  • MartinTwigs68 Les (@MartinTwigs68) reported

    Kcom broadband has gone down, I ring up and it tells me I'm 172 inline and should use their web page. How f**king ironic

  • Cardinal_Malt Adam (@Cardinal_Malt) reported

    @ciaran296 @KCOMhome I know it might be hard to believe (especially after today's outage) when I say this, but as someone who has lived outside of hull, kcom lightstream is actually more reliable and stable then some of the providers of had elsewhere

  • davy_lad Dave Evans (@davy_lad) reported

    @leemelonopie @KCOMhome It's not our equipment, it is kcom not supplying the service we are paying for

  • kingswood_tiger Paul 🇬🇧🇪🇸🇹🇷 (@kingswood_tiger) reported

    @MelJBroo @KCOMhome Not even a tweet from them acknowledging the issues, loads of hull having issues 🤬 #kcom

  • itisalex_ Robbo ▪️🔸🇬🇧🇹🇷 (@itisalex_) reported

    @KCOMhome Internet is down for those Hull citizens wondering 💩 #KCOM

  • sophgamess soph (@sophgamess) reported

    I just wanted to play battlefield 1 all day and my internet is still down🫠 ****** Kcom surprise surprise

  • HullMichelle75 MotherOfFestiveDragons 🐝👩🏼‍🎓🇪🇺🦖 (@HullMichelle75) reported

    @JanPurling Oh Jan 😔 Hope you feel better soon. Someone tweeted about KCOM earlier and said it’s going to be down a couple of days 😯 x

  • JonKirby1974 Jon Kirby (@JonKirby1974) reported

    How much of hull is affected by the kcom being down?

  • KCOMhome KCOM (@KCOMhome) reported

    A KCOM spokesperson, said: “We are aware of a network issue that is affecting customers in parts of Hull and Beverley. Our engineers are working work hard to fix the issue and we will give further updates when we have more information.

  • jongibbins Jeanflambé 🇪🇺 (@jongibbins) reported

    Evidently KCOM are having issues today. Therefore all internet access is down. Home and also businesses. I can't even buy milk from the Co-op as they are also affected. Maybe having a monopoly over such a large area isn't such a good idea after all ...

  • leemelonopie lee opie (@leemelonopie) reported

    Is @KCOMhome fixing the problem today?? #kcom down for over 2hrs now! Do we get a refund for all the outages #hull

  • alanacct Alan Hemingway (@alanacct) reported

    @INDEPENDENT_MG @littlearfer You would have thought they could have come to some agreement to share the underground space. KCOM seem very bad at not facilitating help to other suppliers

  • Craucoes ItsJustJosh (@Craucoes) reported

    @RomeoOscarEcho @declang05 KCOM are a bad company but one of thee best providers in the UK they’re one of limited company’s that provide Full Fibre across the UK. Issue is staff and management there are shocking and don’t care for customers. When I worked there we had 13 mins to take a call or loose pay :/

  • LeighJane19 vVSoull (@LeighJane19) reported

    @KCOMhome That's all u ever say kcom " working hard to fix it" 6 hours later joke

  • mrhuggy MrHuggy (@mrhuggy) reported

    @KCLightstream @KCOMhome Is there any issues with the network as the internet connection is down for me here in Bilton.

  • davidhoggard64 David Hoggard (@davidhoggard64) reported

    So it would appear I’m not the only one with internet connectivity issues in Hull #kcom #internet #hull

  • MikeeP1981 Michael (@MikeeP1981) reported

    Don’t realise how much doesn’t work these days when internet goes down Ring doorbell Sky Q Streaming Alexa Lights and Plugs Heating Not ideal when #Disabled and rely on it …. Been over 4 hours #Kcom

  • EnfieldTiger James Lockwood (@EnfieldTiger) reported

    @lucyk512 To get the data to your local mast, the mobile networks will use a line to the mast. In the rest of the country there's a choice of providers. In Hull there's KCom. So if it's a core problem with KCom, that probably explains the reason

  • ExileAryui Daniel Rose (@ExileAryui) reported

    @JonKirby1974 The issue is in any other city it wouldn’t effect the entire infrastructure such as retail or hospitality but most companies are forced to use kcom and now they are no doubt losing custom and therefor money, it’s a sham… and needs addressing.

  • BenGardner44 Ben (@BenGardner44) reported

    You’re pathetic KCOM! Can’t pick up my sons prescription now because internet is down so if he gets worse it’s on you! @KCOMhome

  • jameskwiths James 🎗 (@jameskwiths) reported

    Its ridiculous that @KCOMcare @KCOMhome have not provided any updates and we are having to hear from people online that have rung them that it is expected to be down for a couple days. #KCOM

  • lanesrA1sauce lanesrA (@lanesrA1sauce) reported

    @Farris_Ull @KCOMhome Yea all the card Machines are down mate, everyone looses out except the monopoly wich is kcom as usual.

  • RazzaB3 Ryan Beeley (@RazzaB3) reported

    @KCOMhome is kcom down can't get online and same for some friends around east hull

  • RomeoOscarEcho Tony Roe P/F 🐯 (@RomeoOscarEcho) reported

    @PhilGraham19 Thanks Phil. We're going to leave this kcom shyte Internet service.

  • ebolad1 IAN_EBO_LAD (@ebolad1) reported

    @KCOMhome @kcom this months bill is on hold till you fix it we pay good money and yet we have no internet

  • Craucoes ItsJustJosh (@Craucoes) reported

    @JellyTotPixel @HullMichelle75 @JanPurling From my experience working with the engineering team across KCOM yes it can take upto two weeks they aren’t in no hurry the HU8 outage at the end of last year took that long but most only take 2-3 days

  • flibberdigibert bingbong (@flibberdigibert) reported

    @KCOM as large areas of Hull are without internet, at what point do consider your customers? Give us an update and likely timeframe. There are businesses and customers working from home. Don't treat us like crap cos we will walk.

  • reece_broom Reece broom 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@reece_broom) reported

    @sophgamess 🤤 my fav game of all time! i miss playing it so much. think i might have to download it again once kcom sort this **** out

  • Jakewoolford01 Jake woolford (@Jakewoolford01) reported

    @kcom might just be the worst Wifi provider ever
