How to check TalkTalk broadband service status - is TalkTalk down?
Your broadband connection may go down for a variety of reasons. But don’t worry, there are a few things you can try before you even need to think about contacting TalkTalk.
First, try disconnecting and reconnecting your devices. If that doesn’t work, try resetting your Wi-Fi router by turning it off and on again.
Sometimes broadband goes down for a little while. This might be planned maintenance, or something could have gone wrong on TalkTalk’s end. Fortunately, it has a service status page. This will be updated with any service issues. Or, if you’d rather check social media to keep an eye on the situation, TalkTalk also reports problems on its Twitter feed.
Finally, you could also use a third-party service like Downdetector.

Complaining about TalkTalk to CISAS
If you’re unable to resolve your broadband issue with TalkTalk then you can submit your complaint to the ombudsman. Every provider is a member of one of two ADR or Alternative Dispute Resolution schemes: TalkTalk is part of the Communications and Internet Services Adjudication Scheme aka CISAS.
You can contact CISAS once you’ve received a deadlock letter from TalkTalk. This is a document that states that you and TalkTalk haven’t been able to agree on a solution to your issue. You can contact CISAS without a deadlock letter if you haven’t had a response from TalkTalk for at least eight weeks.
Before contacting either TalkTalk or the ombudsman, you should read our in-depth guide to making broadband complaints. This goes through the process in more detail.
Fed up with TalkTalk? Switch and save £££s
If you keep having problems with TalkTalk, or you’re moving somewhere that your current package isn’t available (this may be the case if you’re currently on a full fibre package), you may be interested in switching broadband.
If you decide to make the switch to a different ISP, you should also read our guide on cancelling your TalkTalk broadband package. Just remember, if you’re trying to switch or cancel your broadband before the end of your contract term, you are likely to be charged a fee. Make sure you take note of your contract end date before you make any hasty decisions.
If you’re happy to switch now, here are some of the best deals currently available.
Before choosing one of these options, we recommend using our postcode checker to see what deals are available in your area.
