Eclipse Broadband

Eclipse Internet offers a mixture of broadband packages at good value prices, with UK based technical support with every package.

Eclipse Internet was launched in 1995 with just £20,000 and launched a dial-up internet service in 1996. Its first national broadband service came around in 2001, and it was the first UK service that was simple enough to be installed at home without the need for an IT expert or engineer. In 2002, Eclipse became the first UK ISP to offer online broadband ordering.

The Eclipse Broadband Service

If you live within Eclipse’s ‘on network area’, you may be able to get speeds up to 24Mb! Customers ‘out of area’ can still get Eclipse’s great service with speeds up to 8Mb. More information on switching broadband provider

You can choose between three package categories; Home Lite, Home Select & Home Pro.

Home Lite offers you a 2GB usage limit with free set up. Home Select extends that usage limit to 10GB as well as bundling a free router. Finally, Home Pro offers you a 50GB usage limit with all of the above as well as free over night downloads. Home Pro also adds free local and national calls (starting with 01, 02 and 03).

Eclipse awards & accreditations

Eclipse has been nominated for the 2008 Internet Service Providers’ Association (ISPA) “Best Business ISP” and “Best Business Email” awards.

It also won the award for the “Best Consumer Broadband” at the 2007 ISPA awards, where an ISPA spokesperson said: “The judges were impressed with Eclipse’s ‘zero-touch’ fully automated order processing service and rapid delivery of its broadband services. Of particular note were Eclipse’s efforts to provide uncapped broadband.”

In previous years it won other awards from the ISPA and also received commendations from PC Pro magazine and the British Computer Society.
