More details about Hey! Family Connect ProAverage speed is the download speed at least half of customers get at peak time (8pm to 10pm). We earn a commission from the provider when you switch through our links, at no extra cost to you. Commission never affects how deals are ranked.

Customer rating sourced from Trustpilot. Checked 11 September 2026.
The monthly rate you sign up for is locked in for the full two years. Around half the providers on the market offer this, but it remains a strong advantage over major networks that schedule annual increases.
Hey Broadband runs on independent FTTP infrastructure built by F&W Networks rather than reselling Openreach lines. This gives you a direct fibre connection with the symmetrical or near-symmetrical upload speeds typical of dedicated networks.
You get a £100 bill credit applied to your account when you switch to them using the One Touch Switch system. Many providers offer switching incentives, but a clear £100 credit helps offset early costs.
Customers taking the fastest gigabit tier receive a 12-month subscription to Norton 360 Deluxe included at no extra cost. Bundled security software is rare among alternative networks and adds practical value to the fastest package.
Every package includes a free router and free standard installation. This is common among alternative networks but still worth noting since some older providers continue to charge setup fees.
Hey Broadband is a regional alternative network founded in 2019 and headquartered in Altrincham, Cheshire. They are not a national provider and they do not resell Openreach connections. Instead, they run their own full fibre service using infrastructure built by F&W Networks, an independent operator that has reached around 410,000 premises. Their customer base is small but growing, passing 35,000 users in March 2025.
The main draw here is the simple setup. You get a direct fibre connection with symmetrical or near-symmetrical upload speeds, plus UK-based customer support. They also bundle a 12-month Norton 360 Deluxe subscription on their fastest package. Because they sit on dedicated independent infrastructure, the network is built specifically for full fibre delivery.
The catch is that you can only get Hey Broadband if you live in their specific footprint. Coverage is strictly limited to the South East of England. They serve areas around Oxford, Reading, Guildford and Brighton, along with surrounding towns across Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Surrey and West Sussex. You will need to check your postcode to see if their cables run down your street.
This entry tier is highly capable for a household of three or more people. It handles high-quality streaming, online gaming and multiple devices running at once without struggling. For most standard households, this provides all the capacity you actually need.
Stepping up to 400Mbps gives you significant headroom for heavier usage. This tier suits homes with several demanding users watching 4K streams on different screens simultaneously. It is also a strong fit for remote workers who regularly sync large files using cloud collaboration tools, offering extra bandwidth rather than just essential capacity.
The highest tier delivers speeds nearing a full gigabit, aimed at large households of four or more heavy users who want futureproofing. The full fibre connection provides fast upload speeds for content creators and reliable cloud backups, while the included Norton 360 Deluxe subscription adds value. Keep in mind that getting these speeds to your wireless devices requires good hardware, though modern Wi-Fi 6 routers handle it much better than older equipment.
Hey Broadband sits in the middle of the pack for entry-level pricing but offers strong value at the top end. Their Megafast 400Mbps package at 400Mbps currently starts from £23.00 a month, with the gigabit option usually costing only a few pounds more. Every package comes with a free router and free standard installation, plus a £100 bill credit when you switch using the One Touch Switch process.
The standout feature of their pricing is the complete lack of mid-contract rises. The price you agree to on day one is exactly what you pay for the entire term, making it much easier to budget than the structured increase models used by most major providers.
The main downside is flexibility. Hey Broadband only offers 24-month contracts. There are no 12-month, 18-month or rolling monthly options available. This is a genuine limitation if you rent your home or just prefer not to be tied down for two years.
Hey Broadband vs BT. Both providers offer top speeds around 900Mbps, but Hey Broadband is cheaper at the entry level while delivering a faster full fibre connection. BT applies fixed price rises during the contract, whereas Hey Broadband guarantees a flat price for the full 24-month contract.
Hey Broadband vs Virgin Media. Virgin Media is slightly faster at the top end and often cheaper on its headline entry tier, though its cable network delivers slower upload speeds than Hey Broadband’s full fibre. Virgin Media applies scheduled price rises during the contract, whereas Hey Broadband commits to zero increases across the entire 24-month term.
Hey Broadband vs NOW Broadband. These two are often matched on entry-level pricing, but Hey Broadband delivers more than double the speed at that price point and goes significantly faster at the top end. NOW Broadband contracts state your price could change during the term, making Hey Broadband’s flat-price guarantee stronger for budgeting.
Every successful switch through Switchity plants two trees through our verified reforestation partner, Ecologi. A mature tree takes up about 22 kg of CO₂ a year, according to the European Environment Agency. Once grown, the 450 trees our switchers have funded could absorb around 9,900 kg of CO₂ a year.

They are a solid regional choice, holding a Trustpilot score of 4.0 out of 5 from 5,708 reviews. Their flat-price model and reliable full fibre network are strong points, though they sit a step below the very highest-rated alternative networks for overall customer satisfaction. You can only get them in specific parts of the South East, which limits their appeal to those within the footprint.
No, the price you agree to at sign-up is locked in for the entire 24-month contract. This flat-pricing model is a major advantage over the major national providers, who typically schedule fixed price rises during the contract term.

They are strictly a regional provider covering the South East of England, not a national network. Their service areas include Oxford, Reading, Guildford, Brighton and surrounding towns across the F&W Networks footprint. You must check your specific postcode, as they are not available everywhere even within those counties.
Yes, they run on independent full fibre infrastructure built by F&W Networks, rather than using Openreach or CityFibre lines. This independent infrastructure is purpose-built for full fibre delivery.
They only offer a single 24-month contract option across all their packages. There are no 12-month, 18-month or one-month rolling terms available. This is a genuine limitation if you rent your property or want the flexibility to switch providers sooner.
No, they are not currently a member of this voluntary scheme. This means you will not receive automatic account credits if an engineer misses an appointment, or if your installation or repairs are delayed, which you would get with providers who participate.
Every package comes with a free router, free standard installation and full support for the One Touch Switch process. You also get a £100 bill credit applied to your account when you switch to them, and the fastest gigabit tier includes a 12-month subscription to Norton 360 Deluxe.
Every switch through Switchity supports reforestation and saves our community money on their broadband.
