Purefibre Internet to launch in Slough following CityFibre’s £24m Full Fibre network investment

  • Purefibre Internet (Purefibre) will offer Full Fibre internet to residential properties in Slough, where CityFibre is investing £45million in rolling out a Full Fibre network across the city
  • The first customers are expected to be connected in October this year
  • Purefibre joins a growing list of consumer ISPs to offer Full Fibre services to consumers over CityFibre’s national open access networks

CityFibre, the UK’s first national digital infrastructure platform, and Purefibre have today announced an agreement that will bring reliable, Gigabit speed broadband services to homes and businesses by joining CityFibre’s rapidly expanding national open access networks in Slough.

 

CityFibre is currently engaged in an up to £4billion Gigabit City Investment Programme and Purefibre will be the latest consumer internet service provider to join its networks.

 

Slough is among the first locations to enjoy access to Purefibre’s competitively priced 1 Gbps service, with the first customers expected to go live in December.

 

It will be among the fastest broadband services available when both downloading and uploading, transforming customers’ digital capabilities. The service will provide sufficient bandwidth to unlock the full potential of every device in the home, while providing a solid platform for smart home applications of the future.

 

The service will be delivered over Slough’s full fibre network, which CityFibre is deploying as part of a £24million private investment that will bring next-generation digital connectivity within reach of almost every home and business locally.

 

CityFibre began construction of the network in October 2020.

 

Speaking of the agreement, Stacey King, City Manager at CityFibre, said: “We are delighted to welcome Purefibre onto our Slough network, and greatly look forward to supporting their exciting Gigabit-speed home broadband service.

 

“Their reputation and quality services make them a perfect partner and we are excited about helping even more homes and businesses take advantage of the huge benefits that Full Fibre has to offer.”

 

Mark Trojacek, CEO at Purefibre, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with CityFibre in Slough. With over ten years’ experience of delivering high speed internet services over full fibre networks, our aim is to offer a simple, straightforward high-speed package with no complex contract terms and honest, competitive pricing.

 

“Slough has long been at the forefront of commercial innovation and while major businesses in the town have benefitted from access to world class services, the provision of reliable and innovative residential services has failed to keep pace.

 

“Residents in Slough can now expect a consistent internet experience backed by exceptional customer service and we look forward to welcoming new customers throughout Slough, and beyond, as the CityFibre footprint expands.”
