But it was also clear our customers wanted us to change aspects of what we do.<\/p>\n<p>The changes we\u2019ve made to our services are part of that listening process and will hopefully make our customers proud of the broadband service this region enjoys. Full fibre Lightstream is already the Ferrari of the broadband world \u2013 now we&#8217;re putting that Ferrari within everyone&#8217;s reach.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The new prices make KCOM look much more competitive with the wider market than they did before, albeit still some distance off the cheapest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a> packages on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>&#8217;s national network.
