MyRepublic

MyRepublic is the New Zealand’s first fibre broadband only Internet Service Provider (ISP). Their plans are truly unlimited and they're ready to unleash the potential of their fibre broadband network from Whangarei up north to Invercargill down in south. They believe in delivering an awesome internet experience for all kiwis at mass-market prices. All this with no lag, no limits and no holding back.

Beyond ultra-fast internet access, their Pure, Gamer and Business fibre broadband plans provide a customised, enhanced level of service that goes far beyond what is possible on older technologies such as ADSL, VDSL or Cable.

MyRepublic started in Singapore in 2011, where they shifted the ISP landscape dramatically and now they plan to do the same here. MyRepublic is committed to delivering the benefits of the UFB for all kiwis.

Terrible Communication. Say they will do things but not do it. kept on sending the invoice late. I paid onetime but still got charged extra every month as their payments team don't clear direct debits in time. Cancelled my contract - they just keep sending more bills.

Response from the ISP

Reviews are a vital part of our growth. And for that, we are most grateful, Lawrence. We keep it personal. We don’t enjoy dealing with a big faceless corporation and we don’t believe you do either. We want to bring a personal and people-centric approach to every touchpoint we have to interact with our customers. We are a part of one of the biggest changes to the telecommunications industry in decades – and we love it. We embrace technology and use it to create true value for our customers by doing things a little bit differently. Thank you again, for your honest feedback. All the best, The Team @ MyRepublic

Anton 3.6

I switched after the service became so slow I couldn't stream anymore. They tried to charge me $200 for their router six weeks after I returned it so get proof of delivery and keep it.

Pros

Bad enough that I decided to switch

Cons

Interruptions to service, slow speed & tried to charge $200 for a returned router

Gavin Benson 3.2

Shocked at the level of customer service during a changeover from another provider. Promises mad by sales department cannot be honoured. Only online chat support available which doesn't help when you need support to get online...

Pros

Cons

Online chat support only

Response from the ISP

We take customer satisfaction seriously and are glad to hear from you. Thank you for your feedback. At first, it would be challenging to contact us when you have no internet. You may likely contact us using your 4G mobile which is being utilised by the majority of our customers who at first share the sentiments as yourself. They are starting to appreciate the Live Chat Support. When you Live chat with us and if we deem that an outbound call is necessary to resolve your concerns, we will arrange a callback suitable to your availability, Gavin. For any questions or further assistance, you can send me an email jan.gaspay@myrepublic.net Warm regards, The Team @ MyRepublic
