I highly recommend Digital Direct! After having huge issues with Virgin and switching to TalkTalk, we needed someone to come out to install a complete new aerial at my elderly mom’s place. Elaine at Digital Direct knew what I was talking about straight away, kept me updated with appointment times, and was generally wonderful! Richard then came out, had a look, explained what needed doing and gave me a quote. We had the work done there and then, and it was completed in around an hour. I honestly couldn’t be happier! This company are fast, professional, courteous and explain everything well. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again, and I highly recommend them. Huge thanks to both Elaine and Richard, mom and I are extremely grateful!

Called Digital Direct for a visit to see what was required. Had an engineer called Ben arrive same day .. Ben was informative, worked cautiously and very tidy. After and before service calls from Elaine as well. So my experience dealing with Digital Direct was an extremely positive one and would recommend ..
Thank you. Mark, Stourbridge, on Trustpilot, 12th July 2022.

I called for an engineer as my TV viewing was almost non-existent. Ben came out, assessed the situation and when I gave him the go ahead he proceeded with the work in a professional and thorough way. I am delighted, I now have a TV that can provide the channels I want and for a reasonable price. From start (my initial call to Elaine) to finish (Ben coming out and completing the work) it was a painless service.
Thank you.

Elaine in the office was very accommodating and polite. When Ben the engineer arrived to mount our TV he made himself known and gave us a very competitive quote. When we went ahead he asked us if we were happy with where it was going and how it would look. 10/10 service, and it looks great.

Absolutely outstanding service from this company Elaine was first point of call and arranged a visit within hours of me calling on each occasion, this was brilliant as was Andy who told me “ no I definitely don’t need a new Ariel “ Andy went on to solve the issue and took the time and effort to explain to me what he was doing. On the strength of these two people I would most definitely use D.D. again and would recommend them to anyone else. Many many thanks, Pauline. Kidderminster, on Trustpilot, 9th July 2022.

Nick, Sarah, AJ all provided a brilliant service to us installing aerials including test and commissioning at Rolls Royce !

Sarah and the girls based at head office are great. They are friendly, helpful and always return a call when the say. After discussing with Sarah what are thoughts were, she swiftly arranged for an assessment of our property to be done by an engineer 48 hours later. Here we discussed what are issues were, the need for a system, where we wanted to be covered and went through all the different types of system avaliable to us. Straight from this assessment Sarah and the team very quickly had the parts we wanted ordered and an installation date was set.
