My experience with Bonline has been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite the abysmal quality of their online phone service, I found myself unable to cancel my subscription easily. When I called to ensure my subscription would end after 12 months of practically unusable service, I was informed that it would be automatically renewed. Attempting to cancel became a Herculean task.

Upon requesting cancellation, I was directed to an elusive cancellation team after enduring a 10-minute wait. The promised email for cancellation instructions was misleading, as it merely instructed me to call them again. Frustrated, I decided to cancel my debit payment, only to find additional charges of £9.25 for changing the payment method and £5 for a late payment.

A second attempt at cancellation involved another 10-minute wait, only to be told I owed an additional £48GBP for administrative fees, disconnection fees, and a user contract buyout fee. It felt like a forced payment of £72GBP just to end an auto-renewal at the end of the subscription period.

Beware of Bonline's unfair practices - automatic renewals without consent, hidden charges, and a convoluted cancellation process. This company not only provides a subpar service but also engages in questionable billing tactics, leaving customers trapped and frustrated. Approach with extreme caution and explore more reliable options for online phone services.
