What reviewers often mention

🎯

Service quality

Several reviews mention on-time deliveries and easy installations. Another clear theme is incorrect setup, including the wrong package and a lost landline. Some customers report delayed activation and hardware-return penalties taken from their accounts.

💰

Value for money

Many reviewers mention surprise charges such as roaming fees, mid-contract price rises, and early-exit costs. Others say the full‑fibre deals are competitively priced with fixed monthly rates, and that the transfer went smoothly. Complaints also repeat about refunds being disputed and charge reversals being refused.

User experience

Many customers say setup was simple by following the instructions, and that router swaps were hassle-free. A smaller but noticeable group reports long waits to get connected and troubleshooting that dragged on for days. A few reviews also say the promised speeds did not match what they got.

🔧

Product quality

Several reviews praise the router and signal strength, with some calling the Wi‑Fi very fast. When the service is up, customers often describe the connection as stable. A minority mention speeds that fluctuate or come in below expectations.

📞

Communication

A strong set of negative reviews says support was unreachable or missing, and that billing stayed unresolved after switching providers. Several people say they could not contact the company and planned to dispute charges with their bank. Other reviewers, though, describe easy phone or email contact and quick responses.

Overall experience

Reviews split between high satisfaction with installation and speed, and deep frustration over support and billing. The same pattern repeats: praise for the technical setup alongside complaints about account handling. People often describe either quick solutions or issues that stayed unresolved for a long time.
