The cost of swapping broadband provider 

"When it comes to switching your broadband provider, it's only free to make the move at the end of your contract. Exit fees will apply if you have multiple months left on your agreement.  

At Community Fibre, there is no set-up fee and a router is included in every installation. Opt in to One Touch Switching and the process is entirely hassle and risk-free. There's no need for you to contact your current provider, as we handle everything on your behalf. Plus, your old service will only be switched off once you're fully connected with us, guaranteeing zero downtime." 

Peter Rampling, Chief Commercial Officer, Community Fibre

Switching Calls

Keep your number for free.

It's super easy to bring your number over. When placing an order you will be given the option to take a new number or keep your current number.  

It takes at least 12 working days from the date of your successful installation to transfer your current number. If you have opted in to One Touch Switching we will notify your new provider once the port is complete. If you are organising the switching yourself, at this point, don't disconnect your existing line until we have notified you that the port is complete. While you wait for your number to be ported you will be given a temporary number.

Our Calls service requires a working broadband connection and electricity to power the phone adapter. If there is a broadband failure or power cut, your Calls service will not work. In case of emergency, you must have other means of making calls, such as a mobile phone, to contact Emergency Services.

If you have a healthcare or medical alarm, you will need to check with your alarm provider that it will work with your internet connection.  

Switching broadband FAQs

If you opt in to One Touch Switching through us, we'll manage the switch for you. Your old connection will stay live until your old one is up and running. So you’ll have no gaps in service. If you’re handling the switch yourself, tell your existing provider when we’ve installed so that your old service is not cut off prematurely.   

It might not take as long as you think to change broadband provider. When you sign up for Community Fibre's award-winning service, you'll be shown available installation dates. Generally speaking, you should find a slot within two working days of when you book. And on installation day, we should have you up and running within two hours of arriving at your property  

The simple answer is yes you can. However, if you are mid-contract it's worth seeing what exit fees will be applied if you switch broadband provider by cancelling early. Compare this cost to the savings you'd be making by swapping internet provider to a cheaper deal. If you're not saving in the long run, it may be worth waiting a little while. If your existing service has been poor, you may be able to negotiate your exit fees or you might simply not be liable to pay them if your service has not met minimum expectations. You also might simply think the cost of switching to a more reliable provider is well worth it. 

If you're thinking of cancelling with your current provider and jumping on to London's fastest-moving broadband network, let us do the hard work for you. When you place an order with Community Fibre, you'll have the option to let us cancel with your current provider on your behalf – without needing to talk to them, by opting in to One Touch Switching. If you choose this option your old connection will stay live until your new one is up and running.  So you’ll have no gaps in service. Alternatively, if you want to organise the cancellation and switch yourself, you will need to call your existing provider and instruct them that you want to leave. 
 
Please note:If you cancel directly with your current provider, Community Fibre cannot be held responsible if they fail to cancel your service in a timely manner.   

When you switch broadband provider to Community Fibre, our specialist engineers will make sure that your service is fully up and running as well as connected to two devices before letting you get on with the rest of your day. If you have any issues getting online or connecting devices after that, visit our WiFi and broadband troubleshooting page. It has answers for all kinds of common queries and can also help you connect to an expert if need be. If issues persist and we can't fix them, you can cancel your service with no exit fees or hard feelings within 60 days as part of our satisfaction guarantee. 

Our engineer will position the router within the same room as the point of entry for the broadband cable. Our installation usually takes up to two hours, with four steps:  

  1. We arrive 

  1. We cable 

  1. We install 

  1. We connect 

When you make the switch to Community Fibre the installation will be seamless and stress-free. Your existing provider will only be switched off when your new service with us is live if you opt in to One Touch Switching with us.  

If you add our Calls package to your broadband purchase, you'll have the option to keep your current landline number.

If you opt for One Touch Switching, we will communicate with your existing provider on your behalf through the entire porting process. During the transfer period, you will be assigned a temporary number to be used. We will let you know when your existing number is ready for service, which will take at least 12 working days. 

If you opt to manage the switching yourself when taking out broadband and Calls and choose to keep your existing number, then it is up to you to communicate and manage switch-over timings with your old provider. 

If you're using an email-only provider like Gmail or Outlook, swapping broadband providers will not impact your account at all. If you have an email address from your existing provider, most reasonable providers will let you take it with you and if they don’t it is really easy to set up a new email address, for example Gmail or Outlook. 

If you are moving home at the same time as wanting to switch your broadband provider then you will need to cancel directly with your existing provider for the property you are leaving and agree service with your new provider at the new property you are moving into.
