“The worst experience ever. I’m a customer of origin electricity and they offered me their broadband with a discount. I wasn’t planning to change my provider however the manager on the phone was convincing. It was the worst decision ever. The cooling off period expires before the modem is sent to you. Once the modem arrived and it was connected my internet was gone. It hasn’t been working since then. I was calling their technical support every day and was on the phone for hours. They were doing the same troubleshooting over and over again. Even send a technician that didn’t find any problems. But the service wasn’t working. We tried my old modem but it wasn’t working and they suggested that it’s not compatible. Also they suggested that I need to call a local technician to check my connections inside the house that I need to pay for. However, all my connections were working perfectly fine before I plugged their modem. This whole situation continued for 8 days. 8 days no internet, lots of time on the phone! I canceled my agreement and signed with a different provider and ‘what a miracle’ I had internet using my old modem and old connections in 1,5 hours. Now origin wants me to pay 300$ for early termination fee for the service that I didn’t get. Don’t use origin broadband!”

“STAY AWAY FROM ORIGIN BROADBAND! Misleading information to get you signup. Various delays to get the service going. Seriously lack technical expertise. Blamed previous provider and NBN. Finally changed ISP after 15 days with no luck!”

“Please avoid this so called broadband company my experience with this Shower has been awful. signal keeps dropping out. (had better dial up!) talked to technical dept five times before possible solution. (still not revolved.) customer services that go around and around in circles, hopping you will give up. when they finally admitted that there was a fault on the line, they said they would only refund the down time for repairing it as opposed to the five months that i have been complaining of the poor service, which incidentally was caused by a faulty line and not the position of the Router/Router settings as they kept trying to tell me. once again please avoid, i would hate for them to mug anyone else off.”

“Avoid at all cost! I'm paying for 30+mb broadband and I'm actually getting 6 on a good day. I understand we are in troubled times but customer service in dreadful and I'm stuck on a contract until February.”

“This is the 4th review I wrote due to origin not liking what I'm saying about their company because the truth hurts . Avoid at all cost . No Internet for over 46 days no help or compensation..... that had the cheek to say if I wanted to cancel to go elsewhere they was demanding over £300 . In the end spent a total of 9 days ringing them 16emails and over 30 hour on live chat for them not to fix the issue and still on going . Now seeking legal advice. Avoid at all cost or just throw your money down the drain now”

“Incredibly over charged for a useless service. Complaints process hasn't even been fully finalised. Received an invoice for over $500 for a service that is useless because staff refused to listen. This is after an email had been received stating to pay only $150. 4 hours on the phone to tech staff and no result in connection and tech attending on site and still no connection. This was at least 8 days from the day of original order. Extremely dissatisfied and strongly considering changing energy companies after 20 years with the one provider.”

“Excellent service. Had a little problem when i started with them, but that was sorted straight away. I am now in my second year and i doubt I'll be moving. I like the no frills approach, what you sign up for is what you pay, no hidden extras. All i can say is THANK YOU to origin.”

“Switched from Plusnet, everything going fine after a month and much cheaper for basically the exact same service. I was paying £38.99 with Plusnet for line rental and fibre unlimited. Switched over to Origin Broadband and getting the EXACT same speed for only £26.99 (which also includes line rental). There was a very small glitch at first but I used Origins text chat system and the fault (disconnections) was quickly fixed and we were back online within about an hour. I was compelled to leave a review here as it's pretty much a no brainer to switch, why pay more for the exact same connection with a different provider?”
