Compared across networks
We check Openreach through seven providers, plus Virgin Media, Commsworld, ITS and our own fibre.
Dedicated fibre internet for your business
A leased line gives your premises its own fibre connection, with the same speed up and down and a repair target measured in hours, not days. We compare the networks that reach your site and recommend the one that fits.
- From £150 + VAT per month
- 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps, symmetrical
- Engineer on call for faults
The same speed both ways
Dedicated bandwidth for cloud systems, hosted phones, video calls and large uploads, without sharing.
Help when it matters
An engineer is on call for leased-line faults, and our support mailbox is monitored 24/7.
Leased lines at a glance
- Price
- From £150 + VAT per month. Your exact price depends on which networks reach the building.
- Contract terms
- From 12 months
- Speeds
- 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps, symmetrical and uncontended
- Typical lead time
- 30 working days for a standard Openreach circuit, subject to survey. Wayleaves and construction can add time.
- Fault repair
- Typically a five-clock-hour target fix, so the repair clock is not limited to the working day
- Backup options
- 4G or 5G failover, a second line on a different network, or Openreach RO2 diverse routing
One quote, many networks checked
Two businesses ordering the same speed can receive very different prices, depending on which networks already reach the building. We check the options below and recommend a service on its overall merits.
- Openreach, through our own network, BT Wholesale, Virgin Media Business, Neos Networks, Vodafone, Sky and TalkTalk Business
- Virgin Media's own network
- Commsworld and ITS
- Our own fibre, where we can build or extend it to your site
How we get you connected
From address check to a live, supported circuit.
-
Check & compare
We check which networks reach your address and send a quote that sets out the full service, not just the rental.
-
Survey & order
The network surveys the route. Openreach's standard lead time is 30 working days, and we confirm a committed date after survey.
-
Install & support
Once live, we are your single point of contact, with an engineer on call for leased-line faults.
Add a backup line
One leased line is still one physical path. If even a few hours offline is too long, add a second route.
4G or 5G failover
A router with a business mobile SIM takes over automatically if the leased line fails. See how it works in our guide to unbreakable internet.
A second line on another network
A second fixed line can carry your traffic instead, as long as it does not share ducts, exchanges or power. Read our guide to true network resiliency.
Openreach RO2
Two circuits planned as a pair on separate cables, ducts and building entries wherever possible. Read what RO2 provides.
