Broadband for the Rural North Recensioni 

The service has been great and the only problem, of my own making, was handled well and without making me seem to be the idiot that I am!!!

Brilliant connection and fantastic customer service. Communications with customers are excellent and any (rare) problems are dealt with promptly and efficiently.

When we moved house a few years ago, we only considered places with B4RN service as we couldn't bear the thought of having to go back to any other providers.

Excellent service, high performance at sensible price

Excellent engineers really helpful in settling us up.

I very rarely have problems with my B4RN and on the few times I have had problems they are quickly dealt with. The B4RN Telephone help line is easily accessible and very efficient, with the staff always willing to help.

Reliability and speed of signal are unparalleled. Very, very few power outages and those only occur for necessary maintenance and take place when most people don’t need the service. The price for the quality of service is more than reasonable. When technical support is required there is an immediate response time. We feel privileged to have this service. Thank you.

B4RN provide a vital broadband service for rural communities. Their efficient and professional staff ensures stable connectivity and enables seamless business and personal online use.
Thank you B4RN.

Advance notification of maintenance work - usually carried out overnight

It will be going on for eight years since the B4RN service went live in my rural home. The change in service was truly dramatic. The old copper wire service was so slow and variable. Some days it was very slow, on other days it just didn't work at all. B4RN has transformed the way I can work.
I switched my telephone service to B4RN as soon as it became available.
Both screen services and voice are very reliable. Maintenance outages are few and far between, notified well in advance and usually undertaken when we are asleep.
If one has queries, a telephone call to B4RN gets a quick response and is managed by friendly, real live people that care. Definitely no robots!
But what about the down side? So far I have yet to find one.
Some people might raise the issue of down time in power cuts which can be a real issue in rural areas. The B4RN service is all underground so no risk from fallen trees. Further, your local B4RN switching cabinet has battery back up and is remotely monitored so maintenance staff will turn out whatever the hour to replace or recharge batteries.
But, you will say, my router needs power whereas my copper wire 'phone service carries its own power. Yes, it does now but come 31st January 2027, that will end and all communication services will need power in the home at all times.
However, there is a solution. The B4RN website explains a number of standby battery options and if you’re not a techie person, the B4RN technical staff are there to help you.
Very satisfied customer. Dentdale.

Service is great, I like that there is someone local who can be called and helps if any issues are reported.
Speed not toe 1000mps suggested

Hyper fast speed.
Good value VoIP works over internet world wide.
Very speedy response from local help line.

Well it’s better than sky but I still have to use 2 extension boosters throughout my house but I do live very rural. Works better during the day for downloading things on tv, at night it can take longer

Fast and helpful support as usual

Excellent broadband provider, would definately recommend. Very reliable service delivery. Their customer service is second to none with prompt answering of calls and helpful friendly informative people dealing with and actioning any enquiries.

A fantastic service in an area where we wouldn't expect a fast, reliable broadband.

All good, thanks. Reliable service.

Volunteers and engineers were reliable, very helpful and patient in setting up our B4RN from the pavement to our property. We do occasionally experience some buffering when streaming.

I had a question about my bandwidth.
I was given positive reassurance and help.
My hearing is not good but I received kind and patient consideration making it a very pleasant and helpful experience.
Thank you.

WiFi is rubbish. Telling people not to bother. Waste of time is the WiFi. Better off with BT.

Reliable broadband and great service at an affordable price
