      Starhub 500Mbps Fibre Broadband

      Previously used Starhub but now I switched broadband. The reason is Starhub 5G does not work in most places. Even at home, where I have good connectivity, it's mostly 4G network and rarely I get 5G connection.

      I recently changed from StarHub to ViewQuest. Do note that there is termination charge of ~ $32 even the contract is finished.

      We've just moved to Singapore. Star Haub is considered the best here.  We have found that even with difficulties they respond within hours rather than days.  Our case was that a technician thought the parking was to hard and passed us by.  A few calls to Star Haub got a second team of technicians so we had connection on the date agreed.  Thats good work on their part.  Happy to recommend them.

      i am a senior in my 60s and subscribe to Starhub $8 plan. For 2 years, they charged more than $8 and the highest was $10.50. However in January 2023, they put in many add-ons which i was not aware. It totalled $19.52. I called the customer service and the girl called Zara answered, told me that she would cancelled the add-ons and waived the charges. However, in February 2023, I found out that she was lying to me, although the add-ons were cancelled like what she said, but i had to pay for them. It is really a scam! I did not request for add-ons and without my knowledge they charged the add-ons. It is a matter of principle, customers like me did not request for add-ons and yet they conveniently just charge the fee. Starhub is really very unkind and scamming seniors like me who are not IT savy. It is terrible

      I have the same issue. I changed the router 2 years back and problem persists. I think it is the model problem.

      [Customer Service] Starhub's customer service is good. I'm happy with that. [Connectivity and Speed] With respect to the subject matter, it is not bad, improving the network with good quality in recent years.

      Starhub 1Gbps Fibre Broadband - 12m

      Hi, We would like to share our horrible experience with Starhub for 5 days. Last Tuesday we came back home and surprisingly our internet connection was down. We informed them by whatsapp and email and finally call them because their robot only advised us to switch off switch on our modem. After many attempts we eventually got someone from the hotline who didn t fix our issue and booked an appintment with the technician for 2 days later means on Thursday. After 3 days without Internet, the technician came on Thursday morning, he didn't manage to solve the issue and said Internet will be fixed from central later on that Thursday. End of Thursday, we still NOT have Internet, we contacted the customer care service of Starhub again who said they will call us on Friday 2pm to give us update ( update of what? we just wanted Internet working). Friday 2pm , they just call us to inform us that their network is not working and will update TOMORROW means Saturday! As of today, nobody is able to tell us when we can have Internet. That is why we asked them to terminate our contract without early termination cost as they are not able to provide the service we are paying for. Their answer per mail was to grant us 10$ waiver for the disagreement but still want us to pay $370 ETC. It is unacceptable that Starhub wants customer pay ETC but they are not able to commit themself on providing the broadband service to the customer. Now Saturday and no Internet... We had to pay mobile data for 4 days now...alternatively go outside to find free wifi... Imagine how convenient it is for children to do homework and husband who work at home. We wanted to share our experience for those who have to choose the best Internet provider.
