Dissapointing
So, having phoned KCOM this morning, I am beginning to finally see why they have such a poor rating.
Having looked on the KCOM website for a better deal, I came across the 'Full Fibre 500' offer of £29.99 for 24 months. Which, I suppose is fairly reasonable. This was one of several deals listed. So I phoned KCOM to switch. However, I was informed, by the not so helpful operator, that those deals only apply to new customers. Really? Then I was informed that it does state on the website that these deals are for new customers only. Which, is actually on the website, but you have to scroll through all the deals to the very bottom of the page. And low and behold, there it was in the small print. So why not just have 'New Customers Only' written at the top of the page in big letters so customers don't waste their time?
Further to this, the operator was not very helpful. I wasn't given any options. I am currently paying £30.99 for Full Fibre 30. That's 470Mbps less than Full Fibre 500, and for £1.00 less. So why can't you offer this to existing customers? Because once you have the customers, money is the only important thing to KCOM.
I am now looking around for a better deal, and Connexin are looking very favourable. KCOM have had the monopoly for far too long.
Very dissapointing KCOM.
