    As you were @OriginBroadband — problem seems to be with the SpeedSmart app on my iPhone. Crappy Zoom call quality could be someone else’s problem, too.

  • editfmah Adrian Herridge (@editfmah) reported

    @CraftyOldGit @OriginBroadband You can then see if you are getting 1000's of unrecoverable errors causing it to be slow. Or if you are on a really really old ADSL connection (like I was at Longleat), then I kept getting locked into a very low BRAS profile and it would stay at 1-2 MBs for weeks and slowly climb

  • HELENSTATHAM2 HELEN STATHAM 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HELENSTATHAM2) reported

    @OriginBroadband internet gone crazy last few days. Globe light in router going off then red. Devices say there is WiFi but not connected. Turned off and on, not the solution! Any suggestions?

  • Rob_Clark Rob Clark (@Rob_Clark) reported

    @OriginBroadband so no 24/7 technical support number any more so have to report issues on twitter - not been able to connect in DE65 line sync looks ok so issue looks further upstream

  • RichardHesketh1 Richard Hesketh ☯️⚛☮️ #CancelRoyalty (@RichardHesketh1) reported

    @KiltedTxn I thought I had. @OriginBroadband I'll try again. Why does my Wireless Calling keep dropping out? It's never stable.

  • Ragg_Mann John smith (@Ragg_Mann) reported

    @OriginBroadband this is the worst broadband company in the uk they are robbers

  • GrahamMarley Graham Marley (@GrahamMarley) reported

    @OriginBroadband absolute rip off merchants. Having charged my daughter over £200 in 2020 for broadband that NEVER worked you have just made her pay £40 on a contract she doesn't have. You ignore correspondence and refused to deal with me despite having authority. BEWARE

  • editfmah Adrian Herridge (@editfmah) reported

    @CraftyOldGit @OriginBroadband No problems. Also, it';s good to know that the filter is very very tolerant of electrical events so when doing the dance with technical support teams, it's hardly ever going to be a filter failure.

  • rachelgmarks Sir Rachel Marks (@rachelgmarks) reported

    @MsEmmaChaplin @Plusnet I'm with @OriginBroadband - very few issues and good service when setting up (real humans!). Strong signal on all floors (including attic room) and in courtyard garden. No need for separate phone line which appealed to me.

  • MrWayneThompson Wayne Thompson (@MrWayneThompson) reported

    @OriginBroadband is an absolute joke. Customer services are insulting & some workers clearly dont do jobs correctly. I've never had this problem with any other companies as they listen. I take care of all my moms bills due to her age & deafness. She gives consent yet you don't
