This company is appalling I was on the phone for over 1.5 hours today and they could not help me! Finally I spoke to a manager who then put me in touch with a boy who was his second day at work! I was ringing on behalf of my elderly parents as their broadband speed was 9 Mbps! They were paying £50 per month for this atrocious service! Have left to go to sky today!
Don’t waste your money, all the minions have no idea what they are doing!

Customer service bad. I try move my broadband to new address I filled form online that I move in on 25 march and I want activ my internet on 29 march looks really simply but not for you. On 30 march I received email that I cancelled my broadband. After 45min with your ussules customer service 4 departments your really smart manager told me that you try sort everything 2 weeks before I move in at new house and of course old tenants they don't need new broadband because they leaving simple. Still to difficult for your team solution I can order again but I must wait another 2 weeks brilliant. I was always happy with your broadband but after today I cancelled my contract and I sort everything from different supplier is take 5min online and they send my starter pack in next 2days simple. Customer service disquasting and ussules.

We switched to talk talk from BT after we were told lies from the sales rep, her manager and the guy who set up our account. As a result we were charge early termination fees from BT (£141) when we were assured we wouldn't. I called Talk Talk several times and each time it took ages for someone to answer. Each time they were apologetic but said that someone would call me back but no one ever did. Today it's installation day. The engineer simply did not turn up. We have no Internet and I'm working from home so you can imagine the nightmare. We're tried to contact them via the chat but got absolutely nowhere. Now trying to call but still waiting 45 min later! I used to be with Talk Talk years ago and it was a good company. They became horrendous and dishonest since. Do believe the bad reviews or you'll be like me : sorry and with no broadband.

Shocking customer service have tried to ring on 3 separate occasions and have been on hold for over 30 minutes each time. I've booked 3 days of work for a fibre upgrade and no ones turned up and I can't speak to anyone to find out what's going on. Absolutely shocking there cheap for a reason will never use them again.

Shocking service when you try to cancel with Talk Talk at the end of contract. First they don't offer a good deal when you give them the opportunity then they don't act on the original cancellation despite you saying the contract will end anyway. When you receive another bill for the next month and call them again to confirm that they have actually acted on previous instructions they then offer you a so called better deal - not!! You then have to be transferred to cancellations who then say it will take another 7 days and you have to listen to a long script read out by the operator of the T's and C's - but they try again to offer you a better deal!! Too late - you had the opportunity weeks ago when I first made it known that I want to cancel!! Only for Talk Talk to phone again days later saying that they don't to lose a customer and proceed to offer you yet another good deal!! Talk Talk - if you want to keep your customers you need to offer the deal at the time of the original cancellation and not keep trying to shut the stable door after the horse has bolted!! Offer a decent deal at the start and we can avoid all the aggravation of customer service operator spouting stuff off a script and then having to repeat ourselves on subsequent calls and having to endure further harrassing calls offering so called better deals. No wonder Talk Talk has a bad reputation!!

DO NOT USE THESE CLOWNS!!!!
They will NOT terminate your contract once it is up and you have given your months notice. They will then put negative markers on your credit score over and over again for £18.99 that they should never have tried collecting. They will then LIE and say you did not terminate, and once you prove you did, they ignore you. DO NOT USE!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!

Warning, you will be harassed! I left talk talk in Jan, and I am still getting 4 phone calls a week! We had no broadband for 4 months whilst my partner worked from home and i was a student, you can't get through to anyone on the phone, when you do get through, they're rude, unhelpful and frankly useless. Save yourself a heart attack, go elsewhere!

The e-mail with the bills I created was successful, but after re-entering the password and logging in, he writes that the wrong password is the third time this happens, they want to trick people to send paper bills home and charge a fee and every year there is an increase. is awful

Ordered Fiber 500 about 6 weeks ago. Installed on 8th March, no router delivered until 24th of March after numerous phone calls and hours of my time wasted. Router delivered was not the Eero that should come with my package and did not work. I still have no working broadband service 2 and a half weeks after install. Worst customer service I have ever had and I have signed up to a service they can’t provide. Don’t waste your time with TalkTalk fiber go with another provider I wish I had.

