A lesser-known broadband provider has undercut major competitors like Sky and Virgin Media by offering cheaper full-fibre packages to residents in a specific city. The limited-time promotion comes from Community Fibre, which has just launched a deal giving new customers 25% off fibre broadband.
Deal Details and Pricing
Running until 3rd June, the company's most budget-friendly 100Mbps broadband is available at £17.10 monthly (down from £19), working out at approximately 55p daily across a 31-day month. Meanwhile, those seeking lightning-quick connections can access reductions on significantly faster packages, including 5Gbps premium broadband at £47.25 (reduced from £63).
Additional offers in the limited-time sale feature 300Mbps for £18.90 (previously £21), 500Mbps for £20.70 (previously £23) and 1Gbps for £22.50 (previously £25). The provider claims its speeds reach up to 72 times faster than the national average download speed and 272 times faster than the national average upload speed.
Eligibility and Catch
There is a catch, however, as Community Fibre exclusively serves London and certain southeastern locations. Prospective customers can utilise the Community Fibre postcode checker to determine their eligibility for these offers.
Those who qualify can secure substantial savings versus competing brands, with Community Fibre asserting that subscribers to its 2.5Gbps Full Fibre Broadband package could save £280 compared to Virgin Media's Gig2 product. It also beats major providers such as Sky, which currently advertises 100Mbps Full Fibre Broadband at its 'lowest ever price' of £24 – that's £6.90 more than Community Fibre.
Contract and Additional Benefits
Those who take advantage of Community Fibre's limited-time offer will enjoy fixed pricing until 2027, eliminating concerns about unexpected price increases. The provider has guaranteed that monthly charges will stay unchanged until April 2027, when they'll rise by £3. This will then increase to £4 once the 24-month contract period concludes.
Community Fibre doesn't charge installation fees for its full fibre packages and includes a router at no extra cost, while subscribers to the premium-tier plans receive a cutting-edge WiFi 7 router. The company has also joined the One Touch Switch initiative, enabling customers to transfer services without needing to contact their existing provider.
Customer Reviews and Reputation
While it may lack the recognition of household names such as Sky or Virgin, Community Fibre has earned an impressive 4.7-star Trustpilot rating based on over 87,000 reviews. Of these, 90% of customers gave it a perfect five-star rating.
One enthusiastic review states: "Had a great experience with Community Fibre from start to finish. The installation was quick, clean, and hassle-free, and the team were very informative throughout the process. The speeds I'm getting are steady and extremely fast, exactly what I was hoping for."
Another notes: "The installation team turned up on time, were quick, clean and friendly, and everything worked immediately. Since then, the broadband has been quick and reliable." While one customer expressed satisfaction with their Community Fibre broadband speeds, they did flag a drawback, commenting: "Internet is generally very fast, though the app is terrible and doesn't work."
Another five-star reviewer was equally enthusiastic, stating: "Been 100% reliable for the last two years. Always equal or over 800Mb/s. Wouldn't use anybody else. Installation fast and efficient."
