Our verdict

toob suits UK households that want full fibre with uploads matching downloads, and it sits 5 of 36 brands on the monthly price kept after the term ends. The trade-off is the annual increase each April, so the later bill sits well above the opening figure.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Setup is free, and toob sits 1 of 86 on the setup fee ranking.
  • Upload speed of 2,300 Mbps puts toob at 10 of 46 on the upload table.
  • Once the term ends, bills of £26 to £37 place toob at 5 of 36 brands.
  • A Linksys Wi-Fi 7 router included is part of the package, so there is nothing extra to plug in when the service starts.

Cons

  • The £18 entry is introductory: the terms add an annual increase each April, so the later bill is higher.
  • Coverage is GB only, and the service runs on fttp, so a full fibre build has to reach your address.
  • Early termination charges apply, worked out as the monthly fee less a set amount for each remaining full month.
  • Top speed of 2,300 Mbps sits below Abissnet at 10,000 Mbps.

Scored 9.4 / 10 by TariffCue.

Who it suits

  • Households in the UK on a full fibre line that want uploads as quick as downloads, at 2,300 Mbps.
  • Anyone who wants a static IP and a Linksys Wi-Fi 7 router included without buying extra kit.
  • Households that qualify for the social tariff.

Who should look elsewhere

  • People outside GB: EarthLink lists 5G and satellite as well as fibre: fttp, 5G and satellite.
  • Buyers chasing the highest headline speed: Abissnet is listed at 10,000 Mbps against 2,300 Mbps here.
  • Shoppers who want cable in the mix: Astound lists it alongside fibre: cable and fttp.

Where it sits among rivals

On max download speed, toob sits 32 of 114 brands, and on upload speed 10 of 46. Entry price ranks 29 of 95, while the post contract price ranks 5 of 36. Setup is the strong point, at 1 of 86.

What it does well

Speeds reach 2,300 Mbps down and 2,300 Mbps up, so the return path is as quick as the outbound one. A static IP is available for home servers, remote access and cameras. A social tariff covers households that qualify for support, alongside the standard plans.

Pricing

The entry plan is the cheapest of the range at £18 a month, and the setup fee is £0. Once the initial term ends, every plan in the range moves to £26 to £37 a month, a clear step up from the opening figure, so budget for the renewal rate rather than the headline.

Frequently asked questions

What does toob cost to get started?+

The entry plan starts at £18 a month, and the setup fee is £0, so nothing is added to the opening invoice. Available contract lengths are 1, 12 and 24 months, so a short term and a long one both sit on the same list.

What will I pay once the contract ends?+

After the initial term the monthly bill moves to £26 to £37, depending on the plan you pick. That places toob at 5 of 36 brands on the price you keep, among the stronger positions on this measure. Ask for the renewal rate in writing before you sign.

Does the price go up each year?+

Yes. The published terms include an annual increase each April from the point the plan starts, so the £18 entry is the opening figure rather than the long term one. Budget for £26 to £37 as the realistic range once the term ends and treat anything below it as introductory.

How fast is the connection?+

Downloads reach 2,300 Mbps and uploads 2,300 Mbps, so uploads are not held well below downloads. That matters for video calls, backups and large cloud transfers. On upload speed toob ranks 10 of 46 brands.

Is a router included?+

Yes, a Linksys Wi-Fi 7 router included comes with the service, so there is no separate box to buy when the line goes live. The connection runs over fttp, the standard full fibre build, which keeps the wired speed available to a home network rather than relying on a single wireless link.

Where does toob run?+

toob operates in the United Kingdom, on fttp lines. Coverage therefore depends on a full fibre build reaching your home, so check the address before committing to a term. If you want a choice of access types, cable and fttp lists cable alongside fibre and fttp, 5G and satellite adds mobile and satellite.

Is there a social tariff?+

Yes, toob offers a social tariff for households that qualify, and it runs on the same fttp network as the standard plans rather than a different line type. Check the eligibility terms for your own circumstances before you order, since the qualifying rules sit with the tariff itself.

Can I get a static IP?+

A static IP is one of the extras toob lists, which matters if you run a home server, remote access or cameras that need a fixed address. It sits alongside the standard fttp plans rather than in place of them. Ask about it at order time so you know whether it carries an extra cost.

What happens if I leave early?+

Leaving before the term ends triggers an early termination charge. The published formula is the monthly fee less a set amount for each remaining full month, so the bill is not a fixed lump sum. Weigh it against the £26 to £37 you would pay once the contract runs its course.

How do I get help?+

Help is available by phone, chat and help centre, so you can call, start a live chat or read the help centre. Support runs on those channels only, with no walk-in option listed. Keeping your order reference and line details to hand will shorten a call.
