    @Soley1904 @JoePalmerUK @hullcityretro Remember him marking hazard at kcom and he never let him by all game, very on it that day

  • dinkyrach Rach (@dinkyrach) reported

    @zigzagtoes @Tosh_ag @MikeeP1981 Kcom itself has primary and secondary dns. You actually miss out on locally cached content by not using Kcom’s dns for your resolution.

  • lilminx1966 sue york (wright) (@lilminx1966) reported

    @KCOMhome Hope we are getting a refund for the outage I pay nearly 70 pound a month and had no internet for 8 hours so far not good enough @kcom

    @KCOMhome Rubbish service in HU12 for a few days now. Come on KCom we pay through the nose for your broadband at least make it work properly.

  • mrfavus Rach "Favus" Smith" 🏳️‍⚧️🦒 (@mrfavus) reported

    @KCOMhome I contacted my work IT dept and they confirmed it was a routing problem with Kcom

  • kevbez1969 Kev (@kevbez1969) reported

    @leemelonopie @KCOMhome I know a few who've been on it and they all said the same thing. It's good at times but too inconsistent. Lots of major slow down at peak times. 3 of them have gone back to kcom the others are still stuck in a contract but moving back when they can.

  • Mihu_Nowak Mihu Nowak (@Mihu_Nowak) reported

    @KCOMhome Really??? No duh, current KCOM service it’s in 99.3% so ******🤮🤕I'm curious if I’m able to apply to a tribunal🤔

  • lukebed79 Luke Bedford (@lukebed79) reported

    @ExileAryui @KCOMhome The monopoly has broken. With MS3 network cables now laid or being laid around Hull and East riding there is another 7 choices of fibre providers in the area. Im leaving kcom next month to go in a better package which is £20 per month cheaper

  • SpectatorEmma Emma.Watching.History🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@SpectatorEmma) reported

    @SkyNews BT telephone boxes are red. Hull & the surrounding area are not served by BT. Phone boxes in Hull and the surrounding area are cream with service provided by KCOM Group Ltd.

  • AlterAdam89 Adam 🐯 🌿 (@AlterAdam89) reported

    @lilminx1966 @KCOMhome @Kcom Contract states 14 days without service and you will be compensated.

  • JellyTotPixel D🅰️z (@JellyTotPixel) reported

    @JackBon60290058 @jordantyson92 kcom its been realy bad today heard it could take 48 hours to fix

  • DawsonsLeftPeg Error404 (@DawsonsLeftPeg) reported

    @jordantyson92 @_kirst99 Everyone switching to tethering their phones for data with KCOM being down is strangling the networks. Spoke with a Three rep via DM massive spike in demand.

  • paulharper75 Paul Harper 🐯🏃‍♂️💙💜 (@paulharper75) reported

    @RP2218 @Tesco Yeah, I was assuming it was a KCOM issue. Good that someone paid for you though. 👏

  • Gareth416 Gareth smith (@Gareth416) reported

    @KCOMhome Terrible service from KCOM, one of the most expensive providers in the Country and we are stuck with them in Hull. I bet we won't even be compensated for this mess, been off all day now and it's regularly dropping out.

  • TomButl55445942 Tom Butler.🇹🇷The Bransholme Tiger 🐯🇹🇷 (@TomButl55445942) reported

    @KCOMhome kcom say sorry for the inconvenience of the internet problems today ten hours without any internet and they say sorry

  • SupernovaPhil88 Phil Bagwell (@SupernovaPhil88) reported

    God help KCOM, Internet is about to go down ten fold in HU3, 4, 5 and 6

  • GaryYorkshire Gary Yorkshire (@GaryYorkshire) reported

    @JPAzure @MrCowper Alternative means … go on, like what? Move house to an area with BT coverage? Ring up Elon and get some Starlink? I’m all ears. It’s not the fact that KCOM systems go down, it’s the long fix times. We’re hearing ‘hopefully by Tuesday’.

  • KCOMhome KCOM (@KCOMhome) reported

    A KCOM spokesperson, said: “We apologise for the service disruption earlier today that affected customers across Hull and parts of East Yorkshire. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to fix the problem and everything should be returning to normal now.

  • danjsansam Dan (@danjsansam) reported

    Kcom going down again early???

  • MelJBroo Mel Brooker 🐝 (@MelJBroo) reported

    @HowardGant9 @EE @SkyUK Look at Sky when you can. I cant knock them at all. I got Oakley a phone and the deal they provided me with was amazing. When KCOM was off Sunday, EE was shocking for a signal. Sky had 5G and was so quick!

  • Recordings24 24 Karat Recordings (@Recordings24) reported

    @KCOMcare im leaving KCOM Can't message you. "unable to send" and customer service sucks. Speeds are awful and I pay for 400mb down. Lucky to get 200. I'm out of contract and wont be renewing

  • BurnbyPaula Paula Burnby (@BurnbyPaula) reported

    @KCOMhome Why do you need to access my account to explain what the additional £3 is being used for unless I sign up for 2 years with a service that at best is mediocre? Surely you aren’t that inept you can’t give a reason behind the different charges? #avoidingthequestion #kcom
