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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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!!

    @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

  • AndrewAbbey CODED1982 (@AndrewAbbey) reported

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

  • 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.
