UK ISP Quickline, which is building a new gigabit-capable full fiber (FTTP) broadband network across parts of England, has announced that their network has just gone live across three new villages – Burton, Navenby and Metheringham – in rural Lincolnshire (total of over 2,000 extra premises passed).
Residential customers reached by their new full fibre network are typically charged from £29 per month on a 24-month term for 100Mbps (50Mbps upload) speeds with free installation, and that goes up to £49 for their top 900Mbps (450Mbps upload) tier. The first 3 months of service are also free.
The operator, supported by funding of around £500m from Northleaf Capital Partners, holds an aspiration to cover 500,000 premises in rural and semi-rural areas across North East England with “ultrafast broadband” via both FTTP and their 5G based fixed wireless technology “by 2025” (here). Some 300,000 of that figure are already being reached by their wireless network.
