  .@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.

  @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.

  @OriginBroadband Here’s another crude gimmick Origin broadband to entice people to join this disjointed excuse of an internet provider. Their equipment sucks and their customers service is non existent.

  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 ***?

  @OriginBroadband, had an email to tell me they are cancelling my service fixed IP address, I've one 1! I'd have thought that most people who order this do it for a reason! Time to move. Apparently dynamic provides all the benefits of a static without the cost - bullsh1t

  @OriginBroadband Do you no longer provide live chat on your website? My outage is ongoing and I’d appreciate a response

  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 Why can't I log into my account or get hold of customer support? I have been trying for weeks! Poor effort. I am Moving home and need to disconnect. Guess I will just cancel the direct debit instead!!!
