Hi there,
Thank you for contacting us via Trustpilot. I’m pleased to hear that the engineer was helpful. However, I’m sorry that your laptop is no longer working following the installation and that the router remains in an inconvenient location in your bedroom, with no suitable cable provided to reposition it. I would request you to please contact your service provider, as they’ll be best placed to help reconnect your laptop, review the router placement and discuss the available options for moving it. If further Openreach work is required, they can raise this with us. Please accept my sincere apologies for the disruption and inconvenience caused.^Abir

Full Fibre Installation

We were surprised how quickly and efficiently the job was done.
The engineer went beyond what was expected as he helped us “oldies” to connect our iPads and phones quickly to the router .

BT Delivered As Promised

The router showed up as indicated, and the engineer came at the time indicated. He was polite and helpful, and left things neat and tidy. BT sent many reminders to keep things on track.

Wallpaper Damage

The engineers who came were pleasant enough but I am disappointed that the wallpaper is scraped and damaged where they were working and nothing was said

Hi there,
Thank you for contacting us via Trustpilot. I’m pleased to hear that the engineers were pleasant. However, I’m very sorry that your wallpaper was scraped and damaged during the work and that this wasn’t brought to your attention before they left. I understand how disappointing it must have been to discover the damage yourself. For the damage to your property, please contact our Public Liability team at BTPL@Keoghs.co.uk or 01135 482 650, providing photographs and any relevant details. They’ll advise you on the claims process. Please accept my sincere apologies for the damage, lack of communication and inconvenience caused.^Abir

First class service from Kelly Group

The Kelly engineer arrived yesterday afternoon. He introduced himself to both my wife & I and gave us a brief explanation on what is involved for our fibre connection. We can't remember his name? Anyway he did a first class job, tidy work and quickly had us up and running.
Credit to the Kelly Group.

Great Openreach experience

Open reach engineer called in advance to say when he'd be arriving, was nice and polite and explained to me what he was doing to ensure that I could point out any possible issues. He did a great job fitting the fibre cable through a complicated series of gaps and walls in a 1960s flat, adapting to ensure he didn't interfere with any other cables and systems. He was also happy to wait while I tested it with a number of systems to ensure there was good connection across the property.
