    Avoid, avoid, avoid.. Well I say avoid, but if can even get them to install your Internet, then you have done better than me, over four months and all I have is a router and hole in the wall where the cable should eventually be,

    Our Gigaclear fiber optic WiFi works ok and appears faster and more reliable than our previous service. The initial package represented an acceptable value for money. When it cane to renew Gigaclear increased the costs by 40%. This new offer was 50% higher than the cost offered to a new customer. Gigaclear customer service were not interested in loyalty, in fact the representative even indicated that was their business model; lure customers in on a good deal and then raise the price at contract renewal. There are limited options in this area but I will not be renewing with Gigaclear again and would not recommend the company to anyone.

    Gigaclear have no empathy or concern for peoples safety let alone providing a service,
    In November 22 they installed underground fibre to our village and in the process dug up across both our driveways, I was assured by the workman that in a few days someone will return and make good the entrance's as they were left in a very poor state extremely muddy & uneven with no way of walking across safely.
    Despite dozens of phone call and emails & providing photos not one person made an effort to call or email back to resolve the dangerous state they left the entrance to my property in. This is despite us informing them my 82 year old mother fell trying to negotiate crossing the mudded entrance and now we have had a more serious injury which i have informed them of . I was promised a senior member of staff would contact me immediately & yes you guess totally ignored again .
    So they have left me know choice to go to social media and will be reporting it to our local highways and council.
    As a large company and the gravity of the situation i would have expected some care & compassion.

    The area housing the green box has been dug up twice now, each time leaving a desolate area. This am an electrician came to connect the box ignorant of the fact that it had been DIDCONNECTED (2nd hole) What is wrong with gigaclear? You appear to be useless and hopeless.

    Extremely poor and I would avoid if you can. Our internet has been continuously down every afternoon for 4 weeks. We've had weekly engineer visits and it is still not fixed. I was told I would get
    a 4G dongle after it was down for 10 days but when I chased up and they said we don't have any available as the engineers are using them all and I would be placed on a waiting list. Gigaclear promised compensation but it's just an empty promise. They haven't acted on it. You call and they say a senior manager will contact you but no one does.

    When it's working it's great. When it fails, there is no sense of urgency to resume service. Engineers to not turn up for allotted times and customer services are dysfunctional. Phone calls are never returned. Competitors needed!

    Not sure about the speed and reliability of the broadband because we never got that far. All friendly and helpful when I phoned to get the discount deal they offered, but awful after that. Booked a date in Dec22. Given a time the engineer would arrive, so we knew we had time to pop out for a quick lunch. Only just as we've ordered our lunch a good 1.5hours before the appointment they call to say they are on site. I can't leave and they couldn't wait so they went to another site and didn't return. I had to find a way myself to book another day through their portal. Only one available was 2 months later. New date arrived. I checked the portal to make sure I had the right date. Portal said yes and it's an AM appointment before 12:00 and engineer will be in touch will actual time. 12:00 came and gone. 12:52 engineer asks if 13:30 is good. He had been given PM. Concerned this is only a sign of things to come I decided to stay with exiting provider Zen Internet, maybe supposedly a bit slower but super reliable and forthcoming with excellent customers service.

    Went start of Nov22 finally fixed 2 months later.
    Terrible customer service.

    And now a month after fixing is dead again!!

    Still waiting for an acceptable compensation offer.

    Beyond bad service where simple basis diagnostic checks just didn’t happen, in my opinion.

    Total waste of time! No service after 3 months and are now saying they would need to replace 50 meters of the conduit they put in to make it work! Stay with who you have if it works for you!
