TalkTalk Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • amilynneh Ami (@amilynneh) reported from Broughton and Bretton, Wales

    @TalkTalk I signed up to an 18 month contract sept 2018 but I am having so many issues with bad broadband it’s affecting my whole family we can’t watch a film together or get homework done.

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    I then spoke to a fault manager who also said the problem was my router. I told him that the fault was with the external BT Openreach wiring. I plugged in the crappy Huawei @TalkTalk router and lo and behold there was an external fault.

  • jemthedurb Jemma (@jemthedurb) reported from Farnham, England

    What a joke, just tried to call @TalkTalk to cancel my account after a year of awful broadband and multiple failed technicians and would you believe their systems are down and I have to call them back #irony #dontusetalktalk #poorservice #talktalkfailed

  • himynameisp0lly Polly (@himynameisp0lly) reported from Liverpool, England

    Honestly @TalkTalk are theeee worsssssst internet provider I’ve ever had. Actually robbing me blind for a shite service. Can’t wait to bail them off.

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    Now I use my own router rather than the dodgy Chinese one supplied by @TalkTalk. I was also fairly confident that there was no problem with our internal wiring but the ‘engineer’ proceeded to cut the wires to all our internal sockets.

  • boshamBaker suzanna mashal (@boshamBaker) reported from Bosham, England

    @TalkTalk thank you for suggesting via customer service agents, that I was ‘confused’. Over 30 mins wasted with no resolutions or explanations. Appalling service to a customer of over 10 years.

  • DadThorverton Thorverton_Dad (@DadThorverton) reported from Thorverton, England

    @TalkTalk It has been that ONLY the 2.4g has been dropping out, not working while 5g and wired are rock solid. Was told that I had to have an engineer visit as it was a problem in my property causing the issue, not a faulty router as I still believe. Being charged for a visit I didn't want

  • bigleish96 donald mcneil (@bigleish96) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    beeeen total shambles by talktalk this week you view box is faulty so been trying to get new one finally got one ordered operator techical dept were brilliant just useless email help was hopeless very annoyed

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    I tried @TalkTalk’s ‘live chat’ to explain that their engineer had decimated our house wiring but I was then told the problem was my router. (Lesson to self -Do NOT use live chat)

  • bethanythomas16 bethany thomas (@bethanythomas16) reported from Camden Town, England

    @TalkTalk Apparently a openreach engineer needs to come out to have a look, but I’ve been given no timings or any information I’ve been paying for the service since I moved in a week ago and I’m not any closer to getting internet

  • HeatherTasoren Heather Tasoren (@HeatherTasoren) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @TalkTalk An engineer left here at about 2.45pm saying that he cannot fix my issue unless he can access the neighbours’ gardens ( at least 2 neighbours who are not in today) to access the telegraph poles. He told me he was going to leave notes for them to contact yourselves.1/N

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    We waited in for the engineer. Surprisingly he turned up on time. He said that he was here to fix the ‘bridge tap’ which was all he did. @TalkTalk said there was a problem with our internal wiring.

  • S18_Blade Dirk Digby (@S18_Blade) reported from Dronfield, England

    @TalkTalk No one knows what the issue is. This Engineer may come and shrug his shoulders

  • aberfoodblog Tony Jones (@aberfoodblog) reported from Llanychaiarn, Wales

    @TalkTalk Broadband problem logged. 1. New router sent, pointlessly. 2. Engineer sent out. Wrongly told we had to be in. Didn't fix it 3. Trying to find out what's going on, your system says another engineer will be sent out Your inefficiency must cost you a fortune @MarianJebb

  • RyeMTaylor Ryan M Taylor (@RyeMTaylor) reported from Huntingdon, England

    @TalkTalk Hello. Can you please confirm why you feel it acceptable to put this scam protect thing on my account. That I can’t disable no one at tech support. And I can’t do the work I need to get done because of it.

  • DadThorverton Thorverton_Dad (@DadThorverton) reported from Thorverton, England

    Grrrrr. I rarely tweet but @TalkTalk have ruined my day off. Tried unsuccessfully to obtain a new router, been talked down to like I am a child and charged for an engineer I didn't request or need! Why the heck did I ever leave @virginmedia. Indian call centres are so aggressive!

  • bainbridgexo Sophie (@bainbridgexo) reported from Stratford, England

    @TalkTalk Yeah but only put it in today (my bad)

  • BradeLeeStevens Braden ♔ (@BradeLeeStevens) reported from Birmingham, England

    @TalkTalk my WiFi really has been awful since I had it installed last week. I can’t connect to anything

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    So two number changes later, we no longer use the landline much. We’ve now got no extension sockets despite not ever having a problem before. We’ve spent hours talking to @TalkTalk but there’s one big problem....

  • S18_Blade Dirk Digby (@S18_Blade) reported from Dronfield, England

    @TalkTalk internet goes down and is suddenly a BT open reach problem. Cant get an engineer out until Wednesday #shoddy

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    He then pronounced that he had ‘improved’ the speed and left saying it would get better still in a couple of days. The problem was that there was no change - other than courtesy of @TalkTalk we no longer had working extension sockets.

  • masikane_tumi Tumi_MSK (@masikane_tumi) reported from Poplar, England

    @TalkTalk hi. Internet is down. Been problematic since last night. Internet light is red on my router

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    It started with @TalkTalk trying to be helpful. Their “tests” had detected a fault with our line - so the email said - and they would send an engineer free of charge to fix it.

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    The problem is that you cannot trust @TalkTalk. They lost our data to a plague of Nigerian hackers who pestered us daily. Then they gave us a new telephone number which was from another customer whose data had been lost.

  • alltimeanja AJU 🌵 (@alltimeanja) reported from Seaham, England

    @TalkTalk You've got to be taking the mick. I spend half an hour on the phone with a stupid advisor who hasn't done her job!!!!!

  • emyee20 Emily Haydon (@emyee20) reported from South Shore, England

    So @virginmedia after 8 years of loyal custom you want to charge us more for our T.V and internet than we have been paying, or that our friends pay ......jog on! @TalkTalk @SkyHelpTeam @bt_uk what t.v and internet packages can you offer a loyal customer.

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    .@TalkTalk then refused to send an engineer out to fix the damage they had done. They are insisting on me sending another crappy router as apparently they cannot test the line (despite saying at the beginning of all this that their tests had shown a problem with our wiring.)

  • TheSimonC90 🏳️‍🌈🌟Simon🌟🏳️‍🌈 (@TheSimonC90) reported from Chelmsford, England

    Talktalk are just utterly horrendous for Internet. I lost count of how many times I've had to restart the router because it's just slowed itself down to nothing. Do better ffs

  • shaldonangler Stuart Reynolds (@shaldonangler) reported from Shaldon, England

    If you have ever suffered a Broadband fault you will have some idea of the hell that is @TalkTalk customer service. A thread on how not to do things.

  • afrokid1982 Calvin Rowe (@afrokid1982) reported from Great and Little Preston, England

    @TalkTalk your customer service is well definitely not up to scratch 4 phone calls over two days for a mistake on your end just to be told tough it’s not our fault
