    @OriginBroadband From Ofcom. “Solar flares interfere with communications” I see that Ofcom have given you another perfect excuse (for poor service)to give to your weary suffering customers. At anytime of the year.

    @OriginBroadband can you advise how I stop my contract as I'm moving house? I can't find anything on the website or customer portal. Only stuff about moving it to my new address.

    @OriginBroadband You have no idea how I feel. Being scammed is not funny. Origin really out to learn how to practice proper Customer service and deal with issues in a timely and professional manner.

    If you ever think about signing up to @OriginBroadband don't. They have completely taken advantage of 2 vulnerable people in their 70's, refuse to let them cancel despite an awful service. Waiting for my complaint to be answered since Feb. Now cut their services off. Awful 🤬

    @OriginBroadband I have not been your customer for over a year, yet in the last week you have emailed me multiple times about picking my new deal. Your emails have no unsubscribe option, remove me from your database.

    @OriginBroadband I know it's a bank holiday, but surely someone is available to help? No internet for 2 days now. Yesterday's fixes you gave didn't help.

    @modredcastleton @OriginBroadband You should use this as a reference for an event in the game. When you interact with it it could say, "Someone did a horrible job with this. I could do better blindfolded." You know. As a funny callback for your Twitter followers. Or something.

    @OriginBroadband I have cancelled my account (C0069251) in early October. You stopped sending me bills but did not cancel my direct debit and keep charging me for a service you are not providing.

  • JerryonTwidder

    This is how good @OriginBroadband are at customer service: several times (including over the phone) I have asked them to stop sending me bills for £0.00. This company not only has a useless IT system that sends out such stupid emails but poorly trained staff who take no notice.
