Mark14th February 2017
Great service, great deal, great company
P Waterman13th February 2017
Company does not compensate for service disruption. Still charged when service is disrupted.
Over promised and under delivered
Pros:
Local call centre
Cons:
Buggy software has blocked outgoing phone calls. Speed very variable. 1Gig speed rarely delivered
Phil3rd February 2017
Currently in the process of switching to MyRepublic, which I'm regretting. So far, we've had one week of downtime with a very small window of uptime (a few hours) during that period. Any calls to tech support lead to a 15 minute wait where you'll eventually end up at reception with a promise somebody will call you back tomorrow. Emails seem to take one-two days for a response.
Cons:
No service.
Almost non-existent support.
Router provided with no set up instructions.

The absolute worst company we have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. We are in the process of breaking our contract as we are so unhappy with them. Any time you call their customer services (and believe me, there will be numerous times) you will get to speak to the receptionist who will assure you you'll receive a call back... Two days later.
No customer service. Speeds go from one extreme to the other. Paying for gig plan and most nights we end up with 30mbps. Of ...read more
Pros:
Cheap
Cons:
You get what you pay for.
Chris26th January 2017
Best ISP I've had so far, had problems with router keep losing connection, requiring it to be restarted, support would have been a bit slow for my liking if it was a 'no internet' situation, but the support was very knowledgeable
Pros:
cheap static IP
great speeds
customer support knowledge is good
Accurate and no surprise billing
Cons:
1Gig speed upgrade is too pricy for me
customer support can be slow to respond
Carl29th December 2016

Pros:
Awesome
Cons:
Customer service
Jay21st December 2016
average, nasty support
Roshan15th November 2016
Local Support, and technical expertise is awesome, and so is the Internet speed and bundle.
Pros:
Best $ deal compared to bullies like Vodafone and spark.
Cons:
can't get any faster speeds, but that's a chorus profiling issue.
Miranda15th November 2016
Super quick installation and they have been always willing to help. At the moment 3 of us are online (sometimes 4) and all of us have good speed - no lag. From signing up till installation was a matter of a week or so, they gave me vdsl while I waited the week for fibre. I expected SO much longer.
Pros:
Phones currently excess of 100mbps. Computer only 44mbps. So guessing it's my computer that's having an issue.
Any time I've had to contact the support team I got an english speaking person within a few minutes. Was imp ...read more
Cons:
Don't like the contract. Not that I'm planning on changing. But I HATE not have the option to.
