Cannot seems to disconnect from this company
Eight months ago I moved house and disconnected by home phone with Soul and did not reconnect it anywhere else. After 3 months of calls to stop getting bills I did not generate and debt collection notices I finally stopped getting any correspondence from Soul in Jan 2018. Now I have received notice from iinet that my home number and account is being transferred from Soul/TPG to them. I am again on the phone to Soul/TPG and iinet all whom say it is the other parties responsibility to update their records and deactivate my account and number. What do I have to do to end this annoyance!!!

Terrible service
I was with My Soul for years. I had to call them to reset my password and that turned into a huge saga. It takes too long to get through but otherwise you can't even connect. I disconnected from them and had to call few times to get a refund on the credit that was on the account. I will never use them for anything ever again.

Souless fone company
After five years of having problems opening their monthly email invoices, ditched them today after discovering they had restricted my home telephone service because I hadn't updated an expired credit card...and charged me $11 for the experience. While Soul's sister company, TPG, managed to send me a separate email (to their bill) asking to update my card for internet and mobile fone services, Soul buried their request in a monthly invoice.....which I couldn't open. End of the day, after years of being a good customer who pays by direct debit ea...Read more
ch month, couldn't believe the attitude of person on the end of the fone in, I think, the Phillipines, when I asked her to wipe the 11 bucks. Three hours later I was a new Internode customer. Goodbye bad attitude. Not complete rip-off merchants Shocking invoice software and bad call centre attitude to customersSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Wont compete as they don't have the services
For the past 3 years I have been a customer to SOUL communications who I entered into a contract to supply my household with home phone and internet services. I have been billed by the company in the area of $70 per month for these services. I understand that in the past the company has evolved into SOUL and TPG which has split my bills.
I have recently begun enquiries to bundle my internet and home phone service. My initial calls to both TPG and Soul I was unable to be assisted as it was not understood by the operator what I was requesting ...Read more
or that I was a customer and receiving bills from both companies. It took me several phone calls to each TPG and SOUL to finally have a TPG operator acknowledge I have an account and transferred my call to SOUL. Irrelevant of the cross ties and drama’s between each company there should be a workable solution for the customers that have had accounts prior to any buy out or merger between the companies. I am now left with the response, even though TPG and SOUL currently have my account separately, that I am unable to be assisted with being supplied a phone and internet package. How can a business, that only exists through customers using services and paying their accounts, turn people away? I am currently being supplied and am paying for these services how come you cannot offer a current package? The last response from an operator, when I asked why I couldn’t have a bundle organised between the companies seeing as neither could do this singly, was virtually “we can no longer help you.”Similar opinion?

The worst organisation that i have ever had the misfortune to deal with, have been to the ombudsman 3 times to solve disputes with them.
Nothing to like about it.
Bad line quality, shocking service, operators dont understand english & are rude, when you ring them expect at least a 15 minute wait listening to their ads.

Go through a different company,all this company has done to me is stress me out.its highway robbery..ive waisted more time phoning them and it's all been a waist of time.
The price is great if you only pay one bill
Phone waiting is long and they hang up on you when you have been on hold for 40 minutes,that really makes me angry.they have been sending me other phone bills with my name and address with a different phone number.now i have a bad credit rating for refusing to pay bills that are not even mine and soul have done nothing about it.i don't mind paying my own bill but not somebody elses.i just can't afford that.

Terrible service, untrue to their promise of a capped plan and very quick to charge overdue fees when no bill sent.
Easy to connect to.
A capped plan is not actually "capped". Did not receive bills on two occassions over a period of 18 months and then were charged late fees on the account on both occassions. No-one at the company seems to be "Australian" constantly talking to people who "don't understand" or don't care.

