Hyperoptic, a broadband provider, has announced an increase in mid-contract prices, with customers set to experience a £4 monthly bill hike starting from April 2026. This rise marks a jump from the previous increment of £3 per month. The price adjustment will impact both new and existing customers across all Hyperoptic broadband plans. Despite previously expressing opposition to annual price hikes, Hyperoptic now joins other major telecom companies in implementing larger increases.
In contrast to its earlier stance, in 2023, Hyperoptic’s policy director, James Fredrikson, stated that they do not typically raise prices mid-contract, emphasizing that the advertised price should remain constant throughout the contract period.
