Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Even The Stars Music (@eventhestarsuk) reported@bt_uk hey. Why are you charging me £84 for a package a new customer can now get for £35 and the best price you can offer me is £65 with a 24 month contract? Ripping off long-term customers is a very bad look
-
Simon Caffrey (@caffrey_simon) reported@WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk are useless, saying no network fault so sending me a new hub even though I explained multiple properties and service providers affected 1/
-
@CyberHusky (@PetecoleO) reported@bt_uk Given up waiting to discuss issue you have caused! Will remember this at contract renewal time.
-
heebee (@KHC99d) reported@bt_uk @Xkay26x Our mother has been waiting weeks and let down on numerous occasions. Told to escalate. Escalating doesn’t make a difference. Same with our work contract - nobody cares and they re not to be trusted anymore. Since EE took over they’re appalling
-
The Real Philip Lyon (@phillyonskem) reported@bt_uk And to add insult to injury, the last 2 times the number they've given me is "not in service". Must be the worst telecoms company in the uk. Prove me wrong.
-
Di- Rect..🎗️🇮🇱🇬🇧(To The Point) (@ReformedMr) reported@bt_uk I’ve recently bought a business in Brentwood. And I have to be honest your service your communications has my other half in tears at the moment. Disgraceful doesn’t even come close to the way you’ve handled things. Please DM me for information ASAP.
-
Kernal 💼🧼 (@chefkernal) reported@bt_uk I was calling to cancel a contract for an elderly client but you can’t appear to verify who she is even though I can do it and I’m a 30 year old man putting on a funny voice
-
Warren Peters (@wizza_wozza) reported@LeilaniDowding @EE It’s a joke, especially for vulnerable people living in a rural area with little mobile signal. @bt_uk recent performance has been pathetic with an elderly friend who has no wi-fi, getting on for 2 weeks with still no fix in sight.
-
Changeling64 (@64outsider) reported@bt_uk Behind Brilliant things? How? When they upgrade system which results in vulnerable, elderly left at risk with a worse service than they had before! Seems #BT is profiting- w no free customer help number- hours spent trying to get someone to sort a problem that they caused.
-
Rob (Furbs) Furber who will K.B.O (@Illtydeyes) reported@bt_uk When oh when are you going to FIX your on line software to tell me what my options are for upgrading my Broadband agreement. You have been saying for a YEAR your options didn't load this time but we're working to fix it? #Shambles
-
BostonRabbit🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@Boston_Rabbit) reportedSo @bt_uk how long should a vulnerable elderly man (92) living alone wait for an engineer to fix his landline? Told one would be round yesterday as an urgent case. But as yet phone still out of order.
-
Changeling64 (@64outsider) reported@bt_uk The line itself is working-which those who I've spoken to can't understand-it's the phones ringtones, as a result of their line upgrades, which are now not working. Parents are pensioners. I bought their phones 4-5 yrs ago. We're not made of money to replace them again due to BT!
-
huw (@jonsie) reportedMessaging BT Customer Service over web chat is akin to NASA communicating with Voyager .... send a message, waiting ... waiting ... waiting @bt_uk
-
Large Vodka (@mizmuggle) reported@bt_uk I’ve already done this. It’s says network fault and the date for resolution keeps getting pushed back. It’s not acceptable and can’t get through to an actual person on the phone.
-
lauren. (@cyberbeautiful) reportedWhy do you never answer the damn phone!?! @bt_uk
-
Amai Chong Memes business (@AmaiChong_ninja) reported@bt_uk Our thoughts are with the people who used BT’s service and found out: •Hidden charges are everywhere. •The app is useless and has no interaction with the company. I’ve messaged you 6 times now with no reply. Scammers
-
andy carson (@andy_carson101) reported@eventhestarsuk @bt_uk sign up as new customer with the missus or someone else in house.... btw for around same price we get virgin with sport movies telly top speed internet & netflix
-
noone@nowhere (@nooneatnowhere) reported@bt_uk you are not listening...we have done that at least 4 times now...hours on the phone every time...a complaint was made in JUNE...nothing is ever done. Everyone just blames someone else. For a "communications" company you are an utter joke.
-
carito brigante (@teddypomp) reported@btbusinesscare your customer care takes some beating I tell you I’d even say Evris customer care and delivery services is better than yours Absolutely appalling And as for your rude staff on the blower What a Wally he is
-
RichNotRich (@sideangleballs) reported@bt_uk @btbusinesscare @BTBusiness Broadband down all morning. Constantly being told there are no faults is not helping me get online. Help please 🙏
-
Sparky (@oftheVotadini) reported@bt_uk @tringgooner I hate corporate replies like this. Instead of taking ownership of the problem, they palm you off to another department who will fob you off with a desultory offer
-
Professor Bu’Ger De Fino ™️🥶 (@maskcempt) reported@maisiethetortie @NLeespeaking We (@bt_uk) have to ‘send a text’ to the 3rd party mobile phone that IS working, so we can continue this conversation about the actual BT landline not working. We’ll spend the next 15 mins sending silly codes to the only WORKING telephone !
-
Claire #JusticeForNoah (@ClaireMadMax) reported@juliandc @bt_uk Also many places in rural Northern Ireland and Britain don't have any mobile phone signal at all
-
Janet Davies (@cisnegirl) reported@WeAreOpenreach @WeAreOpenreach have compromised our fire safety compartmentation in a block of 28 flats when installing full fibre in 2024 but award a Double Gold to their Health and Safety team! Details left on your answering service that @bt_uk directed me too but no reply.
-
Sonia Rossi 🇮🇹 🇬🇧 (@srossi72) reported@bt_uk I need help. Tried DMing and got a bot. Tried through the BT FB messenger...get a bot... Where can I message BT?.. I cant ring at the mo.
-
Steve 💙💚🏴 (@Superfx101) reportedHello As an existing customer, I thought I was supposed to be offered what new customers are offered, but the cheapest renewal is £15 more than what a new customer is offered. Please can you clarify, thank you @Ofcom @bt_uk
-
caroline jones (@11cemetarygates) reported@WolfofX There is no back up in an emergency now. @bt_uk ripped out the copper wire so no one’s landlines work in a power cut now. Motivated by greed. Love this story.
-
Kerry Sumner (@MinsterStudios) reported@bt_uk very disappointed that no one has been in touch regarding my complaint or actioned anything at all. The executive team were supposed to get back to me yesterday
-
Gari MacColl (@JGMacColl) reported@bt_uk Hi. I'd like to not pay you over £70 a month for a copper wire broadband service and a landlines number. Can you tell me the best way to leave yourselves after 17 years?
-
Sheila kirkby (@kirkbysheila28) reported@bt_uk @Boston_Rabbit What a way to treat a 92yr old @bt_uk you should be ashamed
