Rural Broadband ISP Quickline Refreshes UK Packages for New Year 2026
Alternative rural broadband ISP Quickline, which is building a new gigabit-capable full fibre (FTTP) and fixed wireless (FWA) network across parts of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire in England (3-Year Rollout Plan), has kicked off the New Year with a mild package refresh that reduces some prices and removes the cheapest entry-level fibre tier.
The most obvious change is the removal of their entry-level “START” package for new customers (no change for existing subscribers), which previously offered broadband speeds of 100Mbps (50Mbps upload) from £22 per month. Instead, the cheapest fixed-line option is now “Full Fibre 200” (previously known as “CONNECT“), which offers symmetric speeds of 200Mbps for £24.99 per month on a 24-month minimum term (reduced from £29.99 before).
After that, the 500Mbps tier has also been reduced from £39 to £28.99 per month, while their top 1000Mbps (gigabit) package has been reduced from £49 to £32.99 per month. All packages include a commitment to “no mid-contract price rises“, free install, free router and offers up to £300 in switching credit if you need help to cover the cost of exiting your previous ISP contract early, during a switch.

Quickline is currently aiming to extend gigabit-capable broadband to a further 360,000 UK premises across thousands of rural communities (roughly 170k via publicly funded projects and almost 200k from commercial builds) and the provider was previously aiming to end 2025 with a total of 200,000 premises passed.
