LightSpeed Broadband review: prices, speeds and coverage
Bringing full fibre to Lincolnshire and the east of England, with speeds to 5 Gbps and a fixed-price promise: no scheduled increases for the life of the contract.
How fast is LightSpeed Broadband, really?
Full fibre delivers its advertised speed regardless of your distance from the exchange, unlike the copper-based products it replaces. See FTTP vs FTTC vs cable for what the labels mean.

Price rises: what actually happens
None. Price fixed for the full contract.
No mid-contract price rises. LightSpeed Broadband locks your price for the entire contract. In a market where inflation-linked increases are standard, this is one of the strongest reasons to choose an altnet.
Unlike most big-brand contracts, altnet price terms are published plainly at signup, and we display them next to every deal. See our guide to whether altnets are safe to switch to and how switching works.
