I welcome the news that Zzoomm Full Fibre broadband has come to Thirsk. This means Thirsk residents and businesses will be connected directly by fibre optic cables giving fast and reliable broadband speeds at affordable prices. I met with Nicholas West, PIA Build Manager, last week to see the first completed cabinet installation.
Fast and reliable internet is crucial for my constituents, whether at home or running businesses. The best way of improving service and driving down prices for consumers is more competition, so I really welcome Zzoomm moving into this space and providing more opportunities for faster broadband for the people of Thirsk.
Given the sharp increase in people working from home, Zzoomm has highlighted the critical need for fast, reliable broadband. Unlike traditional broadband with old copper wires, fibre-optic cables will be delivered into homes giving broadband speeds from 100Mbps to 10,000Mbps. Prices start at £29 per month and for those wanting to switch, there is support available locally in Thirsk.
As Thirsk pivots to a new business as usual model, Zzoomm’s Full Fibre network will enable local businesses – which range from all the great independent shops in the marketplace to the Golden Fleece Hotel – to connect at faster speeds than ever before, opening up opportunities for retail, delivery and future investment for business expansion.