As everyone else says, getting through to speak to the sub-continent operators takes over an hour. If I have to call their so called customer service I generally call it, put it on speaker phone and then go about my business as I know they won't be answering anytime soon. Also they don't answer emails, so don't even bother using this service as advised by their website. Their operators always need to put you on hold to talk to their 'supervisors' or 'other technical department' to resolve issues (if being on hold for >1 hr is not enough) only t...Read more
o be told they will get back to you (they don't). Also their bills generally always contain errors so you need to extra vigilant. I recently had the experience of them back charging me for 7 months worth of calls / fees etc because they forgot to charged me on the monthly bills. No explanation - just pay up. If you do happen to resolve a glaringly obvious error on the bill which they can't deny (like being charged a mobile plan disconnection fee when you've never had a mobile with them) they inform you that it will be subtracted from not this bill, but the subsequent bill. So you still must pay for their error upfront. Also they don't offer any phone bundling discounts for phone / broadband connections. So in summary - see you later Mysoul I'm off to another provider. (p.s - I only gave them 2 points because the dial up is good) Still on an old $29.99 home + free unlimited dial-up plan. Dial-up gets through nearly everytime & seems to be getting faster now that everyones going over the broadband. The phone works. Customer Service is woeful. They don't answer emails. They make constant billing errors (always in their favour).Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

i would never recommend this carrier, i have home and internet package and each month i am incorrectly billed, then when i refuse to pay until problem is fix they suspend my service and i only get about 2 weeks of the months usage but because i am on a 2 year plan i can't bail for another 18 months and have to pay full bill or i am slugged with a 1200 contract cancelation fee. the internet drops out all the time and when you have your bill infront of you, your records of calls made and you make you point clear and prove beyond any doubt that soul has stuffed up instead of an appoligy the operator will hang up on you.
the lack of service, the constant incorrect billing, having to spend hours on the phone sorting problems

Soul needs to be more efficient, and follow instructions so as not to make so many mistakes.After all they are a communications company.
I have a mobile phone for emergences. l can store photos and addresses in the phone for filling out forms.
it takes at least 40 minutes to get though by telephone and then they run you around for an other half an hour. The person on the other end of the phone usually can not detour from the script that they have in front of them .If you ask them another question and they are usually very hard to understand, as...Read more

If you are thinking about using this company my advice is DON'T. Their customer service sucks, if often takes days to contact them by phone and when you do they can't even speak English properly. I thought Telstra was bad but, this company is s#*t!!!!!
Absolutely nothing.
Everything.

Very slow response to call speed was slow but did not mind for the price but now I can not get a bundle without paying out my contract which they broke! Tried ringing but got un english person who did not know what I was trying to say just kept telling me how good TPG would be not here with my line so far from the exchange just A LOT less usage!
joined because they offered unlimited broadband for $29.99 if bundled with home phone was good while it lasted did have to wait over 30 mins to talk
Joined up with TPG wanted to put me on 1G with 5G of peak for same price. Gave me an opt out but not for my home phone so can not bundle without being penalised

Do not even consider this mob as you will regret trying to save a few dollars. Their service is appalling and you cannot contact them. Their rating should be negative they are that bad.
Poor customer service, actually there is no customer service. Will not answer emails. After 30 minutes on the phone on hold I gave up. Rather than answer a written letter they put the collection agency onto me. The worst company I have dealt with ever.

overall a more simple simple compony to belong too both for phone and internet.
very little problems with account compared with others tryed.
Basically very good for dial up and dial up phone package havnt had too many major problems
Sight takes long time to load and offen will not load before time out. basically over the phone service most of them have hard time understanding what the problem is. keep your explaination short and they may do. thear pricing list on internet and phone dial up and broudband have got much more complicated.

This company should be extinct! Every time you call them for service you could be waiting at least 20 to 30 minutes. And this did not happen only once, it was every time I called! Other times the line would just say that they're busy and to call back later....frustrating! I only ended up with them because I was with Digiplus who was taken over by Soul...but I soon got out once I saw how bad the service was. And even when I only had one month left on the Digiplus contract, they wanted to charge me a cancellation of $66! Ridiculous!! Stay away from them!
Very poor slow service

Sustained bad customer care quickly tries the patience of the most long-suffering and accommodating consumer. Two weeks of non response to a simple request have me looking elsewhere for a reliable mobile phone contract, even though it may mean cancelling this one 6 weeks ino its renewal.
I was on a B phone mobile plan for a few years - the switch to Soul was smooth and almost unnoticable until I needed to replace my SIM card.
I doubt Customer Service exists. I have phoned many times throughout the course of the day over fifteen days, sometimes ...Read more
