Approximately 30 customers of GoFibre<\/a>‘s (BorderLink<\/a>) alternative full fibre broadband network in Scotland (e.g. Stonehaven) have been left to suffer internet connectivity problems for several days. The ISP has accused one of their “legacy<\/em>” connectivity suppliers of being responsible – something the supplier strongly denies.<\/p>\n

In case anybody has forgotten. GoFibre<\/a> currently plan to deploy their gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (FTTP<\/a>) network across 500,000 premises in the North of England and Scottish Borders area by around the end of 2025, which is being supported by a huge investment of \u00a3164m<\/strong> from Gresham House (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

However, some of the operator’s earliest customers, in Stonehaven<\/strong>, recently began informing us that they’d been left without broadband connectivity since Monday (3rd July). Customers were then informed, via email on Wednesday, that this was because “one of our key suppliers suddenly went into liquidation, and this has now been identified to be the cause of your service outage<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Extract from GoFibre<\/a>’s Customer Notice<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to rectify the service outages, we have deployed our civil engineering team and fibre installation team to build a separate infrastructure that will provide you with your service going forward. Our engineers have been working tirelessly throughout the day and during the nights to get this network build complete and I am pleased to let you know that we are now at a point where we can schedule the final build of this network.<\/p>\n

We will be scheduling the final works for Friday 7th July between 12pm – 2pm. During this time, you will have complete loss of connection while we switch the remaining infrastructure over to our new build.<\/p>\n

We completely understand your frustration at these issues and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused during this time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

After digging a bit deeper, ISPreview was informed by GoFibre<\/a> that the company involved in the liquidation is Scottish ISP Caleycom<\/a>, which tends to serve North East Scotland and also offers its own mix of fixed wireless access and full fibre broadband plans. The company details<\/a> for this business confirm the status of being in liquidation, but Caleycom has denied that the outage was caused by them (more on that below).<\/p>\n

A Spokesperson for GoFibre said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We can confirm that less than 30 GoFibre customers in a part of Aberdeenshire have experienced disruption to their broadband speed as a result of one of our small legacy connectivity suppliers, Caleycom, going into liquidation.<\/p>\n

We were already in the process of upgrading the network from G-PON to XGS-PON in the area and removing the need for the leased line connection, so this is now being accelerated and is due to be completed this week. No other customers are expected to be impacted across GoFibre’s network.<\/p>\n

Customers affected have been informed that the final works for the upgrade are scheduled for Friday 7th July between 12pm and 2pm. During this short time, customers will experience a loss of connection while the remaining infrastructure is switched over to the new build. We do apologise for any inconvenience.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The hope is that all will go well today and customers will then be back fully online by the mid-afternoon. Customers of the new service typically pay from \u00a336 per month for a 100Mbps package on a 24-month term with an included wireless router, which rises to \u00a369 per month for their top 1000Mbps plan. The latter also comes with a bonus Wi-Fi extender (this can optionally be taken on other plans for just \u00a35 per month extra).<\/p>\n

UPDATE 8th July 2023 @ 6am<\/strong><\/p>\n

ISPreview has since received feedback from both Caleycom’s former network engineer and their new owners, Converged Rural Broadband<\/strong>, both of which have disputed GoFibre’s claim.<\/p>\n

According to the feedback, Caleycom were indeed placed into Liquidation, but we\u2019re told this was a planned move and all assets, customer contracts and staff have reportedly been successfully transferred over to the new entity. The rapid pace of the change lends credibility to this.<\/p>\n

According to Caleycom, GoFibre did not hold a “formal contract<\/em>” (informal arrangement) with them for supply of the relevant circuit and were informed, as far back as April 2023, that it was the last remaining connection on their legacy backhaul network and would be withdrawn this summer – followed by several reminders.<\/p>\n

However, the relevant circuit is allegedly said by Caleycom to still be live (traffic is flowing over it) and has not been cut off, which suggests that this might not be the direct cause of GoFibre’s connectivity woes in the village. Caleycom states that, thus far, GoFibre have not reached out to them for support during the outage.<\/p>\n

A Spokesperson for Caleycom said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Caleycom\u2019s assets have been bought to form: Converged Rural Broadband Limited, and no services\/customers have experienced any outages whatsoever in relation to this change. All services continue as before.<\/p>\n

Notification is being issued to customers (but some details regarding direct debits had to be clarified first which is almost complete). GoFibre have not reported any issues to Caleycom\/Converged Rural Broadband Limited in regards to this purported issue.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

At the time of writing, we’re still waiting to hear back from locals as to whether Friday’s work has restored the service.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 10th July 2023 @ 11:39am<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve had an update from GoFibre.<\/p>\n

A GoFibre spokesperson said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We can confirm that our customers who were experiencing disruption to their broadband connection in Aberdeenshire last week, are now back up and running as of Friday and are connected directly to GoFibre’s XGS-PON network now. We’re picking up with Converged Rural Broadband Limited directly.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

UPDATE 13th July 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

Converged Rural Broadband Limited state that they’ve yet to hear from GoFibre.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
