    Great customer service, easy web interface which makes managing my adsl lines very simple
    I can do everything from my zen portal I don't even have to call them.

    I have used Zen for many years and will continue to use them for many years to come.

    Zen Internet are appalling . In the space of one week their service has stopped twice for the entire day. ie cant send or collect emails. I'm paying a fortune for the service around £500 /year and it would appear that the notion of compensation, sorry or a possible fix time is not even a consideration =- they've been relatively good 'til now - i've been with them 3 years but it would appear they are now unable to cope.

    Been with Zen Internet for 3 years for my home isp, only problem in this time was down to the BT adsl service. Zen identified this very quickly but it took 48 hours for BT to admit the problem was at the exchange.

    I've been with Zen Internet since 2002. In 7 years with them I've only had one major problem, and that turned out to be because BT had wrecked my ADSL line. Their support were really helpful in working out what the problem was and contacting BT for me (BT were hopeless in their support, by the way). Excellent support from ie the people you call actually seem to know what they're talking aboutExcellent service availability. The only problems I've ever had have been BT's fault.As for speed, I'm a ...

    Zen Internet is great when it works. C panel goes down too often for my liking. My site is then off line and so is my business. it seems to happen every 3 to 4 months. As a business, I can't afford this type of service. Just not good enough.

    I've been with Zen Internet just over a year and not once have I lost my internet connection because of faults. Customer service has always replied within a few hours. They've never messed up the billing. Website (especially the customer portal) is excellent. Includes webspace ideal for photos and backups.
    An excellent service, but you have to pay a bit more for it.

    Zen Internet were reliable with great backup and good communications . I have been with Zen for years and have hardly ever had a problem, when I did it tended to be down to to an old modem, since getting the latest type from them I have never had another. The guys cannot be more helpful and problems are always quickly resolved. It may cost a little more than most but the saving in hassle is certainly worth it, I am sometimes tempted to search elsewhere but hear of so many problems, if it works ...

    Poor quality of hardware. Poor knowledge levels at technical support. Lack of English speaking tech support (only speak computerease, which I dont and they seem un willing to translate to plain English). So far over 4 hours on phone and no further on. Dreadfull for an award winner!

    Have been with Zen for almost 18 months... absolutely excellent, reliable broadband provider ... you get what you pay for. They email to advise how much of our monthly allowance we have used which is helpful. Customer service is something other providers could learn from. They help even when the problem is not down to them.
    I never normally recommend to friends for fear they will find fault but have no hesitation in recommending Zen to anyone. My brother in law changed from BT to Zen on our reco ...

    I would recommend Zen Internet to everyone who wants a no hassle connection that is always up when you want it, and having never had to call them regarding connections issues since joining its made my life that much easier compared to friends who have wasted monies on premium rate Support lines on other providers, pay a little extra and save yourself so much hassle... its a no-brainer.

    Used 8000 lite service for two years and never had a problem with them. They provided intelligent support beyond what would be expected when another hosting company implied my connection was at fault.(of course it wasn't). Although Zen are more expensive than most you get a good reliable service and sensible support. No call centres, no being passed from person to person - well worth the extra.

    I was with Virgin.net. Hopeless connection speed, terrible customer service that cost 45p a minute.. Having swopped with zero issues in 4 days I find my speed has increased 4 fold to just a few K short of the promised 2mb. JOY! I had a small problem setting up email which was my fault but they spotted the problem with a very quick email response. Well recommend Zen Internet.

    I'm feeling really let down by Zen. For the last four days, my business has had no broadband, and Zen hasn't managed to resolve the problem. Zen's Technical Support refuses to get involved, saying that it's BT's problem. BT, meanwhile, says 'It's a problem caused by your broadband supplier, and we've notified them'. I've asked Zen to at least call BT and discuss it with them. But so far I've had no success.

    I've been with these people from the beginning and, although there might be cheaper ISPs about, you pay for their sheer professionalism and great service - brilliant. Well recommend Zen Internet.

    This is a review for unix Hosting only. The price is good (for a UK company), however the real let down is there are a lot of service outages for me. You can check to see the planned outages on their website, but they will send you an email if they are going to turn your server off for a day / weekend. It's probably obvious to say shared hosting is not ideal for a serious company, but in comparison to our back up providers zen has more outages in a month they probably have in a year. To give the ...

    Cannot say a bad word about theses guys. Phone them up - they answer and fast! Tech support articles are clear so you'll generally find what you want in their knowledge-base. However, if you want to discuss, they're always there and guess what - the sales guys know what they're talking about and aren't pushy.On the performance side, I have been a long-term Demon customer but have sadly noticed a deterioration in their service e.g. overseas call centre, apparent throttling of service (only ever ...

    Absolutely exceptional customer service and support. I joined them years ago and my DSL connection has "Never" skipped a beat in all that time close on 7 years now. My connection was delivered in 3 days not 5 as suggested and the accolades they have continued to win for god knows how long must count for something as its all service and quality based from what I can see. Yes they cost me more than the likes of many other ISP's but after all these years of never having any downtime at all I have t ...

    Always reliable connection. Excellent customer and technical support. I moved over from Pipex Homecall. Within a week they had fixed the problem I had with my line to the exchange (needed an engineer which Tiscali wouldn't send out). Excellent service, well recommend Zen Internet.co.uk
