No One started operations in November 2020 with clearly stated goals: first, to provide better broadband than the ******* players, and second, to deliver the best customer service possible.

It decided to focus on delivering CityFibre-based full-fibre broadband packages, and over the past three years, having started its first service in the Worthing area in 2021, it has since gone nationwide and grown to deliver residential broadband to almost 3,000 customers.

Link Broadband said it is committed to making the internet simple for all clients to connect across both its network and a National Network. Its vision is to lead the market with services that harness the potential of the internet and then differentiate with customer service.

“All customers joining the TAL group service will receive 24/7 customer support, which has received over 10,000 reviews on Trustpilot with an ‘Excellent’ rating of 4.5 stars,” said Barnett. “We are also very proud to hold ISO27001 and ISO9001 accreditation, fully ***-based and award-winning billing and the unique ability to provide nationwide broadband coverage.”

 (Lit) from Newlight Partners.

CityFibre regards Lit as having a “significant and complementary” network footprint that has been deployed to a high standard and uses compatible 10Gbps XGS-PON network architecture that it’s been rolling out across the *** since 2023. These attributes, it said, will help accelerate the speed at which it’s able to integrate Lit’s network and make it available to partners, while proving its ability to maintain the current service levels it provides its customers.
