I can’t cancel my month-to-month plan.

published

I’ve been trying to reach out the customer centre, waiting for over one hour for several times to cancel my plan and couldn’t get through. How disrespectful!! I would never recommend Kogan as an internet provider. It takes less than 10 min to hiring the service and a life to get rid of it. If you don’t have enough staff working at the moment, give us the option to cancel the service on line.

Absent Customer Service

published

I totally understand the issues concerning Covid. However there is no simple option to update billing details. I have been calling for nearly 2 weeks. Every time on hold for over an hour, other times the call has not gone through. I need the internet for work and do not want to pay $15 or lose my connection just because no one answers my call. It is astounding there is no BPAY or online option to update our customer details.

When I finally did get through the customer service assistant told me she could not update my details she told me to call back in two weeks. It’s been two weeks and every time I call no one picks up or I am on hold for 1hr+. Absurd!

Can't talk to anyone to cancel!

published

I had bad/ no internet for weeks and couldn't get through to anyone to solve it. Eventually decided to cancel and couldn't get through to anyone to cancel! I listened to hold music twice a day for 2 weeks and it just timed out at over an hour and hung up. Really poor customer service, and no assistance available when the internet is down.

Is there any phone support personal left in the company? How is it possible to not answer for 2 hours?

published

Waited on the line for 2 hours today without anyone responding to the support call.
I can understand Covid-19 has an impact on businesses, but surely support team can work remotely from home and continue to respond on the phone calls. It is not acceptable service, if you need more people - please hire them, or your brand will be ruined forever with such a bad service.

Extremely poor customer service

published

Our Kogan internet was down since last night. I called Kogan internet customer service so many times and waited on the phone for hours but couldn't get through. I actually relied on the internet to work during the period of COVID 19! There doesn't have anyone at the call centre. Worst experience ever!!!

Horrible support and service

published

My Kogan NBN service has stopped for almost a week now.

Because of the Corona virus I am working from home. I have looked at their website to find a solution but am unavle to. I have tried to call their technical service, customer support etc. Non of the numbers work and they simply have a voice mail message refering me back to the website.

I desperately need internet access but am unable to get any support from Kogan.

What a horrible service!!!!

Cheap but slow - could be Covid19 to blame???

published

Finding it a bit slow lately but I'm guessing that's not Kogan so much as the load with people staying home. Before the last few weeks I didn't have an issue.

Deplorable customer service

published

Kogan have disconnected my service as i have been trying to call for over 2 weeks now and i am put on hold for a minimum of 1 hour before i am disconnected. I have wasted approx 12 hours of my precious time on hold waiting to pay my bill as there are no more avenues to pay the bill other than the 1300 number. What a disgrace Kogan i will be disconnecting my service and reconnecting with a professional internet provider.

How long the internet can work after I buy the package?

From my experience, the time it can take for the NBN connection to become active is about 5 working days. A little longer if you need to get cut over from non NBN technology. The order has to be submitted to NBN Co. for activation.

I had my NBN box installed with Kogan last Friday. Having been told that it would take until the end of the day to connect, that was revised daily until I was told yesterday it will be February 2020 because of cabling issues. Because the box was installed it has also cut the ADSL2 line so I now have nothing. This is where Kogan are really poor. They have no resolution team and just say it's not their fault. I wish I had gone with another provider. I would likely have the same NBN issue but perhaps an interim solution to get me through.

How long does it take to get connected for the first time? I'm waiting about a week now without a text or email other than first mail confirmation. I'm moving from Telstra to Koganinternet. Am I too late to read reviews, I feel bad when I read reviews about their service. Any idea, how long?
