    @btbusinesscare Never heard back. 4 promised calls to investigate. Nothing. What the hell is going on???? You have now left us 20 days without a business service. @btbusinesscare are as useless as BT Business complaint management.

    @bt_uk once again our phone line has issues, not working, can’t make or receive any calls, my elderly mother can’t even call family or 999 in an emergency, this happens far too often! I want to make an official complaint, this level of service is not good enough!

    @btbusinesscare If only your team actually did something and replied to an Open Complaint No VP 7327470 - the worst customer care known to man.

    @bt_uk Yes for this coming Thursday but it’s another day that we have to wait in for engineer of which there is guarantee he or she will turn up and our broadband not working bearing in mind we reported the fault over 7 days ago

    Robin Stuchbury (@stuchburyrobin) reported

    @bt_uk Yes they’ve done everything possible within the limits of good patience unfortunately if other houses are receiving phone calls from different properties It suggests it’s the telephone line or the box which service is the area which is at fault not being an expert I would suggest

    Gahh #Broadband twitter is there anybody out there with better customer service than @bt_uk❓I am in the receipt of the most shocking customer service after an error on their part. I need to leave and absolutely do not recommend. Taking it to the top <sigh>.

    @bt_uk why are you so slow at getting people connected?

  • Clarko2000
    Paul Clarke (@Clarko2000) reported

    @Ofcom Thank you. Spoke to @bt_uk mobile and they gave me a full refund. To be fair they were excellent.I do think there should be some regulation stopping mobile users accidentally connecting to the MARITIME mobile network and their absolutely scandalous fees though.

    @bt_uk Hi, I am expecting a refund as stated on my final bill to be paid via my direct debit, but I have not recieved this yet. Are you able to help?

    @bt_uk Advised my dad to switch to BT from Sky after 19 yrs. Personally having had BT myself & having a good service I am shocked to hear of my dads terrible service. He's been messed around by 6 or 7 of your operators and weeks later is still not receiving tv. Shocking service!

    @bt_uk why is British Telecom Service so bad in Britain? phone signal drops in so many locations now, definitely thinking of leaving.

    @bt_uk Hi Craig. It’s a manager call back that should have happened twice over approx 2 weeks now. Both times we’ve been told a manager will call within 48 hours but to no avail. Not what I would expect in relation to a complaint

  • BenDilloway1
    Ben Dilloway (@BenDilloway1) reported

    Shocking service by @bt_uk - they have disconnected my parents phoneline and broadband (their error) and are refusing to reinstate. They never requested termination and are up-to-date with payments. Nobody taking responsibility, nor displaying any degree of empathy. Disgraceful.

    BTsport will no doubt mute whatever happens in Anfield tomorrow before the Ajax game and pump in YNWA. Some idiot will overdub booing and that’ll do the rounds. It’ll only be actual fan footage that will give a true indication of how Liverpool fans actually behave tomorrow…

    @bt_uk Dear Lesley, No-one was in touch with me today. That's the fourth time I've been promised a phone call that never came.

    @bt_uk In July I  transferred my Broadband to BT from SKY , and am now regretting this. My second bill included an entertainment package for Netflix and NOW. I have spent more  than 5 hours trying resolve this with no luck.Who can help?

  • pickledhen
    Karen Goodlett (@pickledhen) reported

    @bt_uk I have today emailed your CEO @bt_uk to escalate the matter. Enough with the back and forth which is getting us nowhere. I am disappointed at the level of customer care from a large corporate. Nobody seems to know what they are doing.

    @bt_uk Looks like an all day outage. Given I rely on this for work, will you be compensating for having to use data on my mobile network for the entire day?
