Gigaclear builds full fibre in rural England, in villages and hamlets that the big networks reached late or not at all. It covers 26 counties, much of it through government-funded Project Gigabit contracts, and on its packages the upload speed is the same as the download speed.
For many rural homes, Gigaclear is the first fast, reliable connection they have had. Its new-customer prices are competitive, but the standard price after the contract is very high, so plan to renew or switch when the term ends.
Our simple pick: Gigaclear’s 900Mb package. When checked, it cost little more than the 300Mb package, had no activation fee and came with a gift card and mesh Wi-Fi.
