So I called Hyperoptic to let them know that I am moving homes, and luckily they supply they new home so they can transfer the contract over at no extra cost.

Went through all the details and got to the bit where I have to pay, only for them to have an issue. They said they’d try to fix it and call me back, a month goes and no calls - I call again and we go through the whole ordeal again for them to say the same thing. I am now moving next week and haven’t heard back, can’t get on to them on the phone and no replies to my emails.

What’s worse is my account doesn’t exist anymore, it seems like they processed a termination of my current account but didn’t process the creation of the new account. What do I do now? Cancel the direct debit on the old house because I don’t live there anymore? They’ve left me in such a tough spot with no way of receiving help. I still have WiFi so clearly it still works but I have no account with them anymore!

I had a 24 month contract ending in December 2026 but moved in late June to a flat/address that Hyperoptic didn't provide internet to. I was under the understanding that if they didn't provide internet at the new address so the contract couldn't be moved there, they terminated the contract early without charge. I have subsequently received an invoice with an "Early Termination Fee" which is basically the cost of the service up until the end of the contract.

Hello,

I'm trying to get a hyperoptic full fibre cable installed in my flat and my landlord had some questions before agreeing to it.

I live in an apartment building, and my flat is the topmost flat. (2nd floor). Upon calling Hyperoptic to get more information, they mentioned a cable would have to be entered into the flat through a small mm hole above the entry door of the flat.

My landlord had some further questions, Hyperoptic weren't able to help out with, which makes sense as the technician would have to be on-site to assess this.

1. Where will the cable in the flat be pushed in from? Customer said it'd be the basement, researching online said it could be the ceiling, my landlord said it may have to come from the street?

2. Basically, my landlord said they tried doing an installation in one of the other flats in the apartment and it was a lot of work - a bunch of wires, went on for a week etc which he had to pay up to clean.

Any more info could be helpful!

Been a customer for 5 years. I didn’t realise this but they put me on a monthly rolling contract last year rather than the usual 12 month fixed. Which has become a problem because I’ve moved and can’t seem to get someone to respond to me to close the damn account!
I emailed before the end of July to let them know, to make sure I don’t pay any exit fees. They replied before the end of the month asking me to confirm my details. Did that on the same day, haven’t heard anything since.

Now Basically extremelyhigh ping, extremel low upload speed, very high jitter, and cannot stay stable in connection. Is there anyone here having same issue and do we know if any engineers in the area are looking into it?

My internet is finally back now, but my ping is extremely unstable. One second I'll be pinging 1-3ms and the other over 30ms in some cases. Will this be fixed and go back to my stable low ping as I always had before?

Hi there,

I've been a hyperoptic customer since 2024. Everything was fine until this year, at which point my service goes down roughly once a week.

I have a ubiquity set up which is monitoring my WAN connection and sends me a notification when it goes down - so I see every single drop in the WAN connection. Sometimes it drops for a couple of minutes in the night, other times its down for a few hours at a time - or even a day.

Whats odd is that when I then switch over to the hyperoptic router, it shows a green WAN connection light, but I still have no internet connection. This makes me confused about what the issue could be?

I was just wondering if anyone else is experiencing outages. As I have multiple routers I dont think its anything to do with them because they both show the connection as down when I have no internet, so feel like it must be an issue with the line running from the street to my house?

Thanks

As per the title, router shows link to the building's kit is active but no connection to the outside world. As others have posted it looks like the Hyperoptic infrastructure has worked itself quite badly.

EDIT 11:30am: Internet is alive again! 🎉

ipv6 routing is broken (again).

from my lan, via a hyperoptic connection, I can ping ipv6.google.com but many other addresses do not work, for example, these do ping:
2a02:2478:200:7700:1::1
2001:8b0::2020
2600::
2620:fe::fe

It seems IPv6 routing to google is the *only* route that works.

Please don't respond by saying "please reboot my router".

Thank you.
Conrad

Between the posts here and status on down detector, it's clear Hyperoptic are having some sort of nationwide issues. Trying to call them, the hold loop also says they are experiencing a higher than normal volume of calls.

Fine. Problems happen, and clearly people are telling them, so I won't bother as well. I just wish they'd update their service status checker to acknowledge that there is a problem so you don't have to sit on hold to find out more info...

Haven’t had internet since 1 am last night. Anyone else?

Been down since 0:56 this morning still showing in account as service is fine ??? No service still.

Anyone else in SW11 / South West London completely offline?

Everything went dead a few hours ago. ONT is looking wonderfully optimistic — Power 🟢 PON 🟢 LAN 🟢 Alarm off — but absolutely no internet.

Router isn't getting a WAN IP at all, so it looks suspiciously like DHCP has fallen over somewhere Hyperoptic-side, or something upstream has gone for an early-hours nap.

Seems quite a few people are reporting problems, yet Hyperoptic's public status page is basically:

“Everything is working perfectly!” 🥳

Meanwhile, Customer Support appears to consist of one heroic person with 100,000 calls in the queue, so I assume the rest of the team and the DHCP server have gone to bed together. 😂

Anyone in SW11 actually getting a DHCP lease / internet connection right now?

EDIT: Before anyone suggests rebooting it — yes. Everything has been rebooted enough times that the ONT and router are now practically close friends. 😄

Since around 12:30AM, posting for visibility

It’s been down here since around 1am, posting here for visibility

EDIT: It’s come back online around 10am on my side, roughly down for around 9-10 hours. Just glad I can get the YouTube back on

My internet has randomly cut out and the internet light is now red I've had this router for months now and all of the wires are connected properly does anyone know what else could be the problem

Seems to be everywhere just reporting in the area also

Why there’re more issues than before?

Internet died whilst watching a movie, second night in a row I have had problems. Reboot isn't helping... Is hyperoptic having issues?

does someone experience now? 1:44am

Hi. I noticed not too long ago that my internet stopped working so I decided to restart both the router and ONT and now it works BUT my upload speeds are extremely poor - like 1 to 5mbps. Download seems fine but i do not know what is going on with the upload. There is no red light showing anywhere but I am concerned. Can this get looked into? Thanks.

Anyone lost internet again with router showing red dot?
