OFF AS MUCH AS ITS ON. CONSTANT ONGOIGN PROBLEMS STILL 18 MONTHS DOWN THE LINE AND ITS ALWAYS THE SAME PROBLEM - THE EXCHANGE. BUT TALK TALK CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND WE ARE TALK TALK'S CUSTOMER (NOT BT'S) PAYING THEM FOR THE SERVICE WE ARE NOT GETTING
Talk talk are an absolute joke and their customer service and any contact is ALL via DELHI INDIA. Regardless of what speed they say you're going to get, all you'll have is constant ongoing problems they cannot be bothered to contact BT engineers to fix.
Its now OVER 12 months and they STILL can't resolve all the problems they have caused us. Continue to blame wiring etc at the home (which is just an excuse because BT Engineers have wired it all up) and all confirmed themselves the problem is at the BT Exchange in padiham and NOTHING to do with the home. Yet talk talk just like to keep fobbing people off because they can't even understand half the english you are communicating to them via DELHI
NOT to mention changing our telephone number over to SKY for 4 days without even knowing about any of it (I discovered this)
THEN numerous times including recently NO TELEPHONE OR INTERNET FOR 5 DAYS (SAME BACK IN FEBRUARY) - THERE IS JUST NO EXCUSE FOR THIS
The best way anyone can know what kind of service they are going to get (should anything go wrong) is find a direct contact EMAIL for them and see what happens. I tried this before joining SKY recently and well all I can say about them is its the same if you have ANY problems (they don't want to know and even managed to cock everything up once we'd paid and signed up with them) EVEN before the live date with them they managed to cancel it when it was paid for for 12 months
So if any internet provider PASS the direct communication contact beforehand, its always a good sign BEFORE signing up. Its been fail proof so far
needless to say we WILL be changing over again
don't forget to go via topcashback for a good saving with any internet provider !!!
the connection has just gone off AGAIN before posting this message. I have constantly sent hundreds of emails and speed test over the last 18 months and they don't care and never solve the problem which is STILL on going
If you are looking to pay for a service you are NOT going to get half the time then perhaps talk talk is for you !!

THE WORST PROVIDER!!!
this is the worst experience I've ever had! from the first day of setting up the service we had issue with the speed.
They are not able to give us the speed we agreed in the contract! not even half of that!!!
it's been three moths and just send us engineers every month but they are not able to resolve the problem!
their customer service is awful. they are not professional, not caring! they are just waisting your time if you call them. I feel they are waisting the time by sending engineers after engineers until our contract ends.
I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT DO NOT GO AHEAD WITH THIS PROVIDER UNLESS YOU WANT TO WAIST YOUR MONEY AND WAITS YOUR TIME!!

I terminated the contract with TALKTALK in June 2018. To be honest, I began to regret about it. My life with a new provider has become boring. During the last 4 months the Internet has never shut down. I miss so much the time when I was a customer of Talktalk, when every day several times I had the Internet disconnected, I endlessly overloaded the modem, called and wrote to Talktalk, spent many hours in chat. But Talktalk did not leave me, today, 4 months after the termination of the contract, Talktalk sent me a bill, I again owe them money. Moreover, without informing me, they independently activated Direct Debit and took my money. Phenomenal.

Stay away of this company, everything they promise is lies.
The broadband they advertising is not unlimited, when you watch few more videos on YouTube, they slow down you speed to minimum, or stopping the internet access for few hours or sometime for whole days.on the end i wanted to cancel my account,its impossible to cancel your account, as when i trying to contact them, and they hear i want to cancel my account, they just hang on the phone, or make me to wait on the chat system 30-40 minutes without success, and on the end i should stop my direct debit.
After canceling the account they still send me huge bill to pay, so read reviews before purchasing talktalk services,you won't save money with them, and you will get big troubles.
Stay away, stay away

Talk talk broadband+customer service+engineers are absolutely RUBBISH! You have to buy a package then they can find out whether it's working for your flat or not!! After 55 minutes talking with customer service on my credit they said we need to send an engineer! It took 12 days for them to send an engineer because all slots were full and they don't do after 6pm. Was happy when engineer knocked my door... Before testing anything or asking any questions he said problem should be from BT! Carried out a 2 minute test and said we'll arrange a BT engineer to come and check the line! It's now 8 days passed with no news!!!!! You better off pay more money to go with other broadband providers to get better quality and service!

Moved house in October and started service from TalkTalk broadband from day one it never worked TV buffered WhatsApp was totally unusable had to turn Wi-Fi off my phone and use data. Talking to the customer service was worse than useless it was a complete wind up took a month to get through to somebody in Manchester who actually did what they said they would and terminated our contract we were given the runaround put through to technical services on no account ever agree to be put through to these people as they are in South Africa the line is in audible and they just keep you hanging on an empty line the online chat seems helpful but when you end it nothing is followed up and no notes put on your account so next time you call you are back to square one again eventually we got rid of these people and have now gone with a proper broadband company

This isn't a very good network, can't play Roblox on my iPad, so I recommend switching to Virgin Media, and it disconnects and it's slow

The most useless customer service I have ever experienced, they hang up on you without resolving anything or pass you from one person to another and you have to start all over again. Disgusted, at lest I can see from the reviews here I am far from alone.

