Callum and team went above and beyond to get me a Starlink for our village fete after I was let down by an other provider. Amazing service and available to help over the bank holiday event despite lots of other events going on.

I had a great experience with Callum, who assisted me when I lost my software on the Yyt 380 due to a PC shutdown during an upgrade. I wholeheartedly recommend this company. Don

Outstanding service.

Outstanding service.
I contacted these guys a week before needing a hire for a friends wedding and they pulled strings and sorted out everything we needed. I turned up with my mixer and it was simply plug& play. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Fantastic Wedding Sound System and Lighting Rental!

We used Communic8 Hire for our wedding in Brecon, Powys. We decided to hire our own music and lights for the big day to save on a DJ. Callum was fantastic in the lead up to the day and is very knowledgeable when it comes to recommneding systems. He was quick to reply to our questions, and very patient with us, as we had never rented either a lighting or sound system before, so there were a lot of questions on our end! He gave very clear information, all of which gave us great confidence for the day. Callum was punctual and clear on his timings for set up and collection afterwards, and kept us updated on his timings throughout. He set everything up for us, gave us a run through on how to work the system, and was on hand on the phone if we needed anything during the day. The quality of the equipment and lights were fantastic as well. Callum was extremely helpful and friendly, and I would highly recommend them for anyone looking to rent their own sound systems and lighting. Thanks again Callum and the team at Communic8 Hire!

Great company !

I needed a rare programing cable for a mobile transceiver and they were the only ones to have it in stock.

The price was good.

Mailed them with a question and received a response promptly !

We used Communic8 Hire for a birthday party in Newport, Pembrokeshire. We decided to hire equipment and do our own music and lights. Callum gave me clear times on his arrival, set everything up for us, all we had to do was plug in the ipad. Super easy & helpful. The quality of the equipment and lights were brilliant, creating the best party ever. Thanks so much. I would definitely use again and would recommend if you want to save the cost of a DJ.

Communic8 Made Our Party!

We had such a fantastic experience with Communic8. We were turning an empty camping field in to a party location for 100 and the advice and professionalism we received in ordering festoon and fairy lighting was fantastic. The lights kept us dancing all night long and made the place look like magic. I would highly recommend Callum and his team for any project big or small

Hired PA system more than did the job for our wedding reception. Great sound. Friendly, quick and efficient setup and dismantling the next day. Willing to trek to very remote locations at short notice which is a huge bonus. Weren't super easy to get hold of in the run-up to the event, but that was down to Covid affecting staffing. Very helpful when we could get through.

PA system hire for wedding

I hired a PA system for my wedding and Communic8 Hire were fantastic throughout the whole process - they were really easy to contact; they accommodated us changing our date last minute due to Covid; and when it came to the wedding day they were incredibly efficient, friendly and knowledgable when setting up the PA system for the marquee. I would highly recommend them.

Replacement MD380 LCD

The display on my MD380 failed recently and after having a bit of a look at how easy it might be to replace though I'd guve it a shot. Having found Communic8 through Google, I popped them a message to determine cost of shipping.
I found Callum very helpful and knowledgable. Even factoring in the cost of shipping the LCD was very inexpensive.
It arrived well packaged and took a few minutes to swap in. When I powered up the radio, the display worked, but was flipped which is a common issue. Communic8 have a page describing the issue and how to fix. A quick email and I had a link to the software. Installed easily. The instructions were easy to follow and in a couple of minutes my radio was beck to 100% working order.
Many thanks for a great service!
