Connect Fibre expands its Essex full fibre broadband network to Rayleigh & Thundersley.

Press Releases

Connect Fibre has announced Rayleigh and Thundersley as the latest locations to join its full fibre broadband network. As part of the company's mission to provide under-served communities with the broadband they deserve, speeds of up to 1000Mbps and advanced Wi-Fi 6 technology will be available to residents and businesses in the area.

5,000 Rayleigh and Thundersley premises can now pre-order, a figure that will increase over the course of the year as work progresses in the area. Those who pre-order will receive an early-bird discount of up to 20%1.

Across Essex, Connect Fibre’s network now includes Hockley, where resident installations are underway, and both Hadleigh and South Woodham Ferrers, where residents are due to be connected in the Spring. 

Connect Fibre is committed to providing faster broadband at a fairer price, with no hidden fees or in-contract price increases. For the second year running, prices have not been increased, further exemplifying this fairer ethos.

To ensure residents receive optimal Wi-Fi 6 coverage and guaranteed speeds, Connect Fibre’s experts provide a comprehensive pre-installation and Wi-Fi survey before carrying out the installation for free. With their Excellent2 Trustpilot rating, the company has a proven track record of providing exceptional service, from the early construction stage through to installing and nurturing their valued customers.


As a community-focused broadband provider, an increased presence is expected to be felt in the area. They have pledged to support the local community beyond just providing hyperfast connectivity, in also having a physical presence to interact with their customers face-to-face, and through sponsoring local community groups and events.

 

Connect Fibre’s Chief Executive Officer, Stefan Stanislawski, said:

“We are thrilled to welcome Rayleigh and Thundersley as the latest locations in Essex to join our rapidly expanding network. With our hyperfast speeds, advanced technology, early bird discounts and outstanding customer service, we’re looking forward to bringing faster, fairer, flawless full fibre broadband to homes and businesses in the local area. 

The modern-day family household needs reliable broadband for everything including working, education and unwinding. Today, great broadband is a necessity, not a privilege. We’re delighted to be connecting Rayleigh and Thundersley with the connectivity that they both need and deserve.”
