Eastbourne-based alternative network builder and ISP Lightning Fibre, which has been building a new Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband network across parts of Sussex and Kent in England, has today launched a big winter sale across their various full fibre packages for homes.
The operator, which has built to a number of locations like Eastbourne, Brighton and Hove, Worthing, Lancing, Hastings and St Leonards, Heathfield, Hellingly and Broad Oak, Hailsham and Polegate, originally planned to cover 140,000 premises with their gigabit-capable network. But it remains unclear how many premises they actually reached, and they’ve since had to slow their network build due to various challenges (here and here).
The good news is that the provider has just launched a Winter Sale, which offers some fairly bit discounts. Rob Reaks, CCO, said: “This is the first time we have discounted all 24 month packages, and I am particularly pleased to see the 2Gbps package reduced to half price. It makes a residential multi-gig package more affordable for busy homes and gamers“.
Summary of Lightning Fibre’s Winter Discounts
150Mbps 24-month contract, residential customers, was £26 per month plus £48 one off set up fee. NOW £22 per month, free set up and first month FREE.
