I've been using their Fibre Max for a while now and everything's been good. The switch over went super smoothly and I was up and running within 2 hours of calling them. Internet speed still good even during peak hours. The only thing is their support team doesn't work past 6 PM, which is kinda weird compared to some of the bigger ISPs. But honestly, they respond pretty quick and always get my issues solved in no time. They're way better than those "restart-your-modem" guys, I'll tell ya that.
Pros
no
Cons
no

Peter Lord 5.0
Terrible onboarding experience.
Despite asking for my previous provider's account number, NOW did not initiate the cancellation process, resulting in me paying as a result of a much longer cross-over period.

On setting up, they did not provide sufficient information to transfer to NOW's fibre - support had to be contacted for this to made clear. Only noticed because I was monitoring the daily traffic use on each account.
Pros
Cons
Not a signatory to the Fibre Customer Transfer Code, and can't be bothered doing it.

Have used BigPipe since I started paying for my own internet way-back when. Never ever have I had issues with connectivity, download speeds, upload speeds or anything else. Highly recommend.
Pros
Fast connections, easy set-up, great support team
Cons
On the pricey side in the current market.

Hamish 6.4
They are good for phone customer service but they are really slow by email sometimes it takes like a week or days to hear back from them and they are happy to cancel my internet without trying to take me back they are happy to give me a customer credit and that's it

And if you going to get the customer credit you be given a year but if you don't renew it they will charge you fully on your last month even if you are still on contact with them that's really poor
Pros
good customer service by phone and good speeds
Cons
customer credit only last for 11 months not 12 months and poor email from them

Harbinder Gill 10.0
It was a delightful experience communicating with the staff of Now. We were particularly impressed by their commitment to work, professional conduct, cheerful demeanor & above all a display of positive & helpful attitude. We would strongly recommend Now fibre to one & all. Well Done & Keep Up the Excellent Show!!!
