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

  @OriginBroadband you sent me an email full of bluster telling me to login and check out the "great offers" for my renewal, but when I login there is nothing.

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

  @OriginBroadband no internet for 48 hours now thanks guys... no rush to get paying customers online again. Guess I'll have to wait another 48 hours just for an engineer to line test the master socket then lead me back to customer services..

  @OriginBroadband looking at the latest reviews I still see a third of Origin broadband customers still receiving outdated equipment with a completely broken down customer service.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

  @OriginBroadband I know it's a bank holiday, but surely someone is available to help? No internet for 2 days now. Yesterday's fixes you gave didn't help.

  Just spoke to my provider @OriginBroadband - conversation went like this. “My connection is **** and unstable”. Origin, “so… would you be willing to pay us more?” wtf kinda service is this where they have THE AUDACITY to ask you invest *more* into a product that sucks ***?

  @editfmah @OriginBroadband Well the problem I was having turns out not to be with Origin. On my iPhone, the SpeedSmart app reports < 5Mbps, the same app on my iPad reports > 35Mbps. Problem lies with phone by the look of it. Mystifying. Will investigate that face plate idea, thanks.
