Communications provider and UK network builder Exascale, which has deployed their own gigabit speed Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network to a few thousand premises in part of Telford and Wrekin, has quietly launched a more consumer focused broadband brand that will sell packages via several fibre networks.
The change means that Exascale’s main website has recently switched its focus to sell residential broadband packages, while business and wholesale connections have been separated into their own section. Previously there wasn’t much distinction and the ISP largely adopted more of an overall focus on business connectivity, despite selling some consumer-grade broadband packages.
At present the consumer pricing on their website still only reflects their own-built full fibre (on-net) network. This is priced from £25.99 per month on a 24-month term for symmetric speeds of 50Mbps (inc. free installation, WiFi 6 mesh router and unlimited usage), which rises to £48.99 per month for their top 1000Mbps package. But as above, the coverage of their on-net fibre is very limited.
The good news is that Exascale’s consumer broadband service will shortly be expanded to include packages on several additional full fibre networks, including Openreach, CityFibre (following a recent agreement) and Gigaclear. The online order journey and pricing (yet to be finalised) for these should go live sometime during January 2026, but Exascale hasn’t yet confirmed an exact date to ISPreview.
