Unlimited ambition

With a laser focus on providing world-class connectivity to hard to reach rural areas, and complex and historical cities, Truespeed uses innovative deployment techniques to bring gigabit capable broadband to the South West. Tackling the digital divide by building an entirely new, ultrafast, full fibre network, Truespeed delivers some of the fastest broadband speeds in the world.   

Unlimited innovation

A true challenger to the broadband industry’s norm, from the get-go Truespeed was designed with the future in mind. A dynamic network that has the capability of delivering up to 10Gbps speeds, the fibre to the property service is a unique connectivity solution. 

All with the flick of a switch, we can remotely increase the speeds that flow directly into properties. The South West now has a lifetime of reliable connectivity right on its doorstep, and thanks to the innovative infrastructure, a new era of prosperity is being ushered in as the region enters the digital fast lane. 

Unlimited potential

Truespeed’s contention-free, Active Ethernet infrastructure has been gigabit-capable from day one. We guarantee symmetrical, minimum 200Mbps upload and download speeds as standard at an affordable price. We also offer up to 1Gbps to businesses who need it; and have the capability to deliver up to 10Gpbs speeds – so no matter what the digital future holds, we have all your connectivity needs covered.

Unlimited talent

Civil, installation, technical development and network engineers, strategic network planning, operational and delivery managers, sales and marketing personnel, software developers, technical and customer support operatives, administration and finance personnel.

Founded from a simple idea of wanting to help people struggling with poor connectivity in 2014, Truespeed started rolling out its network and gained a £75million investment from Aviva in 2017. Since then we’ve connected over 100 communities and have brought life changing broadband to thousands of people.

Bath Community

Founded on a community focused ethos, people are at the heart of everything we do and we aim to support people and businesses in any way we can.

  • Investing in education - we supply free broadband for life, to every school passed by our network. We give children the opportunity the properly utilise the world wide web for learning, and by providing the service free of charge, it allows vital funding to be re-invested elsewhere into the curriculum. 

  • Investing in communities – we also supply free broadband for life community hub. Whether it’s a village hall, library or sports centre, we’re committed to providing community hubs with ultrafast broadband so entire communities can benefit from the service for generations to come.

How does Bath influence your work? 

  • Bath is a business and cultural hub, yet it’s plagued with unreliable connectivity. Putting its multitude of talented people and innovative organisations at a disadvantage professionally and personally. Helping communities suffering with poor connectivity is our bread and butter, so our sights are firmly set on levelling Bath’s digital playing field and bringing the historic city into the ultrafast era. 

  • Our main server operates from Newton St Loe, and our network and customer base stems out from there. We wanted our headquarters to be in Bath so we’re in close proximity to our customers, technical hub and network so we can continue to deliver the local service we’re so proud of.

  • With over 135 team members, we needed headquarters that had great transport links and plenty of space. We’re a social bunch, so with great places for lunch, post work drinks and venues to host our summer and Christmas parties right on our doorstep, moving to Bath was a no brainer.
