Sadly some ISPs have fared better than others, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a> coming out top of the worst for fixed line home broadband.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The national UK telecoms regulator claims to receive nearly <strong>300 complaints per day<\/strong>, although their report only focuses upon the market&#8217;s largest providers\u00a0(i.e. those with an overall market share of at least 1.5%) and that&#8217;s simply because the smallest operators don&#8217;t produce enough data.<\/p>\n<p>Crucially this data only reflects complaints that have been made directly to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a>, rather than the ISP directly (e.g. users that have not been able to resolve a complaint directly via their ISP), which means that it doesn&#8217;t provide a full overview of all the moans being made across the whole market.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Lindsey Fussell, Director of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a>&#8217;s Consumer Group, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We expect providers to make customer service and complaints handling top priorities. While complaints have gone down, providers must work harder to better serve their customers.<\/p>\n<p>Consumers have a right to expect good service and will rightfully complain when that standard isn&#8217;t met. If companies do fall short, we will step in and investigate, which can lead to significant fines.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Take note that the results themselves are reflected as a proportion of residential subscribers (i.e. the total number of quarterly complaints per 100,000 customers), which makes it easier to compare providers in a market where the big operators can vary significantly in size.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Fixed Line Home Broadband Complaints<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Happily we can start off by saying that both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/bskyb\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Sky Broadband<\/a> continued to attract the fewest complaints from consumers, just as they have done for the past few years. Meanwhile all of the other ISPs saw their complaint volumes fall in the second quarter, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/tt\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">TalkTalk<\/a> recording the sharpest drop (i.e. biggest improvement).<\/p>\n<p>The story may not be so good for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a>, which failed to reduce its complaint volumes fast enough and thus finds itself being named as the most complained about of all. However Ofcom&#8217;s &#8220;<em>sensitivity checks<\/em>&#8221; also suggest that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/plusnetuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Plusnet<\/a>&#8217;s performance may in fact &#8220;<em>be comparable to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a>&#8217;s<\/em>&#8221; (they come lower in the table below), which is apparently due to the unspecified differences in how operators compile their subscriber figures.<\/p>\n<p>Never the less BT&#8217;s main complaint drivers were related to faults, service and provision issues; issues with billing, pricing, and charges; and complaint handling.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2016-internet-statistics\/ofcom_fixed_line_broadband_complaints_q2_2016.gif\" alt=\"ofcom_fixed_line_broadband_complaints_q2_2016\" \/><\/div>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Fixed Line Phone Complaints<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Consumer complaints about fixed line phone services have also experienced a reduction, which is good news, although strictly speaking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/tt\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">TalkTalk<\/a> still managed to attract the most gripes. But in reality we don&#8217;t think it would be fair to single <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/tt\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">TalkTalk<\/a> out too much since BT, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/plusnetuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Plusnet<\/a> and the Post Office all demonstrated a roughly similar level of unhappy customers.<\/p>\n<p>TalkTalk\u2019s main complaint drivers were issues with billing, pricing and charges; fault, service and provision; and complaint handling. Meanwhile <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> and Sky once again benefitted by receiving the fewest overall complaints from consumers.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2016-internet-statistics\/ofcom_fixed_line_phone_complaints_q2_2016.gif\" alt=\"ofcom_fixed_line_phone_complaints_q2_2016\" \/><\/div>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Mobile Complaints<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The story for mobile operators is much the same, although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> continues to remain head and shoulders above everybody else in terms of complaints received.
