Pros and cons

Pros

  • Setup is free: the setup fee is £0, so nothing is added to the first bill.
  • Upload matches download at 1,000 Mbps, and ranks 16 of 46 brands on the data here.
  • A social tariff is available for households on a low income, alongside the standard range.
  • A Wi-Fi mesh router is included, standard or advanced depending on the package.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre, covering phone, email and a help centre.

Cons

  • Minimum terms of 12 and 24 months come with an early termination fee worked out on the remaining months at the monthly fibre cost.
  • Rental prices rise by a set amount each December on every fibre package, and step up again once the minimum period ends.
  • GoFibre covers a single market, GB, so households outside its build areas get nothing to compare.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, with no live chat option.

Who it suits

  • Households inside GoFibre's UK build areas that want full fibre to the property and no connection charge.
  • People on a low income who can use the social tariff.
  • Work from home households that send as much as they receive, given top upload of 1,000 Mbps.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Anyone outside the UK build area, who would do better weighing EarthLink, listed on fttp, 5G and satellite for other connection types.
  • Households wanting more headroom than 1,000 Mbps, where Abissnet lists 10,000 Mbps.
  • Buyers who want cable alongside full fibre, since Astound lists cable and fttp.

How it compares on our data

GoFibre sits around the middle of the tables on speed and entry price, higher up on upload, and at the top on setup cost. On top download it ranks 49 of 114 brands, and on starting price 46 of 95. Upload is the stronger of the two speed figures at 16 of 46. Setup is the outlier: 1 of 86, the only one of the four where GoFibre sits at the top.

Plans and prices

GoFibre sells full fibre packages in a single market, GB, from an entry package up to GoFibre MAX at the top of the range. Advertised entry pricing starts at £22.50 a month, and the setup fee is £0, so there is no connection charge on top of the rental. Packages are sold on a minimum term rather than a rolling month, and the figure above is the entry price rather than the price you keep once the minimum period is over. That renewal step is the number to weigh before committing.

The company behind it

GoFibre Broadband Limited, trading as GoFibre, is the legal entity behind the service, registered in England and headquartered in the United Kingdom. Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so phone, email and a self service help centre are all covered. The same company sets the minimum term, the exit fee calculation and the annual rental rise, so the terms behind the headline price sit with one provider.

Frequently asked questions

What does GoFibre broadband cost to begin with?+

Entry pricing starts at £22.50 a month and the setup fee is £0, so the first bill is the monthly rental and nothing else. Packages climb in price and speed through the range, ending with GoFibre MAX. Every package is sold on a minimum term of 12 and 24 months rather than a rolling month.

Will the monthly price rise after the minimum period?+

Expect a rise on both counts. Rental goes up once a year in December across the fibre packages, and there is a further jump in the monthly charge once the minimum term ends. That makes the £22.50 a month entry figure a starting point rather than the price you hold onto for the length of the term.

Is there a setup fee or installation charge?+

The setup fee is £0, so there is no connection charge to pay on top of the rental. Equipment comes as part of the package: a standard or advanced Wi-Fi mesh router is included, and which one arrives depends on the package you take.

What speeds does GoFibre offer, and is the upload the same?+

GoFibre runs full fibre to the premises on fttp. Top download is 1,000 Mbps and top upload is 1,000 Mbps, so the upper package is symmetrical rather than weighted to downloads. Lower packages in the range give up some of that speed for a lower monthly cost.

How long is the contract, and what happens if I cancel early?+

Minimum terms run 12 and 24 months. Cancel before the end and an early termination fee applies, worked out on the remaining months of the term at the monthly fibre cost, including any promotional offer, less a fixed monthly saving treated as a non service saving. Cancellation also needs a period of notice in advance.

Where does GoFibre offer broadband?+

GoFibre sells in a single market, GB, and the company is headquartered in the United Kingdom. Availability therefore comes down to whether the build has reached your street, so the address is the first thing to check before prices are worth comparing. Addresses outside the areas on its list cannot order it.

Is there a social tariff for households on a low income?+

A social tariff is available alongside the standard range, so households on a low income can ask for the reduced tariff when they order rather than after. The standard range starts at £22.50 a month, and the social tariff is worth confirming against the packages available in your area.

How do I get help from GoFibre?+

Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so you can reach the team by phone, by email or through the help centre. There is no live chat option in that set, which makes phone the quicker route for anything urgent, and the help centre covers the routine questions.
