“**** DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THEM OR YOU'LL GET INTO TROUBLE **** My broadband speed with talktalk use to be fine and three years ago it started playing up by keep disconnecting and going slow, so I upgraded to a faster option and it was find for the first few months then gradually it started going down and produce faults so they said I need to upgrade again and since December 2019 it's been an awful experience. Broadband is keep getting disconnected and speed is low, I have opened up 100s of tickets/cases with their technical team, lots of engineers came from "Openreach" with their trainees and still none of them could fix the issue. Completely unprofessional service and engineers. I can't cancel my contract because they say I have to pay a penalty so I have to wait until my contract ends. I AM VERY MUCH DISAPPOINTED!!”

“DO NOT GO WITH TALKTALK!!! They are useless and charge you at every chance they get and for anything they can... even when they are inadequate in doing their job. I have never been treated this way by a company. They are a disgrace!”

“Like countless other Talk Talk Customers who were unfortunate enough to sign up to the unfathomably dreadful “service", I too received appalling broadband connection, below average broadband speeds (in my case 3.3mbps) and regular service disconnections. After contacting Talk Talk to discuss these issues I was presented with a replacement router that resolved exactly none of these issues. Talk Talk's broadband speeds really had a chance to show what they weren't capable of when two devices attempted to access the same WiFi network... Crash! However, it is Talk Talk's unashamedly abysmal customer service and shockingly rude employees that win this internet and phone provider the award for number one company to avoid at all costs. Counting down the days before I could finally break free from their torturous 12 month prison sentence, I attempted (on numerous occasions) to phone the company to inform them that I would like to switch providers................................................................ ................. .. Exactly that, the line went dead... At first I gave Talk Talk the benefit of the doubt and assumed that it was a bad connection (I mean it is Talk Talk we're dealing with here) so I called them again and lo and behold the same thing happened. Now, you know what they say about assuming things, right? Well, they certainly made an “Ass outa me"... I was hung up on six times before a “technical supervisor" would speak to me about leaving Talk Talk and even then they wouldn't actually discuss the “leaving" part. After barely audible, what I assume were “sales tactics" (or a desperate lover asking repeatedly “but why do you want to go?..."), I had managed to finally convince the “technical supervisor" that I no longer wanted to pay for a service which at best was barely provided. I was then asked to wait whilst I was to be connected to the cancellation department and after a reluctant ten minute wait I was greeted by the same advisor who then said “I will now put you through to the cancellation department". Guess what happened next........................................................................ Yep!! You guessed it, another disconnected call. Though instead of breaking my spirits Talk Talk had only made me more steadfast. I researched method after method to leaving this soul sucking corporation and of course, there is no easy way out... Sending a written letter to; TalkTalk Correspondence Dept. PO Box 675 Salford M5 0NL is a suggestion though if their telephone manner is anything to go by then I'm guessing that Talk Talk's letter box has an industrial sized shredder on the other side of it. The email address for Talk Talk; concerns@talktalkplc.com is, not surprisingly, a dedicated complaints address... Feel free to use it and tell Talk Talk exactly how you feel about their service and don't be shy... So yes, I had to pick up that phone again and delve once more, head first into the insane asylum that is the Talk Talk customer service “help" line. If only it was just “once more"... Long story short and after much more perseverance, I was finally speaking with a Talk Talk Technical Supervisor “Manager" (at least that's what I was told). She advised me to call back in two days to cancel otherwise I would incur an early exit fee. I kindly asked if she would put a note of our current conversation into their system so that when I called back in two days time I would not have to go through this recurring madness for the sixteenth time. She assured me not to worry and that all my requests will be logged and my next phone call to discuss cancellation will be simple and straightforward...... Now, do you think this was the case?... Well, that's a story for a different day... SPOILER ALERT!! It was basically Groundhog Day the movie if Groundhog Day had been based on a never ending circle of phone calls to Talk Talk requesting to cancel their service and then them hanging up. I implore anyone who has even fleetingly considering signing their hard ‘earned over' to Talk Talk's money pit pockets to deeply reconsider. You will NOT get a fluid service and you will NOT be able to cancel their service without severe difficulty and countless hours of stress and endless perseverance. No, No, No!!! Just don't do it!!! Not even if they are ridiculously cheap or offering cashback!! THEY ARE A DISGUSTINGLY POOR PHONE LINE & BROADBAND PROVIDER!! THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS!! THEY CARE ONLY FOR MONEY, THEIR OWN GAIN & PROFIT!! THEY WILL SIGN YOU UP, BILL YOU & NEVER LET YOU GO!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED... Had Dante endured the ultimate displeasure of even three minutes dealing with a Talk Talk Technical Supervisor the “Inferno" poem he penned hundreds of years ago would certainly depict a far worse hell. Abandon hope all ye who enter into a contract with Talk Talk. You have been given more than fair warning...”

