Business Broadband ISP B4BC Raise Concerns Over UK Rival One Connectivity UPDATE

Birmingham-based business broadband and UK communications provider Best 4 Business Communications (B4BC) appears to have contacted customers of Derby-based rival One Connectivity in order to raise concerns over the stability of the business, which recently became the subject of a winding-up petition by HMRC.

According to B4BC’s communication, which we’ve pasted at the very end of this article, the company highlights how Derby-based One Connectivity Limited (company number: 08677107) was recently hit by a winding-up petition (here) from the United Kingdom’s tax authority, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).

The letter goes on to claim that One Connectivity Limited is in “serious financial jeopardy” and is “attempting to shift customers into a newly formed company” – One Connectivity Solutions Ltd. – “without their consent“. But a quick check reveals that the new company has since renamed itself to Voxuna Technologies Limited on 12th March 2026, after B4BC sent their communication.

At this point B4BC’s message states that the new company “may not offer the service security your business requires” and that customers “risk locking your business into a contract with a company lacking a financial track record,” before adding that there is a “high risk” of “service suspension” or “imminent disconnection” if they stay with the current provider. Such claims should be taken with a pinch of salt as providers will often try their best to prevent such an outcome for paying customers.

Freddie Hawker, MD of B4BC, told ISPreview:

“The communication referenced formed part of a B2B message sent to businesses we believed may be affected by the ongoing situation involving One Connectivity Ltd.

Our intention was simply to encourage businesses to review their telecoms arrangements and ensure continuity of critical services in light of developments that are already a matter of public record, including the HMRC winding-up petition.

We are also aware that customers have received communications regarding a potential transfer of services to a newly formed entity, One Connectivity Solutions Ltd, which was referenced in our message.

The information referenced was based on publicly available records and industry communications at the time.

The message was intended to encourage businesses to review their services and was not presented as a definitive statement about the financial position or future of any organisation.

The communication was sent to business contact details obtained through legitimate B2B marketing data sources.”

ISPreview have made several attempts to contact One Connectivity over the past couple of weeks in the hope of clarifying their situation for customers. But thus far there has been no response to any of our messages.
