Leigh Jamieson (@jaimo19) reported@bt_uk It’s a waste time nothing gets sorted just keep getting past to so many departments and the issue never gets resolved.He has had over 50 phones since start June.
-
LillithVexx (@LillithVexx) reported@bt_uk I was hoping to chat online because my phone is playing up right now but there is no way of talking to anyone. I just want to manage my bloody hub but BT gave me a stupid EE hub so now I can't use the My BT app or the EE app to manage it???
-
lee davenport (@leedvnprt) reported@bt_uk I can't because the My BT app and online is broken. Just keep ending up on a page that says that you cant access my account and you're working on a fix. It's been like that since around April!
-
Tom Tolkien (@tomtolkien) reported@bt_uk how do I cancel my BT account?
-
H (@surkdidat) reported@bt_uk I have but I am still trying to find out what the actual incident is and why it was down 5 hours yesterday and over 5 hours today
-
Pierssy 💙 (@Pierssy) reported@bt_uk unbelievably terrible customer services, the people I have eventually spoken to have been good, but the automated system is crap as is the 'my BT' when you have a problem. Engineer appointment show 2 different days on different pages, so frustrating!
-
grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported@bt_uk Really had enough. Please send me a link to make a formal complaint about lack of service and lip service engineer. This is yet another night, one of dozens wifi and Internet failed
-
Kevin Chubb (@swanseagas) reported@bt_uk It’s working again this morning. Hooray. But your “cancel my appointment” element of MyBT is not. Swings and roundabouts.
-
Simon Mitchell (@SimonMitch1956) reported@herbie963 @bt_uk They make it as awkward as possible to put a justified complaint in and then give you the runaround in the hope that you give up. Wrong on my count !!!
-
Seán (@mylastsatoshi) reported@bt_uk Hello. A customer of yours in Ireland had their internet disconnected yesterday. The reason was down to a missed payment while they were in hospital. Payment was made in full this evening, two hours before your people left the office. All three of your agents were made aware of this individual's mental state. I trust you will retain call recordings from June 7th, 2026, I know I will. Good evening to you and yours.
-
Nikki (@Nikki_Lou1922) reported@bt_uk We didn’t receive a bill! Direct debit was set up yet you never took any payments just discounted my services and added a late payment fee! Your error not mine! Yes it’s only £7.50 but it’s £7.50 that shouldn’t have been added to the bill!
-
George Somerville (@geosomerville) reportedDear @bt_uk - for 6 weeks I have had a wholly unreliable WiFi signal. So far I have had 2 engineers to the house & 2 to the outside set up. I am using the chat function again to speak with one of your colleagues for what is now the 8th or 9th time. There is no consistency, I have to relay the problem each time & each time they have another trick to try. I am getting nowhere with fixing the problem & just going around in circles. Please can I speak to someone who can help!!!!! PLEASE!
-
Tom Tolkien (@tomtolkien) reported@bt_uk you’ve emailed me three times now over the past three months with a digital voice activation date, and each time it never happened. Your chat help times out after 20 minutes and your call centre doesn’t pick up. Do you have an email address or postal address so I can contact you?
-
Matthew Freeman (@MattAkaSigmond) reported@bt_uk how terrible can you make the broadband renewal process?
-
Jacki (@SportyOsteo) reported@bt_uk can you please update me as to when the phone lines will be back up and running in SS177BW No 149 has my elderly relative without a phone line and no communication for over 12 days. She has a help line that obviously works off your system. Many thanks. Jacki
-
Andy250 (@Ministryofmess) reported@bt_uk can't get in touch with anybody about an Openreach issue. I keep getting text messages saying they are going to cancel our broadband engineer. Looks like a glitch in the system.
-
Paul Williams (@DonPauleone1987) reported@bt_uk hi. Hope you’re well. Tried DMing you about an issue with my account but I keep getting an auto response to log in to the app. Part of the issue I’m having is not being able to do that. I’m not calling 150 either. Please can someone reach out. Thanks. Paul.
-
PTID1977 (@PhilH1977) reported@bt_uk Well it don’t. It’s obviously an app issue and yes my device is all up to date.
-
𝓛𝓸𝓻𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪 (@SultryNephalem) reported@bt_uk I wouldn't be leaving if you had sorted my tech issues over the last 2 years. I find it very coincidental that I am switching and I have my problems turned up to 11! And my cancellation fee is MORE than I was quoted the day I was looking at leaving!
-
DBD (@DBDclothing) reported@bt_uk I am at my wits end with your stupid service. I’ve been without email for 48 hours and you’re just sending me in circles, even when I speak to your people. Do you have a human being that actually knows how your business works?
-
Leo Goile (@AussieBunyip) reported@bradbutterworth @bt_uk @BTGroup Ahh somethings never change.
-
Niraj Shukla (@nshukla86) reported@btbusinesscare Hey BT, Not sure how to reach out. I am unable to access my account on BT app. It authenticates well, means no issues with id/ password etc. But some how apps don't work. Have reinstalled the app but still the same error. My web login is working though! Pls help.
-
Elton Murphy (@eltonmurphy) reported@btbusinesscare @Starlink 5 days later and this might be fixed by Wednesday. We’re a business and we pay for a business service. Your lack of service, communication and even a temporary solution is pathetic. The best you’ve come up with is “use a 4G dongle”. Imagine running YOUR company through a dongle!
-
Aaron Law (@AaronLaw92) reported@bt_uk hello my account is completely broken, still cannot login - says access denied!
-
MatCo (@btcmateus) reported@bt_uk @danprofit21 Internet is down again! CR8 2JA
-
Keith Stewart (@lovemymemo) reported@WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk said they can’t turn it on before Monday! Please help!
-
On-On-On (@clark1919acaw) reported@bt_uk Hi - sorry, I mean the internet connection has been down all day, so we have been cash only in our store all day .. hopefully it back in tomorrow
