“I cannot begin to tell you how poor talk talk are. Had internet issues for weeks, nobody wants to help or support. Passed from twitter to live chat, now with the CEO office who are desperate to just ignore me still. Please take my advice and go nowhere near them, cheap internet means awful service and support. Really terrible outfit, go elsewhere.”

“The service had been working for a long time and then ipad and iPhone could not connect to the router or lost connection are a short time. Android could connect.. Very strange. We had been sent an upgraded router about a year ago and luckily kept the old one. Switched the router and everything worked. Logically the new router has developed a problem. Explained this on chat, 30 mins still no help so called support line and explained everything. 90 mins on the line and they then said we need to buy range extenders. We refused and they finally agreed to send a new router which solved the problem. 2 hours lost when we told them the problem from the start. Total rubbish support needs looking at urgently. Talktalk support is seriously not fit for purpose. If we had not had a spare router we would not have had the problem resolved and would only be able to restore Internet access by going to another provider.”

“I booked installation of new broadband to commence 2 days after moving home. They sent the router to my new home a day before I moved in with an text an hour before delivering said router saying it would arrive in two days. Essentially left on the doorstep. Not there when I moved in. A replacement router was ordered. Expected delivery date today. Not here and not coming. The earliest this will be resolved is Christmas Eve. Thirteen days later than originally booked. My complaint has been booted up to the CEO, after making two complaints within one week. Avoid this company at all costs!!”

“Although they are quick answering the phone there is a reason their wifi is so cheap. For the past month I have had issues with wifi. I have rang them when the wifi has been down over half an hour, but the wifi actually lags every day. After 3 calls and a month of waiting I ring to ask to exit without cancellation fees as I am paying for a service I am not getting, especially when I signed up for minimum speed guarantee, the only reason I went with talktalk. When they said that I couldn't exit without paying I asked for a refund, I'd spent about a total of about 5h on the phone to them in the past month, the only option they offered me was a 5 pound credit note. I am very unhappy with this service and would not recommend TalkTalk. In my previous flat I had BT and they were outstanding, the reason I couldn't continue with BT was because they couldn't provide the service I needed in my new location.”

“I set up a house move with talk talk. I was moving on the 6th they stopped my Wi-Fi in the 4th. Going live date was 6th. No welcome package and defo no wifi. I spent hours on the phone repeating myself over and over, getting passed from pillar to post. I phoned up and cancelled four days later. They will not clear the line till 8th of Jan as the order was in place. Iv went with Vodafone and have to pay £60 with Openreach to set up a new line as talk talk refuse to clear it. Please please stay away from this company. There customer service is atrocious. Vodafone have provided me with unlimited data on my phone until they can set up a new line. Unfortunately not till 30th dec. Iv recently lost my husband and can't handle this stress. It's been ridiculous.”

“DISGRACEFUL service... read below...from my experience, do NOT use TalkTalk if you are elderly!!!! My 88 year old father-in-law tried to contact Talk Talk to cancel his service due to moving house. He is very hard of hearing. I was with him to try to help, and the first person we spoke to had no patience at all... would not let me help (not with answers, but just saying the questions to him). They would not let us write in by post to cancel the service. I tried very nicely to work out how to achieve what we wanted. She CUT US off! We then got through a 2nd time, this time to the complaints department...even worse. I won't write a long article here, but we were lied to, we were not helped and the 2nd person did not help at all.... TalkTalk listen back to both calls, I suspect someone will be disciplined! I understand security has to be followed, but you gave a frail 88 year old man a very stressful time. Unfair and unpleasant. I was very pleasant and helpful on both calls and kept my cool! Listen back. Or yes, they promised a call back today...guess what, Talk Talk did not call back. Surprise! They had two numbers to reach me. I write very many good on-line reviews. In this case, the service from Talk Talk was a disgraceful. No empathy for helping elderly people, no support, no compromise to help the customer and to listen. So in conclusion, I will be recommending to family, friends and more...not to use Talk Talk for your phone and internet. Dr G Boxall.”

“I don't like to write bad reviews but today I have to. I have booked the engineer one month in advance and when he haven't came I call to customer service. So I was really surprised when I found out that this appointment was cancelled by engineer also as my account. Never recommend”

“My modem went off this morning, the power just cut out, luckily I had an old one from 7 years ago which I was told by talktalk was no good anymore. So I got online to talktalk and after 30 mins of chat going round and round I was told it would be £30 for a replacement. I'm not paying it. As usual poor service and lack of understanding by whichever country the chat are based.”

“This is not a communication service they came out 2 days ago installed this system in our home and was told it would automatically turn on at 7 pm that evening 14 hours of phone calls later still no phone or internet service I’ve decided to rip this useless equipment out any put it wear it belongs in our bin I’ve stopped the direct debit as I’ve tried to tell them that I want to cancel but they keep saying we can’t even though you got 14 days to cancel I wouldn’t give this company a single star but you have to to try to help other people out so they don’t go for this cheap and nasty option”

“Not very helpful I have Tiscali login and they told me that, from January 2020 I would no longer be able to access may emails, when I told them that this was not long enough for me to transfer all my folders and emails to another provider, they were not very understanding, I asked to speak to a manager but had no luck, they told me that I could access my emails if I either paid them £50 or sign a contract with TalkTalk. I have registered a complaint but don't expect a satisfactory result, after spending nearly an hour on the phone.”

“Terrible customer services they just waste you time, after being without internet service for a week they promised automatic compensation awaited 2 months no news, then decided to phone customer service again after being on the phone with them for 1 hour and 10 minutes was offered £6 what an insult, Time to get out. Still trying to get a proper compensation,”

“ZERO stars for TalkTalk customer service. I've been 'communicating' with them for over ten days now trying to get an Open Reach engineer to fix a line fault. Appalling service - lies, making it seem my fault, wanting to start from the beginning each call, saying an engineer called when one didn't, shouting on the phone, agent putting me on hold for 25 mins then cancelling the call. An exhausting process with no resolution yet. AVOID!!!”

“I don't want to put any stars. They are most certainly the worst service provider I have ever dealt with. STEER clear is my advice. Don't be tempted by their sales pitch of great offers, they may sound good but the service you get, speed, reliability, helpful customer service is not. Last word of advice AVOID”
