worst service

Stay away from Amobia. Since 2016 we are with Amobia. Always again experimenting difficulties in speed and no connection at all. You must phone every day for at least two weeks before you even get a ticket no. Technicians seldom come out and only if you really are willing to fight. The hotline will tell you that you need more speed and therefore must pay more. Mind you they are not capable of giving what you are paying for but want you to pay more in order to maybe receive what you are now paying for! If you are not willing to do that Amobia might send a technician out but you must pay for it. The first few months we had no connection at all because the router was faulty. They refused to send someone out. After months finally a technician came and was able to replace the router. Since then it works for months and suddenly the connection gets bad. Then the fight starts again. As I said at least two weeks of constantly phoning. The helpline will tell you that you are using too many devices or can't stream fims with 2Mbps. The technicians all say that this is utter bull**** once they do come out to fix the problem. When you tell the helpline that everything is possible IF things are working, they reply that you need more speed and must pay more. So they are clearly not listening or it is a easy way of getting more money out of the customers. In the time we are with amobia we have a 70% working connection. Every few months things go bad and nothing works anymore. Tired of this company. Tired of spending endless hours communicating again and again. Tired of telling my clients to wait for work they paid for because the internet is not working. Tired of spending money on data because the wireless does not work.

We have 2mbps since 2016. We were told this is enough for our needs. It is enough for our needs. IF THE CONNECTION IS WORKING! IT IS NOT WORKING!!!!!We watch netflix, showmax and others. We up and download stuff often at the same time. That you hide your respond indicates that you know your arguments are wrong. Why I as your customer not receiving what I am used to receive have to spend hours communicating with you is mind blowing! Explaining again and again and again that the connection IS NOT WORKING!!!!!Since weeks we can not watch a single film and this during lockdown. We had this issue a few times and every time your technicians could repair it because it was a router, a connection or a antenna problem. But only after weeks of phoning and writting someone does come out. Then it works again for a bit and then the trouble starts all over again. We do speedtest and it shows 2mbps, we can watch films and work. We do speedtest and its between 0,4 and 1,5 and constantly failing COMPLETLY for minutes, we can not watch a film or work.
I have the strong suspicion that this way you force your customers to upgrade. Seeing it is happening again and again no matter how often you were in the wrong. Telling us our connection is working when it clearly is not working, only offering us a paid upgrade as solution, refusing a technician, buth then if a technican comes out (after weeks of communicating) and repairs things showing that you are in the wrong you never appologize.

You do not stirve for the best connectivity and definetly not for the best customer service. The internet is not working! I do not care how often you send whatever to netflix, I am not interested. I watch netflix when the internet is working. IT IS NOT WORKING! You can not always see if the connection is good. We made the experience already with amobia several times. Everytime it takes ages until you send a technician out and everytime the technician can solve the problem. Because it is antenna, router oder connection related. Although you ALWAYS state that everything is fine from your side. You refuse to help, insisting everything is fine from your side. Fact is, IT IS NOT WORKING! Why can we watch films without any problems when the connection is working? Now we can not watch films anymore. The speedtest shows that we are not receiving enough speed and the connection disappears completly.
