Quick install & excellent communication

I needed to change the install date & emailed IDNet, the replied very quickly & I was able to change the date. The router arrived a few days before which was perfect.
On the day of install they actually arrived early which wasn’t a problem & the install was completed in about 40 minutes.

You get what you pay for!

IDNet is not the lowest cost ISP but, having been with several other ISP's in the past, they are by far the best. Customer service is first rate, service is reliable and speed is consistent.

Unfortunately although the installation went well my connection is not working and although spending a great deal of time yesterday this has still not been resolved.
Communication regarding updates on resolution needs to be better.

Dear Michael,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am very sorry to hear that you felt our communication was not up to the standard you expected during your recent interaction with us.

After reviewing your case, I see that while our Team advised they would investigate and follow up, they did not clearly set expectations around when you would hear from us. I understand how this may have left you feeling overlooked and we sincerely apologise for that.

I have highlighted the importance of clearer, more proactive communication with our Team to prevent this happening again and am pleased to see that your case was picked up by a member of our Day Team, who is in close contact with you to ensure it is resolved as quickly as possible.

We do appreciate your feedback and hope we can restore your confidence in our service.

Sincerely,

IDNet

Simply the Best

What makes this a great company as a broadband supplier is:- it works! I have never had to call customer services, everything works.
The ve used idnet for many years, not the cheapest but definitely the best. I have on occasion changed providers because of cost but find other providers absolutely too sketchy to be bothered with. I’ve always retuned to IDnet because it’s reliable and fast.

Switched from another provider using one touch switch - the process was very smooth and happened overnight whilst I slept, just needing the new details entering on the router when I woke up. So far the speeds have been good and Ive had no issuezls

great customer service

great customer service
Network always works.
When it hasn't due to BT outage, service restored very quickly.
I've been a customer for a few years now and will continue to be if they continue to have the same high standards.

Not as fast or as responsive as I hoped

I appreciate variances in equipment and domestic setups, but with a router directly connected to OTN FTTP I wouldn’t expect to be 200mbit under 900, nor a 20+ms latency.

But apparently everything is fine and this is what I’m now stuck with.
