Extremely poor service - have to find another provider
Received an email from support saying they were discontinuing my service. Due to a tower in my area being decommissioned. Cant help me with any other options NBN etc. I cancelled my phone loan to join this company. I received the email late on Friday. Rang them Saturday, spoke to a person who said there was another tower we can connect to. He was going to put in a request for someone to come out and turn my antenna so. No emails. nothing. Rang up and was told that the second tower was also being decommissioned. The would not tell me w...Read more
hy but I suspect it has everything to do with $$$$$. Very poor customer experience. Now have to start from scratch, reconnect my phone line and find another provider. I would not recommend this company at all. They are focussed on the dollars and dont care what happens to their customers.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Caused Water Leaking, Not Tell the Truth, Irresponsible Very Very Very Upset and Disappointing...
We use Uniti Wireless and they installed their Antena on the roof our newly built house, which costs us almost one million dollars to built (after Uniti installed their Antena, nobody has ever come to our roof and thus Uniti is the last person who came to our roof). However, in our beautiful new home, there has recently been water leaking on our upstairs living room ceiling around where Uniti Antenna is located.
We contacted Uniti and they sent a guy to inspect. After that, Uniti claimed there is no roof title being broken and thus water leaki...Read more
ng has nothing to do with their Antena installation. We also contacted our home builder (award-winning). They reckon, based on their long industry experience, that the last person who came to our roof must have broken something. The builder recommended a licenced and experienced roof inspector from Boral Roofing to inspect the water leaking issue. The experienced and licenced roof inspector from Boral Roofing came and inspected the issue. He identifies two causes of the water leaking issue. First, there is indeed a broken roof title and there is evidently silicone applied to the broken roof title. The silicone exactly matches with the silicones applied to the drills surrounding the Uniti Antena. Second, the silicones applied to the Uniti Antena was not properly done. There is some space at the bottom such that water can sneak in. All of these are evidenced by photos and the experienced and licenced roofing inspector. We have sent photos as evidence to Uniti, have been calling them several times, and have been requesting that Uniti be responsible for whatever damage that has been caused to our new and beautiful house . But what we have received is simply cold ignorance. We are very very very upset that Uniti does not tell us the truth when there is indeed a broken roof tile and just attempt to cover this issue by silicone, which makes the water leaking last longer and get worse. We are very very very disappointed with the cold ignorance and irresponsible attitude Uniti has been showing to their customers.

Shame they don't provide the service they promise
Dropouts are an all too common occurrence. I signed up with Uniti as a protest towards the NBN and after a recommendation. As with many internet companies it's fine until something goes wrong. If I can get through to support at all it takes over an hour to get through. They claim not to offer support for modems and routers that they don't supply. The one they supply is made by the Chinese company Huawei, that doesn't have good reviews. I believe I made a mistake choosing Uniti, and unfortunately I've signed a 3 year contract with them.

Legal Organised Theft?
After having been made to endure and array of instructions, guidances and excuses it took well over a week to get a level of service that could be used at all. When we did get service it was very good for a few hours .... the speeds then got choked to an average of 28% of the speeds contracted for. Such behaviour is, if anything, disgusting, dishonest and frustrating!

Sneaky terms and conditions
Not a bad service, though we were getting quite frequent outages at one point.
However, I was under the impression I was on a “Flexi” plan and should be able to cancel at any time and paid more for that privilege. When moving to a new place, I went to cancel well before my rollover date and was told that I needed to give 30 days notice which essentially meant I would need to have told them I was cancelling before my lease contract was even finalised to avoid being charged for an extra month. 30 days seems like an excessive amount of notice to need to give for cancellation and I believe this is a sneaky tactic to try and squeeze extra money from customers. Very disappointing.

Stay in Sydney, we don't do business like that on the Gold Coast
I also was transferred to Uniti from Pivot without any notice. My billing has been on a regular cycle for 4 years, no contracts, no dramas. Uniti has shut down my service without notice. I had no idea of the company sale, nor did I know that Pivot did not transfer the payment system.
My suggestion Uniti, stay in Sydney where you belong. We don't do Business like this on the Gold Coast.

Unreliable. Upload/Download speeds drop for no apparent reason
Every 1 or 2 months our upload and/or download speeds drop for no apparent reason. Recently our connections to our home automation were timing-out or crawling-along. We have used Uniti's Health Check and Ookla Speedtest to confirm our upload speeds were less than 40% of our plan. This last support request (via email) went un-answered.
Just before Christmas 2018 we lost all internet. We checked every thing here and had a technician climb on our roof. It took 2 minutes for them to fix it once they work out that the problem was at their local tower.
Service was reduced to a dribble again later in Jan 2022.
Apart from the issues Uniti can control, our local tower seems to have its share our power outages too.

Beyond Useless
I was transferred to this useless mob from pivot without my consent. Live at coomera waters gold coast. I have Allegedly gone beyond my limit without notice. They dropped my speed. I only found out after i called pivot that they had transferred me across. So i called and complained. after nearly a week of constant phone calls they have not fixed the problem that they created. they have not communicated with me what so ever unless i call. They keep throwing in my face that they require up to 48 hours to do something. it has been well over that and still have not heard anything. Beyond useless. Going to the telecommunication ombudsmen. Just a bunch of useless scammers.

