Our Blog

We've launch a new blog to bring together all the updates and information available in the community into a central location where you'll be able to get regular updates about the community and our products team including security experts about how to stay safe online. Why not head over to our blog now and checkout the latest updates. 

 

Your Ideas

Our customers are at the heart of everything we do here at TalkTalk, which is why we’ve launched Your Ideas Got a suggestion about how we could improve one of our products or the service we provide, why not share it with us? Once you've submitted an idea be sure to share it in the community to get other members liking your ideas.

 

New Profile Page & Wizard

Your profile is a showcase of all the great content you create or images you share, we've created a new user profile page which puts you and your content front and centre, making it even easier for other members to get to know you and find your posts quicker. You've been telling us that trying to update your profile can be tricky so we've created a new wizard to guide you through the process and in now time you've have your profile complete.

Re Service Status Page

 

Below the Service Status Dashboard there's a Need to Speak To Us? and a Chat Now button.

The Chat Now button doesn't work.  This is because the www is missing from the hyperlink.

Clicking the Chat Now button should take you to the Contact Us help page (according to the embedded hyperlink, just the same as clicking the Contact Us link in the page footer) but usually gives a 400 error Bad Request: Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

But intuitively, shouldn't Chat Now fire up the chat service?

Maybe the text should be: "Got a problem with your service that isn't listed above and want to get in touch, click Contact Us for help in contacting the right team."

Hi @StephenF

 

Massively impressed with the speed of correcting / updating the Community website.

 

The real-time notifications are working well and I can see this as a great bonus for active topics.

We're really excited about the real-time notifications, we thought our members would love this feature so it's great to hear you like them 🙂

The call centre is a complet waste of everyones money and if I ran a business like that I would be ashamed of myself

Sorry, I don't know what has happened to your first post (I'm trying to find out). If you'd like us to look into this can you please start a thread in the appropriate Support Section and we'll be happy to look into this for you. Can you also please complete your Community Profile so that we can identify you on our systems.

 

Thanks

Chris
