Efficient, professional service with a real person explaining everything.
Quick, efficient and personal service. The technician was patient as I am an older woman and not so computer savvy as a younger generation. He was able to identify the problem and fix it in a short time. We were amazed how he knew how many devices we were using and was able to detect the problem quite quickly.

Fantastic coverage and network
Fantastic coverage and network, and very reasonable.
Cant recommend enough, superb!
Great team of people who are local and understand the challenges for rural communities.
Product is superb great speeds and reliable. I work from home and this is a game changer for me. Speed and connectivity is essential and it’s brilliant. Plus when there are any tech issues, calls and solutions are sorted quickly.
Forgotten what B4RN is
The first thing to say is that we hardly think about B4RN at all, but this is really a complement as it indicates that service is (near) 'always-on' and problem-free. I recall a couple of notifications (over 3 years) of outages for upgrades or whatever but these are planned for night-time and have little impact. I'm not harassed with upsell attempts but there is an occasional emailed news story which is of interest. There's been a price increase in the 3-4 years we've had service but I'm still highly satisfied.
