Hi all. Happy new year.
Looking at possibly changing internet provider in 2026.
Would love to know if anyone here in London, specifically North East London, has switched to Community Fibre from Virgin. If so, would you recommend?.

Not in London (I can only dream of the broadband options there - not that I spend a lot of time dreaming about broadband options. It’s mostly exams and houses, with the occasional green furry monster) but I lurk in a professional group that has many techie types there, and I saw a conversation about switching recently - they only had good things to say about Community Fibre (rock solid was one comment). Not sure how it works differently to other providers but just in case that helps!

Hi, I’m in South East London and have recently switched from Virgin media to Community Fibre. Great decision. Faster speeds (by a country mile), less problems and, cheaper. Can’t go wrong 👍🏻

I do recommend Community Fibre as where I live in a block of flats in South London, I’ve been alternating between them and Hyperoptic as they’re the cheapest and most reliable of FTTH providers I’ve found over the past few years since Covid. Hope this helps.

Welcome @Excalibur - that’s really helpful to have your perspective. We’ve had a couple of members with issues around connection in blocks of flats so it’s good to hear Community Fibre and Hyperoptic are getting things right for you!
