TalkTalk Reviews

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.

A fortnight after Joining TalkTalk, and at least 20 hours on the phone I still did not have a working internet or access to my account. I had two visits from open reach both informing me the line was in tip top condition, and that the signal to noise ratio was badly wrong, in other word TalkTalk were restricting my internet, I even listened to one of the engineers telling them this.
I had no choice but to leave as I had no usable internet and it was unlikely they would resolve the problems caused by them. Over the last couple of months they have started demanding money for cancelling and moving to a supplier that instantly gave me internet. Now they are going to send this “dept” to a dept collector and were keen to tell me this would seriously affect my credit rating.
TallTalk are an evil company who will go to any lengths to make money and have no concern for the way they treat their customers, you have been warned!

What a bunch of crooks.

Internet contract was signed 15 August for set-up 21 August. Hub arrived timely but was not working. Spending hours and hours on the phone with TalkTalk, they decided to send me a new hub. Set up the new tool - again not working. Again spent hours and hours on the phone. Decided then to cancel all as TalkTalk has never been able to set up an internet connection. Cancelation was done by phone, SMS, Chat and letter. The two internet boxes were sent back to them.

What seems to be however perfectly working at TalkTalk is their billing department. They simply continue sending bills - and reminders!!! Even to a point that Moorcroft Debt Recovery has been involved. BTW, Moorcroft Debt Recovery should seriously think about their own reputation when working with such kind of crooks. MDRL, when called, were not able to elaborate any conditions under which I should pay, nor were they aware that I sent cancelations and the like. They are only there to recover money. Full Stop. They are not interested in the story behind.

Never ever in my life have I had this kind of experience with any service provider. They simply do not care about their customers. What a bunch of un-professional service providers.

Keep you hands off of TalkTalk. It is the best advise I can give.

It is the worst broadband service ever, the dial up was much better than their broadband speed,the speed was supposed to be around 17Mbps but hardly you get 3Mbps and it not reliable at all,every time I had to reset the router, I called them so many times they fix it, the next day back to square one. my contract was £19 a month when I told them I am leaving they increased to £29.
Avoid at all cost especially the cheaper one, I cannot say anything about their fibre optic.

Terrible service, we have had problems for a year now, works for 2 weeks then problems for 4 weeks and so on. We are an online retail company and had internet connection issues on black Friday causing us huge issues.
Talk talk have been less than helpful and wanted to charge a termination fee even though they are not providing the service! Terrible company, would not use again!

Useless company. Ordered broadband, phone and tv. Could only receive basic Freeview channels when higher package was ordered. No amount of talking to them resolved the problem, every time I did I got the same response which was they would run checks. They couldn't find anything wrong but were happy to carry on charging me for the full tv service and refused to let me cancel. Had to cancel direct debit in the end.

Worst company I have ever dealt with! I'm 8 months pregnant with no landline because talk talk are that incompetent they don't feel they have to provide a service even though u pay them! It's been one thing after another with them and that's if u can get through to them without them dropping the call. They are in no which way uk based so even when your emotional and in need of information you just get read out the scripts in front of them WHICH they read out 50 times before they actually do what they are saying! They have put a mark on my credit rating even though I've paid on time every month and haven't received a service for over 4 month. I've been trying for over a month to move my services to my new address but can't as firstly there was technical difficulties and now my order has been rejected!!!! A manager will ring me in a WEEKS time to explain why!!! I've just paid my bill yesterday. So turns out it was rejected because they forgot to ask me some information...so instead of ringing me n clearing it up straight away they cancel my order and then can't book me an engineer for the day I already had booked I have to wait a further 10 days for that....meaning that in the duration of my contract with talk talk I have received services for 5 month out of 12. Will not be letting this drop. I will take my matter as far as I can and I urge everyone else to do the same. This company is the biggest joke going....must be shut down I'd day

If I could give these NO stars I would
STAY CLEAR OF TALK TALK they take money out your account when they feel like they want to, they took 2 months worth of bills then took a further 2 lots of £12.50 all in one month, there customer service is absolutely disgusting, vile intact they speak to you like crap, there broadband is shocking , I’m connected the seccond I walk out my living room it disconnected, only 2 items can be added at a time or nothing connects
You spend loads of money to be on hold for 30minutes to be answered and say we are closed when there not , £15 + for that phone call, there not helpful in the slightest
They are just liars and thieves, and to top it all of I finally leave to go with another company and they have the cheek to send a letter saying I have to pay a £60 leaving fee , well up yours talk talk you ain’t getting a penny of me, you need to be shut down completely

AVIOD THEM , DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY
YOU MAYSWELL FLUSH YOUR MONEY DOWN THE TIOLET
