ISP Purefibre Join CityFibre’s FTTP Broadband Network in Slough
Homes in the Berkshire (England) town of Slough, specifically those covered by CityFibre’s local £24m rollout of a new gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTH) broadband network in the area, now have an additional choice of UK ISP after Purefibre joined their wholesale platform.
The provider will offer locals a single package that can deliver unlimited symmetric speeds of up to 1Gbps (this is given a 500Mbps average advertised rate) for just £36 per month on a 1-month minimum rolling contract term. The package includes a Plume based mesh WiFi system, UK-based support and free activation.
CityFibre’s wider £4bn investment programme has already covered 1 million UK premises with their gigabit FTTP broadband lines, and they aim to have 8 million “substantially completed” – across 285 cities, towns and villages (c.30% of the UK) – by the end of 2025 (here).
