Wholesale Provider PXC Partners with UK ISP Association

Network provider PlatformX Communications (PXC), which was formerly known as Talk Talk Wholesale before the demerger (here), has joined the Internet Service Providers’ Association (ISPA UK), a trade body for UK ISPs and associated organisations, as part of its Partnership Programme.

PXC sees the move as being part of their bid to strengthen links with the wider telecoms and broadband sector, which reflects their ambition for becoming the UK’s go-to alternative networks aggregator at the wholesale level.

The company already provides its (circa 1,000) partners (e.g. retail ISPs) with access to various networks, such as CityFibre, MS3, Freedom Fibre, CommunityFibre, ITS Technology, Netomnia / Brsk and Openreach. But they also have plans to scale this list in future.

Katie Crellin, PXC’s Head of Regulation, Policy and Compliance, said:

“A key part of PXC’s strategy is to become the UK’s leading alternative networks aggregator platform and offer The Channel, and the UK businesses it serves, the most reliable fibre connectivity, at the best prices. The forum ISPA has created, and the work they’re doing to encourage the market to work closer together, plays into our strategy and we’re really excited to be able to work with them to share our story and join their mission.”
