Hyperoptic

About the Company

Hyperoptic was founded in 2011 to shake up the broadband market, and we're proud to be forever in our customers' corner. Unlike some providers, we deliver full fibre - which means we bring our fibre cabling all the way to the building. And that means an ultra-reliable connection with top speeds over 48x faster than the UK's average upload. But it's not just our broadband that's top-notch. With more 5-star Trustpilot ratings than Sky, BT and Virgin Media combined, we also know a thing or two about gold-standard service. No wonder we were named Uswitch Broadband Provider of the Year in 2023.
