    @OriginBroadband As we couldn't come to a mutual agreement over how best to resolve your case, you now have the right to go to Ombudsman Services: Communications to take your complaint further if you wish. The Ombudsman’s role is to offer free, independent help to resolve your

  • ChilliDoor David Jennings (@ChilliDoor) reported

    @OriginBroadband Your direct debit system is faulty, your live chat is broken, no one answers calls and you've removed the option to pay outstanding invoices via your website. How am I meant to fix an issue when I can't get through to anyone?

  • mccali99 mc california (@mccali99) reported

    @OriginBroadband This offer has now been withdrawn along with any previous offers made.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

    @JackTheL4d @abbeylinegold @OriginBroadband I wasn't referring to the 5400 page document. It will have been right next to the price when you signed up. It's not really the fault of the service provider. If its as a result of Covid then can't you apply for a grant and/or support from the Govt or University?

  • JoshKard0 Josh Kard (@JoshKard0) reported

    @OriginBroadband I mean, get someone to pick up the phone or answer the chatbot? Also get someone to fix the phone option menu, so that you're actually able to select an option? Not sure what the social media team can do TBF

    @OriginBroadband @Ofcom No point in messaging you directly. You don’t respond. How do you expect customers to have any confidence in Origin broadband when almost a third of your customers reviews are either poor or BAD.

  • Schmell_DeCoffe Wake UP! and smell the Coffee (@Schmell_DeCoffe) reported

    @PerBetts @OriginBroadband After paying be sure to cancel any Direct Debit or Recurring Card Payment that Origin have set up (they usually set the RCP up without asking permission (naughty)). This will prevent them from taking money from your account when they have one of their frequent computer glitches.

    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 😭

  • Schmell_DeCoffe Wake UP! and smell the Coffee (@Schmell_DeCoffe) reported

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

  • Schmell_DeCoffe Wake UP! and smell the Coffee (@Schmell_DeCoffe) reported

    @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband this is so true, you would go back to the customer with "Sorry, the cheque must have got lost in the post" excuse and they knew it was an outright lie, you might as well have just said "I promise I won't come in your mouth or get any in your hair"
