Tells lies over the phone and email

published

Their advertising and descriptions dont make any sense. It states clearly that you can buy additional data blocks then goes on to contradict this in the fair use policy. I called and told them I wanted to cancel without a cancellation fee due to this false advertising and was told the fee would be waivered completely. Imagine my suprise when the next day some imbecile named [Name Removed] informed me that the "billing team" had decided to only waiver half the cancellation fee. To further compound my frustration [Name Removed] started having a back and forth arguement over email while claiming that I was "told" that this would be the case. Absolute disgrace honestly.

Don't sign with this company

published

Beware! They give you a month free at the start but take it back at the end! Charge for 30 notice even when not on contract and no longer connected stating that they have to pay the nbn for your service which no longer exists. Very kind of them to pay your full fee to the nbn. Crooked as a dog's hind leg!

Patchy service that at times does not hold up to working from home needs

published

If I could score 0 stars I would. Service is patchy and often drops out. Does not hold up to requirements for working from home. Service is terrible with no follow through on actions meaning that you will need to chase them for any resolution to issues. I would not recommend to anyone.

I would strongly advise not to use this company

published

If there was a score lower than 1 ipStar would score it. Took 16 weeks to get installed (in the end I had to contact Gavin Williams who heads up rural satellite for NBN Co to get it done.) This was on the advice of one of ipStars leadership team - ie they said the only way to get it installed was for me to target NBN Co on social media. Once installed it dosn’t work. I’ve spent @ 20 hours on the phone to them but despite their great intentions and the fact they seem like nice people they seem unable to actually make any positive progress on any issue. I would not recommend under any circumstances.

disappointed

published

Connection and speed have been wonderful. I was disappointed when I was sold a plan that didn't have enough data for me despite me explaining I steam you tube and netflix and am doing a several internet based courses. I used 50% of my data in 2 days.
I have had to wait a month to increase my data.
Would have been nice to have been heard when I first signed up.
I wont be recommending Ipstar.

Not that helpful, but thanks. My issue was being put on a plan that was insufficient for my needs and having to wait weeks to get upgraded. I do not have the ability to upload during off peak to my TV.

Definitely an improvement over ADSL

published

Transfer to Sky Muster Plus provided an improved VOI service with less dropout. New account website more informative and user friendly. Phone support has been very helpful, talking through account settings. Only concern is the inability to access extra data if limit is reached.

Great service

published

The service is reliable with great connection and good speed for satellite, haven’t had many issues but when had a few the support team helped when contact and offer support and help to fix the issue. Above all great service and great support team. Would happily recommend ipstar satellite for people who cannot access normal nbn due to where to they live. Keep up the great work.

Helpful personal service

published

We took out the service about two months ago and very pleased so far. The ease of arranging a plan, and the personal service - helpful, efficient and friendly - each time I rang have been excellent. The only negative is that I feel that their additional data blocks are a little over-priced, compared with another provider we have used in the past at another property.

Ipstar are legends!

published

I have been with Ipstar now for several years, and they have always been awesome! I called them today with a billing question and they sorted that out, then they asked if there was anything else they could help with, and I said "Well, actually...." and then they sorted out a technical issue that had just recently occurred! They are always friendly and very helpful, and patient with internet luddites like myself! Highly recommended.

Terrible service. Poor connection and terrible speeds. Was with iiNet and service and speeds were great! Changed to ipstar and have regretted it ever since. Will be changing provider if it doesn't improve dramatically.

fixing the internet

published

Sandy helped me fix the connection today with my router. He was very efficient as it was quite a process. Our connection is usually excellent but mostly is to do with the router and not the modem. There has been a few dropouts lately but you expect that with satellite. Ipstar is an excellent provider. Always very helpful and sorting problems out is never too hard.
