Chigwell Satellite  Reviews 198

The screws to fix the dish to the bracket are black m6 screws the bracket has only a 4mm pilot holes so a drill and tap are required. There are only 5 m6 bolts for 3 joints in the bracket, 2 are required for each joint otherwise the dish will swivel.The bracket bolts have a square under the head the depth is more than 2 thicknesses of metal meaning that when the bolts are tight the joint is lose so you will need some alternative m6 bolts. After spending time and money on this dish it does work fine i would not recommend. I am pleased to say with this update that customer services have made a refund to cover the problems above and an apology and are checking there stock so this does not happen again.

Having used this company over many years via different platforms I decided to go direct and use the shop direct through there website. Easy to navigate and order.
Unfortunately there was a issue our end with the postage courriers.
I contacted Chigwell Satellite by email regarding the issue and was contacted immediately by Charlie and followed by a telephone call also.
To be honest Charlie could not of done enough for us helping to try and track our parcel and kept us informed every step of the way. Unfortunately the original parcel went astray and it was no hassel for Chigwell Satellite and quickly sent a replacement to us that was received in a
matter of days.
Great customer service, great equipment, fantastic company, and will certainly recommend ,
Thankyou again
Kind regards

We finally finished with Sky satellite after 13 years of overpriced subscriptions and instead purchased a
New Humax HDR-1100S 2 TB Freesat HD TV Recorder.
Firstly we discussed the Humax directly with Chigwell satellite needing more info to ensure we were doing the right thing. They were extremely helpful then and still are, going above and beyond expectations.
To be honest we were astonished at their helpfulness.
Highly recommend this company and 5 stars just isn't enough.
Thanks to Richard, Daniel and Charlie and whoever else helps make this company the best.

I purchased a Sky+ box to replace the one I had. As expected it works very well, but what I liked the most was the very detailed instructions on what has to be done to connect the box, the TV to the remote control, etc.
Although I had a problem receiving a reply from the company regarding the use of the remote control, they have now explained to me why they took some time to reply.
I am happy with the product I ordered, and with the very clear instructions.

Chigwell installed starlink broadband at my property where we couldn’t get good internet.
Tidy installation. Everything discussed before started drilling any walls to make sure happy with locations.
Dan very polite engineer and knowledgeable. Helped setup account and talked through everything setting up.

Knowledgable staff, very helpful

Prompt turnaround

Just Excellent service. I would recommend the company to anyone.

I had problems with my Sky+ HD Box.
Sky refused to send an engineer out , quoting “ They no longer stocked Sky+ Boxes or their components “ therefore won’t repair them.
I phoned Richard at Chigwell Satellite who asked what the problem was, and identified it as being a faulty cable connection and not a box problem.
On a second occasion I had problems recording and watching sky programs.
Again Richard correctly identified this as a setup problem and talked me through the process over the phone , so saving me 2 call out charges.
I can’t recommend Chigwell Satellite highly enough, in particular Richard Adoor.

I live in France and Amazon would not deliver a satellite box…I read various reviews about Chigwell Satelite and decided to call them…I’m so glad I did because Daniel not only went through the different models and the advantages he put one in the post the same day…It arrived promptly and although it was a reconditioned model it looked brand new with all the necessary fittings and booklet…I can now watch U.K. television with all the advantages of recording etc..Thank you Daniel…. I thoroughly recommend this company to anyone…

We had Starlink satellite based broadband internet intalled in our property.
Spoke with Richard who was very helpful and within a few days Dan the Engineer arrived promtly and the instulation and set up was completed within a few hours.
Thank you Richard and the team.
Will definitely recommend and use in the future.

My view set top box ordered in line. Despatched next working day and arrived within 48 hours as promised. Product is as described, immaculate and works perfectly.

So, bottom line Chigwell satellite are sending me another box, they rang and were very polite and helpful, it seems its just my bad luck is all.
Customer service 5 star, I've just been unlucky.
I just hope the 3rd box works for longer than a week, will keep you informed.
Thanks for your help, I'm going to give a 5 star rating, (for customer service) and a 1 star to sky manufacturing techniques.

Fast delivery and quicker than I expected (next day). as described, would use again.

Happy with sky Q multi room wall bracket.

My old Sky+ box had lost it's record/pause facility so I bought a new (not refurbished) like-for-like replacement from Chigwell Satellites. Delivery very quick and the instructions that came with the box were really clear and simple to follow. Once installed, Sky paired my viewing card and everything was fine - except the second TV in our house didn't work as it did before. A quick 'phone call to Richard at Chigwell sorted the problem out in seconds - absolutely brilliant Richard and thank you!

Ordered a simple refurb sky+ box for an elderly neighbour. It arrived quickly before Christmas & I was able to get her back up and running, for a total of just £49.99 - Sky wouldn't help her at all, but were more than happy to continue taking her monthly subscription fee for content that she couldn't watch without a box!

Great product and quick delivery will use again.

Great customer service and communication, very helpful and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend.
