Pathetic Service, I suggest to never use it

Since last 2 months, I am following up continuously with Budget Thuis regarding my issue, but they keep giving lame excuses and don't even show any intent to resolve the issue. I suggest to never use this company as they do not even bother to respond. Lets spread the word and ensure that users are aware of their pathetic service. Even though they are unable to resolve the issue, they are rude enough not to cancel their subscription, hiding behind the contract. Lets ensure that we together teach a lesson to such companies that they dare not to play with user/ clients.

Unfair Charges by Budget Thuis for Faulty Fiber Box Replacement

I was a customer of Budget Thuis for fiber internet. After they installed the fiber box at my home, the internet stopped working just 1.5 months later. I contacted the company, and after an hour-long video call, they decided to send a technician to my home. The technician identified a problem with the fiber box and replaced it.

Subsequently, the company charged me 65 euros for the technician's visit. Since the fiber box is not my property and it malfunctioned only 1.5 months after installation, I find this charge unfair. Upon contacting the company, they claimed they could not investigate the cause of the problem and suggested that the customer could be at fault, thus justifying the charge.

This response is both unreasonable and irresponsible. How else was I supposed to resolve the issue without a technician's intervention? Consequently, I have canceled my contract with Budget Thuis.

Dear Omer,

What a shame to read that you have canceled your contract. Ofcourse we find this very unfortunate! What is important in this situation is what exactly was done by our technician. If it is a problem within the home, such as a broken connection point, something with the cabling or a defective modem, then the costs are indeed justified. In the event of a problem outside the home, such as at the KPN exchange, we will bear the costs.

I assume that this provides a little more clarity.

The worst customer service experience…

The worst customer service experience ever. I have had an issue to connect my internet at home and it is impossible to reach out to them (the message says waiting time under 3-5 mins and after 30 minutes nobody answers). Only time I got them on the chat, they said I needed to call for my issue, 0 support. I have also sent an email and nothing. After 10 days of the effective date, still without internet nor support. I would completely avoid to have anything with them.

We are happy to handle this for you! Would you please contact customer service for this? You can reach us on 020 - 20 555 55 (it is very quiet now), or you can send a message via Facebook/Instagram.

No internet not fix after switching to Budget Thuis

I’ve had the exact same problem as the review written by one of the reviews below . I have no internet no tv after the switching date and I’m not able to cancel the service. A technician was supposed to install the service. It’s a new fiber connection so I can’t do it myself. However Budget Thuis screwed up the order and for some reason can’t figure it out and rectify the problem. I’ve called, emailed and chatted with them almost on a daily basis but I’m getting nowhere. I called Ziggo yesterday to see if I could reinstall my previous service and they were super helpful saying the could help immediately by reinstalling my service on a cancel anytime basis. However as Budget demand I can’t cancel even though they have not delivered the service I would be stuck with two subscriptions. This has been a nightmare, especially for someone who works from home and has a smart house! I would never recommend Budget Thuis service to anyone.

And now I see that Budget Thuis has asked me to get in touch with them but as written, I’ve done that every day to no help. I think it’s time you got in touch with me!

Poor Wifi installation service

I decided to contract Budget ALLES-IN-1 as I was very satisfied with the Energy service.

The technician arrived late and this prevented me from keeping a pending appointment, for which I had to pay €60. But if you are not at the appointment on time, they fine you €65, although they do not compensate the customers who are affected with a long wait.

Although the installation technician was absolutely friendly, his first opinion was that he could not install the TV without fiber optics and that would cost me an additional €65. Another solution was found, fortunately.
He finally did the installation in a room and the wires he ran from the living room were left all over the floor.

As he left, I realized that I didn't know what a packaged remote control was for; what channels I have access to or anything else, simply because the technician didn't explain it to me.

I felt up in the air and having to guess what to do next.

Four months after the installation, I have not been able to watch TV because I did not know how to program it.

I called Budget Thuis and they explained to me that he let me pay around €80-150, I CAN'T REMEMBER, I'M NOT SURE.
The operator was incredibly friendly and wanting to help as much as possible, but we could not do anything.
Additionally, my doorbell with video constantly has a weak signal, because the coverage is interrupted because it is not coming from the living room but from a room and there are obstacles in the way to the front door.

I switched from Ziggo and I regret it. They detailed everything to me and the technician didn't leave until he was sure my TV worked with them and the technician even set up a second account for me to give them third party wifi, if risk of giving them access to my main wifi.
I switched to Budget Thuis because i was facing issues with the poor connection with Ziggo. Currently, I'm going through a very similar situation with BT.

On top of that, the price is higher than other providers. So i wonder where customers get any advantage hiring this service.

It would be so satisfying to receive a good technical service that makes my TV work and enjoy a good coverage of the internet! But...

I can't cancel the contract because i would lose money. So, I hope the 2 years go by quickly so I can switch providers.

Good afternoon Veruscha,

First of all, thank you very much for this clear review, we can really do something with this.
I understand it all completely and I also understand it left you with a feeling of regret changing provider.
What we do is sending an expert to people with fiber internet for only the first ''basic installation'' for free. This means that our experts only have to do the basics of the installation, which is connecting the modem, the TV and the telephone of the house (so needed) than making sure that it works. If this is not the case you should call us and say that they didn't finish the basic intallation completely so we can send someone else. We would really like to help you further in this situation so we can come to a good solution together. You can always give us a call on 0202055555 option 3. Hopefully we hear from you and we can do something! We also wish you unless everything an amazing day.

Kind regards,

moved Leiden to Hague in Aug, but kept charging old account

moved from Leiden to Hague in Aug, and informed them with online form; after a month, I noticed that they were still charging me for previous place; I called and they said that they cannot find my moving application; I emailed them documentation showing that I moved (contract for new place, check out form for old place); they finally closed my previous contract only in Oct, and charged me for electricity at previous place until then. Talking with (human) customer service was like talking with a robot. Clearly, this is done on purpose.

Dear Alejandro,

Thank you for your review. I find it incredibly unpleasant to hear that you have been without internet services for a longer time. Our apologies for this! At the time you were without services, we had a telephone line issue. I understand that it has been very annoying that you could not reach us at that time while you needed us that much. I hope that the services are active again by now and that you are not experiencing any more problems. We would like to help you properly and come to an appropriate solution. I have therefore e-mailed you asking you to send us additional information about the situation. As soon as we receive your response, we will reach out to you.

Thank you for your patience and apologies again!

Kind regards,

The worst company I ever dealt with

The worst company I ever dealt with. I bought internet contract from them. They were quick to start the contract. But, I do not have internet even after one month of starting the contract. I am paying monthly bill without internet. Their technician books appointment to fix but does not come. When, I asked to terminate the contract, they will not terminate. The customer care says they can not do anything.