To be honest. Any company that you go with is going to have issues . I've had talk talk for about 4 years and only had one problem. I might be lucky but I will say when I had my problem it was on a weekend. They really need a 7 days a week customer service line

Customer service is an absolute shambles. The worst experience I have had on the phone with any company, by a mile. And it’s the same every time. Get a British person on the phone who understands us for crying out loud.

Absolute terrible customer service, bad broadband. Every bad name under the sun can be used to describe Talk Talk. If there was an option to give 0 stars then I would. Call them and when I get to number 1, they disconnect the call & are showing attitude and disrespect to the customers. Horrible service.

This company is an absolute joke!
Out of the blue comes a letter stating "Final Demand - Account balance of £43.58" for a person deceased nearly two years ago and TalkTalk were notified at the time and no balance was owing, just a small credit.
Now they are demand money, there has been no previous letters, but now a final demand. So I try to contact them on the number provided in the letter, I spend two hours, YES TWO HOURS been passed around to various departments, bearevement teams, managers, no one can confirm or acknowledge this letter or share information with me even though I am the Executor of the Estate and have the letter in my posession.
This company is a joke, I am trying to pay them money and even that is near impossible, I would hate to be trying to get help from this company as its nothing short of a joke.
Maybe I will just let them pass this to the debt collection agency as maybe those guys will actually be easier to deal with and have a customer service team who can actually provide help and take payment.
TalkTalk you are NOTHING SHORT OF A JOKE AND DISGRACE!

SIMPLY AVOID!
If you enjoy your peace of mind. Since i changed over to fibre, their internet is a nightmare. It is almost 2months and they still trying to determine what the issue is. Internet keeps dropping. Very unreliable. Speeds are 2.3Mbps but they advertise 500Mbps.Worse than the previous broadband connection. Been on phone calls for more that 10hrs past 2weeks and still nothing. You will be transferred over and over and put on hold for every question you ask. On complaining the agents just keep insisting the internet speeds cannot be guaranteed over wireless connection. Twice i have spoken with very rude agents, the lady (Louise) was raising her voice and speaking over me throughout the call. I simply concluded by saying lets not take it personally it's just internet. Changing my provider ASAP

Absolute shambles ...appalling customer service from staff l could not understand,mis information, hopeless product knowledge, hanging on the phone for over one hour while they went away to discuss my problem.
The only plus point was the engineer who called, he was a diamond.

Ordered business broadband and got an email soon after saying the order is in a state of rejection due porting issues on the line. Also received a telephone call regarding this issue and asked them to just leave it and cancel the order. They did not cancel the order and kept on trying to take over the line from my current provider. So decided to give them a call today and first person I spoke with transferred me to another department where I was on hold for about 35 mins and when someone finally answered he kept putting me on hold after asking for bits of information name, address etc etc. Total hold 1 hrs 16 mins and he tells me he cannot do anything because the details don't match. All I wanted to do was to check if the order had been cancelled successfully and if not to cancel the order. Never going with talk talk ever again. I have TV and broadband at home which I will be cancelling now. This company is not recommended at all.

Won't recommend it to my worst enemy
fro starts, the broadband itself often failed to meet its minimum Mbps. The contract is coming to an end, so I called the number provided on their website for cancelations (03451720088) but it connected me to the 'retention department'. They are obviously trained to make it as hard as possible for a customer to cancel their account, and probably lose out on financial incentives if the account is cancelled. They don't listen or speak to the customer in a professional manner at all and they don't cancel your account even when they said they would.
It took me 5 phone calls, 3 and a half hours over two days to finally get an email from a manager confirming the cancelation.

Connection cutouts every day. Being told I need to upgrade my package to get a stable internet. Being circled around for half an hour on the phone after asking to speak to management. Being told I'll be contacted by management multiple times and yet 3 days have passed with no call.
2 Years ago I would have recommended this company to anyone, but now I would recommend people stay well away.

Worst one i had since i was born. Less than 1GB upload and download, sometimes can't even watch videos on youtube which shows how hilarious this (thing) is. I rang customer service many times, 2-3 engineer was in my house, removed all the issues and it was fine for 2-3 weeks and same thing again and when i ring them and tell them that i want engineer they just talk rubbish that isn't even helping. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

If I could give 0 stars for for some categories I would - 1 is definitely on the generous side.
My advice would be to avoid at all cost. There are always better options than this company.

