  • GeorgieBoy61 George Ferry Takeaway Services Bell #FBPE #NHSLove (@GeorgieBoy61) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @PJBuckingham They outplayed us at the KCOM so it was entirely predictable given our "Not-up-not-down" mindset!

  • paulxdesign Paul Burley (@paulxdesign) reported from Manchester, England

    @ant_thedesigner That's a shame. It used to be the opposite problem: KCOM overpriced, the rest of the UK had caught up and the customers are left with no choice because of KCOM's monopoly as an ISP.

    @KCOMcare @KCOMhome another day, yet again Kcom Internet service is down. However, not according to their website. No online customer chat function. Help pages as useful as a chocolate fireguard. Terrible hold music. Maybe I'll get through this time 🤔

    KCOM Complaint. I see Im not on my own with my issues with KCOM. Ive escalated to Ofgem and, in the process, Ive found KCOM are not members of CISAS nor ISPA where customers can find resolution. Search the new providers in Hull! #checkyourKCbill @KCOMcare @KCOMhome @WhichUK

    @pdaantizio @halfironmum We're all EE in this house and the WiFi is KCOM. I don't know if it was Internet based or network based.

    @andreajenkyns Firstly, Hull is not in Lincolnshire. So it's not on your patch and is none of your business. Secondly, Hull has never had traditional red phone boxes, having its own independent phone company, KCom. They are cream.

  • ChrisJa53783666 Chris Jackson (@ChrisJa53783666) reported

    @KCOMcare For the second day running Kcom has been down a lot in HU7. Why?

  • Gazarelda Gazarelda (@Gazarelda) reported

    @official_seany @andreajenkyns You think KCom should fix potholes?

  • Andy_Ross1962 Andrew Ross (@Andy_Ross1962) reported

    @ReformDylan @andreajenkyns Apart from Hull never had red boxes, they were usually cream, KCOM was never part of the GPO or BT

  • FrankCa52742356 Frank Castle (@FrankCa52742356) reported

    @ToonDazza @andreajenkyns KCOM manages the phone network and most broadband internet services in the Hull area. It's a private company. Nothing to do with the Council.

    KCOM having another internet outage in #Hull. The service has been periodically unreliable recently.
