ISP Aquiss to Stop Selling Copper Line ADSL Broadband Packages

Shropshire-based UK ISP Aquiss has today announced that they are to withdraw the ADSL and ADSL2+ based copper line broadband packages from sale to new customers from 31st December 2018. The provider will instead focus on selling faster hybrid-fibre (FTTC) and full fibre (FTTP / GPON) based services.

“At a time where ADSL orders account for less than 3% of new sales for Aquiss, both within our consumer and business sectors, now is the right time to focus on our future products and plan the withdrawal of legacy packages,” said Martin Pitt, Managing Director of Aquiss.

Customers who are still on the provider’s ADSL based broadband packages will continue to be supported, although the ISP said they would be “proactive, where possible” in moving them to newer / faster solutions.
