ISP Community Fibre Claim Lowest Priced UK Symmetric Broadband

Tuesday, May 29th, 2018 (6:21 pm) - Score 6,944

London centric fibre optic ISP Community Fibre has dropped the prices of their Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH/P) packages for new customers by 25% and now claim to be offering the “lowest priced symmetric broadband package in the UK,” although this is perhaps only valid for their slower tiers.

At present the provider expects to extend their Gigabit capable FTTH/P broadband network to around 60,000 homes in London by the end of 2018 (mostly council / social housing), which will be followed by 100,000 in 2019. After that they aspire to reach 500,000 premises passed by the end of 2022 (some 150,000 of which have already been contracted).

Today the provider has decided to boost their volume by adopting the time honoured practice of slashing prices for new customers, specifically those taking out a 12 month contract term.

Community Fibre Symmetric Home Plans
1000 / 1000Mbps (peak 920 up/down) = £50 £37 a month
200 / 200Mbps (peak 200 up/down) = £35 £26 a month
40 / 40Mbps (peak 40 up/down) = £20 £15 a month

The 40Mbps tier is definitely a candidate for “lowest priced symmetric broadband package,” although the same can’t strictly be said about their top Gigabit plan since B4RN do a 1Gbps service from £30 per month (although they do charge £150 for connection). Meanwhile TalkTalk’s similar network in York tends to be priced from £25 per month (24 month term) or £33.50 on a shorter 18 month contract (without setup fee).

Sadly there’s little point in any FTTP/H providers claiming to be the “lowest priced … in the UK” right now because the vast majority of consumers still cannot access their networks.
