Little-known fixed wireless ISP Kijoma Broadband (Kijoma Solutions), which generally covers rural parts of West Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire in England, appears to have vanished (including email and website) after appearing to suffer a service outage that started just before 9am yesterday morning.
Firstly, there’s a good chance that many of our current readers might never have heard of Kijoma, which wouldn’t be surprising as the last time we had anything to report on them was a decade ago. But despite the market’s many changes, the little provider has continued to operate, and their most recent micro company accounts show that they’re home to just two employees with £154.4k in capital and reserves (down from £174.6k in 2022)
However, Thinkbroadband reported last night that the ISP was being impacted by a service outage that started yesterday morning and is still ongoing, which they claim could possibly be due to an outage on one of the operator’s backhaul (capacity) links. The situation also appears to have taken Kijoma’s website and email offline.
At the time of writing, the provider has not issued any public service updates about the situation via their social media channels (these haven’t seen any posts for years – see on X and LinkedIn). We have attempted to contact the provider via LinkedIn for a comment and will report back if they respond.
