Commissioning problems of Wight Fibre when customer needs to use WiFi to access a modern printer.

Function of Wight Fibre system all that was expected.
Contradictory advice was given on where it was necessary to place a printer and an item called a “Plume”. Current positions returned to where they started after the first installation day. Current performance excellent!
Commissioning of Canon G3570 ink tank printer not understood by your engineers. Finally I worked out how to do it. Canon system utterly different to past printers. Apple print process in iPad and iPhone needs to be ignored. Canon have invented their own. Their purpose is to make the customer choose their services of in selling future ink supplies. (Similar to Modern HP practice.)

Hello John,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for sharing your experience.
We're delighted to hear that the WightFibre service is now performing excellently and meeting your expectations.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the advice given on the placement of your equipment. Whilst our engineers will always do their best to optimise the setup during installation, adjustments can sometimes be needed once the service is up and running in the home.
With regards to your Canon printer, our engineers are trained to install and support WightFibre equipment and home network connectivity, but they are not printer specialists and are not trained on the setup processes for individual printer models. That said, we will always do our best to assist customers wherever we can and we're pleased to hear you were able to get everything working successfully.

Thank you again for your feedback. We value your comments and are glad you're now enjoying an excellent service. 💙

Super fast broadband in my island holiday home. I wish I could get it that fast at home in Hampshire but unfortunately Wightfibre won't do the mainland. Great price too. Easy to contact a real person and very helpful.

Hello Denis,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for your kind words about our service.
We're pleased to hear you've found the team professional and that you've continued to choose WightFibre over the years.
We understand your concerns regarding the £100 fee. To clarify, this is a one-off reconnection charge that applies when a customer re-joins us within a 12-month period and forms part of the terms and conditions of our 30-day rolling contract service. We appreciate that this may not always be welcome, and we value your honest feedback on the matter.
Thank you again for your continued support and for sharing your experience. We look forward to keeping you connected for many years to come, even if you do keep reminding us about that fee! 😊

Amazing Broadband

The lady I called to discuss information and packages was very helpful, polite and pleasant to speak to. I decided on a package and we arranged a install date, which, to my surprise, was sooner than I had expected. The communication was great via email and phone between signing up and install and the whole process was very easy. The Installation man was prompt, polite and knowledgeable. He made sure everything was working before he left and made sure I understood what might happen in the first 48 hours of install and who to contact should I have any concerns. I am pleased to say that it worked perfectly and I had no issues then or since! The connection is great as well as speedy and genuinely the best internet I have had, having previously lived exclusively on the mainland.

Pushy cold caller

We did not appreciate your pushy salesman from London cold calling on 17th Aug in person at 8.20pm. Your Facebook page says they will not knock on the door after 6pm. The road is Peacock Close. Please take appropriate action over this intrusion. I have security camera footage.

Hi Arnie,
We are sincerely apologise for the interaction that you have had with our field sales agent. I can confirm that this person is no longer part of the team.

The agents are trained to be respectful, provide information and take orders from people that are interested in becoming our customers. This individual is absolutely not following the training provided, being a brand ambassador, and is acting in a way that is totally unacceptable.

Thank you

Wow, I am blown away

I moved to the Isle of Wight and joined WightFibre less than 24 hours ago, and I'm already blown away. I had an issue almost immediately, nothing urgent - the service was strong, I just could not work out how to get my extender to work. I reported it on a Sunday, and it was fully fixed within hours by a guy called Patrick, who went above and beyond for me. He even sent an engineer out the same day to help me. All the engineers who came out were brilliant, tidy work, and very polite and professional. All genuinely knew what they were doing, explained the problem clearly, and sorted it properly rather than just patching it over.

As a brand new customer, and a brand new islander, this is about as good a first impression as a company could possibly make. No being passed around, no scripted responses, just fast, competent, human service. If this is the standard on the Isle of Wight, I think I'm going to like it here. Highly recommend WightFibre to anyone moving to the island. I will not use anyone else from here onwards. I'm astounded that companies like this still exist. Thank you :)

Some problems with initial installation with signal dropping out, had to contact WightFibre twice to have it fixed, though quick response with engineers attending within hours. Since second call out when internal box on wall was replaced everything has been good. Happy to be using local business and the price is very competitive. Thanks
