I mean it’s alright I suppose

App seems to work but the UI doesn’t properly respect Apple accessibility features. Being old and somewhat short sighted I have text size increased a little. Which causes page formatting to break on the app. My name sits on top of my address, formatting of the home services section is a bit strange and the due date of current bill overruns the green space it should sit within.
As I said it works ok but clearly the UI testing is inadequate and it makes me wonder where else the dev is lacking in quality.

Better

Idk why people hate it. It’s certainly better than the mobile website.

Cannot login after latest update

After updating to the latest version I cannot login. I enter my email address and it says user already activated login with your email and password. Except there is no options to do that. I click on already have a login try a different email address so I enter my registered email address and it then tries to send me a one time passcode which never arrives then it says yet again I am already registered please enter email and password. It just a loop with no actual possibility of entering my password. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but still doesn’t let me login.

Avoid!

I had been with BRSK since they moved into our area, unfortunately they were bought out by Netomnia/Youfibre. While on BRSK the service was great, 2gb and BetterIP, rock solid. Since having been migrated to YF, not only has the service been unstable, to the point that it has now not been completely off for 3 days with still no sign of an engineer, I have also been informed that there is another person named on my account, I’m the sole account holder! Two out of three times I’ve called to get assistance I’ve been hung up on, and when you do manage to speak to someone their level of support is “reboot your router and the box on the wall (ONT), download speedtest and run that”. This is regardless of how many times things have been rebooted and speedtest has already been run… emails from their support team saying they’ve tried several times to contact you when in reality it’s the first time they’ve sent an email, an email the starts “Dear [Customer Name]” because their own systems are so bad they can’t even manage contact merging.
YF is just a shambles, a complete joke, and the worst service I’ve ever had the misfortune to encounter. As BRSK customers we expected things to deteriorate after the take over, but nothing like this, this is truly next level shambolic.

Terrible and basic app

I recently became a YouFibre customer and downloaded the app. Since day one the app had returned an error of ‘Something that has gone wrong Please try again’. I’ve since download the latest app with apparently bug fixes but the errors are still happening. hopefully this app and it’s Customer Service improves.

Not functional.

YouFibre internet has been good overall, but the app simply doesn’t work. I simply get a pop up that displays repeatedly every second saying “something went wrong” or “Cannot get /CustomerPortal/v1.0/dunning/account/total-overdue”. Very annoying since the recent change to only allow chat via the app, making contact difficult. I thought this was due to my account still saying pending, however, it now says active yet the problem persists.

It’s hard to get any support

I’ve recently been switched from Brisk, without even anyone be kind to notify me about. I’ve tried to contact support about my billing which is not correct but it’s impossible. I understand that chat might be full and that’s why they’ve switch it off on the weekend but on Monday morning it’s still off for the same reason, I doubt that it has so many people in the queue from the morning. I’ve also sent an email , week passed and still no reply. Brisk was replying to emails at least much faster. So it’s not a good first experience from the customer side at all.

Why push an app that doesn’t work?

We have just been ported over to YouFibre from BRSK. YouFibre (or BRSK?) cancelled our Direct Debit without telling us, then sent us a brusque email, literally on both our BRSK normal billing date and the day of the porting, telling us we had an overdue bill and that we would be cut off in 4 days’ time.

Since I have have had no previous interaction with YouFibre, I wanted to ring them to ensure this was a genuine email (and complain about the brusqueness), but this proved impossible: multiple calls went unanswered. There is no way of accessing the support chat via the website, which pushes this app.

Unfortunately, the app chat function doesn’t work either. Messages are sent into the ether and no-one replies (it’s been two days now). Neither does YouFibre respond to emails, so I can only conclude that they want this customer to leave. Very glad to do so.

