I returned my router on the 15th July and was told on 4th August that my £60 refund would be issued by the end of that week. It is now 6 weeks later and I am still waiting.

The customer service is absolutely dreadful. They ignore emails for weeks on end (if they even reply at all), the live chat has been suspended so there’s no way of getting quick help, and when I tried phoning I was fobbed off and told to email instead — which is completely useless since they don’t respond.

I have asked repeatedly for confirmation and proof of my refund but received nothing. It feels impossible to get any real support from this company.

This is without doubt one of the worst broadband providers I’ve ever dealt with. If something goes wrong, you will be left chasing for weeks with no answers and no accountability. Avoid at all costs!!!!

Switched to Earth Broadband in June. By August they increased my price mid-contract, despite Ofcom rules giving me the right to cancel without penalty. When I raised this, they tried to charge me £650+ exit fees!

On top of that, I emailed to cancel the optional Earth Hero add-on in August and they ignored it, continuing to charge me £5 a month for two months.

They fail to act on emails, ignore consumer rights, and seem happy to breach Ofcom regulations. Shocking customer service. Avoid at all costs.

How can a business operate without customer service? I call and told to use live chat as the best means of communicating. I go to live chat and it is closed down `due to high message volume`. This remains the case after 1 week. I send an email to terminate my contract which is now up after 12 months and get an immediate reply from `Ella` asking if I wish to transfer... er NO. I politely explain this and then ...... nothing. I also realise now why they push for an early review, and that's because you will feel differently when you try and end the contract.

Great environmental intent, but you are miles away from the other internet providers!

Stay away from this company!
I got charged 4 months in advance when I signed up, standard DSL speed (80Mb/s if you are lucky), phone support turned off towards the live chat, and live chat turned off to an email address!
Emailed them 3 weeks ago, no answers. In the meantime, I got charged right in the middle of the month, two weeks away my direct debit and my bill went up with only two weeks notice!

Great customer service since the get go! A small but busy team at earth but always make time for their customers. A recent issue was remedied quickly and fairly. Nice email received from Ella in their customer service team explaining and fixing the issue. 💚

I would have put 0 star if possible. Mishaps after mishaps including wrong date of router delivery TWICE despite clear instructions (still haven't received it), no engineer showed up at the appointment, support chat deactivated, no response to my emails. I'm paying for nothing because unsurprisingly they didn't screw up direct debit.

I received a response to my email straight away. I had a problem with my bill, Ella was extremely helpful and I didn't expect to have it sorted out so quickly. Thank you!

Had no service for 4 months
Still trying to bill me direct debit even though I stopped using them in June
Tried repeatedly to cancel as I had no service

Fast and friendly communication when faced with a billing issue. Ella was very helpful!

The team of Earth Broadband is really helpful and works hard to solve any issue that comes your way.

They are a small team so they do struggle with time sometimes, but I have eventually always gotten a solution from them. Ella, in particular, is always available to help and provide solutions.

Mid-contract rise of £5, no customer support.
They gave me three days' notice for the increase. Industry standard for mid-contract price increase is 30 days minimum, and the customer can leave if they disagree with the increase. In their Terms and Conditions, section 13.3 states "We will provide at least thirty (30) days’ notice before implementing any changes to the Agreement, ..." Nowhere in the price increase notice did they mention that it's mandated by law or from suppliers, so it doesn't apply.
Also, now my price is HIGHER than if someone were to sign up today, for the same plan. Makes absolutely no sense.

Transfer date 10th June. Today’s date 25th August. My service has not been transferred and I’ve had no explanation/communication.
Plant mangroves, fantastic! But you are primarily a broadband company?

The customer service has been great, I especially appreciated Riley’s help with dealing with a recent question. His honesty and swift response made it an easy solution.

They have increased the price of my contract by £5 per month - mid contract so I can’t even leave.

Ignores emails, terrible service! I got conned into paying for their ‘earth’ extra payment for the planting trees. While I’m happy to help the planet, I want it on my terms and not at the cost I was paying. So I asked them to cancel it. I was still charged so they said they would refund it, to which they didn’t and then processed to still charge me again! The broadband is awful and often completely crashes out and I’ve never got the minimum WiFi connection speed they guarantee! I’m now stuck in a contract that if I leave early my effect my credit rating!

Have received quick and helpful support after speaking to Ella. Im very appreciative.

We got this service for university, after moving out we wanted to bring it to a new flat and they couldn’t provide the service after back and forth about them not following OFCOM guidelines they then proceeded to charge us every month when they agreed not to. I then found a resolution they then made me wait 3 months for WiFi as they kept booking the technician in incorrectly. They then kept putting in mandates to start direct debits even though they had promised not to until the service was activated and now they’ve charged me £35 and blanked my emails. The worst company I’ve dealt with go with the main stream companies instead. Oh and the service still isn’t on yet.

Earth Broadband haven’t responded to me for days.
After being unable to set up our service quickly (through a delay in Openreach connecting our building), I was then double charged and left in the dark with a temporary connection that did not work. I then emailed to for assistance to use the temporary network and was left in the dark with no response.
I then emailed to cancel the account with no response.
I got a refund for the charge through my bank and have cancelled direct debits to EB but no matter how many times I cancel, they automatically get set up again to take money from my account for a service I cannot use and cannot contact anyone to cancel (the support app chat and phone lines are closed).

Extremely disappointed as initial contact with the team was great and I was excited about the service.
