-
Christopher Rowe (@KernowChris) reported@bt_uk What are you doing to help stop fraudulent BT and EE scam offers reaching your own customers? These are becoming more frequent sometimes multiple ones in a day.
-
Vicki (@vcotton21) reported@bt_uk Taken out new broadband with you last Friday and I’ve had nothing but trouble since connecting some of my devices & wifi frequently dropping out, previous Sky broadband handled it fine. Can’t log into my account, really unhappy. Do I have a 14day cooling off period?
-
Simboman 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@simboman) reported@bt_uk Thanks for getting back to me. The complaint to your office in Sheffield over 6 weeks ago was closed and not dealt with. I'm so frustrated and disatisfied I'm pulling together evidence to complain to @Ofcom
-
mouse (@HooverMouse) reportedCome on @bt_uk Fix your email login. Happens to so many people, so often.
-
IsItAnyWonder? #FBPE (@IsItAnyWonder1) reported@bt_uk @BT_UK You admitted to mis-selling, cut off my TV services by mistake, and now your phone staff are stonewalling a registered disabled customer of 20 years. I have sent a DM. I need a senior manager to call me immediately, not another dead-end phone number.
-
Andy (@bigdaddymills1) reportedHaving an absolute nightmare with @btbusinesscare Had problems since yesterday none of them been without Sevices for 36 hours and been told I’ve just got to wait #dm
-
Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported@bt_uk I have now been branded as an abusive customer because I stayed my option the BT are idiots. I have abundant evidence to prove lies, incompetency and regulatory shortcomings. My service is still down and all you care about is hearing hurty words ... Try providing service!!!
-
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.
-
read steel ball run (@booker213) reported@bt_uk How can I check local outages and is there one in the CW8 area? Your website doesn't allow me to view if there's an outage in my area without a login, and the scan your broadband function doesn't work since there's no connection.
-
Lee Ralph (@LeeKRalph) reported@bt_uk @bt_uk it’s gone bad again. 11 mbps. I’m paying £52 a month for a service that isn’t holding up and it’s extremely distressing. I’ve reported the fault again but despite being told I was getting 20mbps+ after the first fault, this just isn’t the case. Please look into this.
-
grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reportedSo very disappointed with the lack of Internet with the new service @bt_uk 😞 😕 😒
-
@sharpy74 (@sharpy741) reported@martinintune @bt_uk Do you have any local alternative? I’m baffled why people pay BT for poor service at inflated prices. There are so many new Fibre providers now offering a better service at much lower prices. The days of BT’s monopoly and ridiculous Line Rental charges are thankfully, over.
-
Steve 'beyond the bounds of respectability' (@Stever_wales) reported@bt_uk I am trying to reach your customer support to get an overdue promised update on case no C10002481840. Being on hold for an hour, purposely being ignored i assume. Please help. Not a good experience as a new customer.
-
🏴 james buxton 🏴 (@buxton081) reported@bt_uk I’m having an issue retrieving my emails is there something wrong on your end?
-
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?
-
Amanda Eastwood (@eastwap) reported@bt_uk Please read complaints: C10001233999-1 and C10002182447. Aswell, the apparent complaints officer, had not investigated the complaint. Just wanted it closed. Then to top of off, when I ask to cancel the service - I get an email to say they are sorry for my loss! Nobody died !!!!
-
Anne Fowlds (@Annief54) reported@bt_uk want to make a complaint about EE. I am 72 technology I can’t handle. All I wanted to do was speak to a customer service they didn’t want to know. Sky at least treated me as a human, I was so upset, gave bad feedback they didn’t care
-
Ian P (@goatteeboy) reported@bt_uk Thanks. It’s working now, would have been nice to see some communication for what seemed to be a widespread outage.
-
🐧 Me Might be Animal! 🐧 (@me_not_animal) reported@bt_uk It was escalated to a complaint yesterday, but due to your systems been down nothing happened. Just come off a call from them this morning and they have an engineer booked for TUESDAY, assuming the turn up this time and fix the fault, that’s 20 days you’ve left a know vulnerable
-
Norman Wilson (@nwwilson) reported@bt_uk 10am this morning Internet down apparently a fault on my line earliest engineer appt Monday? 4pm this afternoon the Internet is still down, according to your line checks.....No Fault on my line. Internet however still not working. Make up your mind... Fault/No Fault?
-
Amanda Eastwood (@eastwap) reported@bt_uk I will never call BT again, it’s not worth the stress it causes. Very uneducated customer services. Have consistently been told incorrect information and no communication back. The apparent ‘complaints’ investigator I spoke to yesterday hadn’t even investigated my complaint.
