How does installation work?

The installation is completed in two sections. Firstly, external work will take place prior to install to bring our full-fibre connection to your property. After this, an internal install will be completed to provide service to your desired location. Our router will arrive on the same day of install ready to be plugged in or hand delivered and connected by one of our team depending on your choice of installation.

Do I need to be at home for the installation?

An adult (18+) must be present for the installation, though that person does not need to be the account holder.

Will Hull Fibre affect my current internet service during installation?

No, our installation process is separate from your current provider, meaning your existing service will remain active until you switch over.

Do I need special equipment?

We provide a high performance router with all packages to ensure the best speeds and coverage.

Can I use my own router?

Yes, you can use your own router. If you wish to do so, to ensure a seamless switch please inform us prior to install as we will need to provide you with your PPPOE login credentials.

What contract lengths do you offer?

We offer 12 month and 24 month contracts across all our packages.

How much does installation cost?

Standard installations on all 24 month contracts are free. There is a £25 installation fee for 12 month contracts. Non-standard installations may have additional costs. A non-standard installation would typically be any router installation that is not situated in a downstairs, front of property location.

How do I pay my bill?

You can pay your bill by recurring card payment on a selected date or via Direct Debit, which would debit your account within 3-5 working days of bill generation.

Can I upgrade or downgrade my package?

Yes! You can upgrade at any time, downgrades are also possible on condition of re-contracting or a one-off administration fee of £20.

My internet is slow. What should I do?

Try restarting your router and ONT (white box on the wall). Check your device is connecting to the right bandwidth for its capability (2.4Ghz or 5Ghz). If issues persist please contact our customer support team for assistance.

What should I do if my internet goes down?

Try restarting your router and ONT (white box on the wall). If issues persist please contact our support team for assistance.

I need an engineer – how long will I have to wait?

Yes we do! Our customer service team is contactable on 01482 574 574. Alternatively, you can also reach our team via email or live chat.

Do you offer parental controls?

Fantastic Service From Start to Finish

Great!

Only just switched over but so far so good. Excellent service from Mark explaining what deals Hull Fibre could offer me, the neat burying of the cable to my house, the fitting of the box and router inside, to the clear information given of who to contact.
