What reviewers often mention

🎯

Service quality

Reviews describe long outages and repeated dropouts during account transfers and router swaps. Several people report missed engineer visits, leaving households without internet for days or weeks. A number of reviews link faulty hardware to the loss of service.

💰

Value for money

Customers report surprise charges, billing after closure, and sudden price rises. Reviews mention a stated exit fee and several cases of overcharging or fees they say were not authorised. Few reviewers defend the pricing, and positive comments on value are rare.

User experience

Many reviewers say transfers and migrations led to long downtime with weak follow-up. Several people describe difficulty cancelling and continued billing after moving to another provider. A small share of reviews reports billing questions being resolved quickly and effectively.

🔧

Product quality

Complaints mention router upgrades and hardware charges that happened alongside service loss. Some reviewers report slower speeds after contract changes or renewals. One reviewer notes consistent speeds above 60 Mbps, but that positive point appears only once.

📞

Communication

Most reviews mention long waits on hold, busy phone lines, and slow or missing replies to emails and cancellation requests. Several accounts describe unhelpful or rude exchanges and no confirmation when changes were made. One review praises a named agent for fast resolution, but this is unusual.

Overall experience

Feedback leans heavily negative, with repeated operational breakdowns and billing disputes. A small number of high-rating reviews point to good support or reliable speeds, standing out against the wider run of complaints. Overall, the comments suggest service quality varies widely between accounts.

Rayez .K 4/5

A friend recommended the Origin brand website to me, but I did not believe it until I bought the 67 Mbps (Origin Max Fiber).

The coverage of this WIFI is excellent. I get the best signal strength in the kitchen, bathroom, and main bedroom. But I get the worst in the guest room and living room. That's still not bad, considering how many walls there are. The speed is also superb. It has never gone below 60 Mbps, with four devices connected (one is a Smart TV).

Now I have the fastest connection in my neighborhood. I'm a satisfied customer and

I honestly recommend this website it.
