“Unbelievable speeds for a rural line”
Written on: 10/05/2012 by Simonnnn1
I live in a rural area with old lines and at least 2.5 miles from the exchange. BT could barely give me 1 meg, Eclipse 2.5 with frequent disconnects and throttling. Aquiss manages to provide me with a 7 meg down connection with no throttling ever and Piratebay isn't even blocked :D I pay maybe three times more for this service but its worth every penny. Finally I can use the internet as it was intended, play games with decent latency and stream HD videos with no buffering. The customer... (read more)

“Excellant Customer Service with the Personal Touch”
Written on: 01/12/2011 by crummock (1 review written)
Everyone complains when things go wrong so I think it's fair to pass on compliments when things go well. Now I've been an Aquiss customer for several years and have been very satisfied but not had much call to put there customer service to the test, until recently. The line into my current work place had become quite unstable and would suddenly alter SNR and resync at random. We put this down to the length of line and overhead cables and were sort of accepting that this was life with adsl... (read more)

“If you want a quality ISP, look no further!”
Written on: 20/11/2011
Whether it's the quality of the connection, quality of customer / technical service, help with setting up - Aquiss is a top flight set up. This is more like an approach I would expect from a high ranking German organisation - build and run the service to a quality standard, not cutting corners to achieve a price limit that we see so much in the UK. I need a reliable and good performing ISP for my work, as well as personal use, and Aquiss simply delivers. I remember when I set it all up,... (read more)

“aquiss forever”
Written on: 17/08/2011
been with aquiss from day one, after my ISP went bust and I already left BT for another provider. martin sold his first package with confidentiality as he still does, he also is on the phone when you need support and actually remembers who you are, which in my case has never been hard, cos i have not made it easy on him, :-) for those in the uk that want a personal and good service well there really is no alternative, :-) (read more)

“As good as it gets”
Written on: 27/07/2011 by geewiz (1 review written)
I've been with Aquiss for a few years now and am extremely satisfied with them. The no-lengthy contract is a big plus for me after having endless hassles and demands for hidden charges by previous ISP's (BT, Telewest) when cancelling after shoddy service. I think that Aquiss show their confidence in the service they deliver by offering a month-on-month deal. I've not had a single outage or dropped connection and speeds are consistently good. The price might put some people off but for me... (read more)

“Living in Shropshire I always presumed that I was...”
Written on: 11/09/2010 by Doggies Retreat (1 review written)
Living in Shropshire I always presumed that I was never going to get a decent broadband speed regardless of the ISP. I have been with Orange since 2002 and all though the service was reasonable I have never been able to surf the net as one would have liked. After being saturated with all the online and TV propaganda from the likes of Virgin and BT etc I decided to at least try to see if more was available to me.
I came close to ordering with both BT and Virgin as most of the review sites...

This is the best ISP I have ever had. To setup it was a doddle, everyone person contacted was friendly and the service is fantastic. Aquiss offer complete dedication to customers and are openly honest about their packages. Absolutely fantastic and worth every penny. GO AQUISS! (read more)

“When setting up your initial account with Aquiss, it...”
Written on: 15/10/2009 by fergus6 (7 reviews written)
When setting up your initial account with Aquiss, it asks you for your payment details, so I entered my business card details, expecting that the money would be automatically taken each month.
However I received an 'overdue account' e-mail!
So I e-mailed Aquiss to ask why, and I received a very abrupt e-mail back, which said:
"I've told you before on the phone and via email, that we don't take payments automatically. We work with an invoice based system. If our approach to accounting does...

“I've been with Aquiss for a good 3 years...”
Written on: 07/10/2009
I've been with Aquiss for a good 3 years now...possibly longer. Basically, I jumped off a sinking Pipex to go to a substantially more reliable Internet Service Provider.
From the whole time I've used this, I have had the occasional problems and queries...such as downtimes..but everyone gets those every now and then. Technical queries on settings/new hardware installations and whatnot.
I do get the odd problem here and there...but to be fair, e-mailing customer support has a brilliant...

Written on: 13/07/2009 by ki77y
I have been an Aquiss Broadband customer over 12 months cannot fault them since my move from Virgin Media cable I have had faster speeds with more consistent speeds during peak times. Recently moved over to their new LLU platform since 21cn is a technical failure plus not set to arrive at my exchange until sometime in 2011.
This connection has out performed BT's IP stream with no speed or connection issues, I would recommend Aquiss to anyone. Support is UK based all emails I have sent have...

Great customer service from Aquiss Broadband. I recently talked to a very friendly clever man about broadband from aquiss they seem great. Their prices are a bit dear but if you want good broadband and upto 24 mb speed then you gotta pay good money ive had cheaper deals with the likes of tiscali'talk talk'but their service is very poor i got 2 mb with talk talk and 7 mb or less with tiscali which is not the 8mb speed i should get ive just joined 02 and their upgrading their exchanges...

Written on: 19/12/2008 by tcxcadet (1 review written)
Changed to Aquiss after being very disappointed with Tiscali and Virgin. Aquiss couldn't be more different. More expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for - no throttling, good connection speeds and so far (8 months) absolutely no down time.
Regular e-mails from customer support keep you up to date with any changes or future improvements.
Can't recommend enough.

I came to Aquiss after I was finally able to get away from the garbage that is Pipex Broadband, what a breath of fresh air, if you want to know what having ADSL is really like, go with Aquiss! You actually get what you pay for, they have very knowledge staff that are nothing like the robotic brain dead idiots you find at most providers, the speeds are excellent, I allegedly had 8meg with Pipex but it was more like 512, went over to Aquiss and BOOM what a difference I went from getting 150kb...
