# oxio vs. Novus

Novus runs genuinely fast fibre — if your building happens to be wired for it. oxio doesn't need a specific building, and skips the contract too.

## FAQ

### Is oxio available where I currently have Novus?
Most likely — oxio rides the same leased cable network as the major providers in your area, so coverage usually isn't the limiting factor. Check by postal code to see the plans available at your exact address.

### Does switching from Novus to oxio cost anything?
No signup fee, no shipping charge, no equipment fee. The price you're quoted at checkout is the price on your first bill — nothing extra shows up once you're already a customer.

### How long does switching from Novus take?
Usually just a few days from signup to being online. Keep your Novus service active until oxio is confirmed working, then cancel — that avoids any gap in your internet.

### What happens to my Novus equipment when I switch?
Return it through Novus's own process once you've cancelled — oxio ships you its own equipment regardless, so there's no overlap or workaround needed.
