Hyperoptic, a leading broadband provider, has revealed an upcoming increase of £4 per month for customers starting from April 2026, surpassing the previous rise of £3 per month. This adjustment will impact both new and existing customers across all Hyperoptic broadband plans. Despite prior statements against annual price hikes, Hyperoptic joins other telecom giants in implementing significant increases recently.
In contrast to their earlier stance, where they opposed mid-contract price adjustments, Hyperoptic’s new pricing strategy has diverged. Sky Mobile users can expect a monthly bill hike of £1.50 starting February 14, 2026, marking the first such change for in-contract customers in over seven years. O2 has also announced an increase of £2.50 per month for almost all mobile and SIM-only contract customers effective from April 2026, up from the initially planned £1.80 raise.
Additionally, Three mobile subscribers opting for data plans of 4GB or less will face a £1.80 monthly surge from April 2026, representing an 80p increase from the current £1 rise. The escalation in pricing varies based on the data plan size, with customers on plans between 4GB to 100GB experiencing a £1.90 boost, while those with over 100GB will face a £2.30 rise. Three broadband users will witness a £3.50 monthly increase from April 2026.
Vodafone mobile customers who sign up from November 12 can anticipate a £2.50 monthly rise, while Basics SIM plan holders will see a £1.50 increment. Vodafone broadband customers, on the other hand, will encounter a £3.50 elevation in their monthly bills. Existing Vodafone and Three customers will see their agreed-upon prices increase accordingly.
If you find yourself out of contract, it may be time to reassess your mobile and broadband expenses. To potentially save money, consider comparing prices online, evaluating your actual usage needs in terms of minutes, texts, and broadband speed. Switching providers or negotiating with your current one for better deals can also be viable options. Additionally, individuals receiving benefits should explore eligibility for reduced-rate social tariffs.
