  • AmyBullContent Amy Bull (@AmyBullContent) reported

    Sometimes I feel like I'm having a bad day, then I remember I don't work for @OriginBroadband's social team. Then I remember I'm a customer.

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

    @OriginBroadban1 @OriginBroadband this is so true, you would go back to the customer with "Sorry, the cheque must have got lost in the post" excuse and they knew it was an outright lie, you might as well have just said "I promise I won't come in your mouth or get any in your hair"

  • _fadgie_ Chris McFadyen (@_fadgie_) reported

    @RealKiro @OriginBroadband Worst provider of any service ive experienced

  • MrTClayts Tom Clayton (@MrTClayts) reported

    @JackTheL4d @abbeylinegold @OriginBroadband P.P.S. I'm also not aware of the full circumstances that's led to you having to cancel but if its borne out of your university going remote at the 11th hour then I'd look into your university t's and c's regarding consequential loss etc.

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

    @RealKiro @_fadgie_ @OriginBroadband Expecting people to pay extra to make the service work properly ... Absolute charlatans ...

  • DerekWe51929279 Derek Weeks (@DerekWe51929279) reported

    @OriginBroadband @Ofcom No point in messaging you directly. You don’t respond. How do you expect customers to have any confidence in Origin broadband when almost a third of your customers reviews are either poor or BAD.

  • __getinthebin Will Jones (@__getinthebin) reported

    @AmyBullContent @OriginBroadband I was. I complained and they let me out of contract early. A combination of being BS’d by tech support, in-contract price rises, technical issues and them ignoring my complaints for months at a time

  • mccali99 mc california (@mccali99) reported

    @OriginBroadband This offer has now been withdrawn along with any previous offers made.   What happens next?   We have closed your complaint and you will be issued with an ADR letter electronically by email in the next 14 days, which will confirm this and can be used as evidence

  • LT_laytont11 LT (@LT_laytont11) reported

    @georgiesucks @virginmedia @OriginBroadband Yeahhh but these guys like to argue or be smart and cocky to customers so its **** either way

  • DerekWe51929279 Derek Weeks (@DerekWe51929279) reported

    @OriginBroadband You have no idea how I feel. Being scammed is not funny. Origin really out to learn how to practice proper Customer service and deal with issues in a timely and professional manner.

  • cumberlandbrown Cumberland Brown (@cumberlandbrown) reported

    @OriginBroadband After 30 mins waiting for a reply on support chat.... can you help pls? Yet again, my "static" IP has been changed, locking me out of vital systems.

  • India_Mckenzie India McKenzie (@India_Mckenzie) reported

    @OriginBroadband My internet connection speed is constantly running slow or dropping out. I’ve had several problems with this over the last few months. I should be getting at least 30 Mbps but I’m only getting 7/8 Mbps and it says the server is in Dublin? I am based near a London

  • MaverickCS5 Maverick (@MaverickCS5) reported

    @OriginBroadband Hi Origin, Im having problems connecting a Nintendo Switch to the broadband. Connects just fine but when trying to play online, it says NAT type D, wondering how to change this? I believe the router is double NAT'd and requires a static IP. Was not aware of this

  • __getinthebin Will Jones (@__getinthebin) reported

    @AmyBullContent @OriginBroadband If they legit said that to you I’m unsurprised. One of their tech support told me that DSL filters expire after 3-6 months and that changing my DNS servers could affect a ping or trace route result. My secret weapon was being a complete tech nerd

  • MrTClayts Tom Clayton (@MrTClayts) reported

    @JackTheL4d @abbeylinegold @OriginBroadband I wasn't referring to the 5400 page document. It will have been right next to the price when you signed up. It's not really the fault of the service provider. If its as a result of Covid then can't you apply for a grant and/or support from the Govt or University?
