Gigabit Voucher
Scheme: a helping hand for SMEs 

About the Scheme

The UK government has launched a new nationwide Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme (GBVS) which is funded by a pot of £67m and aims to provide vouchers worth up to £3,000 for businesses (SME’s) to help with the costs of connecting to “full fibre” (gigabit-capable) broadband. 4D Data Centres is an approved official supplier for this scheme.

What happens after you apply?

• You'll get an initial email from the Gigabit Voucher team (gigabit.vouchers@notifications.service.gov.uk). Make sure it hasn't ended up in your spam folder- your voucher will be issued once you've confirmed and you are happy with the terms and conditions (provided via the email).
• We'll keep you informed about the delivery of your new service and confirm once the connection is up and running. We'll also update the Gigabit Voucher team once you have your gigabit-capable connection.
• You'll get a second email from the Gigabit Voucher team (gigabit.vouchers@notifications.service.gov.uk), asking you to confirm that your new service is connected and you are happy with the connection speed. 
• A final email will be sent to you, asking to confirm how much your voucher was worth.
