We surveyed new customers 60 to 120 days after switching to John Lewis - here's what they told us:
-
I am very happy with the switch to John Lewis. The switch itself was seamless, even keeping my original telephone number and everything took place on time. I have found my broadband reliable and good value for money as my monthly payments would have increased significantly with my previous provider.
-
Annoyingly the switch was delayed because they asked if I wanted to keep my number for a second time, when I'd already said the week before I didn't. As a result I ended up with extra charges from my old provider as I didn't leave in time.
-
The switch was done two days late. The service is much the same as my previous provider, but is a little bit cheaper. So far I’m happy with my choice.
On average, people switching to John Lewis saved around £3.81 per month, and rated their John Lewis broadband 8/10.
