onetel.co.uk Reviews

I would not recommend Onetel to ANYBODY!!!!! I have been with Onetel 3 times in total. Each time I left because I was unhappy with something. The last time was the worst and I would NEVER(!!!) use them again. The time before last, I used their internet dial up service and found it to be absolutely useless. They charged a connection fee and I had ...  Read the complete review

I recently visited a friend of mine who was using OneTel and decided to investigate their website to see how much calls would cost. I found that they were offering a £2 call credit to anyone who signed up online and I was very impressed by their prices (2.5p / min for a peak rate national call or 1p / min for an off peak local call). I ...  Read the complete review

ex-onetel customer, now use bestnetsa.com - Advantages: reliable - Disadvantages: expensive

I have no regrets about signing up to Onetel. I began using the 1p per minute service which works very well, and is fine if you are not online much. If you go for this option be sure to keep a track of your minutes yourself as there is no option to see your account mid-month. Using this service I never had a busy signal. When my ...  Read the complete review

Several months ago I signed up with Freeserve for their 1p per minute scheme. For some reason unknown to me they decided to charge me £12.99 for unlimited time online. After complaining and receiving compensation I realised that maybe it would be a good idea to pay a flat rate bill, that way I could stay online as long as I wanted without any ...  Read the complete review

I agree with Paddy, this ISP is as near faultless as one can reasonably expect. I use their £13.00 a month unlimited access package and have only experienced a few minor glitches. In fact, my only complaint is that although I was a long-time user of OneTel as a telephone service provider and their original (and still extant) 1p a minute web ...  Read the complete review

I have tried lots of internet survice providers including - AOL, Freeserve and BT, but I have changed to ONETEL, for my internet and calls. The internet is just £12.99 per month. You don't get cut off every two hours and the internet can be on day and night....no peak or off peak hours. The telephone is cheap too, cheaper than BT ...  Read the complete review

Superb - Advantages: Speed, Price , Options - Disadvantages: Could be cheaper

I started off with OneTel's cheap telephony service. Soon, on their website, I saw their ISP service that was 1p/min 24/7. I created my account, made the dial-up connection and started using the service. For over a year I had been using LibertySurf - I was one of the lucky ones who got off-peak unlimited surfing for only £20 for a whole year! ...  Read the complete review

I have to say that I love Onetel. Not because of the great content of their service. But simply because they are so easy to sign up and use and offer such great low-value connection calls. ABOUT THE COMPANY ----------------- Onetel is primarily a low-cost telephone service providing cheap local & international calls. It only ...  Read the complete review

I recently started using Ontel.net after getting my Totalise Ultimate Surf Account terminated (for using it! - but hey, that's another story!!!) Anyhow, I plumped for Onetel in the interim before I decide on who to use next due to the fact that they offer 1p per minute access at all times - and being a daytime user, the fact that I ...  Read the complete review

I note that some reviewers have had problems, maybe I have been lucky but I have been with them since Sep 1999 and they have offered faultless service: not one bad line, dropped call or billing error. This review is about their phone service rather than their ISP which I have updated separately. Some points though relate to any ...  Read the complete review

Yes it only costs 1P a minute at all times to connect to the Internet via One-Tel and unlike AOL there's no monthly subscription. You are billed monthly, but there's no obligation, if you don't use it, you don't get billed. You need to sign up free to One-Tel's telephone service too, but again there's no ...  Read the complete review

We have used onetel for 4 months and have found it to be very good at first but now it seems busy and we have trouble connecting. It is cheap 1p a minute 24-7. Thye do not bill you until you get to a certain level of spending. They offer 3 email addressess, web space, helpline, virutal service centre. They are also bringing out an ASDL hopefully ...  Read the complete review

To choose an ISP (Internet Service Provider) can be very tricky. Either they charge you large amounts of money or their service is very poor or they go tits-up just after you paid that ££ for "life-time" connection. It gets even trickier if you are not a BT-customer because many ISPs rely on discounts from BT. OneTel ...  Read the complete review

Although we use NTL for our normal telephone and internet usage we use onetel for our international calls and some of the national numbers that we call regularly. Having all of my in-laws living in Zimbabwe means that we call their regularly and sometimes spend a long time on the phone. Once we've spoken to all of my husbands brothers and ...  Read the complete review

One tel has Great internet access as well as a good telephone company. It is 1p per minute 24 hours a day, every day. much better than other services. I use it as my secondry isp for the week and use freeserve on the weekend. Its only disadvantage is that is Is slightly slower than some of the others. So not good for online gaming. ...  Read the complete review

OneTel is the best weapon against high phone bills I have found. Check it out online at (www.onetel.co.uk). Now offering further savings with the new low rate of 1p per minute rate for all calls within the UK. It advertised as good value for national and international call savings. But that's not all - due the greed of BT on ...  Read the complete review

I need to ring America on a regular basis as I have a villa in Orlando and I was dreading the phone bills till I found about one-tel. It is absolutely brilliant and even a simpleton like me was able to sign up. There is no minimum call charge. It was a freephone telephone number to ring to sign up. It was all done over the phone ...  Read the complete review
