Hi all, I have just registered on this forum to share my experience with Excom as it may be helpful to others.
We chose Excom one year ago since at our location we have very limited choices of Wifi providers, Excom offers fiber and a pause in the contract if you are not at home for more than four weeks. Installation worked flawless. Technicians showed up on time. Wifi speed works as promised. Trouble starts when you get technical problems.
They have some kind of trouble ticket system; but when you open a ticket you don't see it there. The phone support always seems a bit confused and the number seems to change from time to time (for example, the number they give on their website doesn't currently work). You won't be able to get qualified answers (as I'm working in IT I have certain technical knowledge) but standard answers like "a technician will have to take a look at that", even if you give detailed information about the problem. We have been waiting for a technician for several days (!) after our access stopped working.
We will probably stay with Excom for the time being, as we have no other choice.
If you value better quality of service and cannot use alternative access (mobile internet, neighbor's wifi) in case of need, it is better to choose a more reliable provider.
Cheers, Andy
