Hello there! I have a house within Hull and like all other people in the city, I am FORCED to use the karoo service for my broadband connection, which is extremely poor value. When will the guys there sort this service out? The packages from Karoo are so far behind the rest of the country. For example Sky is launching its broadband service soon, 2meg speed for free if your already a subscriber! (which i am) 8 meg for a fiver a month or 16 meg for a tenner! now compare that to karoo's service half a meg speed for a 10 pounds, 20 pounds for 2meg and a whopping 30 pounds for 3meg (which is their fastest!) I am on the 20 pounds a month package and I appreciate there ...  Read the complete review

Karoo is the worst ISP I have ever come across!!! I had my account hacked a couple days back, and as a result the intruder gained access to one of Karoo's systems, so I was told. My account got disabled and I had to send in a letter promising this would not happen again even though I did not do this. There service poor, costly, and they tech guys/gals don't know anything.

I had a mixture of upper and lowercase characters to gain access to both the internet and email wich I had been using for a number of months. Today I tried to get access to my email and it would not accept my ...  Read the complete review

As part of my job I install and configure networks in and around the Hull area. I have setup a good number of ADSL connections for businesses and residential users over the past year and always find Karoo's ADSL service problematic. While the quality of the basic ADSL and ISP services are average, when working, and even the bandwidth made available by the service is excellent, Karoo manage to completely destroy any viability as a quality service. To begin with I'll start with the prices charged by Karoo. For residential users the prices are as follows (at the time of writing this review) (Prices include VAT): Installation ...  Read the complete review
