Real complaints submitted through Ajust

I’ve been with Dodo for years, but this year the internet keeps cutting out-sometimes for over 48 hours. I’ve spent hours on the phone trying to fix it, repeating the same steps every time, only for the issue to return days later. It’s exhausting and disruptive. - Tanya

When Dodo “upgraded” my internet, they connected it to the wrong address and wiped out my existing service. I’m 77, mostly bedridden, and rely on that connection for my landline and security system. It’s been over a week with no contact and no fix. - Sylvia

My internet speed with Dodo is nowhere near what I’m paying for, and the connection keeps dropping out. I just want a stable service that actually delivers what’s promised. - Craig

My phone service with Dodo went down, and as someone who relies on a medical monitor, I felt completely vulnerable. It was stressful not knowing if I’d be able to reach help in an emergency. I asked for compensation, but haven’t heard back.- Lynda
