Fidium Fiber, a New Gigabit Fiber Internet Service from Consolidated Communications, Coming Soon to Pennsylvania

Customers in 17,500 Gibsonia, Cranberry Township, Mars, Saxonburg, Valencia and Wexford Homes Will Delight in the Straightforward Pricing with No Contracts or Bundles

Pittsburgh, Pa. — April 21, 2022 — As internet providers race to give customers access to the fastest speeds available, Fidium Fiber, a new service from Consolidated Communications (NASDAQ: CNSL), is being offered for the first time in Pennsylvania. Fidium will dramatically increase upload and download speeds in areas of Gibsonia, Cranberry Township, Mars, Saxonburg, Valencia and Wexford.

Residents can pre-order now to be first to be notified when Fidium lights up more than 13,000 homes next month. By the end of the year, nearly 17,500 area homes are expected to have access to Fidium. At a time when less than half of Pennsylvanians have access to fiber optic internet [1], Fidium’s arrival stands to vastly improve internet performance for residents.

“Fidium is the future of Consolidated’s consumer fiber internet service, and we’re proud to offer it at a competitive price point to our customers in Pennsylvania,” said Erik Garr, president of consumer and small business for Consolidated Communications. “Fidium’s reimagined customer experience includes more choices, control and personalization, but most importantly, Fidium delivers the ultra-fast speeds that customers need to work and learn from home.”

Fidium was created to give customers exactly what they want, such as straightforward plans and pricing with superfast speeds, and nothing they don’t, like shared bandwidth, data caps, contracts, hidden fees and required bundles. Symmetrical gig-speed fiber internet is available for $70 per month, including installation and whole-home WiFi, and Fidium customers will get the best experience with the Attune WiFi whole-home management app. A range of other high-speed fiber plans are available to meet customers’ needs starting at $35 per month.

Every Fidium Fiber internet plan offers:

  • Simple, affordable pricing ($70 per month for Gig service) that includes WiFi equipment and installation, with no required bundles, no data caps and no contract;
  • An intelligent whole-home mesh WiFi experience that starts with a top-rated WiFi 6 gateway and up to two extenders;
  • The Attune WiFi app, which offers new insights, more customization, more control and an unprecedented level of communication from your network and your smart home devices; 
  • Easy, hassle-free installation on your schedule with text updates and two-hour appointment windows;
  • Intuitive customer portal with self-service options;
  • Real time, proactive network monitoring to solve issues remotely before customers even know they are happening; and
  • Premium technical support provided by experienced, compassionate team members.  

“In addition to the enhanced customer experience and best internet connection Fidium offers, we’re unequivocally proud of the service’s straightforward pricing and friendly, flexible service,” Garr added.

Consolidated today announced that the service is now also being offered in California, Illinois, Minnesota and Texas. In 2022, Consolidated will build more than 400,000 fiber connections to homes across eight states, adding to the 330,000 new fiber connections the company built in 2021.
