More choice for broadband customers as Rebel Internet joins CityFibre’s ultrafast network
Fast-growing broadband provider Rebel Internet has teamed up with CityFibre to offer new full-fibre broadband packages on the UK’s second-largest fibre network.
The move means Rebel can now reach around 23 million premises nationwide by combining CityFibre’s 4.6 million-home network with its existing coverage on Openreach’s national infrastructure.
New full-fibre plans
Customers on CityFibre’s network can now choose between two new symmetrical (same upload and download speed) packages:
- Rebel 550 Mbps
- Rebel 1 Gbps
All plans come with:
- Wi-Fi 6 router as standard
- Choice of 24-, 12-, or 1-month rolling contracts
- Fixed-price guarantee – no mid-contract rises
- Access to Rebel’s Home Wi-Fi app to manage devices and boost signal strength
Optional extras include SuperPods (£5 per month) to extend Wi-Fi coverage, Home Phone with unlimited UK calls (£10 per month), and a Static IP address (£2.50 per month).
Why it matters
This new partnership gives broadband customers more full-fibre options beyond Openreach, offering faster and more reliable connections through CityFibre’s expanding 5.5 Gbps-capable network.
Rebel’s no mid-contract price rise promise and shorter contract options could appeal to households wanting flexibility without the shock of yearly increases.
What Rebel says
Tucker George, CEO and co-founder of Rebel, said:
“We’re thrilled to announce this new partnership, which allows us to provide full-fibre broadband to even more people nationwide. CityFibre’s growing full-fibre network lets us bring customers faster, more reliable broadband – and we’re excited to accelerate our rapid growth with this partnership.”
What is CityFibre?
CityFibre is the UK’s largest independent full-fibre network operator, building ultra-fast broadband infrastructure that rivals Openreach. Its network already passes 4.6 million homes (4.3 million ready-for-service) across towns and cities, with speeds up to 5.5 Gbps.
CityFibre doesn’t sell broadband directly to consumers – instead, it works with ISPs like Rebel, Vodafone, Lit and 4th Utility to deliver services over its network.
