It’s time to plug yourself into the CityFibre network
We are a brand new all fibre network all the way to your home - we’re building from scratch across the UK.
Designed for the digital age, our network is newer, faster, smoother, more reliable. And it can be up to £180 a year cheaper than your regular broadband.* It’s Full on Fibre.
Using the latest technology, this is a new kind of network that sets a new standard. For now and generations to come.
The catch? Well, we don’t sell broadband directly but you can connect through a range of broadband providers already using CityFibre technology in your street.
*Compared with similar broadband packages on standard fibre using copper cables. Subject to geographic availability of Full Fibre. Prices subject to change. Visit cityfibre.com/details

WHAT DOES CITYFIBRE DO?
We’re rolling out the UK’s most advanced broadband network bringing near faultless broadband to 8 million homes and businesses nationwide.
This means we are the people who build the physical network to your home – the pipes underground or the cables on telegraph poles.
We don’t sell broadband directly. We work with over 30 broadband providers, such as Vodafone, TalkTalk, Zen and Giganet, who offer a range of packages over our network.
Use our availability checker to find out which providers are delivering broadband packages in your area and find the best deal to suit you.

Millions of homes nationwide can connect to our network through one of our partnered broadband providers – the hardest part is choosing which one.
Why should I choose to switch to the cityfibre network?
Most ‘fibre’ connections aren’t what you think.
Life’s great when the things that should work just work. And at the top of the list for most of us is broadband, we can’t function without it. But for something that’s so important why are we still putting up with ‘ok’?
In the majority of homes the reality is that the ‘fibre’ only makes it as far as the end of your street, and then they’re using copper wire, just like the copper they used to make phone calls back in 1877.
At CityFibre, we’re starting from scratch and building a whole new network for the data age. Our cables extend all the way to your home and delivers a connection so reliable you won’t have to think about your broadband ever again.
Don't just take our word for it
Facts and figures aren’t always enough. We know that. Luckily, we have thousands of well-connected homes already making the most of our network. Here’s what they have to say:
