Hyperoptic promo codes for April – how to get the best broadband deal
Superfast broadband doesn't have to mean supersized bills – get three months free and a £50 gift card
If you're tired of buffering Netflix and laggy Zoom calls, switching to a faster broadband provider could be the answer. Hyperoptic offers some of the fastest speeds in the UK, with its full-fibre network delivering up to one-gigabit speed – around 10 times faster than the average UK connection – and we’ve found discounts to keep the price down.
Unlike older copper wire broadband, full-fibre networks use newer fibre optic cables every step of the way, from your humble home router to the global internet servers your devices connect to. Because the cable network is so expensive for broadband providers to build around the UK, full-fibre internet service is typically limited to more built-up areas of the country and often comes at a premium – but there are ways to upgrade for less.
The Independent’s team of deal experts are always on the lookout for the best broadband discounts. In this article, we’re rounding up the best Hyperoptic voucher codes and offers to help new customers shave pounds off their monthly broadband bill.
