I have been using Free-online (plus*net) for 6 years and their ADSL service since they launched it. I have recommended their service in terms of price and quality to many friends for years, who have been equally been impressed UNTIL about 9 months ago. Now the quality of the product has gone into free fall (only today I had no service from midnight until 2:00 pm today) and as for the customer service - what a joke. In May it took 4 weeks to get a relatives ADSL restored due to an issue with the service! The last problem ticket I raised was closed automatically after 2 weeks because it had not been update (BY PLUS*NET!!!!). They ignore the tickets and then close them due to inactivity when I am waiting on them for a response. At the same time they sent me an email stating they had improved customer service and had only 100 (ish) tickets to answer...yeah right.
