About Post Office Broadband

This profile is built from our broadband market dataset and the sources linked on this page. We do not repeat unchecked marketing claims; numbers and dates match fields on file or linked evidence.

Post Office Broadband was the broadband service historically offered by the Post Office. The Post Office sold the customer base to Shell Energy in 2021, and the current Post Office website surfaces bill payments and top-ups rather than active broadband sales. This record is retained as historical reference only.
