Tuesday, 28 June, UK: As consumers continue to feel the pinch because of the cost-of-living crisis, many broadband companies now offer social tariff deals to ensure people can stay connected online at an affordable rate. 

However, stigma and confusion around eligibility often prevent the most vulnerable customers from taking advantage of these bargain-basement deals.  

Changing the need for social tariff requirements is Community Fibre, London’s fastest and most reliable 100% full-fibre broadband provider. It is currently the only broadband provider which doesn’t ask for its customers to jump through hoops and prove eligibility to get the best value with a social tariff package. 

Whether you are on Universal Credit, state benefits or not, it believes that everyone regardless of social or economic background should have access to affordable broadband – with no questions asked. Its low-cost, award-winning social tariff offers the most affordable broadband on the market, beating BT, Virgin and Sky. 

Essential 10 Mpbs package - £12.50 per month 

A reliable internet connection is vital when searching for job opportunities, acquiring new skills, staying in touch with loved ones or tackling finances. However, not everyone has the luxury to ignore the price tag – especially those who are struggling financially but are not on state benefits.  

To provide relief to those customers, Community Fibre’s Essential 10 Mbps package is now available to all new customers, and proof of being on income support or any other state benefit is not required.  

At just £12.50 a month, it is the most affordable offer on the market. Available on a 12-month contract, the 100% full fibre connection comes with symmetrical download and upload speeds of 10 Mbps, a free-of-charge Linksys Velop WiFi 5 Mesh router, and free installation.  

If customers choose to go even faster at a late date, they can seamlessly upgrade to any of Community Fibre’s other reasonably-priced packages here.
