  .@OriginBroadband are staffed with quite possibly the worst people I’ve ever come across. Almost every message received from them was obtuse, provoking, repetitive and irrelevant, leading to a money claim and many crossed words. Worst service I’ve had from a company I’m not with.

  @OriginBroadband why are you tweeting me threatening penalty charges for exiting my contract early? You also emailed me saying I could leave without penalty because you breached your contract with me! It took over 6 months for you to admit you were wrong & have appalling service!

  @OriginBroadband is there a technical problem in the Midlands specifically Studley Warwickshire. My router looks normal but there’s no internet connection.

  So when you "move house" as a @OriginBroadband customer they treat you as a new customer, give you a new customer reference, leave the old account intact and put you on a new contract. WTF can't they just tie the new supply address to the existing account and contract?

  @OriginBroadband I will continue to exercise my right to comment on the abysmal way you treat customers who have issues with your company.

  Well @OriginBroadband please do in contact with me ASAP as my static IP which I pay for has changed again and the info your tech support gave me contradicts this. He then put the phone down on me when I said so! #nothappy

  @OriginBroadband looking at the latest reviews I still see a third of Origin broadband customers still receiving outdated equipment with a completely broken down customer service. How long can you survive?

  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.
