Ofcom Reviews 

what a complete waste of time these clowns are!!!!

They do not care what so ever, typical goverment funded company.

Allowing service providers to make well over inflation price rises. What is the point of Ofcom but to look after big companies interests.

Ofcom gets paid from the companies its suppose to investigate, Its all a con, Ofcom are useless, they just pretend to listen then say they cant help, wow in 2022 and we still cant communicate with these useless people.

Ofcom continues to publish high performance data for ADR schemes, knowing full well they're not acting impartial and are in fact acting on behalf of the companies we are complaining about.
Just look at the reviews on here for Ofcom, CISAS, CEDR, TALK TALK

Customer reviews speak the truth

I would give minus stars if I could. This company is a disgrace. They are biased, disorganised, unprofessional, ignorant. I had the misfortune of reporting my bank to them for the way accounts were hacked and the way the bank treated me during this time was appalling. I was totally let down by this pathetic organisation. In fact i am disgusted with them. Shame on them

Now totally useless, they are MEANT to be regulator in UK for comms, ie telephone, broadband; some regulator TalkTalk for example are no longer "signed up to the ofcom scheme" so they cant deal with complaints. Useless waste of an organisation, obv those at the top have stakes in certain comms companies!

Corrupt useless inept!

Give the illusion of a regulator... Then allow energy companies to I crease prices by 12%

Disgusting!

As often is the case with institutions who oversee things, they are as bent as the companies they are supposed to keep an eye on.
My God.

Corrupt and Incompetent

Did you not go to school?

You don't know the difference between 547 days and 30 days?

Another out of control body following the 'agenda' - why bother complaining when they never uphold anything? Very sinister but to be expected with all these so called governing organisations, they are all following their own agenda and that is not in favour of the masses, only the trouble making race-baiters, they are the cause of it, not the problem-solvers

Yet another totally useless so-called "regulator"!

Today, I began the process of reporting EDF Energy for totally underhand sales practices in sending out multiple emails where a single touch of your touchscreen signs you up to a contract. No checks not confirmation: if you touch the screen in the wrong place, you've signed up for a 2 year contract. Totally despicable trickery.

I began the rounds of complaining to these so-called "regulators". Beginning with Trading Standards, who you can't call, but are redirected to Citizens Advice, and you won't get a follow up. Then the Energy Ombudsman, who won't accept an immediate complaint, but insist you give EDF Energy 8 weeks to continue their underhand practices before you can raise a complaint with the government organisation (so-called "regulator") that we're all funding through our taxes! Finally, onto Ofcom. Even getting hold of their phone number is made as difficult as possible.

One you do get through (on 0207 901 7295) you have 3 options. Option 1 sends you back to the Trading Standards divert to the Citizens Advice Bureau 🙄, while Option 3 plays a recorded message saying they're not really interested in hearing complaints from the public who pay the salaries of this chocolate fireguard of an organisation). Indeed, Ofcom is another complete waste of taxpayers' money.

Why are we taxpayers funding these totally useless so-called "regulator" who have no interest in protecting the public?!!!!!

Ofcom simply don't care.

My elderly and vulnerable mother was scammed by a company called Expert Telecom.

Her bank account was emptied and they repeatedly called and threatened her.

What did Ofcom do? They suggested my Mother try talking to the company that stole from her and threatened her!

No wonder phone scams are rife!

Why is OFCOM allowing an unlicenced TV channel (SNOW TV) to broadcast on channel 271 Channelbox on Freeview? OFCOM has confirmed in writing that this channel is unlicenced but continues to allow it to broadcast into 20 million homes. OFCOM has also said that there are other unlicenced channels broadcasting in the UK. What are these channels and why are they still on air? Our channel, SKI TV is a licenced channel with OFCOM (SNOW TV is an unlicensed competitor, but still remains on air) but the regulator is doing nothing about unlicensed national TV channels being allowed to broadcast. An investigation is underway, lets hope OFCOM get their act together in this matter.

Investigates childish complaints rather than living in an adult world. Time it was replaced.

It is clear that this body understands their responsibilities as a governing body on telecommunications, however what is not clear is there purpose as a governing body to protect the public against fraud and nuisance calls. I understand the commercial advantages of monitoring costs to the public, however it is not clear why there would be a requirement to employ so many staff given there limited weight to enforce. It would seem practical to ask the question of this Parliamentary reporting department "What credible changes have been enforced in the last year by this department to assist the protection of fraud and nuisance calls to the public?" I suspect a large amount of money was spent educating the public, however doubt very little protection if non was enforced. This begs the question, if no enforcement is acted on then surely an investigation of the National Audit Office would be a better way in which to save public money and if anything it would reduce the completely inept and bureaucratic nonsense of Ofcom as a governing body. I'm interested in what is actually reported to Parliament every year to sustain their civil servant salary.

Uttlery useless. I filed a complaint about the BBC changing subtitles on their App, making them too large and bright, thus disadvantaging people with a hearing disability. I exactly followed procedure as guided by a woman on the telephone. I was told to look on the Bulletins for news of the complaint. As nothing had appeared -three months later -I called Ofcom again, only for them to say they had no record of it, and I must start the procedure all over again. I read out all the relevant correspondence, but it wasn't good enough. I asked where one could go for help if Ofcom failed. "Instruct a lawyer," I was told! I honestly don't think Ofcom want to challenge the BBC, who don't answer to anyone, it seems.

Don't be fooled by these SCUMRATs at Ofcom, they ae here only to regulate freespeech and protect the narrative of psychological operations conducted by megacorporations and the mega wealthy I'm hearing they're planning on going after bitchute... absolute trash, a dark fate hopefully awaits them all.

Ofcom have appointed 6 new members to its content board, 4 with links to the BBC in the past. Interesting very impartial. Waste of time

I wish i could give ofcom radio interference dept :0 stars".....never have i seen a government dept so disinterested in doing its job in finding interference on the radio spectrum. Every part of dealing with them was stacked in there favour.ofcom your staff are pleasant.... but your public service is Incompetent, hopless, useless and dam right rubbish and needs a serious review. I am thoroughly disgusted and dissatisfied by your dillatante aproach and unprofessional attitude.

Completely Railroaded!! To find ofcom alone was tricky. The procedure was entirely faceless, and my concerns of sneaking charges under the radar (£600 over 5 years) were ignored. They dealt with me worse than BT.