***Overcharging for Unused Services***
I called TalkTalk on 22 Jan to inform I do not wish to renew my contract when it ends on 24 Feb. Spoke to the Retention Team giving more than 30 days notice. I assume they will do what is necessary on their end. I returned the router and TV box on 24 Feb via post and kept the receipt as a proof. However the Team did not process the cancellation. In the first week of March, I found out that TalkTalk continues to bill me for broadband services until 3-Apr. The Retention team checked its phone record s and discovered the non- processing though notice was indeed given on 22-Feb. It proceeds to end my service on 13-Mar. I am no longer using its service since all hardware has been returned. It insists I should pay the outstanding charges. I AM NOT LIABLE FOR YOUR RETENTION TEAM’S NOT CANCELLING MY ACCOUNT AFTER GIVING 32 DAYS” NOTICE.

I endured 18 months of dodgy connection, poor speeds and horrendous customer service. At the end of the contract agreed to switch to PlusNet. TalkTalk phoned a week later, said they'd offer me an unbeatable deal and did, and also said they'd contact PlusNet to cancel my application for me (The rep's name was Adam), and all seemed well. I plugged in the new router I received and had very fast internet for one day, the day following i was cut off. Apparently no one had contacted PlusNet to cancel the application, so i spent 4 hours on the phone to 5 different reps, until the last one who actually helped and said that i needed to call PlusNet to cancel the application. I proceeded to do that, although that took over an hour too. Phoned Talktalk back afterwards and confirmed the "cease" had been enacted. They then proceeded to tell me that they couldn't connect to the line so i'd have to run a new application and they weren't sure when i'd get internet back up and running at home. Now, in the grand scheme of things at the moment, this is very minor. But it still warrants a 1 star review as they should be providing a service and not false promises.

Got a phone call this morning from a talktalk salesman who set me up with a broadband package but after reading the reviews decided to cancel(should have read them first) I was on the phone for an hour and 15 mins and did not get through. I had to use a mobile and the call cost over £40. When I did get through they said they were closed so I have sent them an email. How can you cancel an order if they dont reply? Not sure if they will email me back so beware of this company.

Very poor broadband. Incredibly awful customer service. They lie on their FAQ regarding switching provider, lie on the phone about same. Unhelpful. Difficult to cancel. Not great broadband, often going down at random ties.

Worst broadband and worst customer service. Broadband connection and internet was patchy throughout my time. Due to their worst customer service I had to continue with patchy internet and worst connection. None of their agents know what is the process and you will be transferred to various department who have nothing do with your issue. I was out through to fully fibre team for cancellation and after 1hr in the call had to disconnect and call back to know that their fully fibre team have left home 15mins before. The best part is I called them the next day to be answered by a rude agent from fully fibre team who did not want to listen to a word on what I was saying and transferred me back to the cancellation team again after 15mins wait I disconnected and called them back to let them know I did not want to renew my contract. How silly was I to think cancelling your contract after it ends will be a straight forward request. Never will I ever recommend or join Talk Talk in near future. Don’t be fooled by their offers and deals you will regret it later.

This company is absolutely the worst. Do not under any circumstances use them. The customer service is non-existent. I spent 90 minutes on the phone with them before they would agree to send an engineer to the my mother’s house and this is when my mum is on a priority list due to numerous medical conditions. The engineer did not entirely fix the problem and said we needed another engineer to come out and he would arrange another appointment. After 3.5 weeks without hearing from them I am on the phone again trying to get another engineer - 50 minutes and counting. They do not have supervisors you can talk to and the call centre staff in India don’t have the authority to do anything to help. Stay well away from Talk Talk

Leave well alone as the customer service in South Africa (yes you do get transfered to South Africa) is useless.
Spent hours on the phone to customer service to try and get an answer as to why an engineer failed to attend my address at the stated time to install a master socket and set up the broadband.Eventually after being made to feel like I was banging my head against a brick wall and stating that this needed to be completed with a matter of urgency another installation date was given 3 days after the initial install date. The service is very unprofessional and certainly leaves a lot to be desired.