Cannot login

Since update when you enter your details to login, the app continuously resets for adding your details.
Cannot even change password as when you click the link sent in the email it takes you straight to the standard app login and the above occurs.
YouFibre only support live chat via app now so when you cannot login, you are left with the dire phone support

Completely Broken

Hey I'm a new YouFibre customer and the app hasn't worked once. I've reinstalled it several times, tried mobile and WiFi data and so on. Whenever I try to load this app I get instant and repeated red errors at the top "something whe wrong please try again". I can login to it and then I receive this broken page. At the bottom are a lot of duplicate articles states 'loading article title'.

No idea what's wrong but it's a bad first impression on the app side at least.

Good layout

The app is basic allowing to see bills etc. we use parental controls at home with the children to manage WiFi access to devices. The BT app used to allow you to set this in their app. To do this with you fibre it has to be done in router settings and is difficult to read I would prefer to set times as opposed to th current view. Maybe future updates can look at integrating this into the app for comvenience

Has been great for me

Don’t know where all the hate is from? Maybe they’ve updated the app after I joined, used the app to report and issue and had an engineer come the same day, have also used the live chat to arrange the contract buy-out and that well too. No complaints, good app and fast net!

Terrible

0 stars if it was possible. The good reviews must be bots of people who have been payed. App doesn’t work, customer service done reply, like chat workers are unresponsive, can’t change billings details, can’t change account details, they don’t answer the phone, they say they have tried to call you when they haven’t. Just absolutely appalling. Please avoid for your own sake.

Response from developer

Hi there, Sorry to hear about your bad experience in the app and with the lack of support you are receiving. Thanks for highlighting an issue that we weren't aware of. We are investigating the billing issues that you have experienced and hope to have this fixed as soon as possible. If you could email us at hello@youfibre.com and highlight that you raised a review on the app, our Customer Services team will assist where they can. Many thanks YouFibre App Team

Customer service

Customer service never accurate, gave misleading information stated service would resume in hour, app is not fully operational, out of hours staff are vague and have no executive authority essentially just taking notes not really any actionable service, 12 pm most nights the fibre goes to sleep, a bit pricey for the top speed, buts comparable to lower bandwidths
App gets 3 out of 10 for functionality.

Awful

Not sure how this got through Apple’s review. I login and met with blank sections and banners where text obviously should be. Going to billing shows countless errors and API endpoints. Billing then shows everything costing £100 and is clearly test data. The support docs are all placeholders and not actual text. Clicking support and sending a message seems to work as I get a push notification response - but I cannot see the message in the app in chat or by touching the notification. A reply from me creates a new issue to them and a new person responds and I then got told to stop messaging them as it was spamming their systems. I’ve tried emailing them and got no response. This is the worst app I’ve ever seen. 1 star is overstating.

Response from developer

Hi there, We’re really sorry to hear about this experience and understand how frustrating it must have been. What you’re describing isn’t the standard experience we expect anyone to have, and we apologise for the disruption and confusion it caused. The issues you’ve highlighted including missing content, incorrect pricing, and problems with in-app support messaging are not intentional and indicate a fault that we will need to investigate. Your feedback is genuinely helpful in identifying where things have gone wrong. We’d like to properly look into this and resolve it for you. If you’re willing, please contact our support team via hello@youfibre.com with your device type, OS version, and any screenshots you’re able to share, and we’ll prioritise reviewing this. Again, we’re sorry for the experience and appreciate you taking the time to flag these issues. Thanks YouFibre App team

Great app but…

Can dark mode be based on system settings? It would also be great to see usage stats on the app as well.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thanks for the 5* feedback! The dark mode should already inherit your system's settings, so if it isn't we'll investigate and put a fix in place. We have had usage statistics on our backlog for a while now but other features are taking priority currently. Hopefully mid next year we might have something for usage. Keep your eyes peeled! Thanks YouFibre App team

Terrible app

The company was very responsive when they first started. Now it's impossible to get anyone on the phone or by chat. Another case of too much expansion without properly investing in the company infrastructure. The app is a disaster, can't reach chat because the send bar is off the screen! Stay with BT. Theyre crooks but at least they offer customer service.
