    @DavidMeyler @HullCityStats @HullCity I remember Wally from when I worked the players lounge and some of the other bars at the KCOM. Never got to have many conversations with him, but he was always so courteous and polite, seems like a really tip bloke.

  • knockerdibb Mark Peacock 🎗🇬🇧 (@knockerdibb) reported

    @Uzzell01 Well, the mid week ‘rest’ doesn’t seem to be the advantage some predicted. Nevertheless, it was primarily abysmal finishing and poor decision making, that cost us 2 points today. It sounds contradictory, given our position, but, it’s been an ongoing problem at the Kcom all season

  • sci_twit 👁SCI👁 (@sci_twit) reported

    <SCI>watch ~ KCOM are monitoring their broadband service.

  • JasonRead9 Jason Stevens-Read (@JasonRead9) reported

    @NicolajayneLaws @KCOMhome @bbcburnsy Eventually, I asked some time ago if you worked for KCOM and you failed to respond, I suggest you block me as I will be raising a complaint based on screenshots of this conversation

  • hcafckarl Karl (@hcafckarl) reported

  • Advanced_Alarms Advanced_Alarms (@Advanced_Alarms) reported

    doesn’t do bank holidays or Sundays, apologies to our customers who had a limited response to emails set over the weekend as we as currently using a router & 4g dongle from the IT junk pile. Hopefully #kcom will resolve the issue & get us connected again 2/2

  • TigerTubePlayer TigerTube 🎗 (@TigerTubePlayer) reported

    @ShackHull My bad, I should’ve specified KC/KCOM matches...

  • antiquestwins Martin Sansom (@antiquestwins) reported

    Been living ag my parents' house for the past couple of weeks and using their @Virgin broadband to work remotely. I haven't used Virgin before and never realised it was this sh*t - it almost makes Kcom look reliable.

  • VictorMeldrew17 geoff (@VictorMeldrew17) reported

    @JasonRead9 @KCOMhome @bbcburnsy Moved from Beverley where Kcom broadband cost me £42 per month, moved to Leicester had Sky broadband at £28 pm. Kcom are running an illegal monopoly in Hull area and having everybody’s pants down. #shameful

  • hull_libraries Hull Libraries (@hull_libraries) reported

    @ysomendez Hello, yes this is a problem we have had intermittently since this morning. It is a KCom issue and they are working on it. Our apologies.

  • AndrewAbbey CODED1982 (@AndrewAbbey) reported

    @_KCHome Connection to the internet is continually dropping out. Are there issues currently?

  • 2elee2e Lee2e (@2elee2e) reported

    @IPsychooI yeh im gonna ring 1st thing in morning, i think its my router the 5g light is on but the 5g network doesnt show on any of my devices, the 2.4 one is what ive been using, im paying 45 bar a month for it aswell, yeah if you look up kcom internet mate you will see how shite it is

  • Goolie6 Goolie (@Goolie6) reported

    The dustcart couldn't get down our street today. Kcom have barriers up so dustcart couldn't navigate round them. Mmmmm wondering now if a fire engine could get through or an ambulance. You couldn't make this up. #Goole

  • Fanoftrechorboy ♡░SuiSaiFan༄༄♡🐝 (@Fanoftrechorboy) reported

    @selftherapyUK Mate all wifi is ****. Luckily i got that kcom daft ****, so i get like 12 ping a game. STILL GET SPEED UP LAG THO

  • lloydyyyyj Lloyd Jackson (@lloydyyyyj) reported

    @SkintDad @bt_uk @KCOMhome People seem to have either no issues, or no end of issues with KCOM. Ours was good at first but over time it has slowed significantly, and that’s a similar experience to most of my friends and family.

  • bazdjcooper Baz Cooper (@bazdjcooper) reported

    There have been some teams that have come to the KCOM this season and given it a real go, have made life difficult for #hcafc. Northampton Town the worst by some distance, rolled over and offered their bellies for a rampant tickling.

  • pastystone julie coates (@pastystone) reported

    @KCOMcare No service and been cut off three times now... got down to position 6 from 19! Is Kcom intranet down 🥲

  • adrianludlam Adrian Ludlam (@adrianludlam) reported

    @EmmaHardyMP @KCOMhome @Hull_Trains On this I disagree! Kcom's monopoly here for households means that the value they offer can be poor compared to the rest of East Yorkshire. BT gave me much more 20 miles away & now Kcom themselves offer much more as well outside the hessle area!!

  • BattleScarredUK Jon (@BattleScarredUK) reported

    @Niki44 @Skyhelp KCOM are as bad.

  • BrickYmY Brick (@BrickYmY) reported

    @Aromaa__ If I get this job I’m down, get us on the KCOM up at Hull

  • adamknives 𝕬𝖉𝖆𝖒 𝕸𝖎𝖙𝖈𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑 (@adamknives) reported

    The hole in the ground for kcom is patched, it's almost ready and holy **** I NEED THIS FIBRE so sick of dogshit connection

  • jawsofdeathdjn angryman3 (@jawsofdeathdjn) reported

    @JWhittlesElbow @althurstonsport Even in the premier league, the atmosphere at the kcom has never got close to a city v scunny derby at BP.

  • antiquestwins Martin Sansom (@antiquestwins) reported

    Quick turn it offme: I wanna preload no mans sky on just my home because of kcom outage.

  • GrahamCannon Graham Cannon 🎗️ (@GrahamCannon) reported

    @pchapman24 @HullCity Worked ok for me but @Uzzell01 had to go onto 4g - could it be a KCOM issue?

  • Goolie6 Goolie (@Goolie6) reported

    Well it's brown bin day tommorow be interesting to see if cart can get down street it couldn't last week for green bin. Kcom creating caos. #Goole

  • mattyantz Matthew Anthony (@mattyantz) reported

    @fishface58 @KCOMhome Are you using the kcom supplied equipment? If so that’ll be the problem

  • NicolajayneLaws Nicola jayne Lawson (@NicolajayneLaws) reported

    @JasonRead9 @KCOMhome @bbcburnsy Yes I work for KCOM Jason I wouldn’t have a problem letting anyone know that. I haven’t trolled you at any point. I’ve provided you with facts and figures and an alternate view to your own.
