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.

I wish I had read the other negative comments before I signed with John Lewis Broadband as my experience echoes theirs. OK at first, and then when the connection started dropping-out, so did the customer service. All the things listed by other users I experienced: broken promises; engineers not turning up (at all); compensation promises renegaded on and so forth. I chose John Lewis because of their reputation, as a brand, for customer-service and I think that 'their' broad-band is likely to do them considerable reputational damage. Do not sign up to this service (especially at the 'premium' price which they charge - it is a disaster).

Started ok, but after a line fault it took over 8 weeks to sort out, mainly down to customer service not being able to do anything other than what their computer screen said. As this service is run by plusnet, i'd stay clear of both.

OK as long as you don't need customer service. They locked me out of their email account due to a problem they discovered. A 15 minute wait on the phone (not too bad I suppose). New password issued. Tried to log in but it didn't work. Another call to "customer services". I was ot typing it in wrong so transferred to tec services. 45 mins later my battery dies. As I'm up at 5am I thought I would get through. High call volumes at 5AM !. By 6 AM my phone died. Saga continues...... John Lewis seems to have joined the race to the bottom that is UK customer services. We've had your money now sod off.

It's OK unless you need technical support, but the support is simply awful. 'Higher than expected call volumes' at 6.30am! Waiting for ages having to listen to loud awful pop music (who do John Lewis think their customers are?) that you can't turn down before you just give up. I'm going back to BT when my contract expires!

This company should be truly shameful and i would stay far far away from their broadband service.
I joined them on the 25th April and my activation date was 13th May, But on the 13th no bb so i contacted them and they said sorry it should be active by the 14th but that didn't happen so after a long time on the phone and a lot of messing about with routers and passwords they finally said they would send out an engineer the engineer never showed so JL (john Lewis) said they re-booked the engineer but again no show this happened 4 times and was escalated 3 times during that time, any company that escalates your problem more than once is not to be taken seriously. I phoned this JL up and canceled my account today due to the fact they are useless and have done nothing but waste my time i was in my 30day cancellation time by 1 day, but i cant seem to get any of my money back that they took up front. They are also sarcastic as soon as you request a cancellation.

Total disaster trying to get fibre. Discovered that Plusnet who are the JL service provided is much cheaper direct! JL even mucked up doing the MAC code!
Far better than BT but not up to usual JL standards

It took nearly a month to get everything working, they just don't seem to know what they are doing half the time. Poor service and even a bad attitude at times.I will be switching at the first opportunity.
This is NOT the standard you would expect of John Lewis

We have fibre broadband and the speed is excellent. Customer services is also excellent and free and are based in this country. Completely STRESS FREE. Everything was set up on the days quoted and I would recommend to anyone.
