Merseyside-based UK ISP BeFibre, which is powered by FullFibre Ltd’s national gigabit speed Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network, has today launched two new products – FlexiMonth & BeWork. The first, FlexiMonth, essentially adds the option to take out a short monthly contract (instead of the usual 12-24 month terms), albeit at extra cost.
All FlexiMonth packages come with a Linksys Wi-Fi 6 router and zero installation, activation or set-up fees. For example, BeFibre’s entry-level 150Mbps package normally costs £19 per month on a 24-month term, but those who opt for the 30-day term will pay £30 per month.
Meanwhile, BeWork is being billed as offering “the ultimate full fibre broadband solutions tailored for businesses of all sizes“, which means packages that include the following features (as well as Static IP addresses).

This ISP salespeople is in the habit of telling my tenants that they do not need to seek of the landlord’s permission to install their hardware in my properties and that they “will sort everything out”. It’s the tenants obligation to seek permission from the landlord. A third party cant do it and they don’t anyway. The landlord can’t object because the landlord doesn’t know what the tenant has done. This is because the installation quality is so bad. I’m within my rights to seek possession of the property for a breach of the tenancy because my agreements say “no one but OpenReach” I had them install in my home and what a mess. Nothing is straight. They are desperate to sign people up. I’m no fan of OpenRoach but I suggest you avoid. Trying to get this corrected is impossible. At the end of the minimum term it’s going.
Shame Be Fibre can’t keep up with existing equipment and customer base, always too slow to upgrade, causing speed drop outs on a massive scale across the network. 18 months of pure hell, 4 different routers, constant drop outs, slow speeds once connected, even the ombudsman was involved,still no changes.
Since i was thankfully blessed with early release from the Be Fibre contract without penalty, only penalty was the previous 18 months. Just feel sorry for the poor people believing the leaflets and jargon, then tied down for the contract length, lucky if it’s the 30 days one, doubt you’d renew for the 2nd month.
