How can YOU benefit from the new Gigabit Voucher Scheme?

By providing Gigabit-capable connectivity to your SME customers with free installation via the new voucher scheme from the Government, that’s how! Last month we announced our full support of the Government’s new £2 million Gigabit Voucher Scheme which aims to accelerate the roll out of Gigabit-capable full-fibre services to business customers by making the switch to full-fibre more affordable for SMEs, whilst also generating a massive opportunity for our channel partners.

Last month we announced our full support of the Government’s new £2 million Gigabit Voucher Scheme which aims to accelerate the roll out of Gigabit-capable full-fibre services to business customers by making the switch to full-fibre more affordable for SMEs, whilst also generating a massive opportunity for our channel partners. How does it work? As an Entanet partner, you can start taking advantage of this new scheme immediately because we are already registered and active. All you have to do is sign up to our Local Full-Fibre Network Reseller Agreement (available from synergi) then it’s just a short form to complete each time you have an eligible SME customer to register with the scheme. Simple! Where is it available? The best news of all is that the four key areas where the scheme is operational are covered by our CityFibre footprint:
  • Aberdeen
  • Bristol
  • Coventry
  • Bradford, Huddersfield and Leeds
The vouchers can be used to fund new connections that are ‘gigabit-capable’ and deliver a minimum of 100Mbps from day one. The initial scheme runs until 31 March 2019 or until the funding is consumed, with vouchers up to £3000 to cover the cost of installation. We make the vouchers work by covering the entire installation cost for customers using our GPON services and also our Ethernet 1Gbps bearer services (which offer bandwidth options ranging from 100Mbps to 1Gbps). We’ve registered these particular products with the voucher scheme and we’re fully managing the process to keep life simple for our both partners and their SME customers. To find out more about the eligibility criteria or to register your interest in the new scheme see our website. Have your say! Are you interested?
