Great deal, I'm in contract until August though otherwise I'd be very tempted.
Anyone getting slow uploads tonight? Only getting 400-500Mb, I’m on IDNet.

This is on Aquiss CityFibre 1000/1000 this evening. I'd have expected the upload to be slightly higher in the high 800's/low 900's.
I'm on Brsk/Youfibre rather than CityFibre, but I have noticed that speedtest.net doesn't give me a reflective, real-world score these days, if I start off a 10GB download, I can max out at 240MB/s easily but speedtest won't reflect that.![]()

Trying different hosts as KIA suggests and using the CLI gave more consistent/accurate results for me compared to the website, especially when moving to above 1 Gb/s.I have noticed that speedtest.net doesn't give me a reflective, real-world score these days
i've had some real varied speeds, even using speedtest-cli to different hosts, versus just doing a sustained transfer test myself.No matter the host?
In the event of a service fault, services with Enhanced Care will look to be cleared of a reported fault within 20 clock hours of receipt of the fault being reported, excluding any allowable parked time.
That's an excellent offer for a top totch service, if I wasn't under contract I'd be signing up right now. Fingers crossed you run it again in july.Good Morning,
Just a heads-up for CityFibre users (and lurkers) we have reintroduced our 6 month half price offer on CityFibre services. This will be available for new installs and migrations, until April 30th 2026.
Full details can be found https://www.aquiss.net/cityfibre-home-fttp-packages/
While you're here Martin, I can't figure out where your Enhanced Care offering maps onto the CityFibre product for business FTTP. Your site says:
CityFibre's spec for National (https://cdn.cityfibre.com/Partner-page/Downloads/CF-FTTP-National.pdf) says there's two care levels - standard is end of next working day, premium is 8 business hours. Your 'enhanced' seems to be better than premium as it doesn't have the weekend carve-out and 20 clock hours will nearly always be quicker than 8 business hours unless a fault goes into CityFibre bang on 9am.
@aquiss can confirm but I signed up to Aquiss on a great deal whilst under another Isp contract and asked for the switch to be deferred by a couple months which they were happy with.That's an excellent offer for a top totch service, if I wasn't under contract I'd be signing up right now.

Thanks, I was slightly confused because IDNet were telling me that over-1Gbps products weren't available yet on the Premium care level, but you offer everything up to 2.5Gbps and presumably onward to 5Gbps+ when that's released.Our Enhanced Care (our name for it) is linked to CityFibre Premium. That document looks to be a little out of date, as Saturdays are included.
