Step two

How to complain about Hyperoptic

Work through the stages in order. Each one creates the paper trail the next stage needs.

  1. 1

    Stage 1

    Contact Hyperoptic customer service

    Same day

    Call 0333 332 1111 or use Hyperoptic live chat. Explain the fault or billing problem and ask for a complaint reference if the call does not resolve it.

    Record the date, adviser name and reference.

    Follow up in writing so there is a record of what was promised.

  2. 2

    Stage 2

    Raise a formal complaint with Hyperoptic

    Within 8 weeks of the issue

    Use the Hyperoptic complaints page or email support@hyperoptic.com. State your account number, what went wrong, the dates and the remedy you want.

    Ask for written acknowledgement and a complaint reference.

    Attach bills, screenshots, speed tests or photos that support the timeline.

  3. 3

    Stage 3

    Wait for the eight-week window

    Up to 8 weeks

    Ofcom gives Hyperoptic up to eight weeks to resolve a formal complaint. Keep a written timeline and ask for progress updates.

    Get any agreed credit, repair or cancellation confirmed in writing.

    The eight weeks run from the formal complaint, not the first support call.

  4. 4

    Stage 4

    Ask for a deadlock letter

    Anytime before 8 weeks

    If Hyperoptic will not resolve the complaint sooner, ask for a deadlock letter. This lets an ADR scheme review the case without waiting the full eight weeks.

    Keep the deadlock letter or email.

    The letter names the ADR scheme that covers your provider.

  5. 5

    Stage 5

    Escalate to the ADR scheme

    Promptly - schemes set their own time limits

    Contact the scheme named in the deadlock letter: the Communications Ombudsman or Ombudsman Services: Communications. Submit your evidence and the outcome you want.

    Accept or reject the decision within the scheme deadline.

    ADR is free for consumers, and the provider must comply with a decision you accept.

Questions

Hyperoptic FAQ

How do I contact Hyperoptic customer service?

Call 0333 332 1111, or use Hyperoptic live chat. Live chat is usually the fastest route for account and connection issues.

How do I make a formal complaint to Hyperoptic?

Use the Hyperoptic complaints page or email support@hyperoptic.com. Include your account number, what happened, key dates and the outcome you want. Ask for a complaint reference and written acknowledgement.

How long does Hyperoptic have to resolve a complaint?

Up to eight weeks from the formal complaint. If it is resolved sooner, ask for the remedy in writing. If not, ask for a deadlock letter so an ADR scheme can take the case.

Which ombudsman handles a Hyperoptic complaint?

The deadlock letter names the scheme. Ofcom approves two ADR providers for telecoms: the Communications Ombudsman and Ombudsman Services: Communications. Which one applies depends on Hyperoptic's membership.

How long does a UK broadband complaint take?

Most complaints are resolved within a few weeks. If the provider has not fixed the issue after eight weeks, you can ask for a deadlock letter and take it to an ombudsman. The ombudsman usually aims to decide within 90 days.

Which ombudsman handles my broadband or mobile provider?

It depends on the provider. The two schemes are the Communications Ombudsman and Ombudsman Services: Communications. Your provider must tell you which one it belongs to, and the name is usually on its complaints page.

Can I escalate to the ombudsman before eight weeks?

Usually only if the provider issues a deadlock letter or makes a final offer you reject. Otherwise, wait eight weeks from the formal complaint. Some providers agree to early escalation, so ask in writing if the case is straightforward.
