Our take
Founded in 2020, Cuckoo aims to improve the reputation of the broadband sector by revolutionising customer service.
The company is bringing in transparency to what it deems a "broken broadband market" and is positioning itself as a disruptor in the sector. Cuckoo has simple pricing, no loyalty tax, and no hidden charges while offering the fastest available speed on the network. It models its position in the market on disruptors in other sectors that successfully challenged larger competitors, such as Octopus Energy and Revolut.
Cuckoo is backed by leading venture capital investors, and is continually developing its products to offer the best broadband services for customers. It has also been voted twice in a row as MoneySavingExpert's top broadband provider for customer service, whilst TrustPilot reviews suggest that it's faring far better than competitors regarding customer service.
