Joined JL 3yrs ago and it has up till now been good. However it is now abysmal fault calls being ignored even though when the contract was agreed for minimum 3mbs ( the most we could get at the time)they now say they have re-written the contract down to .9mbs ( no notice given) currently it won,t even register to test. This is how they treat key worker 2hr requirement needs!
AVOID AT ALL COSTS they could not care less. PLUSNET have to be one of the worst

I changed to JL broadband after daytime connectivity issues with my previous supplier during lockdown. JL broadband is, if anything, worse than my previous connectivity and is problematic not only during the day but in the evenings too. Furthermore, one of the features offered by JL at sign up was a JL gift voucher, which has not materialised after two months since signing up with them.

BE WARNED! This is John Lewis in name only. I was tempted by what seemed like a good price and by the JL reputation for quality and customer service. Once you've signed up John Lewis drops out - the contract is with plusnet.
Slow broadband and regular loss of signal. Customer service is terrible - if you can get through!
A big mistake. The worst ISP I have ever experienced.

Signed up so I would be able to work from him as soon as I had moved in. Was told I would be called regarding my complaint. Never was. It turns out they didn’t put the order through so lost £££ in buisness. As way of compensation I was offered 2months free internet but still paying line rental (so about £6 off) very annoyed. Internet isn’t even reliable or strong. Wish I could get out of this now but can’t.

When I moved house I called JL to take the boradband to the new address. 2 weeks later I was expecting it to be working. When it wasn't I called to find out why only to be told the order had not been put through their system. I was told someone would call me to rectify this - they did not and when I called back to try and re-order the broadband package, I spoke to someone who was very patronising and not at all apologetic. I gave up and signed up with someone else as I felt the experience had been so poor.

Have been a customer for phone/broadband for a few years with no problems. However, this all changed when I tried to upgrade my connection to fibre. Placed my order on 3rd June and as of today, (25th June)I have, at the moment no internet whatsoever. It is too painful to re-live the problems here but briefly, after activation, (which was late due to the order being incorrectly cancelled at their end|), my speed dropped from 1.7 mgps (ordinary broadband) to 0.4 mgps, ('fast fibre'). I have contacted John Lewis every day for the past 3 weeks; I have always been the one who has needed to be pro-active otherwise we wouldn't have even got this far. As we all know, John Lewis ride on the back of PLusnet, who are currently doing all they can to trash the brand. My only hope is that this continues for another week or so and my contract will become cancellable due to their inability to provide the promised product.

Still waiting for connection JL have no effective communication links with BT who supply the infrastructure service and as a key worker moving home I needed my BB ASAP to maintain my NHS role during my 1st week off since COVID -19 . A request by JL to BT to expedite my connection was made but declined as I had a live service ... live meaning the previous owner had a connection but not one I could ever use or access so I actual fact very dead ( sounds very much like a Monty Python sketch) Now after 2 weeks I’m still waiting for my BB as they also forgot to send out the router.
This was the only utility I had any problems with during my move and not only very inconvenient but time consuming meant where I should have been able to work from home whilst getting straight I couldn’t . Ever hopeful of one day getting a connection but STILL WAITING.......

Never had any issues with speed or connection. Got a free google home mini for joining. Some small issues setting up due to disconnect in processes: open reach don’t leave until it is working, but JL said they don’t activate until they’ve left and marked it done. Called up JL and got open reach to speak to them. They raised the price a few pounds after around 6 months which was annoying. And it gives you the option to change payment details online but it didn’t work so I connected JL and they said it can’t be done online.

AVOID IF YOU CAN!! I have tried to set up a fibre installation with them. We agreed on a date for the engineer to come (within 5 days) but suddenly decided to change the visit up to 2 weeks later (without asking me for permission). This is completely unprofessional. I called them back and they tried to explain it with the National situation. Well we all understand what is happening with the virus at the moment So just tell me the truth from the beginning don’t lie to me. How can I trust a company who lies. They are 100% unreliable. The only positive thing is that I could cancel my account as quick as I created it.
