Not fit for purpose

[Tomcat13]

I’ve had trouble with everything disconnecting from the WiFi since switching to talk talk. At first it was every day, then after a software update it was every week or so. Well it hasn’t got any better. I’ve started logging the downtime when it happens and it’s not acceptable and could be deemed NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE. As I spend long periods away, is  the reason to have cameras and a reliable WiFi service. Every time it happens there’s nothing I can do until I get home and switch off the router and switch it back on again. Since the 16th January to 16th February it’s happened 9 times. Has anyone else had this problem. Is it time to cancel and see them in court to get the contract cancelled without penalty as being unfit for purpose.

Hi Deb. No I haven’t heard anything.

Hi @Tomcat13 

Has the engineer made contact with you? There are no notes from the engineer as yet.

Morning @Tomcat13 

Openreach have updated the fault to advise that they have assigned an engineer to investigate this morning (external investigation)

We should hopefully have more updates this afternoon.

Thanks

HI Tom @Tomcat13 

Once Openreach have resolved the fault then if you could monitor the connection for a few days to see if this has resolved the issue.

I will let you know as soon as Openreach provide an update.

Thanks again.

Thanks Debbie. Let’s hope it gets sorted as soon as possible. Tom.

Thanks for your reply @Tomcat13 

As the line tests are detecting a potential line fault I have passed this over to Openreach to be investigated by a line engineer (external investigation)

I will continue to monitor for additional updates and I will post back on this thread.

No. I haven’t got a landline phone. 

[Tomcat13]

No. I haven’t got a landline phone plugged in at all. 

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Thanks for your reply @Tomcat13 

The line test has detected a potential fault. Can I just check, do you use the landline for making calls?

[Tomcat13]

Hi Debbie. I would just like it sorted out once and for all or just cancel the contract. There doesn’t seem to be any way of contacting anyone apart from on here. As you can probably tell I’m quite fed up with it now as I never had any problems until I switched and I need a reliable connection. If you can do anything at all I would be most grateful. Tom.

Hi Tomcat13

I'm sorry to hear this.

Would you like us to take a look at this fault for you on the Community?

If you would prefer to discuss cancelling your service then you would need to contact our Loyalty Team by phone or Live Chat.

Thanks
