Responded to my online query promptly and made very sensible suggestions regarding my home internet. Answered all my questions clearly which helped me decide to move providers.
Hours Wasted Fixing Someone Else's Mistakes
My experience with Compare Broadband and their recommended provider, Superloop, has been extremely frustrating.
Compare Broadband initially helped me sign up with Superloop, but somehow connected my internet to the wrong address, despite me providing the correct address on the application. I then had to spend my own time contacting Superloop to get their mistake corrected.
Unfortunately, dealing with Superloop has been even worse. Their phone system repeatedly directs you to an online "live chat", but it's not a real person, it's an AI chatbot that is unable to resolve anything beyond the most basic issues. After wasting a significant amount of time with the chatbot, I eventually got the address corrected.
Now I've discovered I've been overcharged, and I'm back to trying to contact Superloop again. I've called three separate times, waited on hold for over 30 minutes each time, and still haven't spoken to anyone. Every call ends with a message telling you to use the live chat to speak to a "real person", which is simply not true. It's just the same ineffective AI bot that sends you around in circles.
What should have been a simple internet connection has turned into hours of wasted time because of errors and poor customer service. Based on my experience, I would not recommend using Compare Broadband's recommendation of Superloop.

Easy to talk to
Easy to talk to, talked me through my options, arranged call back times and processed everything easily.
The sales rep was very good
The sales rep was very good, I was informed that I need to provide 30 days notice to my previous provider. However by the end of my phone call with the sales rep, my internet was disconnected; the new provider was unable to assist with the new connection which took the entire evening, despite my modem was unlocked. Subsequently I was told i need a new modem, but the one I was advised to purchase cost between $5-$600 by the new provider. In the end I went back to my previous provider and was back online within 1 hr this morning. .
