Full Fibre UK ISP CommunityFibre to Launch Cheap Unlimited 5G Mobile eSIM UPDATE
Alternative broadband operator and ISP CommunityFibre, which have deployed their 5Gbps speed full fibre broadband (FTTP) network across 1.4 million UK homes (inc. 185k businesses within 200 metres of their network) in London and the South East, has today soft launched a £15 unlimited Mobile eSIM service for their existing customers.
The service, which has been developed in partnership with Gamma Communications and app developer Zappter, aims to go live in June 2026. The new mobile eSIM plans will offer unlimited UK data, calls and SMS for just £15/month for CommunityFibre broadband customers and £17/month for non-broadband customers. Existing broadband subscribers can also add additional Unlimited Mobile eSIMs, so family members can get the same offer.
The monthly renewing product provides customers with a flexible mobile option that can be activated directly on compatible smartphones and tablets via eSIM technology, without the need for a physical SIM card. The service is also said to fully support WiFi Hotspot and Tethering features.

The mobile offer also includes a travel eSIM that provides country-specific roaming bundles with set allowances. Customers will be able to “enjoy fast 5G speeds in the UK and add international connectivity when needed, without long-term contracts“, said the provider. Prepaid roaming data plans are available for more than 160 countries from as little as £2.29.
Graeme Oxby, Chief Executive Officer of Community Fibre, said:
“The mobile market has become increasingly expensive and complicated for consumers, despite the technology becoming simpler and more digital. With our growth in mobile, we’re taking a different approach — delivering fast, unlimited 5G connectivity at a highly competitive price, with the flexibility customers increasingly expect.
Because we build, own and operate our full fibre broadband network, we’ve created a model that allows us to offer better long-term value across both broadband and mobile. This launch is another step in delivering the highest-quality and most affordable services for our customers.”
Customers will be able to join the service via CommunityFibre’s mobile app – through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. CommunityFibre says the fact they own and operate their own full fibre network is what has enabled them to offer such competitive pricing on both broadband and mobile. But at the time of writing, we don’t yet know what mobile network they’ll be using for this.
UPDATE 8:19am
We’ve confirmed they’re using VodafoneThree (the Three UK side).

£15 for existing broadband customers and £17 for new non broadband customers is a good price compared to three and Vodafone unlimited options with a stupid speed cap penny pinching more competitions better for customers….
£15 for existing customers? I’d imagine they’ll do package deals later on, but for now I’ll stick with Lebara.
I’ve been on an unlimited SIM-only plan with SMARTY for the last three years, and they still only charge me £15 a month. They keep extending the deal.
I left 3 network for id mobile they are doing it for 15 pounds unlimited everything three couldn’t even match that deal they wanted 32 pounds three used to be good for deals since Vodafone taken over it’s going downhill.
