes that will guarantee as many people in the UK as possible are getting the broadband speeds advertised by providers.”
