Altnet ISP Highland Broadband Discounts Gigabit Packages in Scotland
Alternative network operator and UK ISP Highland Broadband (Lothian Broadband), which is deploying a 10Gbp capable full fibre (FTTP) network across various rural parts of Scotland, has discounted their 1000Mbps (symmetric) speed package to just £34.99 per month on a 24-month term and reduced their 5Gbps tier to £49.99 (inc. £100 gift card).
Customers of the service can typically expect to receive unlimited usage, free installation, a Wi-Fi 6 wireless router (Wi-Fi 7 on their 5Gbps package), 24/7 network monitoring, a 28 day cooling off period, up to 12 months’ worth of Switching Credit to help you join while still under contract with your old ISP and the option to add Whole Home Wi-Fi for £10/month (free on their 5Gbps plan).
Customers of their 1Gbps and 5Gbps packages also receive Dynamic Parental Controls and Advanced Cyber Security features, but take note that Highland Broadband also applies a pricing policy like the big ISPs that hikes your monthly prices by £4 in April each year. Otherwise, their packages currently start at £29.99 per month for speeds of 150Mbps.
