    Just wanted to leave a quick note to thank all the people who have reviewed this company and left the negative reviews. I’m glad I did my research before almost signing up. Seems like I dodged a bullet! So these reviews definitely make a difference! Thanks for the heads up.

    Please people do not sign up with these pirates service is useless customer service is useless they refuse to resolve issues but are happy to continue to taake money from you.

    If I could give 0 stars, I would. Shocking service as their phone lines are not up and running due to Covid and everything is done over chat. No one speaks to anyone so when we were told we'd have a new router in 2 days, it wasn't actioned with anyone else. Had to follow up 5 times and by the last time we were told the action was then cancelled by the technical team because we were deemed to have no problem (sure, internet dropping to 0mbps every 30 mins is no problem!!)
    We were sold an upgrade in March at £27 a month for superfast broadband and told we could discuss cancelling after 6 months. We tried and were told we couldn't do it
    The price increased to £39 in August and we had no letter confirming. When challenging this they said that they didn't have to show us proof of postage in line with Ofcom.
    We now have to pay off the remaining balance when we move in January for an absolutely terrible service - both customer service and internet service.
    If you're thinking about a cheap provider, I'd go with anyone else as I promise you - the prices are too good to be true.

    I am a doctor, on a DD, who has been disconnected twice during the pandemic which has meant I've struggled to make my e-consultations due to faults with OneStream! I'd recommend you avoid them - it's not worth the hassle.

    I have been cut off twice now, for not paying my bills. The first time, they haven't been able to figure out why my direct debit was cancelled (not by me). Second time, the DD has been taken from my account but not shown up on their system. Their phone lines aren't working. And their CS over chat have told me they have no record of payment of DD. I've sent them the proof of payment and await their back tracking.

    I was told "you receive your bank statements so can tell if there is a payment issue" and frankly that was the last straw for me. When I have a DD setup, I don't expect to have to check it to see if payment has been taken or not. That's the whole point of the DD.

    And to add insult, I've also been told there is a price rise which we told you about in June, mid contract, after getting special dispensation from Ofcom for it. I mean, absolutely ridiculous CS, ridiculous systems and frankly a ridiculous company I'd avoid at all costs.

    I paid the £50 deposit then they mailed me to say that if I wanted the speed that I'd asked for I would have to pay another fee to BT Connect for ADSL between (£70 - £190). I immediately cancelled but now they wont return my deposit so I'm taking them to Small Claims Court very soon.

    Avoid..
    I am not even a customer, I only enquired about their service but was told they would take £9.99 while they set things up, that would be refunded if they could not provide the service. Well they cannot provide the service but still have not refunded my money three weeks later. So glad I did not become a customer now.

    Avoid at all costs - the actual broadband was patchy and slow (although not unbearable).

    The worst bit though was in the middle of our contract they claimed they could no longer afford the discount set out in the contract and raised the price from £13 to £25/month. Shortly after the price rise kicked in they then lowered their prices again for new customers.

    Dishonest, disingenuous and just poor.

    I actively avoid confrontation, and yet I'm utterly exhausted from dealing with this company and trying to rectify their mistakes. Never have I seen such incompetence: within just six months of my time with them, they managed to overcharge me, change the guaranteed speed *AFTER* I'd signed up (then fail to reach even the new minimum speed), dodge my emails, incorrectly charge me engineer fees twice only to later rescind them, and finally wrongfully chased me for money after I'd cancelled.

    Terrible customer service, all the staff I spoke to were young casuals who I had to pity: they'd been given no training or resources to actually help, instead they awkwardly sympathise with your complaints without actually providing a solution. Reeks of ownership and management that is incompetent at best, but probably deliberately deceitful.

    I have not had problems with the speed or reliability of the connection with OneStream, however, I was unable to use my Chromecast with it, I was paying 3 times the price of what I thought I would be paying but the worst was when I received a letter to say that OneStream would take legal action against me, despite, themselves having broken the terms of our contract, despite myself informing them in writing that I do not agree to the new proposed terms and I wish to cancel my connection and despite having already been assured by OneStream's customer service via email that the account was closed and no amount was owed. It is outrageous being threated with legal action for not having done anything wrong, just because OneStream are incapable of keeping up with their records. Also, there is no means of speaking to anyone during COVID. Appalling service overall.

    Every bad comment that is made about this provider should be taken notice of. Absolutely disgusting company. One lie after another. Absolutely can not give them a low enough minus rating. BEWARE STAY CLEAR AND NOTE ALL THE COMMENTS.
