Utility Warehouse and TalkTalk announce wholesale agreement

Utility Warehouse has entered into a wholesale supply agreement with TalkTalk. The company said the new agreement cements a long-term partnership of over 15 years.

The new agreement runs for a five-year minimum term, with significant commercial benefits for both organisations, with Utility Warehouse aiming to maintain a competitive broadband proposition as the shift to full fibre accelerates.

Utility Warehouse will benefit from TalkTalk Group’s relationship with Openreach as well as a network of alt-net fibre providers including CityFibre, Community Fibre and Freedom Fibre.

Andrew Lindsay, co-CEO, Utility Warehouse, said, “This new, long-term agreement with TalkTalk Group underpins the substantial growth opportunity in front of us, enabling us to offer market-leading fibre broadband pricing and service quality, alongside the UK’s cheapest energy and highly competitive mobile and insurance offerings.

“At a time when cost of living pressures continue to rise, and other major broadband providers have been imposing substantial automatic inflation-linked price rises on their customers, we are proud to have not only maintained our existing competitive fibre broadband prices throughout 2022, but will also be freezing them throughout the winter.”

Tristia Harrison, CEO, TalkTalk, added, “Utility Warehouse is one of our longest standing and most significant wholesale customers. We are delighted to not only be extending this relationship but strengthening it to truly accelerate full fibre take up across the UK.

“We look forward to this partnership continuing to go from strength to strength.”
