Hi,

We are truly sorry to hear about the ongoing internet issues at your cafe and the impact on your business.

We understand your frustration with the long wait times and the lack of resolution. We hope the issue raised has now been resolved with our customer service team, as we did not hear back from you.

A good customer experience remains our top priority and to ensure this was achieved, we requested your account details. Unfortunately, these were not provided.

Regretfully, this means we could not investigate this case or assist you further.

Thanks, The Daisy Team

They're ok, until you ever try to leave...

The internet itself seems reliable; however, they make it impossible and purposely make it very difficult if you no longer require a service from them.

I closed my office to work from home, the cancellation fees for the service were ridiculously high, so I continued to pay monthly until the end of the contract. You can't cancel the auto-renewal until close to the end date. This leads me to now, the contract ends soon, and I am trying to cancel the auto-renewal. Spoke on the chat, went through the security verification, only to be given a number I have to call. Called the number, went through the security again. To be told I have to speak to someone else, but they are not available and I have to wait for a call back. The callback never came after over an hour. I've called again, to be told to wait for the callback again, and I am being prioritised, but it's been over an hour, and I've heard nothing. This has all so far taken 3-4 hours and is surely a simple thing, but they are making it as hard as possible. I'm starting to think I am going to be trapped with them forever...

I wouldn't recommend them, unless you want to have them waste your time and never let you leave...

I am a customer

I am a customer, if you’re a disabled person and looking for your needs to be met, they are not the best service provider for you.

They agree but restrict you services

I guess now for writing this, it will be a negative outcome for my company
The date below is wrong has its been a continuous issue and can reset the date.
When I tried to complain i got a manager say what action he would take and then restricted my service.
Customers without care.

Continue charging for a closed account

When we first joined XLN we had a good experience, but as they have grown and taken on by Daisy this service level has dropped dramatically to the point where we have left. Unfortunately this is where our problem really started. Since cancelling our account we have continued to be charged and despite informing them that we have closed our account and continued to be charged, they hve not been able to stop taking payment nor have they refunded us. A serious case of computer says no!!

Update 13-07-2026
One month and despite being promised a full refund we are yet to see anything! I never feel like they actually do anything following a call, it’s all talk and no action. Terrible customer service again!!

Hi,

We can confirm that the charges have since been sent to the correct department to be credited.

This company is by far the worst…

This company is by far the worst company to deal with I have ever experienced. Forget trying to cancel a service you will be on hold for at least 30 min then the call will disconnect. When you eventually do speak to someone on approximately your 10th time of trying you will be passed from pillar to post and end up back where you began. BEWARE

Hi,

We are truly sorry to hear about your experience trying to cancel your service.

We appreciate that being transferred between teams and experiencing lengthy wait times can be frustrating. However, based on the nature of your queries, it would have been necessary for you to speak with different departments, as each team specialises in specific areas of your account to ensure the correct information and support are provided.

That said, we acknowledge your feedback regarding the customer journey and will ensure these comments are shared internally as we continue to look for ways to streamline our processes and improve the overall customer experience.

Cancel XLN internet

I've been trying to cancel my internet service for two months now. They keep stalling me. I text them, they say I need to call them, I call them, and they say I need to be connected to the cancellation team. Their customer service is as bad as their internet service. They're extorting £77.76 from me without providing any service. I sold my business. I don't use the internet anymore. They're still trying to charge me.

If you’re looking for stress

If you’re looking for stress, definitely choose this company. If you want your monthly payments to keep increasing every few months, this is the company for you. Even if you want to cancel, you have to pay £200 just to have them cancel it. In practice, you’re trapped and discouraged from cancelling. Their customer service is terrible. Don’t trust them read the negative reviews and you’ll understand

Stressful, time consuming experience caused by misleading sales promises, poor handover, and chaotic billing

This has been a stressful, time consuming experience caused by misleading sales promises, poor handover, and chaotic billing. If you value clear communication and reliable onboarding, be cautious dealing with Daisy XLN
Daisy XLN Account Number: 5040182
Daisy XLN Account Number: 5040179
Daisy XLN’s sales team promised one thing and delivered another. We were sold a 24 month contract for two service addresses at £119.90/month (ex VAT) but experienced no follow through from the salesperson, repeated technical failures, incorrect billing, and poor communication from both technical and finance teams.
Detailed review (chronological, factual)
• Sales promise and contract — In February 2026 sales representative emailed to confirm a 24 month contract at £119.90/month (ex VAT) for two service addresses and said both addresses would be on the same contract. After we agreed verbally, sales representative became unreachable and stopped replying to emails and calls.
• No porting communication — There was no communication about porting our four telephone numbers. We only discovered we couldn’t cancel the verbal contract after problems began.
• Router and setup — The router sent was an unconfigured, off the shelf TP Link with no instructions. We had to configure it ourselves and spent hours on the phone with technical support to port numbers and get services working.
• Account and billing errors — We are being billed £109.13 for one address and £54.48 for the second, contrary to what was promised. We were told Daisy cannot put two service addresses under one account number, which caused confusion and stress.
• Overlap with previous provider — Daisy failed to notify our previous provider of the takeover, so we continued to receive and pay BT invoices for two months. We have not received the agreed early cancellation payments from Daisy despite sending BT’s final bills.
• Webex cloud service issues — We were told the Webex cloud service was similar to BT’s, but it required Daisy/XLN to set up and only supports one landline number despite us having four. This required more lengthy calls to technical support.
• Finance and billing communication — Finance repeatedly pressured us to set up direct debit despite our preference to pay by bank transfer. We received final demand notices even after making bank transfers; staff told us payments take five working days to allocate.
• Paper billing charge and e billing problems — We are charged for paper bills but do not receive them. E billing only notifies us that a bill is ready a few days before it’s due, forcing us to log in, download, and print the bill ourselves.
Recently found out that they are now Virgin Media O2 and Daisy Group and nothing has changed

Worst company I have ever dealt with

Worst company I have ever dealt with.
As a warning to potential new customers.
They have increased our monthly payments every few months. When I initially signed up to XLN I was paying around £45 per month. Now they are charging me just shy of £60 .
The app they use is terrible and the price they charge for the service is quite frankly day light robbery.
Difficult to contact and very sly with increases .

