Had this broadband in my property now…

Had this broadband in my property now for about 3 months not had any major issues just the occasional drop out which only lasts a few seconds this could be down to my router but not too sure to be honest, the speeds are consistent and 99 percent of the time it runs perfectly. Last few weeks latency has been higher than usual when using my Xbox wired with cat6 ethernet cables but something I will monitor

Overall service is top quality and having a static IP address is definitely a bonus also all providers should give 12 month contracts like Aquiss does

Only thing I wish was possible was changing a direct debit date to suit but this is nitpicking

Whisked away from old ISP effortlessly

Migrated me away from Vodafone on CityFibre on the date they said. There was no push for shipping me any unwanted devices, they just gave me the technical specs and the link came up once I configured those.
Bottom line is I have never had to pick up a phone to listen to tedious music. We send e-mails like normal people.
There is even a WhatsApp group for the network status.

Fantastic service, totally transparent

A fantastic service. God-tier technical nous and a real personal touch. My connection is as fast as can be, totally stable, and includes all the features I want with none of the fluff.

Pricing is fair and competitive. It is possible to buy a connection for slightly less money, but the value here is top notch.

If your connectivity is important to you, and you prefer to use your own network equipment, I’d highly recommend Aquiss.

Aquiss. It just works. Brilliantly.

Whoever you are with at the moment for your internet. Unless you are 100% happy then you should switch to Aquiss. We have been with them for 3 years and to be honest it just works. All day. Every day. As expected. It’s never let me down.

Customer for life

I’ve been an Aquiss customer for year a year now and have worked with almost every telecoms company in the UK through my career in IT, connectivity and data centres.

The team at Aquiss are the genuinely the real deal. If you can find a more transparent, efficient and friendly company who just get it and get it right, I’ll pay your new connection fee to a new provider.

The amount of terrible service, lies and tomfoolery I’ve experienced first hand from nearly every other UK provider doesn’t exist here and you know what? It’s refreshing. Yes things sometimes go wrong, it’s technology, things break. But knowing the team at Aquiss genuinely give a damn, chase updates for you, keep you informed and do everything within their power to get you a fix ASAP is spot on.

Customer for life, no questions asked.

A great company

I have been with aquiss since the days of dial-up internet (ask your dad if you've never heard of that), and now have FTTP. I could save a little by going elsewhere but for me, Aquiss offers things that make the slight extra cost worthwhile.

Primarily its the fact that the service is totally reliable. On the very few occasions I had to call them with a query over all the many years, the phone was answered in a few seconds. Sometimes by the owner himself, but always by someone who was tech-savvy and not someone in a call centre who's only skill is working their way down a tick-list.

They do not offer voip phone with their FTTP but recommend a company who would provide that over their connection at minimal cost.

If our extended family is anything to go by, using a conventional house phone has been replaced by using a smartphone except for us old dinosaurs so I can understand Aquiss not getting involved.

My FTTP has same upload speed as download. Not everyone offers that. I'm not a heavy data user but there have been occasions when that turned out to be useful, uploading a large file to my drop-box for a friend to access while collaborating on a project.

The best service and support with great value for money

I've been with Aquiss for 2 years now, on the highest Cityfibre packages. The initial setup was smooth painless and they did exactly what they said they would do. The couple of times i've had issues over this period, they have been resolved promtly with great feedback from the team. Well worth the money for a top tier service.

Good Morning Mike,

You absolutely 100% know what is going on and it's frustrating that yet again this morning I have repeated to you the same information, as I have personally done pretty much daily this week.

You reported an outage on your service to us on July 28th at 09:58am. This was logged with Openreach at 10:34am on the same day. An engineer attended your premises the following morning and reported at 10:46am that they could not complete the job due to a onsite hazard, this being a High Voltage cable being extremely close to the fibre cable placement.

Notes, as you know (as i've sent them twice) are as follows:

- Fault is still in progress with OR since a hazard is required to complete the job.
- Customers dropwire has come off the pole.
- Due to metallic dropwires running under the HV, I am unable to climb, HV above copper and fibre drop wires.
- Engineer was unable to test the light because CBT to close to HV on a wet day.

