An unbelievable experience wirth the best broadband provider in the UK bar none
I have used several failed ISPs in the past 10 years including sky, BT, virgin, and EE. Stressed and saddened by my poor broadband - my neighbour suggested PO Broadband as they have never been let down by the service and also mentioned their unbelievable customer support in which their problem was solved in one call when the agent successfully identified the microfilter being at fault. I have to say that three months in with the Post Office - this is by far the best provider in the UK and I would give them 6 out of 5 if it were possible. Getting started was so simple - their customer service is super quick with no less than 5 minutes waiting time per call with a friendly tech expert who is well informed and knows exactly what they are doing, the experience and knowledge shown was remarkable, and well above what is expected. They were also extremely friendly which helps. Unlike a lot of providers, late payments do not mean automatic switch-off of the service and the PO is very generous when it comes to paying back at a later more covenient time. The router is a modern, well-built Zyxel router that arrived on time. It is fast performing and not an eyesore in comparison to other routers. I am getting exactly as promised with 38 mgb/s. Me and my wife are able to use multiple devices at once and we just can't believe how efficient and fast this service is. What a brilliant company. Definitely renewing my contract next year. One up for PO Broadband.

I have been without internet for 8 weeks now have spoke to at least 15 different people, been lied to and when an engineer said he would come they did not turn up. It's not Xmas Eve and am still waiting for them to come, do not get this service very unacceptable

Impressively unreliable and slow. After complaining multiple times they finally got back after I had changed providers and refused and compensation. Shocking service and wouldn’t use again. With vodaphone and it’s much faster, reliable and cheaper

Acording to Wikipedia, the Soviet Union fell in 1991 - as such, the people of the USSR never had any ecperience with boradband. If they had, I imagine it would probably have been like our experience woth the Post Office.
The slowest and least reliable internet I've experienced since dial up.

I wish I'd read these reviews before I signed up for Post Office broadband. Yes, it's cheap but a false bargain in that the connection constantly drops out (6 times an hour on more than one occassion). I live alone, have a laptop and mobile phone and do nothing more than email and watch the iPlayer, so not a heavy user at all. I didn't bother complaning as on a couple of other occassions I found that a) any calls to Customer Service take more than half an hour to connect and b) I found their staff either pleasant but unable to help or just plain surly. I endured my 12 month contract for 11 months and paid an early exit fee to swap to John Lewis. It doesn't cost much more (£1), includes free evening and weekend calls and a £40 John Lewis gift card. The difference is like night and day! There was an initial problem with my connection and I was given a £30 credit for the inconvenience. I've been enjoying a fast and stable connection since and can hardly believe it. Surely all broadband offered in the 21 century should be like this? I feel sad for Post Office Broadband. Their poor service will be their downfall, probably resulting in job losses. I wouldn't recommend this "service" to anyone.

We used Post Office at our previous place which was fair and moved our subscription to Warminster. The download speed here is acceptable though less than what we pay for.
The UPLOAD speed is HORRENDOUS. On its best days it can do as low as 2 mbps, but from time to time it drops to 0.2 mbps. This is just ridiculous.
Raising tickets is useless, Post office closes them without touching anything.
I'm truly dissatisfied because that is unacceptably slow and unstable.

Problems from the very start - it took 4 visits from the engineer to replace all wiring from telegraph pole to the phone socket and still very slow service that kept dropping. Nex to be blamed was the cordless telephone - replaced at my cost - still the same. In all it took 3 months to get a useable service which only dropped out once a week or so and was a reasonable speed until after I told them I would not be renewing my 1 year contract when the speed was cut in half. Switched to plusnet and set up 3 computers 2 phones and smart tv in half an hour.Speed is fast and stable.

Avoid at all costs, terrible service, no response to emails and taken more than 30 days to fix a line fault. The Bt customers in my road had theirs done in 48 hours but then BT have signed up to the voluntary codes of practice with £8 per day compensation paid for outages. PO have not and it’s no surprise as they van not deliver.
