Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • IrishEye9 IrishEye🇨🇮☘️ (@IrishEye9) reported from Bradford, England

    @OriginBroadband 45 minutes on the phone : No answer. Email blocked. Live Chat not working. Swittched to Origin but now Land-line is dead so no Internet. Feckin Shambles.

  • ruth_elenaf R-Elena (@ruth_elenaf) reported from Bracknell, England

    Don't ever choose @OriginBroadband they never communicate anything to you. I've been waiting for over a month for broadband to be set up. @WeAreOpenreach keep canceling my set up & finding errors apparently. I'm promised dates for live internet then have to chase them. Awful!!!

  • Devotchka0183 Morag Malchick (@Devotchka0183) reported

    @xblackcatxx13 @OriginBroadband They're just crap. I used Martin Lewis's site and asked them to waive my termination fees because of poor service (which they did) and just get someone else. Good luck with the handover.

  • badwolfjane jane elledge (@badwolfjane) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @junententh @OriginBroadband Did you resolve this issue regarding Xbox one double Nat as getting this and it is nothing within our end so something Origin or MS have done?

  • Chromatic_Blue Chromatic Blue (@Chromatic_Blue) reported

    @cookiekinggame1 @GameboyLuke @OriginBroadband I've heard just as much bad things about Virgin to be fair.

  • Lunindi Christie O'Connor (@Lunindi) reported

    @OriginBroadband Hi, popped you a message. I was told you were aware of an issue.

  • EquinoxPhoenix John Alzayat (@EquinoxPhoenix) reported

    @GameboyLuke @OriginBroadband Time to cancel then, if they can't be asked to provide the service you are paying for they don't deserve your money. Or anyone's money for that matter.

  • Seneca73646304 Seneca (@Seneca73646304) reported from Paddington, England

    @OriginBroadband So how can I contact anybody in your support?

  • ColletteR 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦 𝘞 (@ColletteR) reported from York, England

    @OriginBroadband We're speaking to our 6th advisor now Katey. 4 hours+ and still not sorted. I'm losing confidence that you CAN help to be honest #OriginBroadband

  • Kazza_Cookie Karen (@Kazza_Cookie) reported

    @jon_newsome @OriginBroadband I tried that too,made no difference to mine,only started with the Origin broadband when had Sky had no issues

  • HJMandleberg Helena Mandleberg (@HJMandleberg) reported from Redditch, England

    @OriginBroadband I’ve only been a customer for a week and am already seriously unimpressed. I have no broadband a week after ‘installation’ and can’t even access my account to check the status of my order. Really, really poor. I’d appreciate some contact ASAP please.

  • AngieO968 Queue Jumper (@AngieO968) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Come on @OriginBroadband I have been trying to get tech support for the past 2 hours, online tech support is extremely slow and useless without proper diagnostics of problem. Am now in waiting loop for phone support. How long should I expect to be on hold?

  • Devotchka0183 Morag Malchick (@Devotchka0183) reported

    @topballak @OriginBroadband I asked them to waive my termination fees in light of poor service, which they did. I'd find someone else - Origin have been nothing but trouble. Report them to trading standards too (I have) so their rep gets about.

  • Devotchka0183 Morag Malchick (@Devotchka0183) reported

    @Agent47Connor @OriginBroadband I think they just give out a phone number that doesn't work because I had the same issue. Just ask them to waive your termination fees due to poor service and get someone else.

  • jon_newsome Jon Newsome (@jon_newsome) reported

    @OriginBroadband I am having issues downloading programmes with my SkyQ and have had a Sky engineer visit today. He has suggested that due to previous issues I require a static IP address to fix the issue....can you help with this please?

  • badwolfjane jane elledge (@badwolfjane) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @junententh @OriginBroadband Ah ok. Don’t want to swap provider as no problem with Origin other than this. Might have found a way using port forwarding on the router - fingers crossed

  • siempre_lana R-Elena (@siempre_lana) reported from Bracknell, England

    @tinwix @error_no_entity @OriginBroadband Yes I feel your pain. I have had problems after problems with them

  • JohnArm54295564 John Armstrong (@JohnArm54295564) reported

    @GameboyLuke @OriginBroadband Yeah heard you talk about it on Pat's stream they are on some **** I'd demand some kinda discount at this point just for their negligence

  • ColletteR 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦 𝘞 (@ColletteR) reported from York, England

    If you are serious about offering some help @OriginBroadband , I DM'd a telephone number a while ago and we are still waiting for your call. After today we are going elsewhere #originbroadband #CustomerService #broadband

  • CuriousMachine Jamie Salmon (@CuriousMachine) reported from Sheffield, England

    @OriginBroadband Internet appears to be down in S2 :(

  • LoganHMPG Logan (@LoganHMPG) reported

    @GameboyLuke @OriginBroadband My ping spikes from 30 to 150+ all night, and my connection cuts out 10+ times a day for over a year. Last week they called me and told me they don't see my problems on their end, and there's nothing they can do. Any ISP with "Broadband" in their name can go **** themselves lmao

  • Kazza_Cookie Karen (@Kazza_Cookie) reported

    @jon_newsome @OriginBroadband Does the Static IP work with this issue?been having this for months

  • GeorgeBrownless George Brownless #BLM (@GeorgeBrownless) reported

    @GameboyLuke @OriginBroadband Probably not the best answer but if they aren't playing ball, call them, tell them they've got 12 hours to give a solution or you'll go to Ofcom. BT were being arses for us last year and that terrified them when we played that card.

  • Devotchka0183 Morag Malchick (@Devotchka0183) reported

    @Lunindi @OriginBroadband Just leave them. Report the poor service and ask them to waive your termination and get another provider. I would encourage you to report them to trading standards too. Then their rep will be more well known.

  • vfachinetto Vinicius Fachinetto (@vfachinetto) reported from Poplar, England

    @OriginBroadband 30 minutes waiting on the line for technical support.... still waiting

  • siempre_lana R-Elena (@siempre_lana) reported from Bracknell, England

    No matter how good a deal it sounds, never try @OriginBroadband they are one of the worst companies I have ever dealt with! No idea of customer service and managers never get back to you! I have no internet, no job and supposed to have an interview this week over zoom....

  • ruth_elenaf R-Elena (@ruth_elenaf) reported from Bracknell, England

    Whatever you do, don't choose @OriginBroadband they never communicate anything to you. I've been waiting for over a month for broadband to be set up. @openreach keep canceling my set up & finding errors apparently. I'm promised dates for live internet then have to chase. Awful!!

  • GameboyLuke luke (@GameboyLuke) reported

    I've been waiting on a call from my ISP, @OriginBroadband for two days now and I finally got a call today, but it was from their promotions team to ask me about their special offers. WHILE I'M STILL WAITING FOR THEIR TECHNICAL TEAM TO CALL ME AND FIX MY SERVICE.

  • DanPickard3 Dan Pickard (@DanPickard3) reported from Corby, England

    @Matthew71582083 @bubblesismaname @OriginBroadband They asked for my account details in a PM an hour and a half ago...then silence! I have been trying to work from home for weeks with crap wifi

  • cookiekinggame1 Yuumi God (@cookiekinggame1) reported
