The best customer service I've had online
I. was looking for a new provider because my current provider could not understand my problem, nor did they really try. I requested a call back and all I got was an email saying they had "resolved the problem". I thought that was pretty good as they still didn't even know what the problem was .... :D
After trying one or two providers on the phone and a few more on-line, I was about to give up, as none of them could understand what I was trying to tell them.
Then I found SkyMesh. I rang and nearly straight away got a young lady who could n...Read more
ot have been more helpful, even though I did call the wrong department. She then transferred me to a young man who then filled in all the blanks. He told me that I possibly had faulty NBN equipment and would report it straight away if necessary. I signed up and after connection was completed, I have not looked back. My previous provider was getting up to speeds of around 20mbs. It was good .... or so I thought.Then the covid19 virus struck. Then it went down and down until there was total nothings during peak times of the day. I found this SOOOOOO frustrating as I work from home. At night I gave up trying to watch a movie on Netflix. Anyhow. Thanks to SkyMesh I have speeds over 50mbs ALL THE TIME and no "drop-outs" at all through peak times. With their phone service and provider service, I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Excellent Customer service and able to solve an issue iiNet and NBN could not.
Skymesh were able to rectify a mistake made by iiNet and that iiNet subsequently refused to help me sort. Very helpful customer service team that listen and don't follow scripts.

AWESOME!
We have had various internet providers over the years, however, Skymesh has been superior to all. Both their services and their prices have been excellent for us. I highly recommend.

Great value, great service. Would highly recommend
Connection has always been good, even in really bad weather. Always notified well in advance to any upcoming maintenance. Would love to have unlimited data but in the country so may take a while.

Terrible
everyday the internet drops out sometimes for periods up to 8 hours in which time i also have no phone available, i have a 25mbit plan but barely reach 5mbit at any time of day or night, customer service refuses to help and blame everything on nbn co, try another company if you want what you pay for

The positive reviews here are obviously fake.
Take a few minutes to read the positive reviews and then the negatives and make your own mind up. What reviews sound authentic to you? If you have a connection issue Skymesh will simply tell you to perform some redundant tests and then ignore you. QUOTE: "As we have not been contacted by you further in regard to this issue, this ticket is due to be closed in two days." I got that immediately after being promised someone would contact me about our problems.

name. Just to be clear our ticketing system does not operate as you have previously experienced. Our ticket queues are audited prior to closing. The trouble shooting that is required is to help our clients with their connections are mostly based on NBN requirements. We can not escalate to them without the required information. Please send through that direct message and we can go from there. Thanks Adelei have looked at my ticket history and i can see examples of tickets being closed shortly after I was told someone would contact me.

connection dies daily outside or support hours compounded by poor peak hour speeds
as stated in title, my connection drops almost daily, sometimes up to an hour.
whenever i have contacted technical support, they have pushed the blame to nbn, which very well might be true, but saying this after making me perform the "list" during every call.
peak hour speeds (1500-0100) connection speeds drop to under 8mbps (paying for 25).
if ur going to get nbn, you would be better off forking out for a fibre connection and stay away from fixed wireless.
(also written on mobile as connextion has been down the last 3/4 hour)

Put your money on the box and go away.
I have been with Skymesh since the NBN was made available in our area, so roughly 18 months. The NBN service was on very rare occasions faster than our ADSL connection it replaced, however the majority of the time it is a lot slower and less stable. That's the NBN and it's flaws. Now on to skymesh: I have requested support on a few occasions now with nothing being resolved. Potential customers should be aware support is very limited with skymesh. Their support staff will ask for you to perform patronising and redundant tests. Once you report o...Read more
n the results of these pointless tests they will go silent on you and close the support ticket. It is apparent to me they have no technical support capability and have no relationship with the NBN staff to problem solve. I did try to be open minded about the problems with the NBN and went with it anyway but it is apparent to me the NBN is complete failure and Skymesh seem happy to hide in the shadows and take your cash.3 comments

Skymesh NBN Wireless speeds unsatisfactory - cancelled in the first month.
Skymesh personnel are friendly and pleasant but phone waiting times are too long. As far as the service is concerned, they are defeated by NBNCo.
I was paying for 50/20Mb/sec speeds but even at the quietest times it's never achieved better than 24/1 (yes - upload speed less than 5% of what I was paying for).
I've now cancelled the account after 3 weeks of stuffing around - hours spent on troubleshooting and 2 mornings hanging around waiting for NBNCo techs who don't always turn up.
Skymesh NBN might be OK in your area but the product they have for me (NBN wireless) is fatally flawed.

Close as one can get to the tower still crap speeds
Would be within 400m of the tower, don't get maximum speed 25 megabit, do get dropouts probably a couple a day, takes over a day for them to call me back and when they do they ring once if I'm out they won't ring back so I have to go through the whole process again it's quite terrible... I've been with a few ISPs.

Very satisfied long time Skymesh customer.
Have been using Skymesh as my ISP for at least 12 years, originally a satellite service and when NBN fixed wireless came to our area I have been using that service. On the odd ocasion I have needed service it been very quickly fixed with the added bonus of being able to speak to Australian technician based in Australia. I have no problems with thoroughly recommending Skymesh.

been with Skymesh since NBN came to our area, had a few hick ups in the beginning mainly faults of NBN. Their communication is great, pricing is very good and the fact one gets to speak with an Australian every time is worth every cent to me. We have to support Australian companies

No NBN for a week
I have been without NBN for a week and left numerous technical support messages without any call back.
When there was no sign of a fix, I requested billing not to withdraw money from my account until NBN was restored.

Just has the NBN satellite system Installed and it all proceeded well. Technician seemed to know his stuff and very helpful. I had service connection within a couple of hours. In terms of how good the system is - it's early to tell. After reading a few of the negative reports, I will admit to having some concerns, but time will tell.

It’s a shame to see a good ISP go to waste
Used to be a big fan of SkyMesh, but since being acquired by BBB (UK satellite company), I can no longer support them. Speeds quickly worsened and support queues blew out. Plus, their plans are currently just about the worst value I can see out of any nbn provider.
Plus, when troubleshooting speed issues with them, it took 6 months for them to advise us that nbn tower congestion was evident. Yes, this wasn’t their fault for slow speeds, but it was their fault for poor support. Aussie Broadband figured this out after 1 day, and called me back the next. There are so many other options.
If you’re considering SkyMesh, my advice is - don’t.

Questions & Answers
Brian Gasked
What is the initial setup cost if I switch from Telstra adsl to Skymesh at baffle creek 4674
2 answers
SkyMeshSkyMesh
Hey Brian, all our plans come with free setup and a free standard installation. Your first bill is just your chosen plan, plus a Wifi router if you opt to purchase one. I checked a few addresses in baffle creek and they were serviceable by Sky Muster satellite, but to accurately ascertain service availability at your property for Fixed Wireless specifically, please call our friendly sales team on 1300 759 637 and they'll be able to confirm this in minutes.
We hope that helps.
Thanks
SkyMesh
I already had a Skymesh satellite and needed it replaced because of the nbn. Telstra was not an option for me as they only do it through your mobile phone connection and I have poor, intermittent signal at home. $119 was all I paid for a new wifi router, everything else for Sky Muster was free.
