Foot in the Dorset! Portsmouth broadband firm rolls out its full-fibre network across the coast

toob has announced this week the launch of its broadband network in Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole.

The Portsmouth-based provider has partnered with CityFibre to run fibre optic cables directly to tens of thousands of homes across the Dorset coastline, which for many will represent a significant upgrade.

Last year’s Ofcom figures suggest that toob’s network offers 15 times faster download and 68 times faster upload speeds than the UK average.

And at a time when almost a million people have been forced to switch off their broadband in order to cope with the rising cost of living, the company is also promising affordable rates with no mid-contract price rises.

Nick Parbutt, founder and CEO of toob, said: “We are delighted to be able to offer our service to Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole.

“We believe that fast and reliable broadband is a necessity that everyone should have.

“We’re committed to delivering the fastest and most reliable service, using the latest full-fibre technology, at an affordable price.

“Customers can rely on toob to provide broadband that simply works.”

Nick recently joined toob CFO Mike Banwell in taking on a pair of extreme challenges to raise funds for local charity Solent Mind.
