About Truespeed

Written by the company

Our mission is to bring ultrafast, full-fibre broadband to communities that other providers have overlooked.

We never consciously build where full-fibre is already available. This means that in many cases, the speeds we offer are vastly better than our customers are used to.

Connecting the communities we live in and love isn't just a job to us. It's personal. And it shows in our customer reviews.

We connect schools and community hubs for free for life, and we support local clubs and organisations.

Plus, what you sign up for is what you pay. We’ll never increase your monthly fee while you’re in contract.

That’s why upgrading to Truespeed makes such a difference for so many of our customers.

Customer Service - back to the bad old days!

Recently signed up for service but wanted to change my package before the installation and go live date.
Emailed to get a automated reply but no direct response to my request received.
Tried calling Customer Services and gave up waiting or was cut off after over 30mins.
Come on Truespeed you came on the market in a flash of pink promising so much. Please let's not go back to the bad old days of Sky and Virgin Media with poor customer service.

3 Years in, service still good

Have been with truspeed for 3 years now. The price has increased slowly with time (just by £2 a month this year), but the service is still very good. My renewal call this year took all of 4 minutes and I wasn't upsold or hassled (I spoke to Jai who was great). I've had really good customer service from both the installers and the people on the phone. Service has dropped once in 3 years, and only for a few hours - I wish their outage page was better, but oh well.

Fantastic customer support service.

I had setup a new account for MILon a Saturday afternoon, she had Talktalk on a 6mbs connection.
I had completed the account transfer application and, as i was about to leave, MIL handed me a card with a new customer offer!!!
Great, i thought, now I’ve to cancel this contract and setup all over again. I rang truespeed at Bath and was connected to Lee Gates-Deville.
He was absolutely superb. We converted the new account i had setup to the intro offer one, and extended it to a two year contract. It was a great experience not only dealing with local customer support, but a really superbly helpful support member. Everything was sorted within five minutes, Lee accepted i was MIL’s representative as it was setup using my email, as MIL doesn't do email and i had all the relevant information of the original setup.
A great person to desl with and a great company as well. I have been with Truespeed for four years and never once had any complaint of any sort. Such a friendly company to deal with and great broadband to boot.

Abysmal customer service

Shockingly poor customer service and poor WiFi coverage.
(Previously county broadband which was just as bad)

Currently trying to get in contact with the customer service desk - over 40 minutes on hold and still not through to someone. Sent an email and the automated response says to expect a response in 4 business days.

One payment missed two weeks ago (we did not realise and there were sufficient funds so no idea why this was not taken) and we receive an email our WiFi is suspended! Bonkers approach. Creating customer dissatisfaction and avoidable contact!

Rather difficult to resolve when we cannot get in touch with anyone!

Would not recommend at all. Let's hope rural services improve as perhaps if there were competition this company may actually operate honestly, fairly and provide at least some customer service!

Edit: Have since tried 3 more times (including the 'I want to leave' option) and still no answer. Each time I have waited for over 30 mins.
Starlink here we come!

Edit: since migrating to TrueSpeed without being informed it appears we have no online portal either and no account! So can’t even set one uo! Not sure how on earth to make contact?! I have wasted so much time!

No available customer service.

I had a query because my monthly call log was blank and yet there was an amount to pay on the statement. Both were sent on a 'no reply' email. In any case my previous attempts at solving a different problem never received a substantive reply. I attempted to call customer service and was on hold for 55 minutes before I had to give up. A second attempt also failed. So I am going to have to pay a direct debit when my record is blank. Unfortunately I have just signed up for another eighteen months or I certainly would have changed supplier.

Hi Truespeed Team,
My contract is ending shortly and I wanted to discuss my renewal. I just attempted to call your customer service line but had to hang up after waiting on hold for 1 hour and 30 minutes, which is incredibly disappointing.
I see on your website that you are currently running an "Any speed for £20 a month" promotion for new customers. I am currently on your 300 Mbps package.
I would love to remain a Truespeed customer and sign a new 24-month contract today, but only if you can match this promotional rate of £20 a month for my line (or upgrade me to the 900 Mbps tier for the same £20 promo price as advertised).
Please contact me by email or reply to this message to confirm if you can apply this loyalty rate to my account. If you cannot match your own public promotion to keep an existing customer, please treat this message as the beginning of my 30 days' notice to cancel so I can switch to a competitor.

Literally can not get through to anyone, moving home and trying to sort WiFi is near impossible. +10 calls with the longest one over an hour before giving up. Do not respond to emails either. AVOID

Not so "True" Speed!

I switched after a huge price hike by Sky. We were hoping for a faster speed and better customer service. The local customer service is good but I can never get through. Last week we lost our connection for an hour or so. I have a son with SEN and he relies on his iPad and internet connection. After rebooting several times I tried to call and was in a queue for a an hour. I gave up. They need a queuing system which offers to call you back. There was a live feed saying there were connection issues in a village fairly close by but not in our village. We were only notified after the event. Also I have tried to get through to find out why our speeds are not what I expected and still had to wait over an hour to be connected. We signed up 3 months ago for 150gbps for £25 a month for 2 years. But in reality with wireless devices we only get 80gbps at best. Our TV loses connection nearly every week. Previously, It was hard wired to the sky router but the router had to be moved for full fibre connection so it's now a wireless connection to the TV but its opposite & only 2 meters away. When I eventually got through to Truespeed they said we would only get 150 at the router and only devices hard wired to the router. Wifi loses almost 50%. I didn't know this was the case and none of the marketing explains this. We also have a mesh deco system throughout the house. But only get 70/80 at best. So I showed them the offer of 300 for £24 and said, since we are not getting the speeds supposedly "guaranteed" they should put us on the £24 deal to get 300. They said we were fixed until June 28. This is ridiculous. You would think they would want to keep customers satisfied. I've also emailed all this but had no reply. The TV is the main issue at it just drops out and this "triggers" my SEN son. I asked how much to go up to 300mbps hoping then we'd get the 150 (if around 50% is lost through wi-fi) but Truespeed said the cost would be around £55 a month! I notice new customers are currently being offered £20 a month for 300!! It can be done. They could just give us the extra speed as a gesture of good will. Here's hoping! We are effectively a new customer!

