Why Simon Chose LightSpeed 

Simon has lived in Werrington since 2015 and, like many, had been stuck with slow, expensive broadband for too long. When he first learnt about LightSpeed, the decision to switch was easy. 

Compared to his previous Virgin Media contract, LightSpeed saved him around £250 over two years while delivering eight times the speed. With his background in IT, Simon knew the real differentiator was our connection. Unlike most providers, LightSpeed deliver gigabit speeds in both directions making video calls, large file transfers, and remote working a breeze. 

Powering a Fully Connected Home 

For Simon, a great connection was everything. As someone that works from home full time, having a reliable connection for video calls, meetings and large file transfers was essential. With 26 devices hooked up at any given time, his broadband needed to go far beyond just streaming and browsing. Whether it was mobile phones and laptops, or security gadgets and smart home tech, everything in Simon’s house depended on a fast, reliable connection. 

During the day, Simon’s internet is his lifeline for work. Evenings are for unwinding, whether that’s streaming on Netflix, or catching up online. In his words, “a reliable internet connection is critical.” and we’re so happy to see him connected!  

Werrington, What’s Next? 

Simon is the first LightSpeed broadband customer in Werrington, but he won’t be the last. Approximately 2,000 home and businesses will benefit from gigabit broadband speeds in Werrington. Meaning more homes will finally have access to better speeds, better prices, and a provider that puts customers first.
