Back To Their Old useless Pathetic Roots.

Due to poor support and a lack of contact, I am writing this review. Around ten in the morning, I lost my 5G connection. I immediately reported the problem on the MyBroadband website.

Even after the morning, I still haven't heard back from them, so I messaged them again with? And only then did they respond, asking me to restart the router and verify the connection. I rep**** that the 5G connection wasn't resolved since if it was, why would I message them again?

The rain agent then asked me if there was a particular device or devices that weren't connecting (which is a ridiculous , stupid question because I mentioned 5G and they only gave one).

The call agent then asked me if there was a particular device or devices that weren't connecting (which is a ridiculous , stupid question because I mentioned 5G and they only give one 5G Sim and device).

The normal serving tower is the problem, they added, and the team has been made aware of it.

I reiterated that it is the 5G tower, not the standard serving tower, and that they only reported it to the team at approximately 4 p.m.

When I reported it in the morning, they could have done it immediately, but it took them a whole day to flag it with the team.

When the 5G tower was put into place, their service to me significantly improved, but now they are reverting to their previous practices and providing the worst support in history.

Never mind. It's ok now. Tower is up and running again.
So I spoke to Leila from billing yesterday about credit for the downtime I had and she said yes they will apply credit to my account and that I must just inform them when I am connected again so that they apply the credit to my account and let me know the amount.

So please advice her to work out the credit and apply it plus let me know how much credit it is please?

Then why was it not app**** to my account at the time you told me that the credit was app****????
So now there was more money deducted from my account! than what suppose to be deducted, thanks to you lazy, useless ********s!!!!

Tell me something, do you guys love it to take people's money no service provided? Is it fun?

Count my words, the day will still come when you guys will lose most of your clients. Well it seems like it is already happening according to the bad reviews on hellopeter.'
