UK ISP Quickline Connect Four More Rural Villages to Full Fibre
Hull-based broadband ISP Quickline, which is building a new gigabit-capable full fibre (FTTP) network across parts of England, has today announced that their network has gone live across almost 2,500 extra properties – the Lincolnshire hamlets of North Elkington, South Elkington and Acthorpe, as well as Eggborough in North Yorkshire.
Residential customers reached by their new full fibre network are typically charged from £29 per month on a 24-month term for 100Mbps (50Mbps upload) speeds with free installation, and that goes up to £49 for their top 900Mbps (450Mbps upload) tier. The first 3 months of service are also free.
The operator, supported by funding of around £500m from Northleaf Capital Partners, has previously stated that they hold an aspiration to cover 500,000 premises in rural and semi-rural areas across North East England with “ultrafast broadband” via both FTTP and their 5G based fixed wireless technology “by 2025” (here). Some 300,000 of that figure are already being reached by their wireless network.
