Independent profile snapshot

This extended snapshot summarises how the provider presents itself in the UK market. It supplements the dataset-led summary above.

Upnet UK (Upnet Ltd) was a UK alternative network retail broadband provider historically delivering full-fibre (FTTP) broadband packages to consumer customers across the UK from a Macclesfield base. Registered as Upnet Ltd (Companies House 13440521, incorporated 7 June 2021) at 25 Hatton Street, Macclesfield, Cheshire SK11 6RF and led by former Director David Orchard, the company's Companies House status is now recorded as dissolved, indicating the legal structure has been wound up and the business has ceased UK trading under this entity. At the time of writing the upnet.uk domain was still reachable, though the dissolved CH status means the legal entity that registered the ISP service is no longer active. Upnet UK historically subscribed to both CISAS and Communications Ombudsman Alternative Dispute Resolution schemes for customer complaints. Contact was historically via [email protected], with primary website upnet.uk. Existing customers seeking continuity or dispute resolution should consult the Communications Ombudsman for guidance, and prospective customers are strongly encouraged to verify current trading status directly before considering any service or contractual arrangement with this operator, given the dissolved Companies House record.
