Residential Internet almost never guarantees speed to the Internet backbone, it is just advertising the Ethernet link speed. There are subscriptions with guaranteed performance, but at a different price.

My home Internet connections are 1 Gbps and 300 Mbps (2 links from 2 providers, I work from home and I need the uptime) for less than $10 each, but the transfer speeds are close to these numbers only for local servers, getting out of the country is about half these speeds.
