This provider seems to no longer be actively trading. Octopus Energy's broadband offering - limited/pilot basis [FLAGGED_MISMATCH] [CH_STATUS:dissolved] | [FLAG_NOT_ACTIVE_BRAND] 2026-04-21: 'Octopus Fibre' is NOT a distinct trading brand of Octopus Energy. Octopus has invested in broadband through: (1) Licensing Kraken platform to Cuckoo; (2) Ownership of Fern Trading which owns altnets (Giganet/Cuckoo/Jurassic Fibre/Swish Fibre/All Points Fibre); (3) Briefly held Shell Energy broadband base before selling to TalkTalk 2024. Octopus Energy itself (CH 09367544) is an energy supplier, not an ISP. REVIEW: This row may need removal or reclassification as investment vehicle rather than ISP. | [ARCHIVED] 2026-04-21: Octopus Fibre is NOT an active standalone broadband brand in the UK. Octopus Energy Group does not run a consumer broadband ISP directly. Instead, it licenses its Kraken platform to broadband ISPs (first client: Cuckoo July 2023). Octopus Group (via Fern Trading) is ultimate owner of AllPoints Fibre network (Giganet/Jurassic Fibre/Swish Fibre/Cuckoo consolidated). Inherited ~500K Shell Energy broadband customers via December 2023 acquisition. No separate 'Octopus Fibre' retail ISP brand exists. Note: octopusfiber.com and octopusbroadband.uk are 'Octopus Telecom Ltd CH 07007920' - an unrelated London-based ISP. This row should be archived.
