Origin Broadband - Internet Service Provider and Network Operator

27th April 2016

Origin Broadband is an Internet Service Provider and Network Operator that was founded by two South Yorkshire entrepreneurs, Oliver Bryssau and Henri Wust, in early 2011.

Beginning life as a niche provider of high-quality superfast connections at a time when general connectivity in the region was notoriously unreliable, the company soon grew in prominence to become one of the region's most reputable independent suppliers. In 2014, Origin launched a state-of-the-art, independent network throughout the South Yorkshire area. Currently standing as the sixth largest of its type in the UK, this sets Origin apart from many of their competitors and guarantees a better service and an improved price point for customers within the Sheffield City Region and beyond. Following on from being the top regional supplier of Superconnected Cities Vouchers throughout 2015, the Origin Broadband Connection Voucher initiative were introduced in October, ensuring businesses can still benefit from a heavily subsidised connection after government funding was depleted in September 2015. SMEs can now benefit from up to £3,900 towards the installation of a brand new superfast fibre or leased line connection. This funding can help a business to upgrade their connectivity, and improve the way they connect with both new markets and existing customers. Overall, £10 million of Origin Connection Vouchers are available. The funding is available for businesses in any area, so SMEs which were before ineligible for BDUK funding can now take full advantage of a high-quality connection at a greatly reduced rate. Operating from their Doncaster Head Office, Origin pride themselves on being a high-quality independent service provider, with friendly, knowledgeable support and a commitment to quality customer service. Technical support is available 24/7/365 as standard, with all calls going through to a team of technical support experts from around the South-Yorkshire region. None of their operation is outsourced and an in-house ticketing system has been rolled-out to all customers, providing up-to-the-minute updates on customer issues and support queries. For more information on Origin Broadband Connection Vouchers, follow Origin Broadband Business on LinkedIn or visit their website. To discuss how Origin can help to improve the way your business works online, talk with a dedicated account manager today on 0800 206 23 33, or email business@origin-broadband.co.uk.
