Ofcom says UK consumers are benefiting from faster fixed and mobile networks
By June 2016, 44% of all fixed broadband connections in the UK were able to receive download speeds of 30Mbit/s or more and nearly two-thirds of mobile subscriptions were enabled for 4G.
This is according to Ofcom’s Communications Market Report 2017.
Consumers are using these networks more, with average data usage, per fixed line residential broadband connection, up by 36% year on year and average data use per mobile connection increased by 44% to 1.3GB.
Due to increased smartphone ownership, most households move between fixed line broadband and mobile connections and the average monthly household spend on telecoms services increased by 0.9% in 2016. This accounts for 3.8% of total household spend for the year.
Average monthly retail revenue per mobile subscription increased in 2016, as pre-pay consumers continued to migrate to post-pay services, and consumers used more data.
To offset the decline in fixed voice call volumes (down by 11.9% to 65 billion minutes) providers increased line rental and bundled calls prices.
