Lightning Fibre is a full fibre broadband network operator and internet service provider (ISP) offering speeds up to 10Gbps.
We provide a broadband service directly to consumers, small businesses and property developers in the South East via Managed IT Partners and serve medium and large businesses and schools UK wide.
Lightning Fibre has invested millions, since 2018, to upgrade and future-proof the UK’s broadband infrastructure from copper to full fibre in parts of Sussex and Kent.
This implementation of direct fibre to the premises (FTTP) means that your business, or your clients’ businesses, are not impacted by the legacy copper infrastructure that is not fit for modern enterprise and consumers in the digital age. Read more about our technical network infrastructure.
As well as offering our own full fibre network for businesses and residential consumers, we also wholesale the City Fibre and Netomnia business networks nationally, delivered primarily through a network of trusted Managed IT Service Partners.
Our dedicated technical and customer support teams available 7 days a week from 8 am to 8 pm.
Further networks will be added to the Lightning Fibre Business ISP offering, providing further geographical coverage.
Our symmetric, multi-gigabit networks deliver Business Broadband speeds of up to 10Gbps (subject to regional availability).
As well as our main business broadband offering, some clients install an additional resilience line for full broadband back up.
Larger businesses, or organisations with buildings serving multiple occupants requiring high bandwidth, can have a dedicated ethernet line to achieve a private, high performance broadband connectivity (subject to availability).
In 2025 Lightning Fibre was awarded the Connected Britain award for Broadband Provider of the Year. This recognizes outstanding performance and innovation in the UK's broadband and digital ecosystem, as well as providing excellent connectivity, putting customers first and supporting local communities.
Also, in November 2025, Lightning Fibre scored a hat-trick as Best Consumer ISP:
The ISPA Best Consumer ISP Award is aimed at challenger brands offering gigabit-capable fibre services. The judging process considers overall service levels, packages, performance, customer satisfaction, value, fair pricing, and support for vulnerable customers, as well as publicly available data from sources like Ofcom and Trustpilot.
