Cannot believe the poor broadband speed. Made mistake of changing from BT (great speed, poor customer service) to JL broadband and am regretting my move. Now stuck for 12 months until I can change back. I would not recommend JL at all.

If you're considering moving to John Lewis broadband because of the brand reputation for quality and customer service, THINK AGAIN. The move into phone and broadband must have been a disaster for JL and if I was in charge of brand I'd be getting out as quickly as possible. As their customer I will be getting away from them as quickly as possible. Service is AWFUL. Response to dealing with problems is AWFUL. Yes their call centre is based in the UK but I've seen more competence from call centres everywhere else than I've had from John Lewis. And it's only possible to get them on a free phone number, fine if you've got a landline but if they've cut off your landline and you're calling from a mobile you'll spend a fortune. Which they won't refund you for. To sum up JL broadband in three words: AVOID. AVOID. AVOID.

I after many years with BT I migrated to John Lewis Broadband because of cheaper advertised prices and the excellent customer service received at their stores.
Unfortunately it's been a disaster: fibre line speed is less than before - 60% worse for upload, customer service is terrible - John Lewis stores don't want to know about problems and JL Broadband doesn't care nor resolve issues.
Since I moved in December 2014 there have been 4 outages, including one today for 4 hours and counting.
I can't wait for my year's contract to expire so I can return to BT.

Somewhat of a let down for the John Lewis brand....
The customer service is great when you talk to somebody - all the agents have been thoroughly helpful - however you need to call them far too often. The speed is ok sometimes but is frequently dropping to an unusable level. For fibre I'd strongly recommend going elsewhere and given our phone has had a line fault for the majority of the last 6 months I can't recommend the phone either. Overall: terrible.

Don't touch them with a bargepole. The most unreasonable and unhelpful company I've had the displeasure to deal with. I ended up pulling out just before the cooling off period finished and even then they made things difficult and wouldn't acknowledge my request and tried to direct debit money from my account.
You have been warned.

I signed up for Fibre broadband with them a month ago and to date still no service. I have had a clueless BT engineer turn up, have spent hours on the phone with the Plusnet customer support and have been given a modem and am now on the second router. Still no service. Have now given up and will try to get my money back and go with Virgin.

Absolutely appalling customer service from a company that boasts of its reputation in dealing with customers. I suggest that they may wish to review there partnership with Plusnet or lose loyal customers. I will never again shop with John Lewis in any respects.A shame after 20 years. Reputations are quickly lost.

For the higher price we expected a better customer service from John Lewis however the service is no better than a much cheaper provider. Yes you speak to a uk call centre but only if they answer the phone - after about 5pm it will take an average of 13mns to get an answer. Overall all companies seem to be the same -at the mercy of Openreach and therefore you should just choose the cheapest provider.
