The worst provider that I have been with. Connection speeds are so slow and absolutely awful when trying to search apps, always disconnects. Will NOT be renewing when my contract finishes

payment system nightmare as not accept direct debits and card payments have failed on many occasions down to their system error despite putting in new card their system fails to still take payments, so i get late payment emails, since day one . This is the only company which charges a £1 fee to change card as far as i know and takes forever to return it. If ever. Everything automated or online which is not good if problems. When signed up took 2 months to sort connection problems. when contract comes up for renewal, moving on never to return

Theives and liars. I don't believe for a second that this is an award winning service. Genuinely shocking customer service. I'm disabled and trapped at home and for that reason rely heavily on having internet. The day I was supposed to go live nothing happened. It was also the day my partner started an online college course which he ended up not being able to attend. I phoned up to try and see if there was anything Now Broadband could do to help, as when I signed up I explained my disability & how much I relied on the internet and they had assured me I would be connected smoothly.
I called them and was told that they had known three days earlier I wouldn't be connected on time but no one bothered to contact me. They said they would pass me to another department who may be able to help. I was spoken to like dirt by the member of staff I was passed to, who kept raising her voice at me despite me remaining calm. She said it was my own fault for not getting 'business broadband'? and kept telling me I needed to just deal with it. I was genuinely taken back by the way she was speaking to me, it's almost like she was taking my internet issue as a personal insult and became very aggravated and standoffish. I explained to her that I was worried because I am disabled I am dependent on having internet to be able to work etc and she started mocking me with her tone. I told her I was taken back by her unpleasant tone and asked to speak to a different advisor and she left the phone off the hook for a few minutes and then put the phone down on me, it was clearly a funny joke to her. I called back and was passed around in circles trying to find a solution and kept having more and more days added to how long I would have to wait to be connected. Inbetween all of this I looked Into lodging a complaint with Ofcom who suggested I ask them for a deadlock letter which would state that there was nothing more that they could do- they couldn't even provide me with this within the month!
Eventually I spoke to a lady who was much more understanding and told me that I wouldn't have my money taken or the contract started until I went live so not to worry- this was a relief. However the next day the money was gone from my account and I still had no internet! I phoned up to ask why they had taken my money without providing a service, when they had promised not to, and they couldn't give me a straight answer, I was told it would be another week until I was connected. At this point I was mentally exhausted with it and said I wanted to cancel and I wanted my money returned asap so that I can buy an unlimited SIM to hotspot from. They said I had to wait a week to cancel and up to four weeks for a refund! I can't even do a bank dispute because they have the charge as pending. I am absolutely disgusted. I now have no Internet for the foreseeable so I can't work, can't go to college, I have limited mobility so there really is nothing that I can do other than sit here and wait for them to resolve this and refund me. I can't even sign up to a new provider until they sort their mess out and give me the money they are holding back. Horrendous. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy.

Within a couple of months of subscribing my monthly cost has increased 11%. You can't quit without a penalty but they can put the rice u when they feel like it. They've got you by the short 'n curlies, right?!

Worst wifi I have ever had. Consider it a miracle when it doesn't break more than twice a day. Today is a new record, over 15 times off and on. Zero consistency.

Very disappointed, as I was shopping around for ages to find an affordable to fast broadband and found NOW. However, it took them nearly 3 weeks to get the 12 month contract started which resulted in lot of extra mobile internet expense and couple days after starting thew contract they don't me they will be raising their prices next month. Had I known that they aren't any cheaper than their competitors but are much slower, I would have never signed up.

Untrustworthy company with terrible morals and worse customer service. Few will renew with these guys once they have experienced their awful corporate culture.
In my case, did a 12 month deal and they increased price by 15% in 2nd month (whilst still giving new members the same price).
That is terrible form to any sensible person yet all the company have to say is "well leave then". But with a 30 day limit to leave without penalty that is easier said than done.
A remarkably awful company. Save your time and find a company with some morals.

First time customer to Now Broadband. Have never experienced a Customer Service as shambolic. Since joining last month I’ve enjoyed less than 24 hours of Wi-Fi . Firstly was told an engineer would be dispatched to investigate if there was a problem outside. When that was discounted another appointment booked for an engineer to inspect inside my property. Issue was resolved and less than a day later the Wi-Fi stopped working. Was told an engineer would come today between 8am and 1pm. I phoned to confirm and was reassured. No engineer arrived. At no point have Now contacted me to advise as to why no one has arrived and when the fault will be fixed. Phoned three times today and spoke to three different people who told me three different accounts of what has happened. Still waiting in vain for someone to fix it. Apparently I’ve to wait in my property form 8an to 6pm in the hope that Now can arrange an engineer but you guessed it ….They can’t guarantee it. It seems they have no way of contacting their engineers and no way of tracking them. After 6pm I’ve to contact THEM and let them know if anyone came out to my property!! If you want reliable broadband with any kind of reasonable Customer Services avoid this company.
