One third of consumers wishing to switch broadband provider don’t do so because they have no faith in the process according  latest research from BroadbandChoices.co.uk .

The poll, which mirrored previous studies, was carried out to mark the first anniversary of a mandatory Migration Authorisation Code (MAC) which was introduced by Ofcom to make switching providers easier.

In 2007 the figures for consumers switching broadband provider rose, to 13 percent (up from nine percent in 2006). Current statistics show that one in four consumers is looking to switch broadband provider in 2008. But whereas 300,000 consumers switch energy supplier every month with ease, broadband switching has only 154,917 switching per month.
