Community Fibre Reviews

It was very good at the beginning, however, the speed started to drop down every week, have tried calling their support number and stayed for more than an hour and submitted a ticket and never got a response back. their service becomes as other companies, at first they provide you with the best and when they grow up, that's it. I have contracted to have 150MB and all I am getting is 79M. bug drop. not streaming any media and only one device is running at once.

At time of writing 50Mbps is £20 and 150Mbps is £25 per month, making the latter superb value. They offer 1Gbps but the kit they send you can work up to 10Gbps so they have decided to do things properly with a single slim bidirectional fibre through the wall into a compact white faceplate with Angle Polished connectors (the most reliable) and a service that gives you the full speed up as well as down (compared to ADSL or Virgin, who give you 6Mbps up with 100Mbps down!)
The installer who visited came back very soon out of hours when the initial install was unable to activate because mine was the first flat to bring online in this building and was friendly and helpful, as well as the support staff who answer the phone.

1 millisecond avg ping to Google and a reliable service have meant that I have not looked back since abandoning BT (purely due to pricing) and then Virgin because they suck in nearly every way - including their cable modem being a detectable source of EMI/RFI, which the Community Fibre kit doesn't come close to matching, partly due to optical fibre being essentially a non-conductor of electricity.

Shame it's only available in London at time of writing and one day they'll probably get bought by some venture capital nasty and go downhill, but for now I get service that is very hard to complain about!

I think your service has been amazing! I pay for 100kbs. I have regularly had much faster than this. The value you offer is extraordinary. When I told B.T. I was cancelling their service, they told me not to believe it. They said that they could not nearly match your price and that I was certain to get much less than 100kbs if I went for such a cheap deal. In fact, I know your speeds have often be a lot faster than the 100Mbps you promise (often about 250Mbps).

The woman who installed the modem was lovely and did a great job. And since then every contact with you has been perfect. I will miss the service, the speed and the price when I move my new flat.

It is so nice to have all your expectations exceeded.

Just switched to Community Fibre. What a change. Instead of waiting for hours to speak on the phone with someone in the Philippines who doesn't really speak English, I got patient personal help (which I really need because of ill health) to get my broadband and associated Vonage phone up and running. Big Citation to Luther Kitchener, the CF rep who helped me through it all. It would be nice if it always went like this
