    Very disappointed with @Hyperoptic 3 days with no internet and their customer services don’t even reply. Still in my first month so time to find another provider!

  • seyefaro Oluseye Farodoye (@seyefaro) reported

    @Hyperoptic is seriously messing with my work. Getting download speeds of 1Mbps when you’re paying for 1Gig is unacceptable. Spoke to customer support and they’re asking me plug a cable to test. Where am I supposed to find a computer with an Ethernet port?

    First sort out Full Fibre to the homes!! Labour has dropped the ball on this issue.

    @MHalberstram12 @Hyperoptic That’s terrible. Big themselves up about being best …… but actually when I comes to honouring promises they are very much not the best.

  • Anubhav_11 Anubhav A. (@Anubhav_11) reported

    @Hyperoptic Can you please avoid maintenance work during working hours? As you might be aware a lot of people work from home these days, and loss of network on weekdays between the working hours is a very big inconvenience. Reading RG1.

  • Pro4TLZZ Bilal 🇵🇸🇸🇩 #DeportElonMusk #EuthaniseSettlers (@Pro4TLZZ) reported

    @Hyperoptic really upset with the progress and quality of my installation, it's the 4th visit and yet the wrong team and engineers who are incapable of solving the problem and don't have the equipment are being dispatched to me. I've had to constantly chase for more visits myself

  • 6thGrom Grom McGromface The 6th (@6thGrom) reported

    @Hyperoptic internet still down in the SM1 area. I'm about to finish work and head home. This makes me a sad panda 😞🐼 what's going on guys?

  • ml_man Alex Man (@ml_man) reported

    @robjoe11 @Hyperoptic It’s a scam - I was offered £50 to refer a friend. Customer service claimed it was an error and only offered £25. Still no voucher after many months! Don’t bother helping these scammers!

  • Iamtripuresh Tripuresh Verma (@Iamtripuresh) reported

    @Hyperoptic I have got 1 GBPS speed connection but I am receiving barely 200 MBPS ,can you please help here

  • johnrahers It's me, John (@johnrahers) reported

    Whole day of work wasted today thanks to @Hyperoptic engineer refusing to do the work he was booked in to do. Despite all the other engineers in my neighbours’ flats doing it correctly. Help please @Hyperoptic, not impressed losing a day’s money for this terrible service.
