Quick speed and fast service
Quick internet speed and a fast response whenever an issue occurs.
Super fast and super reliable…
Super fast and super reliable broadband. I've been with B4RN for several years having helped to dig in the fibre ducting for our village. The day we moved from our 2Mbps BT connection, to a 1Gbps connection with B4RN was a revelation. The B4RN team are very helpful too.
Everything has been exactly as…
Everything has been exactly as advertised and promised. The speeds have never faltered from the top rate @ the router. My internal wifi has, as a result of the higher speeds previously experienced from other suppliers, has been much better, faster and more reliable through my internal booster system. We receive updates on any planned outages which are adheared to in terms of time etc. Price has only risen slightly since our installation. The service and assistance from the office and the local support group has been beyond first class. I would most certainky recommend B4RN to anyone who is looking at the potential switch from other providers. All in all, highly recommended.

B4RN the service for rural communities
B4RN has brought ultra-fast broadband to rural areas ignored by the large broadband providers.I have experienced no unscheduled loss of service in the 7+yrs that the service has been available. Locally when a farmer has inadvertantly damaged the cable B4RN engineers have sorted the problem out within hours rather than the days and weeks that the large providers take. B4RN is vital for rural communities.

Very responsive to queries with a real person in the UK who knows what thy are talking about. Reliable and quick broadband.
Real people at the end of a phone!!!!
Exceptional service from an ISP
Brilliant service from an ISP that has directly responded to specific requests from me to adapt its service to meet my needs with personal technical support, all for free. The synchronous upload/download @1Gbps for the price is in my knowledge unmatched.B4RN does however need to remind customers in its service area of the unique form of its package if it is not to lose out to competing offers just on price; not all fibre is equal.
B4RN Is The Gold Standard In Superfast Broadband
From the very start with working within the neighbourhood to get vouchers through to the first switch on, B4RN has been supportive, encouraging and professional. Through the build, Team B4RN worked swiftly and tidily, causing very little disruption even when roads and footpaths had to be utilised for the fibre feed, unlike Fibrus which is chaos personified. Since the switch on, the service has run faultlessly. The one hiccough was when a neighbour, whose land our fibre ran via a way leave, put a spade through the fibre planting a tree. B4RN was out within 24 hours to replace and connect. Stunning service. B4RN is the gold standard in full, fast fibre installation.
