  • HJMandleberg Helena Mandleberg (@HJMandleberg) reported from Redditch, England

    @OriginBroadband I’ve only been a customer for a week and am already seriously unimpressed. I have no broadband a week after ‘installation’ and can’t even access my account to check the status of my order. Really, really poor. I’d appreciate some contact ASAP please.

    @junententh @OriginBroadband Did you resolve this issue regarding Xbox one double Nat as getting this and it is nothing within our end so something Origin or MS have done?

  • badwolfjane jane elledge (@badwolfjane) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @junententh @OriginBroadband Ah ok. Don’t want to swap provider as no problem with Origin other than this. Might have found a way using port forwarding on the router - fingers crossed

  • CMaton1 C. Maton (@CMaton1) reported

    @OriginBroadband When my mother eventually got through to origin broadband support, their first idea was to perform a router hard reset, problem is my mum had upgraded from shitty single band router which then deletes the net login settings, removing her access to her internet

    @OriginBroadband @OriginBroadban1 I don't know why it drops in and out so much. It's at its worst with the BBC iPlayer for some reason.

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

    @TrickerTheDon @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband before they almost went bust in 2018 they were running a call centre with no more than 20 customer service agents at any one time and 1 sometimes 2 tech guys, they slashed the workforce by half to cut costs. So how many people do you think they have answering the phones now ? ?

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

    @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband the company boasts a customer base of over 400,000 users, but has only 2 permanent tech support staff, with 2 more helping when the are not making tea or sweeping up ... that alone should tell you something.

    @OriginBroadband any advice I can give to my elderly parents who have been left without internet access for the past week by yourselves despite having been told it would be resolved in 24hrs? Also promised a new router which has never arrived.

  • Dickinson1994 Anna Dickinson (@Dickinson1994) reported

    @OriginBroadband your service is shocking I don’t have a constant connection the speed isn’t what I was told what I’d get and customer service barely exist.

    @OriginBroadband No broadband currently in CM23 3NQ. Service in recent months becoming increasingly unreliable. Time for a change I think.