29/07/2025 10:46:27 4N67 4276
Notification Only - Further work needed - due to Hazard situation.

Notes from engineer:\nHV above copper and fibre drop wires \nSurvey required \nA1024 - 15132469\n\nCustomers dropwire has come of the pole, \nLow light reading \n\nLooks like it's been nailed to the pole \n\nDue to metallic dripwirses running under the HV, we are unable to climb \n\n\n===QBF summary starts======QBF summary ends===

Whilst I understand your frustration your case is complex, the property install predates ourselves and yourself, but requires a specialist N11 engineer to survey the job and resolve this in a safe manner, especially with high voltage cables being present.

I really don't know how much more proactive you expect us to be. A fault logged within 30 mins and an engineer with you the next working day. The case is very much now with Openreach. You have also had the notes sent to you in detail.

The case remains tracked in our systems and being chased at least 3 times a day.

Regards,

Believe the hype!

I moved to Aquiss in April from a CityFibre Vodafone connection and I’m glad I chose Aquiss.

After a few initial teething issues which Martin smoothed out personally, I’m absolutely delighted with the speed, quality of service and support from Aquiss. They live up to their excellent reputation!

Fantastic customer service

Kind of weird I'm writing a 5* review given I didn't actually become their network user, but the story is as follows: tried to get fibre installed in my building, and Aquiss was fantastic helping coordinate w Openreach (who themselves were completely useless). The process dragged out for months because of Openreach's incompetence, and in the end I went with a non-Openreach fibre provider instead. I can completely sympathize with Aquiss when they are dependent on Openreach to provide the core infrastructure for them, so given that, I was blown away how Aquiss handled the whole thing, including their Managing Director, Martin, personally replying to some of my support tickets. Wholeheartedly recommending this company.

I was with Virgin for years as they were the only one who supplied full fibre in our area. Then when BT Openreach installed their full fibre I had the chance to switch. Whilst I was with Virgin the broadband would drop intermittently or have really slow periods. I was constantly having to reset the router to clear errors and paying close to £50 per month. Since moving to Aquiss the broadband has been brilliant. I don't recall it dropping out once and the speed is very consistent. Moving to them was really easy and even though they dont provide a router they do have suggested options that you can purchase directly.

I'm really impressed with them and would highly recommend.

Reliable service, good customer service, unexpected end of service fee

I've been with this ISP for three years, and overall, the internet connection has been reliable. I was generally impressed with how quickly and professionally they responded to support tickets.

Now that I need to cancel the service due to moving abroad, I was surprised to find there’s a £45 end-of-service fee—even after being a customer for three years. I don’t recall seeing anything about this when I signed up three years ago, as I understood only early termination fees would apply. So this unexpected charge was a bit of an unwelcome surprise.

Good Evening Sandy,

I'm sorry to read your review, but we openly state the £45 figure on our sales pages. It's not hidden in any terms or conditions and applies where a service has to be ceased (such as moving out of the home or moving to a different network provider, such as Openreach to Virgin Media).

If you visit https://www.aquiss.net/unlimited-fttp-fibre-broadband/ and scroll down the page, details of this charge are clearly listed.

I don't like the charge myself, but its a cost from the networks that we pass on, however, lets do remember, we didn't pass on any install charges (circa £120) and in most cases customers join with a discount period (upwards of a £150 saving).

About as Honest as you can ask for.

Totally true review, totally true view.

Recently joined Aquiss (as in very recently) - Order was delayed over the weekend but this was due to BT's system having an issue. Martin was very clear to me what was going on - and he kept track of it. When the system did come back online I was connected in under 30 mins. The ping and quality is actually better than the Leased line this is meant to be a backup for - however I am that impressed with the service so far and the way I have been treated that I requested to forfit my 3 months reduced price and I went onto the 1Gbps Business package for Enhanced care for me and also to sort out the billing for them. You get what you pay for and I would not feel right taking Aquiss's service for cheap knowing it's costing them for me to do so. No sir.. Not for me .
