Will I ever get connected?

I have called iiNet every day for the past three days waiting for my Internet to be connected and I am getting no answer. Looking for other providers right now.

Am enjoying the fastest internet I have ever experienced.

The level of service is worthy of praise and I have been with the same ISP for at least 15 years and that says it all. In every instance where a problem arose a solution was found and usually with the minimum of fuss and delay.

I have been dealing with IINET since they began in Australia. Customer service is what keeps me here. Others may be cheaper but nothing beats the friendly effective service you can get here 24 hours a day.

Great Customer Service

published

Love that we can call them any time. Usually the wait isn’t too long, they always sort out my issue as best they can. Even when I missed payments because of COVID-19. I’ve called when my internet is down and usually they get it back up immediately

Trying times with WiFi

published

My connection has suddenly become very unreliable. Briefly, after I spoke to the very polite technician, my service worked. I am now almost continually on 4G. I begin going to settings each morning and lose WiFi walking from my bedroom to the kitchen. That is very disappointing. I may have to consider a different service.

Good speeds, Great help desk.

No dropouts, ever. But peak times speeds are slightly slower. Help desk was very helpful and fast. Price is competitive when compare to other providers. Overall we are happy with the service.

Go else where!

published

Generally has been good, but for the last month my internet has been horrible, Massive latency, less then 5 mbps no where near 100 mbps or 78.5 typical evening speed they advertise. Latency has also been a major issue, typically the connection reports 20-30ms ping but the last month has been between 700-1000ms!
Have been keeping a history/log of the issues, will be taking my complaint further and changing to a provider they can deliver what they promise.

No phone line for 5 hours

published

I was porting a number from another provider to iinet today. I was told the process would take 30 minutes to an hour. After nearly 3 hours of downtime I called iinet and was told it takes 30 minutes to THREE HOURS. I have now been waiting 5 1/2 hours with no phone line for my business. Switching to iinet is seeming like a big mistake if they can't even handle the basics.

Just don't bother. They are no better than anyone else out there, despite claims

published

Their Fronteir website crashes all the time. Their phone customer support just could not care less.
Like another review mentions: They make Telstra look good. I will change my provider as soon as life normalises again.
Isn't it amazing how everyone suddenly blames Covid-19 for their own inequities and short comings? POOR POOR POOR Iinet. Put your little Irish fellow on that rocket and send him to the moon.

It’s great

published

Have been with iiNet for about 2 years now and have only had one issue where we couldn’t use internet as it just didn’t respond even though connected. I called and had to leave my details for a callback that they said would be over an hour. I wasn’t thinking we would get the problem fixed that night. The issue was fixed within minutes of them calling me back within an hour so I was really Pleasantly surprised. Couldn’t recommend them enough.

I had a few dropouts (believe due to current situation with many people working from home in Australia). The Company response was very good apart from very long waiting. Customer service was polite and professional .

The ADSL connection was OK from iiNet end, but the copper line I had was bad.

published

I've got a medical device that is not working with iiNet NBN connection. For this reason, I had to change reluctantly the internet provider. But feeling that I am part of the iiNet family, left the emails in care of iiNet, did not move them to the new provider! In the 16 years since I was their customer, if it was any problem, I just called the brilliant customer service, and always the problem was resolved in the most professional way in the shortest time possible.
The email service is very good, as it is the whole iiNet internet provider. I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone.

I am assuming you are already with iinet and you are complaining about your speeds. Your question hasn't outlined if you have ADSL, NBN, CABLE, SATELLITE connection so we can't give you a reasonable answer. If you are on ADSL and are a long way from the exchange or the exchange is overloaded these things will slow your speeds down.

iiNet
Customer ServiceiiNet

Hey Charlie,

We never want to see customer's have a poor connection experience and some troubleshooting can go a long way.

We do have some excellent resources available for you, over at:

http://help.iinet.net.au

When you notice the issues occurring, or even before then, give these pages a long and try the troubleshooting steps outlined for the connection that you have. Give it a go and if they don't work, you're always welcome to make contact with us and we'll happily assist.