Our business was ported across to their cloud services 2 weeks back but we were only provided with one handset. Ordered a second identical handset and paired it to the base but it wont connect to the line (suspect line provisioning SIP template issue) . Spoke to tech support , first guy gave up and stopped responding when none of his fixes worked, the second advised the call would have to be escalated to the VOIP team and that was over a week ago !Nothing heard. Not recommended for businesses if only 1 handset configurable :( XLN , the call ref. is added to this review should someone get back to me. **EDIT - SO, get back to me, 4 weeks hence still waiting !?**

Monthly invoices are never correct

Monthly invoices are never correct, when you do an online chat, they agree and say it will be sorted, yet it never is and you go through the whole process again & again. When you email direct you get told to go to the online chat! and the circle starts again. Just invoice for what has been agreed, it's very simple!

Reprehensiblecustomer service @ S R

Reprehensiblecustomer service @ S R
Today I recieved a message from 07537402588 saying the following ,
"Your account 4719264" is now overdue.
Unfortunately, we'll have to restrict your line from 10am tomorrow.To avoid this , call 08006529482 with your credit/debit card details.
Then I recieved an Email from 'S..R..' in a pdf format which essentially is threatening me of restricting my phone line & adding late charges.
I tried to respond to the message & email & I got the following Reply,
"Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.
noreply...telecom-service.co.uk
550: 5.1.1 User Unknown"
I had to inform 'S....R...' that I can not pay the 'DISPUTED ERRONIOUS' charge but I can not inform her as her email doesnt accept a reply.
GOD DAMN this dispicable company.
-----------------------------------
------------------------------------
-----------------------------------
My following previous message which somehow was removed on the behest of the company as I didn't write my acc. no.
so MY account no. is 4719264

Absolutely appauling & Incompetent Service

Rude,incompetent to the core!
One can only find out about the service when a dispute happens.One agent I spoke to today ,seems like she was drunk , THE second agent ( E.... ) decided that she only wants to have a one-way monologue so she just dissconnected me.
First i had to wait & wait , then was informed that as I am making a part payment , I have to go to a different department , more wait , the lady ( H...... ) picks up the phone , explained to her , Im willing to make the payment for the total bill minus the ERRONEOUS CHARGES , she insists that if I don't the full payment in next few days my account will be suspended then as I try to explain to her she refers me to a different department.That person , after listening to me refers me back to the first department.
Now in credit dep. M.... F.. picks up the phone , I again for the fourth time explain to her my on-going dispute for the last 6 months , anyhow I make the payment of £185 & despite me explaining to her my refusal to pay the 'Erroneous Charge' of £99 she threatens me with my line suspension on the order of her MANAGER. I ask her for the Manager's name ,she point blank refuses. I ask her for the copy of the payment reciept of £185 via email , she refuses & says that she can only send the email by a text message for this small amount ( £185 ).The text message doesn't even mention the amount. So I said to her that people ask me for a reciept for even few pounds & I have to give them the reciept as it's their right.
Pathetic & depressing service.These call handlers are only worthy of cleaning the toilets where they don't have to communicate with human beings!
I will be expanding on the ongoing SAGA of ERRONEOUS charges by XLN aka DAISY TELECOMMUNICATIONS.
EDIT : Hey Daisy aka XLN , don't try to get my review removed by using coercive methods , just point out the factual inaccuracies.
------
Daisy Tel. got my review removed on the basis that I had mentioned the names so I had to remove the names. Most of these are incompetent liars.

I just received a call from XLN/Daisy

I just received a call from XLN/Daisy, the reason? Because I've cancelled my contract, the reason I've cancelled my contract?
Well that's because they think it's okay to put your price from £25 per month to £75 per month the moment your contract ends which is nothing more than legalised robbery!
Because when my 16 year old router stopped working they wanted me to pay for a replacement despite me having been with them all that time!
Because the quality of the actual broadband would be best described as sketchy at best!
And finally, because despite me stating in my end of contract statement that I DIDN'T want to be contacted by them trying to persuade me out of leaving they did!
There are better, more honest providers out there, do yourself a favour and sign up with one of them rather than XLN/Daisy.

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear that you remain dissatisfied with the billing on your account. Following review, we can see that the charges applied were a result of the removal of your Direct Debit without prior notice or explanation provided to us at the time, which impacted how your account was subsequently billed.

We can also confirm that your account has now been closed.

I'd rate them less than a 1 if I could

I'd rate them less than a 1 if I could. Absolute waste of money. We were promised a price match initially, then after 3 months it shot up. We are a self funding charity and they have absolutely taken us for a ride. I urge anybody considering using XLN so reconsider, anywhere else is so much better. If we could afford it, we would pay them off now.

I'd also like to add, the only reason they are 4 stars or higher overall, is because when you have a decent conversation with one of the representatives, they ask you if you can give them a review on trust pilot and send you a link. Not even the 4 star rating should be trusted.
