The operator is currently also working alongside the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.gg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">States of Guernsey<\/a> on a joint <strong>\u00a337.5m<\/strong> project to build a new <strong>Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a>) network across the whole of Guernsey (30,000 premises) by the end of 2026 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2023\/05\/guernsey-isp-sure-extend-1gb-fttp-broadband-to-9000-homes.html\">here<\/a>), which has already covered 9,000 premises and rising.<\/p>\n<p>Residential packages on the new network, from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guernseyfibre.gg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sure<\/a>, start at \u00a346 per month for a basic 50Mbps plan, which rises to \u00a362 for 150Mbps, \u00a3106 for 1Gbps and \u00a3213 for 2Gbps. Suffice to say, it\u2019s not particularly cheap compared with the wider UK market, but then competition and limited subsea capacity links remain an issue.<\/p>\n<p>However, in May 2023 the GCRA provisionally concluded a new assessment of broadband pricing at the wholesale level (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2023\/05\/guernsey-regulator-orders-broadband-price-cuts-of-11.html\">here<\/a>), which found that the average level of Sure\u2019s wholesale broadband prices was still higher than the efficient level of its costs. In response, the regulator proposed that wholesale broadband charges should be lowered by 11% on average to create a \u201c<em>better deal for end-users while ensuring profits are reasonable<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>What&#8217;s Changed in the Final Decision?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>According to the regulator&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gcra.gg\/media\/n1odntfg\/final-decision-wholesale-broadband-pricing-non-confidential.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">final statement<\/a> on the matter, the original figure of 11% overlooked something very important that was &#8220;<em>later brought to its attention &#8230; that additional line rental revenue to <\/em><em>Sure that was necessary for broadband retailers to deliver internet access to their customers was not fully accounted for in that initial assessment<\/em>.&#8221; After including the line rental revenue, the average reduction in those charges was greater.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>GCRA&#8217;s Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The GCRA has decided in this Final Decision to set the average charge for Sure\u2019s wholesale broadband in the relevant market at \u00a326.40\/month over the 2024-2028 price control period, which equates to a 31% reduction. The pricing structure as set out in Section 7 of this document will be applied from 1 April 2024 to end December 2028.<\/p>\n<p>The estimated reduction in Sure\u2019s wholesale broadband revenues for the first full year of the price control in 2025 is \u00a32.9million, (a reduction from Sure\u2019s 2023 revenues of \u00a311.1 million to projected revenues of \u00a38.2 million for 2025). If these price reductions were passed on to retail customers, they would see an average annual saving in 2025 of \u00a3116.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite the reduction in charges, the GCRA claims to have ensured that Sure can fund its ongoing full fibre investment (upgrade) programme and earn a reasonable return. The GCRA conducted an extensive review, accounting for Sure\u2019s costs and revenues in the coming years as it rolls out the fibre network. &#8220;<em>This was done to ensure that the reduction in charges still enables Sure to recover its efficient costs and does not undermine Sure&#8217;s ability to finance its fibre network roll-out<\/em>,&#8221; said the regulator.