“Avoid Talk Talk worse customer service experience I have had with any supplier and still seem to get a feeling it is my fault when I talk to them on the phone. When I firsts started with talk talk it was fine but we moved home this is where the ongoing issue started. I decided to negated 1 weeks of wifi to make sure we were up and running in the new home ASAP. So actually got engineer booked the day of the move great, he turned up 3rd party and connected me or so I believed various message saying job complete I be up and running shortly. 24 hours come and goes and nothing no message so I contact them and to cut a long story short 2 weeks of phone calls various different stories that it will be up and running in 4 days to 4 weeks. No communication and then suddenly a message your wifi is up and running after 2 weeks. To date for my 2 weeks of phone calls and lack of wifi I get a £25 payment which doesn't even cover the cost of additional mobile data used. Ask for a letter of apology which I received yesterday 2 lines of writing no review or what had happened or feedback. AVOID go elsewhere”

“Absolutely the worst company I have ever dealt with. Shocking customer service and they truly could not care less. Tried to join and they cancelled my activation date 3 times without telling me. It was only when I would call to chase it up that they would let me know and then claim 'technical difficulties'. They have never been able to tell me what these technical difficulties are. At this point I have been without internet and a phone line for 2 weeks and I am now looking at another 2 weeks before I get anywhere. I run a business from home and this has cost me hundreds of pounds. I am beyond disgusted.”

“Awful service. Have now been without email for 8 days and still no sign that this is to be rectified. Kept being told that there will be 72 hours before a technician will contact me. Now told after second 72 hours that it may be 5 days!! Remonstrated severely so that I now have to wait by the phone for the next 5 hours for a possible call. Noted that the company is keeping up to its record as being the worst isp provider. No complaint about the agent in Manilla, he did his best”

“Absolutely appalling service - Took over a week, and numerous phone calls, emails and messages to secure a router. Company was slow to respond to queries and information provided misleading and inaccurate. Lodged a complaint and Talktalk expected me to ring them to resolve it! Deeply regret having chosen them.”

“My broadband speed reduced without reason and l couldnt do anything . I contacted talk money grabbing department and they told me theyvhad detected a problem. They said they could fix it straight away. They said l needed to upgrade to fibrevand tried to force a 18month contract on me. I asked several times what the problem was and all l wanted was the download speed l wanted. They refused to tell me the problem. I kept at them and things got heated...heated as a direct cirumstance caused by them! I told them l was contacting the ombusman and taking complaint all the way. Then they said ok...lets now try and find whats wrong with your speed!!!!???? I asked why did you not do that in first place like you said you did,l never got answer! In short and to sum up..they attempted to forceca contract upon me by faking a problem!!! I never let it rest and demanded answers...l got none. And AMAZINGLY enough a few hours later my broadband was working as it did when it was put in! I have no time for liars or foreign contact centres forcing people to part with hard earned money and they get a bonus for doing it! Big shame on you talk talk...or liar liar. I left it now with ombusman. Dont use talk talk!”

“What a joke they are. You get 18mbits for the first 6 months as they promised, then they reduce your speed by 1mbit every month until you're down to 10mbits. When you call, they claim that it's the router, or the dsl filter or solar flares causing the speed drop, total lies. So after 3 hours talking to them over 3 weeks, they finally said sending out a new router would "solve the issue". So the new router arrived and bingo the speed is back to 16mbits...but oh...here's the thing - it's also back up to 16mbits with the old router too. so they blamed the router and then quietly changed a server setting to give me back the 6 mbits they had taken away. Nefarious methods indeed!”
