NOW Broadband is the home broadband service owned by Sky. It runs over the Openreach network, so it’s available widely across the UK – full fibre where Openreach has built it, and standard fibre elsewhere. NOW is pitched as a simpler, value option. To see which NOW packages reach your address, and how they compare with other providers, enter your postcode and let Quotezone do the search.
What is NOW Broadband?
NOW is the budget-minded broadband brand from Sky, carried on the Openreach network that reaches almost every UK home.
Owned by Sky
NOW is Sky’s home broadband brand, sold alongside its NOW streaming service. It offers a stripped-back, value-focused take on broadband rather than a long list of extras.
Runs over Openreach
NOW delivers broadband over the Openreach network – full fibre (FTTP) where it’s been built, and standard fibre where full fibre hasn’t reached your street yet.
A simpler choice
The appeal of NOW is straightforwardness: a small set of packages aimed at households that want a reliable connection without paying for bundled add-ons they won’t use.
Is NOW Broadband available in my area?
A postcode check is the only reliable way to confirm what NOW can offer at your address, because availability changes from one street to the next.
Wide Openreach reach
Because Openreach reaches almost every UK home, NOW is available very widely – though whether that’s full fibre or standard fibre depends on your address.
Full fibre where built
Where Openreach has installed full fibre to your property, NOW can offer a full-fibre package. Where it hasn’t, the connection uses standard fibre instead.
Check your exact address
Enter your postcode, then add your address, and Quotezone shows the NOW packages that can actually be installed where you live, alongside other providers.
What broadband does NOW offer?
The exact packages, speeds and prices NOW offers change over time and vary by address – the postcode search shows the current deals you can get.
Full fibre where it’s built
Where full fibre reaches your address over Openreach, NOW offers full-fibre packages at a range of speeds to suit different households.
Standard fibre elsewhere
Where full fibre hasn’t arrived, NOW’s broadband over Openreach uses standard fibre, which handles everyday browsing and streaming.
Value-focused packages
NOW keeps its line-up simple, with a choice of speed tiers so you can match the package to how your home uses the internet rather than paying for more than you need.
How does NOW compare with other providers?
Whether NOW is right for you depends on how its deals stack up against the other providers at your address – comparing side by side makes that clear.
Compare at your address
The fairest way to judge any provider is against the others available where you live. Quotezone shows NOW’s deals alongside rival providers for your postcode.
Weigh speed, price and contract
Look at the speed you’re likely to get at peak times (8pm–10pm), the monthly cost, set-up fees, contract length and any in-contract price rise (Ofcom).
Factor in offers
Providers often add incentives such as gift cards or vouchers. Quotezone shows these alongside the core deal so you can see the real value of each package.
How to switch to NOW
Switching to NOW is simpler than it used to be – you don’t need to contact your current provider to start the move.
Compare and choose
Enter your postcode on Quotezone, compare the deals available at your address and pick the NOW package – or another provider – that suits you.
Buy on NOW’s site
You complete the purchase in NOW’s checkout, which starts the move under Ofcom’s One Touch Switching rules, in place since 12 September 2024 (Ofcom).
Get connected
NOW arranges the switch and closes your old service. A new full-fibre line may need a short engineer visit to fit a small box on your wall.
NOW and the UK full-fibre rollout
NOW runs entirely over Openreach, so the broadband it can offer you depends on how far full fibre has been built in your area. Across the UK, full fibre now reaches 82% of homes – 24.9 million premises – and gigabit-capable broadband 89%, as of January 2026 (Ofcom Connected Nations). As that rollout continues, more addresses gain access to full-fibre packages from providers that use Openreach, including NOW.
Where full fibre hasn’t reached your street, NOW’s connection still works over standard fibre on the same Openreach network. That’s why a postcode check matters: it shows the NOW packages you can actually get today, so you can compare them with other providers before your current deal ends.