We’re sorry to hear your experience hasn’t met your expectations, Imogen. Wi-Fi speeds can vary depending on the devices, router positioning and home environment, and aren't necessarily the same as the speed delivered to your router. We appreciate how important a reliable connection is for your family, particularly when interruptions affect your son. We also understand your frustration around the renewal offers and difficulty reaching us to discuss your options.

Customer service?

Internet service provided is generally good and reliable, you are meant to be informed by text if they experience technical issues or have planned outages (these don’t happen anymore). Recently wanted to renew as they do not look after their existing customers unless you have a moan, new customers £20, customer of 5 years £55 and “we can offer you a deal of £42” what? Finally managed to get it down to £32 but it’s extremely poor. Asked for a new router so I could upgrade to a Linksys system for mesh compatibility in the future, I stated I was happy to pay, they offered for free which I thought was nice (and made up the 2 hours of phone hold over various calls, longest being 1 hour before I got through), they sent their standard one which is of no benefit. Have contacted via email to explain and offer this one to be returned and yet to receive a response to this or the previous email about renewing over a week ago. Customer agent was helpful but needed approval from a manager for an requests (more holding)

I’ve had queries and a couple of issues over the years and you WERE great.

I really want to support Truespeed and sing it’s praises but I just can’t do that at the moment. Put customer agents back behind the phones (enough to support the size of your network). This used to be a great local firm but growth is poisoning it. Please prove me wrong…

Thank you for your detailed feedback, Will. We’re pleased to hear you’ve generally been happy with the broadband service and that our advisor was helpful. We appreciate your concerns regarding renewal pricing, the router supplied and the difficulty getting responses to your enquiries. We understand how disappointing this feels when you’ve previously experienced a much quicker service from us.

Uncontactable customer service

Tried calling customer Service five times yesterday to report loss of connection. Each time holding on for between 10 to 20 minutes without ever getting to speak to them. Tried again today held on for 26 minutes still no answer.
This company used to be so much better than this!! Not sure what has gone wrong, but currently would suggest avoiding if you can.

We appreciate your frustration, Bill, particularly when you're trying to report a loss of connection. We’ve experienced periods of increased call volumes which have affected response times. We understand that being unable to reach someone after several attempts is disappointing, especially when you need technical assistance.

Customer service could not be worse

Internet is great, no issues with that at all! customer service could not be worse!! Absolutely unacceptable!
Trying to renew my contract and have spent over 8hrs over three days on the phone listening to the same song over and over.
Today decided to try a different option and pressed 2 for new customers and within two minutes they had answered.
This is not good enough especially as I was then told I had to speak to the renewal team and they could not transfer me.
My contract runs out today so I am now going to be charged rolling rated because of their inability to run a company properly.
They have no app, no customer portal (appart from for payment) and no way of renewing online.
Their whole business model is centered attracting new customers with special treatment and special offers (the same package they charge me £50 for they are selling for £20)
While completely neglecting the customers that have been with them for years!!
I will be looking at other options in my area.
If I charged them by the hour for my time in the phone I would have three months of free internet. Not impressed at all.

We’re pleased to hear the broadband itself has been working well for you. We appreciate your frustration around the time spent trying to discuss your renewal. New customer promotional pricing can differ from existing customer offers, and packages may change when a fixed-term contract ends. We understand that difficulty reaching us before your contract expires has added to your disappointment.

Crap company

Crap company, under staffed and badly run.

Can’t get through to customer services or takes an hour to get through. Broadband was supposed to be installed Tuesday and no updates or calls / emails.
Engineer couldn’t install and although was very friendly. The rest of the company is a let down.

We’re sorry to hear your installation hasn’t gone ahead as expected, Jon. Sometimes additional work or technical requirements are identified during an installation, which can affect the original appointment. We appreciate your positive comments about the engineer and understand your frustration regarding the lack of updates afterwards.

Truespeed is truly expensive for a pretty meh service …

Expensive for a service which frequently drops out
Seems to take advantage of no BT fibre optic option, meaning no choice for customers needing a faster broadband connection
Recent merger with Freedom has also led to customers being unable to contact the customer service helpline for several weeks! Nothing on their website to explain this.
Finally - what broadband company in 2026 sends 3 emails each month just to confirm a direct debit payment! Antiquated at best.
I keep looking for another provider - maybe things will improve now they’ve merged?? 🤞🤞

We’re sorry to hear you’ve been disappointed with your experience. Broadband interruptions can occur for a variety of reasons, and pricing depends on the package and contract terms in place.

Unresponsive/non-existent "Customer…

Unresponsive/non-existent "Customer Service". I've emailed three times with two separate issues. One i got an automated response to say they'd respond in 4 business days. It's beyond that timeframe now with zero word from them. The second issue, I had no response to my email and I've now been on hold for over 40 minutes with no answer.

We used to be with County Broadband before Truespeed took over a few months ago. County Briadband had great customer service. Truespeed apparently has none. DO BETTER TRUESPEED. It's not hard to improve on the current stand you have because it's rock bottom.
