Wifi Hire Recensioni 

We’ve received no response to their online form when we reported the ongoing poor signal when connecting more than one device. Even on one device it drops out which is challenging when working from home. Cannot find a phone number to call or a contact option on social media. Having to resort to writing a review to get a response but also to warn others. Would not recommend.

Update following WifiHire’s edited response:
I replied to the receipt email on 10th Feb to info(a)wifihire.co.uk, but that bounced back (something to do with untrusted domain). On this receipt it simply says 'If you have any questions, contact us at info(a)wifihire.co.uk', and that is the problem - it should state there that customers should reply to the confirmation email NOT the receipt, as we lost valuable time establishing that.

Our issue was dealt with quickly once the proper method of communication was established, and they did issue a partial refund following a long list of reasons why they shouldn’t but begrudgingly will. However, we still had a non-working router initially due to issues with the network provider it connected. The network provider should be checked for coverage in the area it will be used in before sending the device. The note on the email stating to email info(a)wifihire.co.uk with any questions needs removing from the receipt as it does not work.

Excellent!
A totally trouble free process from start to finish.
Received my hub on time, posted it back and received my deposit back without delay.

I will try them again in the future. They made an error in shipping address, so I couldn't use the router but they also didn’t charge me anything. I'm giving them 4 stars because they were very reasonable when the UK storm Eowyn stopped me sending the router back on time and they didn’t fine me.

Using the site was quick and easy, the wifi device arrived quickly and worked with no problem from the day we got it to the day we sent it back (the return was also super easy as it came with a prepaid return label). The customer service/response to email was impressively quick and efficient, and polite. I extended our rental by a couple of days and this again was simple to do. I would definitely recommend this company as they made a stressful experience (having no wifi for the first month after moving house just before Christmas!) that much easier.

At the time of writing this I have paid £346 for poor WiFi and even worse customer service. This is from mid November 2024 to 28th Dec 2024. I have had the unfortunate luck of having no network access after moving home and had to purchase WiFi from this company whilst awaiting connection.

From the off the connection was extremely poor, buffering and had to wait on another router to be sent out after providing 3 network readings to the company.

Customer service are always available when they are looking more money of me but have ignored 11 email requests for their address to return their products and a refund of my monies for days that they failed to provide any service remotely as well as my deposit of £50. (I lost their address in the moving home / Christmas period - it happens, but I’ve been very clear that I will incur the return costs).

£346 for around 7 weeks makes this company no better than Payday Loans and people need to be very wary of how they capitalise on people’s vulnerabilities.

Given their deliberate failure to respond to my communications and their failure to return my monies, I will be seeking guidance from Ofgem

Really easy and simple to set up, use and return. Saw me through from move day to go live day on my broadband

Life saver when Virgin let me down! Fast and reliable!

Pretty straightforward and easy to use service. Hotspot worked, instructions were used to understand. I extended the rental by a few days and they made that very easy to do. Customer service very responsive and helpful

Zero stars. We hired a mobile wifi dongle, and it arrived with an incorrect charging cable (they supplied a USB-C and not a mini USB) so the dongle ran out of battery; the little battery it did have, the wifi did not function correctly and the wifi was showing red. We use these mobile wifis for events, so we really a charged and fully working wifi. They provided neither.

On top of that: the customer service doesn't operate on a weekend (email only) and then they proceeded to ignore the complaint and say that there was nothing wrong with the wifi dongle. I requested a refund but they have refused to refund anything and still hold my deposit, despite sending the Mobile device back to them on time.

I've never dealt with such a bunch of amateurs and crooks.

Perfect for moving house when your WiFi provider takes 6 weeks to sort your internet! Had to extend it a few times but was very easy to do and team respond quick to emails! Box so easy to use literally turn on and crack on! A****

SO bad.
They charge me £114 for 14 days. When the hub arrives it hardly works, I cant even load a page quicker than 10 minutes.
They ask me to send them a speed test, which I do, and obviously it reads terribly. They send me out a different device, which they posted out late because they are useless.
Then, I ask to not pay the full price for the previous week where they wasted my time and money, they say no because technically I had intermet.
Rubbish.

We needed temporary wifi for about 3 weeks and found wifi hire .
I thought the price was rather expensive to be honest but when you actually weigh up your other options it wasn’t the most expensive .
Did a little research on the company and decided to give it a go .
We couldn’t have wished for a better service , the router came on time and worked perfectly , our deposit was returned within a couple of days of me sending the device back which was impressive .
I did contact customer services one time to ask a question and they responded pretty much straight away .
Stress free experience but a little expensive .
Hope this helps 😀👍🏼

Terrible service while we were in London, Liverpiol and Birmingham. Relied on hotel and restaurant wifis.

Your service was first class and I will certainly use you again

Smooth process, easy set up and return. Deposit returned in a few days without issue.

Excellent customer service. One company to be trusted!!!!
Thank you

Note WiFi hire ends at 1pm on the last day of your hire - this was not made clear before purchasing so we were without wifi for half a day.

Additionally I had to chase the tracking number for the delivery, and it assumed I had not posted the device back (they tried to make me pay a late fee) instead of asking me for the return tracking number.

Difficult to give a single score, so I’ll split into a few categories:

1) Customer service 5/5: rapid delivery and rapid return of deposit. Very good.
2) WiFi coverage 0/5: not necessarily the suppliers fault, but we had no coverage at all in our home. My phone works (EE) very well, but the service provider for this device was Three - who had woeful coverage in my area.
2) WiFi router 2/5: old and battered. But do not know if it is an effective router as the coverage from Three was awful.

Unfortunately I wasted £50 for a weeks service. Ensure Three has good coverage in your area before selecting this supplier.
