Don't see anything about them pricing 1Gb at £25/month.

Believe it's £60/month without a phone line and £47/month + line rental.

There are a few time limited special offers but they are exactly that, not the ongoing price.

They appear to charge £22/month + line rental for 100Mb, £35/month without a phone line.

Not a bad price by any stretch, mind.

That's only for 6 months, £47 a month after, plus £16 a month for phone service. Or without phone, £30 a month for 6 months, then £60 thereafter

That's a promotion. Quote the true price and it's very different. Remember also users are tied to a choice of just one ISP. I would expect to see relatively few take up a high speed Hyperoptic service when FTTC at 60-80 Mbps is available from a choice of ISPs. Our development had a choice of gap funding a BT AIO cab or contributing to a Hyperoptic installation. Care to guess which they chose and the reasons given?

No. Our AIO cab is going in on Wednesday and should be ready for use early next year, hopefully late January or early February.

Hyperoptic kept changing their plans and costings. At one point they just wanted a contribution towards their costs, not unreasonable as it involved running Ethernet in trunking to 75 properties half of which are terraced houses. Then they decided they wanted 45 firm commitments to connect and a contribution or may be not, all depending on who we spoke to. We even told them who to contact for 28 possible connections which they seemed to be reluctant to do. If they had got those 28 they would have had well over 40, perhaps even 50 committed. The company owning those 28 properties were forever complaining that they were losing tenants due to poor broadband and told us they would be happy to include a basic level broadband connection with each property. Now it's too late and residents are looking forward to upgrading their existing TT/BT/Sky/Plusnet/EE etc connections to FTTC. Most if not all should be able to achieve rates well into the 70s. The longest cable run from the new AIO is around 200m.

Hello

It's likely that we're working with the Developer however please email details to [email protected] and we'll confirm.

Generally, for new developments, the service will be installed and ready before residents move in. If Hyperoptic is not available, residents can still champion for Hyperoptic to be installed as a retro-fit.

I hope this helps

Thanks, I've just dropped you an email and had a look at the champions link too.

I'm going to view the apartments tomorrow and will try dig some info on the developers and also what infrastructure is available.

I never understood why Hyperoptic seem to need to charge SO much for a landline!

If you would out the "with £16 phone line" costs it can work out more then broaband only...
