(Telecompaper) Internet users across Europe face geographic lottery regarding the price, speed, and range of choice of broadband, according to new EU research. Four new studies shows that there is virtually no pattern or coherence in broadband markets across the EU. Consumers are also confused by the varying information provided by operators, limiting their ability to make the choice that best suits them. The research shows that prices for the most common broadband connections can be up to four times higher in some Member States, 66 percent of consumers do not know what Internet speed they have signed up for, and internet users only get 75 percent of the broadband speed they sign up for, on average.
