We got the fiber and so did a lot of people in my area. It was good at first but now it's so bad we can't even watch each other's streams. Another isp company falls flat

Brilliant service today from Tobi F. We've been waiting 2 weeks for a broadband router and Tobi resolved the issue within a few minutes. No dramas, just a very polite and calm conversation.

Switched from competitor for faster…

Switched from competitor for faster speeds, BIG mistake. I have ALL of my equipment routed through APC battery back up surge protection. After multiple visits once to replace wrong grounding block at dish, another time to replace poe and the last time to replace poe AGAIN. This time it was discovered that the tech that replaced the first poe decided to disconnect my APC surge protection unknowing to me. So when their poe went out again, it blew my $700 ROG ASUS GT-AX11000 Gaming Router! David Renshaw with VIP support decided they were not responsible.
"After careful review, we have determined that Rise is not responsible for the damage to your router. Our Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices include internal grounding mechanisms designed to protect connected equipment from normal static discharges.
Additionally, our technicians follow standard installation procedures, which do not require them to connect personal equipment."
1. They should of never disconnected my personal equipment!
2. It was not static, it was the poe going out and becoming so hot it burns to touch.
If not resolved and owning up to their huge mistake, I will be cancelling.
TBD....

24 hours after installation and I'm already having to call technical support because the instructions for setting up were so vague, on top of that there was already an outage. Will perhaps upgrade the stars if service and reliability improve from here.

The guy did a great job coming to set it up and put it right where I wanted it. The only reason why I didn’t give him full star points is because he was supposed to be there between eight and showed up a little bit after 12

We are happy!

Overall easy, quick process - great customer service from Sonny to get the appointment set up. We had to reschedule our original appointment for install due to crazy strong winds, but they had plenty of days available right away. I don't know our tech's name, but he was great. Very aware of the longevity of his installations on unusual building materials and did great work. Thank you!! (Oh, and the internet itself is great, too!)
