BT is offering me speeds of 60 mbps, while Shell is offering 90 mbps. Shell’s minimum gaurenteed speed is 70 mpbs and BT’s is 50 mpbs. They both use Openreach cables. Will there be any difference?

They call it Ultrafast. Here is the product: https://i.imgur.com/l9SQBx9.png
(Although the speeds seem fast here, on the phone they said in my area I’d likely get closer to 90-120, which is why I wrote 90 in my original post.)
Yes so that is the gfast product, a lot of providers dont sell it at all, or only do if the property is likely to get 150mbps.
Oh really? I can also get this option from Sky (who also use Openreach, I believe): https://i.imgur.com/u7i5P1Q.png Do you think I’d just be getting ripped off if I go with anyone but BT?
No, id argue bt is overpriced. But a gfast forecast of 90+ is borderline not worth the extra money imho.
Ive previously had gfast and it was on the low end of the estimates at my address and i fought with disconnections for about a year before openreach finally found a fault. In my experience its Much more more sensitive to issues that superfast.
Btw, based on what openreach says, my address can get gfast. Just seems only Shell and maybe Sky offer it: https://i.imgur.com/eDqjXru.png
I had it with EE, at the time zen and others were selling it. There used to be a list on the openreach website
