    Phone and Broadband

    cannot get through to faults. waited over an hour on many occasions on the phone with no answer. Live chat missing from their web site, fault logs reported through their very own system are never aknowleged or actioned. i cancelled the dd and sent email to their address onsite which after 3 auto attempts could not be delivered with message ( service at xlntelecom.com
    host xlntelecom.com ...83.231.163.3...

    No action is required on your part. Delivery attempts will continue for some time, and this warning may be repeated at intervals if the message remains undelivered. Eventually the mail delivery software will give up, and when that happens, the message will be returned to you.
    ).
    i have now been forced to move to another supplier and xln still insist on sending me bills even though i mailed them and sent messages through their faults system telling them to cancell my account with immediate effect. DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY IF YOU NEED A RELIABLE SERVICE AND GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE !

    i would also like to add if you voice your honest true opinion on the social media and they dont like it they ban you and delete all the comments. i have noticed lots of comments have vanished from their FB Feed including all of mine. so it seems someone does actually read the comment but cannot be bothered to handle them in a proper manner just delete us and carry on ripping people off.

    Broadband and Landline

    XLN is unprofessional communication centre now due to their silly mistake they gone give new name as DAISY Communication and make more scam with innocent people. TIME TO CANCEL THE Direct debit and make a formal complaint to the telecom Ombudsman.

    Keeping cheap labour giving them ZERO training about customer service and about their own product. I have made numerous phone calls to XLN in last 3 months, I have spoken to numerous people in XLN included T2 Escalation team (Olivia), Hajra Account Management team, who are stating new story every time and never come out with solution.

    Firstly, they decided to live my internet (fibre) and landline (Cloud Voice) without communicate with OPENREACH as they haven’t completed work at my office. To cover their fault sent me new Broadband with dongle. Which was wrong broadband not compatible with dongle. Than 2nd compatible broadband but faulty part. 3rd One works but too slow producing 3.8MBPS download speed and 1.8MBPS upload. They make promise and send you text to someone will contact you and never received call from them about this issue in the past 3 months. This issue is still going but nothing they care about I lost 3 months sells around 70% due to their stupidity.

    Secondly, they live my cloud voice without informing me what to do and install app. Lost another 2 weeks calls and sells 1st Month of September. They don’t care about it and I contact them again after 1 week realise yes, they make another mistake and will send me link of WEBEX app technical team to install and run my landline. After 2 weeks this WEBEX give up and again no calls incoming or outcoming. Waited 5 weeks nothing been changed and lost all 90% sells due to their unexperienced and absolute awful business with terrible customer service.

    I would like to suggest local business please avoid this XLN or DAISY communication for your business as they will ruined entire business and feel no shame. Re: 14487987

    Shocking service. Asked for Static IP, NOT HAPPENDED. Several call's on hold for 25 - 45 mins, still not happened and now they have changed company names and think its ok to take Direct debit in a different company - which is breach of DD guarantee. Wouldn’t trust this company, no way

    Been with XLN for last 11 years and hence shocked to get the service and treatment by the supposedly Head of Customer Loyalty.
    Below is my email to them which pretty much sums up my experience with them -

    "I have already spoken to you yesterday regarding this contract. I have spend half of my day trying to fix an internet issue I have was having with XLN and was informed by Floran that he can offer me wireless 4G dongle at reduced price which effectively will reduce my tariff each month and then the phone was passed over to you after which we went through the super-quick T...C’s trick.

    I was surprised to see your contract email of £42.99 pm followed by Floran’s email with another £29.99 pm for 4G dongle which is NOT what we had agreed. Also you confirmed that if we remove the 4G dongle from the package, there wouldn’t be any difference to the existing router or inter connectivity which basically defies the reason I got in touch in the first place. You were also not aware of Floran’s 4G £29.99 package at this point so clearly there wasn’t any clear communication between you two. He was trying to sell his product and you were doing the same. Within minutes I was mislead into buying 2 contracts and my tariff increased significantly. Why would I proceed with another contract with no difference to the current one when I am already having some internet issues and problems?

    After speaking to Floran who strangely had a totally different tone and was not friendly during our second conversation, after talking to him about my concerns I was more surprised that my monthly bill will actually increase to more than £100 if I went ahead with the proposed contract. Floran also confirmed he does not know my current tariff and was not aware of £20 that I pay for using the card machine. If he was not aware of my current tariff and price then how did he propose savings to me in the first place. Also when asked him to contact you to cancel both contracts, he denied doing this saying he doesn’t know where you were and I should call you to which I strongly objected as it was him who transferred my call to you.

    Anyways, I would like both my contracts to cancel with immediate effect as I believe you both have provided wrong information to me including convincing me that I will be saving each month but the fact is that I will be paying more than my current tariff. The other reason is the way both of you changing your tone in your 1st and 2nd call. I did not find you were trying to help but rather upset when I decided not to proceed.

    I would rather pass my business to some company who cares for their customers. Floran has confirmed my 4G dongle contract has been cancelled and if you could do the same as well".

    My contact started yesterday and XLM have 'forgotten' to order the fibre. This means that I am unable to operate my business for 10-14day!! at a cost of £12000 - £15000!!!
    Their response has been to try and claim that this happens sometimes and that it is not mentioned in their contact because it's 'a standard thing'!!
