“after initial broadband issues,i was put through to 3 different people,my broadband isnt what it is meant to be(not getting the proper speed) eventually was put onto a lovely young girl called Alisha on fibre optics home,she could not have been more helpful,and noticed that my broadband was fb35 instead of fb65,so after everyone missing the problem,it takes a girl in fibre optics to notice that my broadband had been capped(that is to say capped at 35mb instean of 65mb,i dont know what talk talk are paying their so called experts,but this young girl went beyond her station to help a poor pensioner like me,i had previously been on the laptop for over 2hrs speaking to their so called experts,i was sent through to her by mistake,and she found the problem Alisha from Manchester i do hope you see this message,you are a Star!!! and what ever talk talk are paying you it,whatever it is its not enough,thank you from a very happy pensioner.please talktalk inform this girl that i have put this review on. thank you sammy mcphail.”

“I had to end my TalkTalk contract early due to moving home. The experience of doing so was appalling. I have spent approximately 7 to 8 hours on the phone and online chat to TalkTalk in order to accomplish this. I was passed from department to department to complete different parts of the process. They have made errors then charged me fees for this, which I have then had to challenge. Multiple times I have been reassured that everything had been settled only to receive another bill with additional charges added. Ironically all the while I have been receiving calls form the retentions department asking me to stay! This is the worst customer service experience I have had in years. TalkTalk should be ashamed of themselves and potential customers should steer clear.”

“What an absolute joke of a company. Have been using their service for 13 months and I have had at least 19 issues with them where my connectivity was lacking. With working from home, having internet is quite important. Have spoken to their awful customer service multiple times and they give me the exact same dumb questions over and over again. 1 week ago I was given a new router (because that was obviously going to resolve everything) and not surprisingly I have already had issues twice. FIX THIS... Im stuck on a contract with you, and I will take action to void the contract if you dont solve this issue immediately.”

“Worse Internet and TV provider ever. Been charged for an engineer that came out when I was informed I wouldn't be so now have to wait 48 hours while they investigate. On top of that they want me to buy a booster (£85) so my devices will connect to the WiFi. Roll on March 2023 as I won't be renewing my contract.”

“I have had no internet for 14 days and now waiting for a router for 10 days - and then they tried to charge me £30 For the router that was deemed by their engineer not to work! They have commissioned Yodel to deliver the router - and yodel keep Saying “it’s with driver” for 10 days! Now I have offered to pick the router up from yodel In belshill a mere 10 Miles away - and I can’t do this but the driver can keep leaving it in the depot. Now talk talk purchase these courier service and cannot use anyone else apparently - they have now ordered a 2nd router - put through the same courier - it Defies logic - I would Have been quicker getting another provider -”

“When the broadband and routers are working, service is great. The router they supply is excellent and I get good connections in my average household. I have 3 contracts and have had issues with all of them. The issue comes if you have problems. Live chat is a waste of time, don't bother with it you will waste hours of your life. I spoke to a man called Thando who could not remember or understand much of what I wrote. I spent an hour with him on live chat to be finally directed to a Talktalk support website which I had used before I even spoke to him - I told him I had done all of the things already but he just made up some story about how it would be different this time. It wasn't. The only way to get things sorted in my experience is to use their community boards where they have staff and members of the public who are actually aware of issues and are able to book engineers, suggest solutions or send replacement routers out. So why have a live chat service at all? On the boards there are multiple reports of live chat being dire so scrap it TalkTalk - or staff it with people who have some ability to troubleshoot, and where their comprehension of English (particularly technical English) is better. My issues have been -difficulty getting an engineer booked for a fault on my phone line -less than half of the guaranteed speed for 6 weeks -router DNS issues (a firmware update for this has been promised for many months) -delayed go live date and waiting for auto-compensation I like the router that is supplied and the community boards are excellent. But getting issues resolved takes too long and live chat function is one of the worst i have ever experienced”

“Sold TalkTalk, Open Reach installed my Broadband, Phone and TV on the 9th July. The following week we had a downpour, out went the Broadband, over 9 hours passed ''we are working on the fault'' the following morning still not fixed, then it's time for the worst experience ever ''phoning customer services, only services should be removed and call it ''no help for customers'' first rep after no idea how long cut me off, I rang them back, time to work through the script again, I had enough ''just get it fixed'' and I hung up this time. I go out this week and buy a TV, time to connect, no this don't work, TalkTalk box not adding channels, rang customer services, first rep cut me off, rang back 3/4 qtrs. of a hour listening to some lady reading the script again, question after question, do this, try this, look I said it is not working arrange for a technician to visit me, I just have to ask you, no, no, no just stop, stop reading your script, tell what time is the visit, I repeated this over and over, what time, at last it registered, tomorrow between 3pm -to- 6pm, great bye. This morning I receive a text, technician absent, looking to arrange another technician to call, I left a message on voice mail at the number given in the message, don't bother calling, I have had enough. Called Virgin and I'm having them install next week. DON'T EVER AGREE TO HAVE TALKTALK, they are useless.”

“Attempted two phones calls in the cooling off period to cancel. Now going through a complaint process because both times they hung up and didn't leave any notes. Wanted to cancel because their service is slow and patchy (it crashes if there are multiple devices on) but now want to cancel and avoid because of their customer service.”

“After having a very poor experience trying to sign up with talk talk I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt. Big mistake. I have been with them for 6 days and not had internet for 5 of those days. Tech team are utterly useless and have been waiting for 3 days for a manager to call me. If I call in to chase this up both the tech and customer service team refuse to deal with it as they believe it’s not their problem so the only thing I can do now is leave bad reviews in as many places as possible in the hope someone who can deal with both teams will have the decency to contact me.”

“Customer service is absolutely awful. Will have you connected for a couple weeks at a time but then something always goes wrong and connection stops every half an hour if even. They will then send out an engineer who won't ever fix the problem but will assure you it is fixed. Another 3 or 4 engineers will come out and you will be forever waiting on the problem to be fixed, then for a couple weeks it could be all better and inevitably vicious cycle goes again. DO NOT GO WITH TALK TALK”
