Richard arrived to connect my skyQ box

Richard arrived to connect my skyQ box, even though it was around 6:40pm because he was held up on another job. When i said i wasn't expecting anyone to show up at that time, he said there was no way he wasn't going to show up because he knew i had taken the afternoon off work. So for me he showed great dedication towards his job and his customers. Very professional and did a great job and answered all my questions.

Had an issue with my broadband late one evening and sent an email to ABS. The next morning at 8.15 am , Graham phoned me back and talked me through the process of re-connecting. Graham was very helpful and within a couple of minutes it was "all systems go"

I do not agree with the enforced yearly payment of £ 120 in addition to the Sky monthly subscription. What does it cover? To me it is a form of blackmail. If every household in a building thar has Sky is forced to pay £120 this is totally wrong imo.

Excellent customer service from Graham at ABS

Graham came Tuesday morning, promptly at 8:30 as promised. He was a very polite and helpful engineer who set up our Sky Q box in no time. I would recommend the company to anyone, as he had worked there for a long time and he was very knowledgeable.

The ABS office were so helpful as I had no TV when I moved in to my new apartment. The engineer arrived after a very long day and completed the installation and explained everything clearly. He even took time to sort my WIFI out too. Great company to deal with.

Graham and Len installed a TV connection to the Guest Suite in the Estate that I manage. Great service, cleaned up afterwards and set up the TV.

Fitting of Sky Q

Joel arrived at the time given. Very professional and helpful. He explained how Sky Q worked and cleared up after himself. A very nice young man.

Shocking Company

Had four appointments from Sky TV to change a Sky Q box over in my 88 year old dad’s flat,according to Sky this is a free fitting and there is no charge.
Applied Broadcast System then ring up asking for £125 to fit this, so are they not only getting paid by Sky to do this work they are also trying to Scam an old person out of his money.
If you read further reviews on this company, this seems to be a regular occurrence.
They even said we should pay the money up front and then IF we don’t have to do anything then we will refund your money.

Excellent Service

I was given a next day appointment with an engineer who arrived promptly. He established the issue immediately and resolved the issue that was impacting numerous apartments in the development. The repairs were done quickly, with no mess left behind and an exceptionally friendly service was provided. Richard ensured all individuals issues were resolved before leaving. Cannot rate highly enough, thank you.
