Top 10 Reasons to Switch to Lightning Fibre Full Fibre Broadband

If you’re looking for the fastest, most reliable broadband in Eastbourne, Hastings, Brighton and surrounding areas, Lightning Fibre has you covered. As a dedicated local full fibre network operator, full fibre wholesaler and internet service provider, we offer compelling reasons to switch your broadband today.

Whether you’re tired of slow speeds, frequent outages, or poor customer service from your current ISP, Lightning Fibre’s full fibre, reliable network is ready to transform your online experience.

Our Top 10 Reasons to Switch to Lightning Fibre Broadband

1.Lightning Fast Speeds

Experience hyper-fast symmetric broadband with download and upload speeds ranging from 100 Mbps up to 10 Gbps. Because our network is 100% full fibre (FTTP/FTTH) — no copper wires — you get reliable, consistent speeds directly to your home or business. Plus, our network is fully future-proofed, meaning upgrades to even faster speeds are possible without any rewiring.

2.Rock-Solid Reliability

Unlike traditional copper-based broadband, fibreoptic cables are far less affected by weather, electrical interference, or distance. Fibre supports over 1,000 times the bandwidth of copper and can carry signals over 100 times further without signal loss. This means fewer dropouts and consistent performance, ideal for gamers, streamers, and remote workers who need low latency and minimal jitter.

3.Proudly Local

Lightning Fibre is Eastbourne-born and East Sussex-based, with local teams delivering every part of the service—from installation to support. We reinvest in our community by hiring local staff and using local suppliers, keeping your broadband and your economy connected.

4.Transparent Pricing with No Hidden Costs

Say goodbye to surprise price hikes. Our prices stay fixed throughout your contract. Residential broadband starts at just £22 per month incl VAT and business broadband from £29 per month plus VAT. Plus, if you move outside our coverage area, you can cancel with no early termination penalties. 

5.Environmentally Friendly

Full fibre broadband can significantly reduce carbon emissions by enabling low-carbon technologies across sectors like transport, energy, and education. Independent studies show that fibre optic networks use up to 88% less greenhouse gas emissions per 1 Gbps compared to other broadband technologies.

6.Boosting the Local Economy

Our ultra-fast broadband attracts new businesses and remote workers, creating local jobs and generating additional council revenue to support community services. The improved connectivity also makes Eastbourne and Hastings more attractive to homebuyers, contributing to a 15% increase in relocations from London to East Sussex in recent years.

7.Exceptional Customer Satisfaction

Our customers consistently rate Lightning Fibre “Excellent” on Trustpilot, reflecting our commitment to outstanding customer service. As a local ISP, we rely on word-of-mouth and treat every customer like family.

8.Creating Local Jobs

The infrastructure upgrade led by Lightning Fibre is one of the largest in a generation, investing tens of millions into local construction, installation, administration, and support roles. Choosing Lightning Fibre means you’re supporting local employment and skills development.

9.Supporting Local Causes

We actively sponsor local events and good causes, and are proud members of the Eastbourne, Worthing, Hastings, Hailsham, and Heathfield Chambers of Commerce. Through these partnerships, we help foster a thriving business community, further strengthening the area we serve.

10.Increase Your Property Value

Fast broadband is now a must-have for homebuyers. Studies show that over 54% of buyers would reject a property without the desired broadband speed, and many are willing to pay a premium for homes with full fibre connectivity. Installing Lightning Fibre could help boost your home’s market value and appeal.
