What do our members say?

"Chess are very good - If we have a problem, we phone them and speak to a person who solves the issue for us, They're cheaper than BT too"

Paul Hewitt, Hewitt Cycles, Lancashire

 

"Chess saved me over £400 per year. It was an easy swap - no real work on my part, we're now paying much less for our calls"

Simon Bownes, 18 Bikes, Derbyshire

 

"I cannot recommend Chess highly enough. We got a very reasonable all-calls-included deal on business phone and broadband, but it's their customer service that's really impressed me. UK-based and the people who answer the phone really know what they're talking about - and they answer the phone instantly, I can't remember ever waiting on hold. When we had an issue with our phone line they spent about 45 minutes on the phone explaining exactly what was causing the problem and what the options were to solve it. And if you're an ACT subscriber you get a big discount."

Jake Voelcker, Jake's Bikes - servicing and repair specialists

 

"We're completely reliant on good connectivity. No-one understands this better than Chess. They really see the bigger picture, how everything, from team working to customer communication and cloud computing are all completely dependent on being online, 24/7. They don't just supply an internet connection, they support our entire operation."

Jo Green, Biggs Gillespie
