More bad news for alternative networks today. Swedish provider VXFIBER<\/a>, which alongside subsidiary and ISP LilaConnect<\/a> had recently been busy rolling out several new gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband ISP networks in the UK, has confirmed to ISPreview that they’ve paused the rollout.<\/p>\n

Until now the operator had been building their full fibre network across several UK areas, such as the Staffordshire cities and towns of Stoke-on-Trent (100,000 premises – here<\/a>), Leek (11,750 premises – here<\/a>), Cannock and Penkridge (here<\/a>), as well as the Essex town of Colchester (8,000 premises \u2013 here<\/a>), parts of London (3,000 premises via Prime Fibre), Haverhill in Suffolk (here<\/a>), Crewe and Nantwich in Cheshire (here<\/a>), and their projects in Bristol and Uttoxeter.<\/p>\n

However, over the past few days we began to receive reports of redundancies occurring at VX FIBER’s division in the United Kingdom which, judging by the feedback on social media, seemed to be primarily impacting their engineering teams.<\/p>\n

The operator has now confirmed to us that they’re “pausing further deployment to focus on commercialising the fibre already laid<\/em>“, which explains why so many workers are facing redundancy. The tenative plan is to resume the build work at some point in 2024, but that may ultimately depend upon what “strategic options<\/em>” (e.g. new investment, mergers etc.) they can find to help keep the funding taps fully open.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for VX FIBER said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We are refocusing VX Fiber\u2019s UK business plan for 2023 on fibre operator deals and the commercialisation of existing networks, while looking at strategic options to take the business forward. We are pausing further deployment to focus on commercialising the fibre already laid. We plan to recommence fibre deployment in 2024.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In recent weeks and months, a number of other full fibre operators have also been announcing job losses (e.g. CityFibre<\/a>, Zzoomm<\/a>, Lightspeed Broadband<\/a>, VMO2, G.Network<\/a>, Hyperoptic<\/a> etc.), which often appears to reflect the pressures they\u2019re all under in the current climate. Key issues tend to be rapidly rising costs (build, leases etc.), aggressive competition from rivals (e.g. overbuild) and the related need to secure a viable level of consumer take-up.<\/p>\n

Such issues could potentially dampen the appetite of investors to keep the funding taps fully open, while finding fresh sources of investment in this market isn’t perhaps as easy as it once was. Situations like this tend to thus result in slower builds (i.e. forces the operator to focus on take-up, rather than new fibre) and that may in turn put pressure on jobs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
