Altnet ISP Lightning Fibre launch UK Black Friday broadband sale

Eastbourne-based broadband provider Lightning Fibre, which is building a full fibre (FTTP) network across Sussex and Kent in England (they also hold a partnership to use CityFibre’s UK network – here), appears to have become one of the first ISPs to kick off their early Black Friday sale today.

The headline discounts reduce the price of both their 1Gbps and 2.5Gbps (symmetric speed) tiers to £19 per month for the first 6 months of service, rising to £32 and £39 per month, respectively, for the remaining months of their 24-month minimum term contract (12-month terms also exist, but at extra cost and without the Black Friday deals). The packages also include free installation, unlimited usage, a Wi-Fi 7 router and a commitment to “no annual price rises“.

On top of that, new customers in selected towns across East Sussex and Kent can get cashback of up to £75. Customers who order by 30th November can book their installation for any date up to 31th January 2027 and still get the offer, so anyone waiting for a current contract to end can lock it in now if they want.

ISPreview understands that new customers living in Heathfield, Hastings, St Leonards and Tenterden can get cashback of £50 on 1Gbps and £75 on 2.5Gbps, while those in Eastbourne, Polegate, Hailsham and Pevensey can only get £50 cashback on their 2.5Gbps tier. But there’s no cashback for people in other locations on their network. Eligibility is also set by address, not by town name, so this may vary a bit at the edges.
