    @OriginBroadband I spoke with Gareth in your retentions department last week. Just wanted to let you know he did a fantastic job. Most helpful customer service experience I can remember. I called to cancel but ended up on an 18 month deal. Very happy customer!

    ‘Easy to use service that gives you everything you expect’ - evidently not. What’s more frustrating is that as a teacher the internet is more essential to me than ever. I am currently at a 50% higher risk contracting COVID as I am unable to work from home @OriginBroadband - help

  • davidjbodman David Bodman (@davidjbodman) reported

    @OriginBroadband @OriginBroadban1 Material detriment A1.10 Ofcom is likely to treat any price increase4 to the agreed core subscription price (however constructed and described in the contract terms)5 during the fixed term of a telecommunications contract as a modification

  • Minimem8 Minimem8 (@Minimem8) reported

    @OriginBroadband I have spent over an hour and a half online with "support", they say I cannot cancel my contract before June otherwise, I will have to pay penalties. Why not answer here why you feel you can ignore the guidelines I've linked to? Or are Origin going to reverse this policy?

  • leeahrebekahh Leah (@leeahrebekahh) reported

    @OriginBroadband absolutely disgraceful customer services, especially amidst a global pandemic when vulnerable people who are shielding are rely heavily on their internet and phone lines for their safety and well-being. Avoid them at all costs they are awful.

    @georgiesucks @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband Is there nobody who can take a look into this company and why they cannot give a proper fibre broadband service like the others?

  • alderleywizards Parker (@alderleywizards) reported

    @Leonard41791029 @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband Yes.. u try and leave and they charge you 816 quid. Not 1 days Internet 3 months.. They are the worst of the lot

  • georgiesucks Georgie (@georgiesucks) reported

    @_fadgie_ @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband Trying to charge me £1.50 a month because their internet won’t connect properly to my Nintendo switch?? How is that legal? It’s THEIR issue I shouldn’t have to pay for it

  • tobybrxl Toby #FBPE (@tobybrxl) reported

    @davidjbodman @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband I've sent a complaint asking them to explain how they're exempt from both their contractual obligations, and regulatory requirements. As their ombudsman definitely IS regulated by ofcom. Looking forward to their answer

  • Davidta66476689 David tait (@Davidta66476689) reported

    @OriginBroadban1 @Mero46008244 @OriginBroadband Promised all this speed and I should switch to them, worst broadband I’ve ever had and still waiting for a call back.
