The leased line vs FTTP decision comes down to contention, SLA and price.
Contention: FTTP is shared. Modern CityFibre FTTP is very fast and contention rarely causes issues for typical business use. A leased line is exclusively yours — exactly the speed you pay for, always.
Price: A 1 Gbps leased line costs £300–600/month in WV. A 1 Gbps FTTP costs £30–80/month. For most businesses, FTTP with 4G failover achieves near-100% uptime at a fraction of leased line cost.
SLA: FTTP has 1–2 business day resolution. Leased lines have 4-hour fix with financial penalties. For operations where downtime has direct financial cost, this matters.
No. Most WV SMEs with up to 50 staff are excellently served by gigabit FTTP. Leased lines suit cloud-heavy, VoIP-at-scale or mission-critical operations.
100 Mbps leased line from £150–250/month. 1 Gbps from £350–600/month.
For most businesses, yes. FTTP + 4G failover delivers 99.95%+ effective uptime at a fraction of leased line cost.
