-
Richard Latto (@RichardLatto) reported@DomusCaligari @bt_uk Still broken - come on BT!
-
Steve 'beyond the bounds of respectability' (@Stever_wales) reported@bt_uk I eventually got through , was on the phone for over an hour, repeating my issue to 3 different staff members, and still no resolution or definitive answer. I need someone to own the problem, report back to me on progress of a Welfare Issue.
-
Janette King (@jannycat) reported@bt_uk Is there a widespread issue with BT email access today? Unable to login and I need to access my emails.
-
Darren Smith (@Smicer999) reported@bt_uk I must have had 10 complaints raised and closed according to your SMS messages. I want an email address where I can document in detail the atrocious customer service I’ve experienced. Are you saying you provide no electronic communication mailbox at all for complaint procedures?
-
pauline hodges (@paulineh57) reported@bt_uk @KevinF1311 This is why I left BT after decades of being a customer. You abused my loyalty.
-
Amanda Eastwood (@eastwap) reported@puddles46 @bt_uk So agree @bt_uk constantly closing complaints down without speak to customers. When they do speak to them, very uneducated in the situation. Just want to speak to a normal person 🤯
-
Kevin Gallagher (@Kevin9Gallagher) reported@bt_uk terrible service, internet down for 2 days, they said an engineer would come out, engineer rang me tells me he will be out Weds 9am never showed up. Awaiting a new router now. At least keep me updated BT. Thinks it's a new provider time.
-
thisissaffers (@ThisisSaffers) reported@bt_uk I was supposed to receive a call back about my complaint. I was supposed to receive a call back from an operator about my WiFi and I’ve had neither. I’ve spent 3 hours this past week on the phone for no outcome. Could you request I have a call back please?
-
steven 🏴🇨🇱🇮🇪 (@weblivz) reportedI think @bt_uk have been in the pub watching the football today. Broadband has been up and down all day.
-
Chris (Christina) (@GalanthusA) reported@scubashark45 @bt_uk Unless you are happy to be without access to emails for hours (like today) I wouldn't recommend the switch. BT used to be good and worth paying extra for but not now. Been trouble since their EE merger and the fibre roll out.
-
Aaron Law (@AaronLaw92) reported@bt_uk It's never worked since signing up, I was told my account was being deleted so it could be recreated
-
Chris Hill (@dochill82) reportedSo tell me @bt_uk: 1. Is this the excellent customer service you talk about being committed to? 2. Why was my account cancelled when you knew it didn’t come from me? 3. Why aren’t your customer service team bending over backwards to get me online again today?
-
John (@palacejohn) reported@bt_uk Tried for hours to access my account with repeated messages saying you were “encountering problems” .Finally it’s been resolved.
-
Berni (@BikerBerni) reported@bt_uk I have spent days trying to get email to work, My BT is not working, now I am told they have major ongoing problems! What have they done to tell their customers what is happening, nothing, yet they can still text to say the bill has been raised
-
TINA MOORE (@Sassytrip88) reported@bt_uk you are an absolute joke All services down while you make improvements No reply on various contact inf Terrible internet signal and no email If I could get out of contract I would but your shafting us there too
-
Tom Chapman 🐀 (@TomChap) reported@bt_uk Hi, I have just signed in to the BT account and the last bill says (Final bill). Next to the BT account No it says (Inactive). I was in credit and this was sent to my bank account. So I'm guessing its ok to cancel.
-
Hugh Jones (@sansirio) reported@bt_uk I have order VOL013-1056903730240, kit has arrived & I've set it up. Service is due to start on 17/6 but I learn that I can use the app to start before, i.e. today? The order doesn't show in the app & if I search for order + post code it claims they're incorrect. Help🙏?

🏴 james buxton 🏴 (@buxton081) reported@bt_uk I’m having an issue retrieving my emails is there something wrong on your end?
-
steven 🏴🇨🇱🇮🇪 (@weblivz) reported@bt_uk When I click the Scan for Broadband Problems the purple circle still goes on forever, so I can’t get past that screen. Everything still down.
-
alunvaughan (@alunvaughan) reported@bt_uk Hi is webmail down please? Unable to log in via browser or app for a few hours, keep getting “ something went wrong at our end”
-
JARVIS (@grantjarvis666) reported@bt_uk I have had possibly the worst internet from you over the past 4 years! I pay for 950mb and barely get 130mbps on a good day. Fobbed off every time I speak to customer service. Never again
-
Simboman 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@simboman) reported@IQuitMuskspace @bt_uk I dont know why @Ofcom allow them to repeatedly get away with such bad service. I hope you get sorted soon.
-
Gary (@petrolheadtoo) reported@bt_uk My BT broadband was down from last Wednesday until about 4pm yesterday. Now that it is working again i looked about messaging them to complain and ask how they will compensate me. Has anyone had any success or a helpful answer from a stupid bot. Me thinks its switch time
-
TINA MOORE (@Sassytrip88) reported@bt_uk Yet still the internet is so slow and has been for weeks Ive done all the checks and found several people in my area experiencing the same problem. It's not good enough
-
J (@jaysta1979) reported@jayclark0106 @EE @bt_uk Yes considering they are "the UK's biggest broadband provider" the service is not great. Already spent time on the phone to them and it still drops out regularly......
