  @JerryonTwidder @OriginBroadband Switch service providers, or you contact @OriginBroadband, the operative who takes your call sends a request to the NOC team, they send it back refused because the operative didn't fill a simple detail in, they submit it again, it gets refused again, repeat ad infinitum.

  @OriginBroadband This offer has now been withdrawn along with any previous offers made.   What happens next?   We have closed your complaint and you will be issued with an ADR letter electronically by email in the next 14 days, which will confirm this and can be used as evidence

  Stayed with @OriginBroadband in the new house because they’re great for service and you can take your own modem — would have killed for @virginmedia but alas that area is too rural 😭

  @SSE @OriginBroadband Hey, I know your broadband customers were "transitioned" to utility warehouse, but I'm trying to find our broadband credentials. Where are we supposed to go now to manage that service? I can't seem to login to Origin and anxiety makes me nervous to call you

  @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 Hi Origin, Im having problems connecting a Nintendo Switch to the broadband. Connects just fine but when trying to play online, it says NAT type D, wondering how to change this? I believe the router is double NAT'd and requires a static IP. Was not aware of this

  @RealKiro @_fadgie_ @OriginBroadband Expecting people to pay extra to make the service work properly ... Absolute charlatans ...

  @Rob46156436 @OriginBroadband 70,000 customers, WOW in the last quarter of 2018 they were slapping themselves on the back, bragging about hitting the 250,000 customer mark. That's an awful lot of people to lose in just 3 years, and a good indicator of how terrible they were, people were happy to pay to leave.
