Used Wessex for 3 years, whilst Initially we got a good signal it now drops out randomly and is unreliable for work calls over Skype/Teams/Zoom etc. 5/6 times a day my laptop reports poor network quality and I have to abandon work calls. On demand TV/Films unavailable or bad pixel quality for whole evenings/afternoons. Various reasons given by customer service do not give me confidence that they can fix the issue and for £700+ per annum and a high installation charge you’re probably better off using a mobile network to hotspot your internet service. This approach - on an unlimited data bundle you can still watch TV/Films on demand for less than a third of the cost of Wessex. I’m now paying less than a third of what I was for a comparable 20mbps speed- I’ve never had any ‘super fast’ speeds of 30-50 mbps. Be careful before overpaying for 5G service which is worse than 4G or standard broadband.

Wessex Internet are great at communicating with you, until they have taken your money.
I had Wessex Internet install a dish on the 22nd of January to use their 'wireless' service. Since then the service has been completely below standard. The service offers poor latency, and the 50Mbps they promise is a complete lie (for reference, I have run 3 speed tests over the past half an hour through different services that have given me no higher than 4.9Mbps download speed (literally less than a tenth of what I'm paying for).
I have complained to Wessex Internet numerous times about the service, but all of my emails have been completely ignored.
If you are considering this service; don't. Save your money and go elsewhere with a more reliable and trustworthy company.
