A bit of belated review… but a long term user one.
This is perhaps a bit of belated review as I have been with Wave for over 3 years now. I live in the West Pennine Moors and had been a long suffering "customer" of TalkTalk, who were using Openreach infrastructure. The village I am in has aluminium cables, and is about 3 miles from the exchange, so the broadband speed was around 800 kbps. After giving up on any meaningful community engagement with Openreach I decided to go with Wave. I cancelled my account with TalkTalk (now, there's another long story about crap customer service!) and swapped over to Wave. I have not had to call Wave up for any issues at all over the intervening period. The connection has dropped out just once or twice over the 3+ years, but that could be counted on one hand, and has always come back on within a short time frame. Overall I am so pleased that I switched, and now I just forget that I'm not using a cable connection anymore. Amazon Prime works a treat, as does Netflix and the other online catch-up TV services. If you are getting fobbed off by your current broadband provider, then make the switch. Great service from a local company.
