The first 5,000 homes and businesses can now connect to Openreach’s full fibre network in Perth, through the Scottish Government’s Reaching 100% programme.
Altnet Grain has added Sunderland, South Shields and the Lincolnshire town of Cleethorpes to its full fibre rollout.
Tracy Karam, Head of CX said: "Our service has become even more popular in recent months, as customers rely more and more on a fast, reliable and secure network for working, learning, gaming, and entertainment."
Grain recently secured £75m funding from Equitix to speed up its full fibre rollout.