Product recall not managed well
Unfortunately some of the Uniti boosters have been recalled and the recall process has been difficult, to the point where I am considering taking my chances with the potentially faulty device. The options for returning the item include buying a box yourself, providing the box dimensions to someone via ema who will then generate a label for you to print out. Then a trip to the Post Office. Or dropping off the unit to a depot that is many suburbs from where you live. Either way, you are out of pocket and then have to wait an unspecified amount ...Read more
of time to receive a replacement unit. So to sum up: some out of pocket expenses, a limited internet service in the house due to no booster, and then no timeframe for getting a new one. All after paying $199 for the booster and of course the monthly data package. Uniti, you could learn some lessons in customer service from Amazon.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Used to be good but got burned
Service was actually good, was on a 50/10 plan, 2 year contract and recommending to friends and family. Would have tied m over nicely to NBN rollout in my area but 6 months in I received a disconnecton notice because the tower I was connected to is getting demolished. No other options provided, refused to reimburse any of the $1200 I paid to remove trees to get the connection in the first place. no contribution to another connection or offer of another service, just "sorry, you are on your own".

Was a 5* now a 1*
I was on board with Uniti and recommending it to friends, family etc for over a year. In the last 3 months there has been a HUGE decrease in customer service and customer care. No support after 10pm is ridiculous for starters and no responses to emails or support on chat - and now no Facebook support. Gone downhill big time :(

Well Done!
99% of the time up on the connection. Speeds are even more then i pay for (50/20) getting around 52-3/21 with only paying $79/m no lock in contract. I was lucky enough to find this deal in the time frame as they have jacked up the price since, currently around $94/m. Only downfall i have is that it cost nearly an arm and a leg to pay for the Antenna install as i'm on the No Contract. They respond to calls on time and resolve if any issues ASAP. Highly Regard
I just cant get 100/40 ATM due to being away from the Transmitter to far.

Hopeless - unreliable
Short and to the point
Great idea - HOWEVER - completely unreliable service, weekly reboots and calls to customer support, weeks to diagnose and repair hardware faults while you have no internet connection at all - Weeks with not internet!!!
If you don't want to waste hours of your week working out why you have NO internet - Don't use!!
Received a credit for a month due to my complaints. Covers the cost of stan, netflix and frustration. Will keep you posted for April/May 2022

Sensational service, mission accomplished!!!
I live in a warehouse, where access to "anything" is almost impossible. My previous internet supplier was non existant, and a neighbour recommended me Uniti. They were professional, prompt and attempted every avenue to get their job done. I now have a working (100%) internet, and all thanks to Uniti. Well done, boys!!! Thankyou.

Good sign up, good price, unlimited download, reliable connection at advertised speed
At signup there was some inconsistency as to whether I would be able to get a good connection, but on persevering I had solid help from customer service, and the map indicated I could get line of sight.
Installation of the small dish took 2 weeks. The installers checked that my connection would achieve the 50MB/sec. Smooth going from there. I had a bit of a glitch my end (think it was my fault setting up the router) and they thoroughly tested and gave me a free month!

My life is now complete!
Before Uniti, my internet was slow, always cutting in and out, picture quality on video streams was poor, life was frustrating, and it was only me and my wife, ever since we joined Uniti, it's all systems go, fast internet, no interruptions, reliable, highly recommend the switch.

Update: Speeds are great now (Previously: Speeds are choppy. 50 one sec and 4mbps next)
Update:
Speeds are great now, and they have moved to a different payment provider which makes sure they don't double charge on invoice payment.
Previously:
Other than the fact that their payment screen froze and charged me twice (currently under cc dispute resolution). The speeds i have been getting from the beginning has been choppy. First 8 weeks were hit and miss. I’m on the 50/20 plan but only really get 50 down during the offpeak times. On on-peak times(4pm - 7pm) i mostly get ~4mbps to 19mbps max. Happy to share speedtests.

Great speeds poor service
Great speeds and very little drop outs.
I have been with Uniti for about three months and have to say their customer service is appalling.
On the day of my install I sent them a Facebook message asking for some information about what router I should get. Still waiting form response. I expect colonies on mars before I hear back.
I and a family member were also supposed to receive $50 for a referral. Did not receive it. Sent an email to customer support. No response. This one is 2 months in the making.

Great internet no issues
After being with our previous provider for 13 years and then being left without any internet connection for over 2 weeks ( someone else was using our service ) we decided to change to UNITY.
Installation was achieved in only 2 days from initial contact and the fast reliable internet lets us watch Netflix without buffering. I can now also go out the front door and receive WIFI in all areas of the house ( something which was lacking with our previous service ). The speed received is what I have signed up for.

It's just so upsetting to watch the slide in this company. What tech company only provides services when it suits them and not based on customer needs? Even the tiny ones have staff on-call - but not Uniti. If you have an issue after 10pm it's just bad luck for you.
They have also stopped responding on Facebook and email. Even online chat is a joke - you are number 1 in the queue and you wait over 20 minutes for someone to join and then they ignore you for 15 minutes and come back and say "i'm dealing with 5 other customers why don't you just phone"!! I know they sacked their 2 founders in February and that is about when I noticed the dramatic slide in service. I have tried for 6 days to get a response and not a thing yet - and it's major - I'm moving house so need answers to get things sorted.

I want to change providers, do Uniti take away the tower and fix the holes made in the roof? I don't want 2 towers on my roof.

I don’t know but logic would suggest that they could take down the redundant tower/dish and possibly use at least one of the anchor points. Worth asking initially the question
