Frustrating One-Way Communication

I requested a new connection, but instead of coordinating with me, they set their own installation date for the very next morning. When I reached out, asking them to call me back due to timing issues, my request was completely ignored. They went ahead with the disconnection, leaving me without internet and disrupting my work. There was no communication or flexibility, and I wasn’t even given enough time to set up the router. It felt like a one-way process where they made all the decisions without any regard for the customer. Very frustrating experience! ...read more
Pros
Nothing that I know of now :(
Cons
No coordination or flexibility; they make decisions without consulting the customer. Disconnected the previous connection without ensuring a smooth transition. No time given to set up the router, impacting work and daily activities.

Great tech / nerd focused ISP. Be warned, this is not the ISP for non technical users, but if you understand what you are in for the features are amazing.
Pros
Reverse PTR, ONT Diagnostics, Multiple public IPs, cheap Static IPs
Cons
Only suitable for enthusiast users

After trying two other ISPs, I finally found one that delivers real Hyperfibre performance. No slowdowns, no high latency—just blazing-fast speeds and rock-solid stability. Unlike other providers, this ISP allows me to use my own WiFi 7 modem, offers a dynamic IP, and best of all, has no locked-in contracts.

Gaming and large file transfers, everything runs flawlessly. Customer support is knowledgeable and responsive, actually understanding real networking needs. If you want true speed, flexibility, and reliability, this is the ISP to go with. ...read more

If you want an internet provider that gives great service and customer support ,avoid this company at all costs.Sent a faulty modem that couldnt be configured with a dodgy dc input plug,then when attempting to resolve very little if any support.An absolute joke.Worst part is i cant charge them for wasting my time waiting for any response .Since gone to inspirenet,a breath of fresh air ,modem is plug and play and you get to talk to a real person

Best customer service I've ever had with a utility provider. The plans are unlimited so you won't be throttled at a certain point when downloading games etc like other providers. I've found them incredibly easy and positive to deal with, especially knowing my area very well and being local themselves
Pros
Friendly, reliable local team who are fair and want the best for you
Cons
None
