New aerial

I called Home Services and told them that I needed a new aerial as I no longer wanted to continue with Sky. I was told that they would call me in the morning. They called and were at my house by 10.30 a.m. Colin was polite and informative and gave me options in a way that was easy to understand. On giving him the go ahead, he carried out the installation in a professional manner. There was some debris from drilling the wall but he cleaned everything up. All in all a very good service and I would happily recommend him to others.

Quick service

Sent an online request in the morning, received a response by phone a short time later and the aerial was fitted in the afternoon restoring my service to what it should have been. The engineer was well presented, friendly and knowledgeable.
Carried out the installation in jig time left no mess when he left.
Easily and without hesitation a five star rating!

First class

First of all get the negative out of the way 😉 - I thought I was dealing with a local company, it was a local telephone dialling code, and I prefer to give business out locally. I realise now that this was not the case.
That said the service received was excellent, both from the office side of things and the engineer himself.
They promised a free site survey with no obligation.
My elderly mother in law, housebound and very ill, could not work her Sky TV and we just needed a straightforward TV aerial so she could get all the terrestrial channels and make life simpler for her.
Brett, the engineer, phoned me several times to update me on his arrival time and duly arrived as promised. He was friendly, efficient and professional and respectful and considerate to my ma-in-law.
Brett checked the existing aerial, which was fine and merely needed a booster, and a new PSU in the house as old one not working. £110 all in.
I have no hesitation in recommending Brett and the company. Very happy and my ma-in-law can use her telly with just one remote so she's happy too!

Absolutely rubbish

Absolutely rubbish. I phoned and booked a week prior to my appointment. Was told I'd be visited between 14.00 and 17.00 and the engineer would contact me 30 minutes prior to the visit. I get a phone call at 16.55 stating the engineer was delayed at the previous appointment, "but we will get an engineer to you tomorrow, guaranteed."
I call at 14.45 today to be told "someone tried to call you this morning." I had no missed calls from this company so I know that's not true.
"Our engineer called in sick this morning. We can get an engineer to you on monday." I'd booked it for the Friday as I work 9-6 most days and deliberately took the Friday afternoon off for this, and then had to reschedule everything for the Saturday! I told them it was poor service and I won't be rebooking. Don't bother with them!!

Brilliant job

Absolutely brilliant service today. Paul did an amazing job , TV on wall, not a wire in sight , neat cable cover to socket. Clean tidy worker.
Thought the quote was a bit more expensive than I seen elsewhere at first and paid before , but you get what you pay for, I had cheaper one before plastic visible etc. perfect smooth finish , worth the bit extra for the standard of work.

I found these to be very professional and courteous.The engineer just made the time promised but he office phoned me 10mins prior to check if he had arrived who assured me he was coming and wouldn't be much longer which he wasn't, good customer care.The engineer explained and backed up his diagnoses so when the remedial works was suggested i felt it was warranted and justified. Thanks

Over priced rip off

I was not at home when the man called to see to our problem, we were not receiving terrestial tv channels. He went onto the garage roof to see that the receiver was corroded, replaced it, tuned the tv in, was here all of 24 minutes and ripped us off to the tune of £185, didn't mention that VAT was on top which totalled £198. No receipt was given, I was told one would be sent in the post. We later discovered the receiver can be bought for £20-£30, but neither of us, in our 70's are able to do the job ourselves. My wife phoned to discuss with customer services manager on two occasions and was told that person only worked Saturdays, I am still waiting for a call back 2 months later. Their ad is misleading in that it implies the engineer is local to each area covered, head office is in Glasgow, we are in Folkestone, the engineer came from Dartford.

Read the 1 star reviews

Read the 1 star reviews. Not the 5 stars.

My elderly parents Freesat stopped working in Jan and I found Aerial Express online, and it looked like a local company. On 24 Jan my mother made the call (01344 area) and sure enough, a technician was at the house the same day. The technician was polite, diagnosed the problem quickly (a cracked dish on the back wall - it was 15 years old) and had the dish replaced along with the LNB in less than 45 minutes from arriving. All good so far.

He then charged them £426.00. He ‘wasn’t able’ to provide a receipt. He said he would forward one about a week later.

My parents are both well into their 80s. My mum has terminal cancer and my dad has dementia. My mother isn’t aware of the going price for work like this, but I am. £150 to £200 for an installation from scratch is about right so £426 for a simple dish replacement is simply a rip-off. The technician was 'Ricky' and a Ricky is mentioned in another negative review here. Not saying its the same guy but...

It took a month or so, and advice from the Citizens Advice Bureau (they were excellent), and eventually got £200 begrudgingly refunded. At £226 this is still over priced for a simple dish swap. This looks like the fitter saw an opportunity to exploit some vulnerable people and the company backed him up. That's not right.

Avoid this company. They are not 'local' to anywhere - offices and customer helpline in Scotland, and it appears they then allocate a local company to do the work.
