While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Stay away from this shower

Stay away from this shower
They are nothing but trouble ,if you speak to them get it in writing and record everything, they have selective memory
If you are foolish enough to sign with them do not give your bank details they will take what they want, they continued to withdraw funds even after I revoked the authority
They continued to bill me for months after I switched providers and threatened legal action if I didn't pay
Eventually they were ordered by the tio to refund the my money which they refused to do
They are currently in court with ACMA
Avoid doing business with RED TELECOM they will rip you off
There is nothing good to say about this company

Red Telecom is a scam operation

Red Telecom is a scam operation

Red Telecom is a scam operation, STAY VERY FAR AWAY FROM THEM UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. They are owned and operated by Nicholas Kontaxis who was investigated and charged with illegal activities under the telecommunications act and the consumer credit code. They are currently facing charges in the Federal Court of Australia of up to $10M, for each breach, of which there are multiple, after being charged for repeatedly failing to comply with orders from the TIO, the industry ombudsmen and for false reporting to the ACMA, the industry regulator. If they survive this action, you should never deal with them under any circumstances, if you are with them now, find your next provider and run away as fast as you can. This company and its staff deserve the misery of wind up order issued against them and its director Nicholas Kontaxis barred from a directorship of any Australian corporation for the maximum term. They will promise the earth, lock you into a 5 years paid in advance finance deal without disclosing what it actually is, provide no working services, prevent you from accessing your phone numbers then abuse you when you call to complain after a week of trying to get through as they never call you back. After you cancel your services due to no telephones for over 6 weeks in your business, they will steal your money from your bank account even after you notify them they are no longer authorized to access your accounts and will then threaten you with legal action if you try to recover it. Ignore this review at your own peril, you WILL lose a lot of money if you place an ounce of faith in their inexhaustible lies and will potentially tank your business. This is a current affairs style event and Nicholas Kontaxis and his team of criminals need to be held accountable.
