What Jurassic Fibre does

Jurassic Fibre is a Devon-based independent UK telecommunications company, founded in 2018, that builds and operates a greenfield full-fibre (FTTP) optic broadband network serving residential consumers across the South West of England. The company positions itself against incumbents on speed ("15x faster than copper-based setups"), reliability during peak hours, and customer service, with use cases spanning streaming, gaming, video calling, and remote work. Following corporate consolidation, the business now operates under Onestream Limited trading as Cuckoo Broadband (registered in England & Wales, No. 10389581), with the Jurassic Fibre brand retired as a legacy identity and the legal registered office located at Unit 15, Fulcrum 2, Solent Way, Fareham, PO15 7FN.

The core product is a full-fibre broadband subscription delivered over owned fibre-optic infrastructure, marketed with a streamlined one-click switching process in which the provider handles all coordination with the customer's previous ISP across a 14-day migration timeline, removing what the company identifies as the dominant friction point in UK broadband switching. A dedicated in-house "Amazing switch team" supports phone-based sales and migration assistance for customers who prefer assisted channels. Headcount of 101–250 employees indicates a scale-up organisation; leadership is led by founder-CEO Michael Maltby and CIO David Doherty. No disclosures on subscribers, funded capital, or revenue were available in the source data.

The business model is a direct-to-consumer subscription service: residential customers pay recurring monthly fees for tiered full-fibre speed packages, billed through Stripe, with no visible enterprise or SMB tier. Customer acquisition is digital-first via the company website, supplemented by phone-based inside sales, and supported by standard analytics, advertising, and conversion-tracking tooling (PostHog, Google Ads, Facebook, TikTok). Pricing is described as "fairer" with a published price and charge list, but specific price points are not disclosed in the available source material, leaving the addressable ARPU and churn economics inferable only through UK altnet benchmarks rather than first-party evidence.

Direct peers

• CityFibre: UK's largest independent full-fibre platform operating FTTP networks across multiple regions. Direct competitor in the altnet fibre segment with comparable buildout-driven business model, though larger and more wholesale-oriented.
• Community Fibre: London-focused FTTP altnet offering gigabit broadband directly to residential consumers. Closely comparable in business model — own-network, D2C residential FTTP with subscription pricing — though geographically distinct.
• Hyperoptic: UK FTTP altnet providing full-fibre broadband to residential and business customers, primarily in urban MDU developments. Closely aligned product proposition, target customer and direct-to-consumer sales motion.
• Gigaclear: UK rural-focused FTTP altnet delivering full-fibre broadband to underserved communities. Comparable as a regional fibre ISP building own-network infrastructure, with a similar value proposition of speed and reliability over legacy copper.
• Zzoomm: UK altnet building full-fibre networks in smaller towns and suburbs. Direct competitor in the independent FTTP operator space with comparable D2C residential broadband model and target of suburban/rural UK markets.
• Trooli: Kent-based UK altnet deploying FTTP broadband to residential customers in the South East. Geographic and operational peer — independent FTTP network with direct-to-consumer residential focus, comparable scale and stage.

Broad incumbents

• BT Group (Openreach): Dominant UK fixed-line incumbent operating the Openreach national access network. Provides the wholesale infrastructure many altnets — including Cuckoo — depend on, and competes head-on at the retail broadband layer.
• Virgin Media O2: Major UK quad-play operator offering cable and fibre broadband, mobile and TV bundles. A broad incumbent in the same residential broadband market with scale and content advantages Cuckoo lacks.
• Sky Broadband: Large UK retail broadband provider bundling internet with Sky's premium TV and content portfolio. Competes for the same residential streaming/working-from-home use cases Cuckoo targets.
• Vodafone UK: Major UK broadband and mobile provider with growing FTTP footprint via CityFibre partnerships. Competes across both fixed broadband and converged connectivity — a relevant incumbent benchmark for pricing and bundling pressure.
