    The absolute worst utilities supplier I have ever encountered. Appalling reliability and customer service. My internet drops out every single day and sometimes several times per day, and customer services told me that this was standard.

    I had problems from day 1 with my devices not connecting to the router they provided (no issues with previous plusnet). Suspect a cheap router is used. Increased contract mid term. When cancelling, and despite being out of contract and moving to Fibre they still charged me a full month and added on charges for revoked loyality discount. If you get to their rententions team - they are an horrible bunch of expletives who will just hang up on you. Absolutely avoid Shell Energy Broadband. It might be cheap but it truly isn't worth. My new provider BT gave me a massive bill credit for not connecting me on time. That was without me asking for it. Go with a decent name. Plusnet or BT. Not this shower of con artist who are going to disappear from market soon.

    Have had this superfast broadband for about 8 weeks. Worst broadband I've ever had. It may be superfast but obviously to a fast wrong turning as it never seems to reach us. Spent more time offline than on. I have managed to terminate my contract free of charge due them nit meeting their commitment. Be warned, this really isn't good broadband. Oh, and if you still decide to sign up, be prepared to wait a significant amount of time to get through to customer services

    My Shell broadband was supposed to go live on 07/11/23 but never did (everything was fine with the previous provider). After several complaints, Shell sent the engineer on 22/11/23. He confirmed that my brand new router sent by Shell was installed correctly and upgraded the master socket.
    However, this did not help. The engineer found that the phone line did not function and the problem was on the Shell side. He requested escalation to the Senior Investigator Team with a follow-up by visiting the property.
    The engineer submitted the report in my presence on 22/11/23 9am. However, after 3 full days, no-one has contacted me to book an appointment with the senior investigator team and I have been without internet for 17 days now.
    DO NOT USE SHELL.
    They have atrocious customer service, never call back, do not have adequate engineer staff and are not able (and interested) to fix their mess. I've also been already charged for their non-existent services.

    Two years ago I joined Vodafone broadband. The service was so bad I had two heart attacks and I'm still trying to get the £200 compensation they promised. This lot are even worse and I cannot get any sense out of them. Having agreed a deal where I was supposed to get £220 bonus voucher. No mention on the contract although it was promised by IMRAN WHO from Somewhere.

    By far the worst broadband provider I have ever had the displeasure of being signed up with. Avoid these crooks at all costs.
