It was hard to figure out all the things preventing my speed from being the proper 1000/50 that it was advertised as. In the end it turned out that my Google Nest WiFi router was bottle-necking everything to 50/50. Which is super weird because it performed well enough initially (430/79). Now I've swapped to a better router and I consistently get 1000/100 over gigabit ethernet. It slows down to around 600 at peak time, but that's more on NBN than MyRepublic (I think). Overall I would have to recommend them for both the price and the quality of connection. They currently can't be beat at $90/month! Would be good if they stopped recommending Googles Nest WiFi though.

Useless and Unhelpful Customer Support

I started a Live Chat to reschedule the Fibre Broadband installation date and was transferred to a "Mark" in the live chat. "Mark" generally gave 0 interest to help and asked me to wait for the order to be confirmed first. If nothing is confirmed, shouldn't it be possible to reschedule??? Apart from that, I asked if he can advise what the procedure is to porting over since I'm currently using M1 broadband, the response I got was "This is not part of the current service". What a brilliant response... Now I'm thinking of cancelling my subscription. Thanks for nothing MyRepublic

Worst customer service ever

My modem wasn’t working. I was unable to speak with anyone as there is no telephone contact available. I had to go on the chat line. Firstly there is a robot that is of no use at all and eventually, after answering a heap of questions and waiting for a very long period of time, someone started corresponding with me. I had to go through numerous identification questions and then the line dropped out. I had to go through the whole rigmarole again and once again before I could find out how I might fix the problem, the line dropped out.
On the third try, when I finally got to chat with someone, I asked how I could get back quickly without having to go through the robot and identification questions. They said to tell the next person to look up the ticket number and they gave me a ticket number and once again the line dropped out. The next try I had to go through all the information I had previously given and I told the customer service person to look at the ticket number that I gave them. They basically ignored me and I had to give them all the information again. I asked them if someone would please phone me back or email me if the line dropped out and they assured me they would fix the problem - and then the line dropped out again. No one contacted me. On the next few tries I begged the customer service person to phone me, but they refused even though the information on the website says that someone will contact you if there is a problem that can’t be resolved.
This went on for three days. No one was prepared to call me back or email me and I was left in limbo. This house is a BnB and we had guests arriving who were expecting the internet to be working. I was extremely stressed and didn’t know what to do
On the fourth day I went to another provider who actually had customer service staff who would talk to you. I lost money on the My Republic service but this provider took over my service and fixed the problem within a couple of hours. My Republic is the most frustrating and uncaring company I have ever come across.
The actual internet has been good but after being with this provider for quite a long time, I expected better customer service.

DO NOT SIGN UP TO MY REPUBLIC

*****DO NOT CONNECT YOUR HOME OR BUSINESS TO MY REPUBLIC WIFI OR BROADBAND SERVICES*****

If I could give My Republic a ZERO rating I would.

Worst company ever to deal with, live chat bot drops the chat on you for no reason, and it's impossible to speak to a human being.

I've signed up to the Superfast home 1000Mbps / 50Mbps package and have not seen speeds of over 62Mbps in 2 weeks and when on "live chat" the person reset something and got me to do most of the work, and now I'm getting 6Mbps download speed and advertised as average 350Mbps speeds on download.

The company are absolutely clueless and I've made a huge mistake signing up with them.

I have been trying to get assistance to set up my new modem for 24 hours now. It's a complicated weird two unit contraption.
They will not allow you to speak to anyone on the phone. I have been on live chat for over 6 hours, with no progress. Chat constantly dropping out, and having to go through it all again with the next guy.
And after 6 hours, it's not resolved, and they're off for the weekend.
Worst customer service EVER!

I received an email from MyRepublic stating that my Payment card had expired, I checked my card and this was untrue. I went to MyRebublic Chat line and was very frustrated that it did not allow to speak verbally with a human being. I requested a phone call to my mobile. after a number of attempts a young lady called Lauren spoke with me. Unfortunately my mobile was accidently on "Do not disturb" and we had problems conversing, finally Lauren after much patience with me solved my problem. I am very grateful to her. Many thanks Arthur Jenkins.

I beg each one of the Aussies don’t go through this company I currently pay $115 a month and have incredible drop out on my ‘gamer pro’ plan
When you have a problem it’s extremely hard to contact them and when you do , it’s through email and it doesn’t get sorted I really advise everyone go through an Aussie based company that is ready to speak on the phone if you have a problem because these guys will only speak on the phone to you to sell the plan once that’s done, they don’t care.
They simply don’t want to pay anyone to call and fix all their clients issues with network.
I don’t usually do reviews but They’ve drived me to this point

Stay away from MyRepublic

Please save yourself the trouble and DO NOT sign up with MyRepublic.

You will be paying for a service that simply DOES NOT work AT ALL.

If you want have a stable connection from this company you will need to be paying for their "Gamer Pro" plan.

Recommend to join either SuperLoop, Tangerine, Kogan or Telstra instead (literally anyone but MyRepublic).

Update: I changed back to Superloop and can confirm the MyRepublic network is rubbish.
Upon changing to Superloop my packet loss issues have been fixed.

Update 2: Response to My Republic representative (Lauren)

"Appreciate the attempt to reach out and to resolve the issue Lauren.

Definitely this is not a customer service problem and more a fault of the network itself.

Upon switching back to SuperLoop (my original provider before My Republic) the internet is working smoothly with no issues. I don't feel like I need to raise a complaint to get my service to work - it should just work.

I wish you well and again appreciate the attempt to rectify my issue."

Appalling customer service

Appalling customer service. The internet regularly cuts out for periods of 30-45mins. I have learnt to deal with that but today I have been out for 8 hours. They asked me to go and buy a new modem as the modem they sold me was faulty and then they suggest it was NBN's problem. All my neighbours have perfect internet this is not an NBN co problem its a My Republic problem. It is all about passing the buck and not about assisting the customer in a reasonable timeframe. I will now be waiting 24-48 business hours for a manager to make contact.

It's ok for the price, but...

I've been with my republic for about 6 months.
the speed tends to be as advertised 93+ on busy day periods, but I do find the latency below average at around 20ms+. This is mostly noticeable if you do any online gaming without paying the $10 extra for their gaming tier.

In summary I find MyRepublic ok in terms of speed and reliability for the price. However, I completely agree with the reviews about customer service(guys it's not good enough) I tried unsuccessfully to reach out to you when I first got connected, but thankfully managed to fix the problem myself...I do wonder how it would go if am ever in the deep end with a big problem?.

PS: Your bot is terrible, obnoxious and I believe detrimental to your brand as a whole. It's almost better to retire it and take the $pain to hire a pair of good customer service consultants.
