ITS vs CityFibre altnet vs altnet.
Two challenger full-fibre networks, side by side. Telexico supplies over both ITS and CityFibre, so we recommend whichever wins at your postcode.
Providers are compared on what each publishes: list prices and the conditions attached to them, minimum terms and mid-contract rises, what the price includes (calls, set-up, porting, support hours), UK-based support, and whether failover is offered. Telexico’s own entries are our list prices. Where a provider has changed its terms since the date shown, the published source wins; tell us and we will correct it.
