Such a great local company. Been with pine media for a year now, great Wi-Fi service and brilliant customer support when it’s needed. So much better than a large, faceless company, makes such a diff... See more

Great experience from start to finish

Great experience from start to finish
I had a minor fault with my service (possibly due to me turning off the power every night) but the engineer that came out Danny, was an absolute pleasure, he refused to leave until my service was back up and running to perfection. He even moved my awkward furniture out of the way and placed it all back once finished thank you so much.

Easy to arrange, good customer service

Easy to arrange, some of the setup guidance needs a little updating (mentioned equipment the don't use anymore) but overall good. Connection didn't go to plan, but customer services were quick to pick it up, and while it took a couple of hours to sort, they got us connected. Overall good experience.

Great so far !

Just started using Pine Media this week after moving into my new flat. So far the connection is great and the price is brilliant! Only issue is that they’ve charged me a set up fee when my building is already set up with Pine and there was a router already in the apartment, so no set up needed.

In broadband, bigger isn't better.

As I've worked in the broadband industry (back as far as testing one of the first ADSL lines and before that introducing 0845 dial-up) I understand what is involved in running an ISP. Pine Media have wisely chosen to focus only on full fibre, and do that well. This, together with being a small local company, and a founder seemingly active on the front lines explains why they are getting great reviews.

Have to agree. Bar one small glitch, ordering, installation, customer service, customer support has all been spot-on. Problems sometimes occur. How you deal with them is what counts.

Definitely recommend these guys. Especially over anyone bigger or more well-known.

Great service

Although they missed my first connection appointment, we were able to reschedule to the earliest available date. After my internet had been connected the Team followed p to find out how it was performing. They were so quick to respond to emails. They even wait before billing to make sure everything is working just fine. I got the basic package of 1000mbps and the speed is just perfect for online meetings and even streaming videos.

Totally useless

Far and away the worst company I have ever dealt with. I am moving house so needed to terminate my connection. Was told it would be terminated on the 18th September. The line is actually terminated on 28th August when I still needed it to work from home. I was told that openreach had terminated early, with no explanation as to how that had happened, and that I would have to pay extra to have it re-instated when it is their screw up. How could anyone think that is an acceptable way to treat a customer?

Hi Tom,

We can see you contact our support team regarding the early cease carried out by Openreach. Whilst it's true that we would usually need to charge to over our costs for re-activating a ceased line, we can see that the support agent did indeed reactivate your service free of charge as an apology for the mistake.

Having just checked now, it seems your service is already back online. If you're still unable to get online please contact our team.

Exceptional customer service, they look after their customers.

I am re-writing my earlier review that was written out of frustration and seems unfair to leave it at that, hope my review helps others. Although there was an issue with installation/registration of the eero device which took the company three days to sort out, Will, a director, resolved the issue on a Saturday morning (even though they are closed on Saturdays) and stayed in touch throughout the weekend to make sure our service is up and running. Much appreciated Will, Steve and the team, thank you.

Amazing customer support, great WiFi too

Amazing customer support, answered all of my wide-ranging questions quickly and with lots of detail and understanding for my particular circumstances. They offer great WiFi - fast, stable and cheap. What more could you want!

Would recommend (with them since 2020)

We have been with Pine media since the start of 2020, when they started covering our area. We have not looked back since then, in the past we have used other providers and it was always unpleasant to deal with them. We are about to move and they have made the transfer process very easy! :)

Amazing and reliable!

Really quick process from ordering online to people coming for installation! WiFi is really fast and reliable! Setting up was simple however if we needed any help all we did was ring up and the issue was sorted in 2 minutes! Great internet provider, for a great price!
