The combined alternative <strong>Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a>) broadband network of both operators is said to cover a total footprint of 419,000 UK premises (RFS) across the North West, West Midlands, South West and East of England, while connecting over 73,000 customers. But until now the two networks haven&#8217;t yet been physically integrated together for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/truespeed\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Truespeed<\/a>&#8217;s retail customers to access (network integration is a long and complex process).<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> The FreedomTruespeed Group is backed by investment partners Aviva Investors, InfraBridge, and Equitix. The merger saw <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/freedomfibre\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Freedom Fibre<\/a> continue as the group\u2019s wholesale network, working with its established partners, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/truespeed\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Truespeed<\/a> and LilaConnect remain as customer-facing retail ISP brands.<\/div>\n<p>Over the past few months the newly created group has been busy working to integrate their systems, processes and teams, which also included a customer migration onto one system stack. The good news is that this phase of the integration has largely completed, so they&#8217;ve now moved on to tackle the physical network.<\/p>\n<p>As such today&#8217;s news extends Truespeed\u2019s customer propositions into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/freedomfibre\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Freedom Fibre<\/a>\u2019s wholesale network in the North West and West Midlands regions for the first time (i.e. customers can now order broadband packages in part of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/freedomfibre\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Freedom Fibre<\/a>&#8217;s network area), which &#8220;<em>marks completion of the first phase of integration with Freedom Fibre, delivered just three months after the merger closed in May<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Nathan Vautier, CEO of Freedom Truespeed Group, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Three months ago, we set out to prove that Freedom Truespeed Group could quickly bring two complementary businesses together while maintaining trading momentum, delivering efficiencies and realising commercial benefit by opening the combined network footprint with cross-brand access.