I would never recommend.
I would never recommend.
Given an activation date for a house move that could logistically never happen (wasn't told this at time) in order to get me to stay with them, given a new better price for the package (still being billed for the old price 2x as much!), informed by them that I have an unstable connection leading to a download speed of 10mbps (AWFUL!) but then they won't arrange for an engineer to come and solve it unless it is at my cost. Won't upgrade my router despite apparently being a faster fibre customer. Can't get help, can't even get a connection most of the time. Call centre isn't based in England so noone actually understands your problem. Raised a complaint to the CEOs office and was told I'd get a response - never did. This company DO NOT care about customers. Give your money to someone else. ANYONE else would be better.

The 3rd of sept I got home and the wifi and computer stopped working. So I called Talk Talk to try to solve the problem but they couldn't. I got an engineer appointment for the 23 so I need to be home otherwise I will be charged £20 surprise !!no one appears. I Called them and the person I spoke to could hardly speak English and when I said I want to cancel I got an English person who want me to book another engineer appointment for 3 weeks time I was so angry.
He told me that if an engineer didn't come before the 4 oct I can cancel my contract. Talk talk did not call me back regarding the repair. That was almost a month without having the Internet which is unacceptable.So I called on the 4th to cancel my contract with them, which I was advised by Talk Talk that I was entitled to do. To my surprise I need to pay for breaking my contract with no compensation for the month I had been with no internet or tv. thanks talk talk for the good 8 years of your service but when a problem occures talktalk is the worse. They are unhelpful , unsympathetic and unreliable. In this day and age that level of service from a company is unacceptable.

I switched to Talk Talk because the package they offered me sounded good, however once activated, I was then told by their support people in India no static IP address was available, (not what the sales person told me!) the broadband speed was also slow and then trying to get my broadband back was only accomplished with lots of help from BT, thanks BT....forget Talk Talk!

Avoid this company at all cost !!!!! I paid my bill late in January and February as my husband was not working. I paid the late fee which was £12 a month. I have been up to date with my bills since but on the 1st of may I got a debt company letter saying I owed money. I checked back through my bills and contacted talk talk who stated I don’t owe any Money. Talk talk said that the debt company thing will be removed from my records and will take 7 days . This never happened so I called they put me in touch with a manager who apologised and said will keep me updated and will call me 3 days later . 3 days later happened and guess what they didn’t call ! I had to call to find out what was going on to be told it was being rescheduled for the next day . The next day happened and yet again nothing from talk talk . I called to find out what was going on and to ask why i haven’t received any calls from them …….. they’re response as always “don’t worry’ . I called on day 8 as the debt thing was still on my account and then got told it was a error and it’s going to the back office to be dealt with and will take 3 days. Today is day 4 I contacted them again today to find out it’s still not been sorted! I completely give up with this company. I have been lied to so many times spoken to rude customer advisors. I don’t see why is so hard to just do what you say

Reporting a problem to a Manila call centre is a joke. They are unprofessional and do not know what they are talking about. Afire the called complaining about extremely slow fibre broadband, could not connect to Netflix either. Speed tests where carried out and it was agreed that I was not even getting half the speed promised. I was told that the router will be adjusted from Manila and that I should switch off for half hour and then turn back on. Asked if problem persists, she said to call back to arrange for an engineer. Called back as it was still not working, guess what, had to go through the same thing again and no engineer booked as I gave to carry out three ping tests over a period of three days......To be continued

Absolutely disgusting.
I ordered the internet with talktalk since the end of april, and i've never had the internet.
countless phone calls, huge phone bills because the housephone doesnt work also.
theyve booked technichians to come who havent bothered to show up but yet they tell me if im not here for them they'll charge me £60 odd.
ive been asking them via facebook to ring me for the past week and half, they have said they cant ring me. LOL.
ive paid my bill even when i havent had the internet i think their disgusting. i'm fuming.
If it isnt sorted soon i'm cancelling my direct debit.

An appalling service who choose to prioritise their money flow over their customers. Over the course of the past two months I have been charged a gargantuan £40 each month compared to the usual £8 and when I enquired about this via their telephone service they simply dodge the question and go as long as possible to retain their undeserved money and don't even look at the problem from the customer's perspective. Considering that I have been a customer for years I am absolutely appalled by how they treated me and their attempt to combat the problem by saying they'll give me a small tiny fraction back only highlights this ridiculous company, their shambolic customer service and their total ignorance of customer loyalty. I will be parting service from the buffoons and transfer to another service provider because to be quite frankly honest I have no idea how I have lasted this long with garbage company.

Avoid!! Worst customer service I have ever received.
Had no Internet for 5 days + and no closer to resolving the issue despite wasting almost 7 hours chasing up customer services.
Been messed around, given conflicting information, cut off when being passed between departments meaning that I have sat in the same phone queue multiple times to try and speak to someone.
Was told to wait in for an engineer, no engineer turned up, I am not confident that an appointment was ever made. After 7 hours of ringing up/using the chat feature to try to resolve the issue, nothing at all seems to have been done to actually resolve it.
Staff are unhelpful and condescending. They are not given adequate training to actually identify or resolve issues and note taking / communication withing talktalk and between talktalk and openreach appears to be non-existent.
After 5 days of having the same conversation over and over with no resolution, being messed around and told incorrect information, wasting mobile data, being unable to work from home and having to commute to work during a snowstorm, the only compensation offered was £15.75 off my next bill. Awful service. Will never use this company again.

8 months of internet problems, 6 engineers requested 4 actually came out and still not fixed, 8 months of phones calls empty promises, not sending equipment, the latest 2 engineers not turning up, still charging full price for a crap service, not even being offered reduced rate until fixed. Owed 8 months of compensation going elsewhere for a reliable service!!!
