ERRRRRR there’s yer problem (scratch massive exposed stomach with left hand!! LOL), it’s me U bend like!!
Last time that happened had me bare hand down the cra**er and had to fish out nearly a whole bog roll and the ‘floaters’ to go with it.
‘Poor man’ was the only sympathy I got from my wife
sorry i didn't read your question:
Probably not enough water in the system, its probably not filing up properly to flush away every thing in one go without filling back up. You could also be using too much bog roll!!

REPORT ABUSE ON THOSE RUDE SOBZ. I KNOW YOUR/ THERE TRYING TO BE FUNNY BUT AT THE EXPENSE OF THET MANS FAMILY AND ITS TO DO WITH HIS CRA**ER FOR GODS SAKE!

Do this test. Fill a bucket with about 3 gallons of water. Pour it into the bowl quickly. If it goes down without any sign of backing up, the problem is the amount of water going from the tank to the bowl and not a clog. Remove the tank lid and check the water level. It should be 3/4" below the overflow tube. Flush the toilet and watch the flapper at the bottom of the tank. If it closes before almost all the water is gone from the tank, adjust the chain/strap that lifts it. Make it so there is "just" enough slack to allow the flapper to seal. Check the holes under the rim with a mirror. If clogged, clear out with a metal coat hanger. You could also turn off the water supply valve and flush. Then pour a couple cups of vinegar down the hole under the flapper and let it set a couple hours. This will help remove deposits from the holes.

do not flush!!! no remember if it somewhat is paper clogging your rest room this is going to soften and start to disolve. supply it some hours. Then nevertheless do not flush use a bucket of water so which you will administration how a lot water is in the bowl. as quickly as you flush you won't be able to administration the quantity that comes into the bowl. try plunging it once you have the bowl 3/4 of how finished. it somewhat is complicated telling how far down the clog is. in case you understand the place your drain cap is exterior open it and have somebody seem to verify in the event that they might see water working.with the aid of it. on an identical time as you run water on the kitchen sink or yet another interior source. in case you notice no water working there your perfect to call a plummer.

sounds like a poorly designed toilet, try holding handle down thru intire flush and see if that helps. Only other option is to replace the toilet. I recommend Toto ( any) or the Kohler cimmeron toilet. The cimmeron is available @ home depot and is a close copy of Toto Drake

Adjust the water level in the toilet cistern by adjusting the ball valve. There should be a water level mark on the back of the cistern inside.

I can think of two possible reasons that might happen, either the cistern is not filling to a high enough level (either because it is broken or because it is poorly designed(e.g. too small))
or because there is some debris (for want of a better word) which is slowing things down getting through the pipe.

Make sure the tank is filling up to the proper level. If it is, then the pipes are getting plugged. someone above mentioned caustic crystals, I hope that works for you, just be careful when you do it. good luck

Put a bag of caustic soda crystals in then pour hot water in.Stand back because it spits like hell and is quite corrosive.

if you have a septic tank,make sure that it doesn't need to be pumped out.
