Simon Smith (@Simoncitizen) reported@Rainmaker1973 This is how it used to be. Honestly we are going backwards. The #digital age is #buckling. I have a problem with my landline. The digital service on #X can not solve it so I have to write a snail mail letter to @bt_uk
-
Steve (@SanatoriumSteve) reported@bt_uk Hey BT or EE or whoever the hell u identify as at the moment. Sort ur damn app out!! Logged out multiple times over past few days, for what reason?? Have had to verify who I am each time!! That's including the 2 hrs wait for a text verification code just to continue!!
-
grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported@bt_uk I can't create a bt account to tell you how utterly gutted I am with your service. I've not been able yo watch TV as a brand new customer for several days and I only started last Friday. Consumer act 2018
-
Jon Chadwick (@JonD_Chadwick) reported@bt_uk Still nothing. Asked for a manager to call back to see if they could help Still waiting
-
💫Adam👀 (@The_Change_666) reported@bt_uk any issues in Swansea for broadband? My internet has gone down
-
KG40 (@KG40332532) reported@bt_uk Please fix the problem with your email. x
-
Keith (@MaloneiD) reported@Ofcom I have evidence BT won't let customer complaints get to 8 weeks, so they cannot be reported to the regulator. BT closed out 3 complaints I made, without reference to me. One was closed within hours of being raised. Are they permitted to do this? @bt_uk @MartinSLewis #slamming
-
Paul stagg (@Staggly) reported@Nigelh7n @bt_uk it’s affecting be so many people and they can’t fix it - we all need to push for compensation
-
John Richards (@Johnty14) reported@bt_uk Please send me the details of how to make a formal complaint and the information to which ombudsman should be also informed.
-
Jon Chadwick (@JonD_Chadwick) reported@bt_uk Still can't get this problem fixed. Spent an hour on the phone yesterday, was promised a call back today at 3pm. No-one rang. Back on hold again. What do I do?
-
Paul stagg (@Staggly) reported@bt_uk @M300bt3 i’ve had multiple calls and they just say we are trying to fix it - they don’t care - it’s breach of contract surely and they need to compensate us
-
Gizmo (@Gizmo83508413) reported@bt_uk Done that already. I might be going mad here. It's your sodding website. It shouldn't be down to me to chase a fix ETA on a fundamental problem you have. This should be information on the website and with you, surely?
-
David Percival (@pencil316) reportedHorrendous service from @bt_uk. Dealing with my Father in Laws account and getting threatening letters when we’d been reassured it was sorted. Disgusting. Stay well away.
-
Jessica (@Jessica67669786) reported@ArmchairAdml @bt_uk this elderly gentleman has been a loyal customer for many years. He is now out of contract paying an extortionate price. Surely you can assist him in obtaining a reasonable priced package for his needs, and perhaps issue a refund for out of contract price hike?
-
Ste (@stepho2k1) reported@bt_uk why is your sales team pushing an elderly person with parkinsons to sign up for a new service. I will be calling tonight to sort this. Not happy
-
Mark Llewellyn (@markll64) reported@bt_uk Your email security is blocking access to the mail server as it suspects the network I’m on… works sometimes, then stops, change network and it’s a lottery if it works or not… I’ve setup a forward to gmail
-
Alessandro Riolo (@aledeniz) reported@bt_uk @ee How clueless you all are, asking me to confirm a security code received via email while I am trying to log in to your Wi-Fi hotspots? Has anyone ever tested that process on an iPhone? 🧐 What happens when the user leaves the login process to check the email? 🤨
-
James Morris (@Jimmymo79) reported@bt_uk my mother in law is ridiculously overpaying for her home phone and broadband, your idea of rewarding loyalty was getting it down to £90! Still more than it shows on the website for an existing customer but the person I spoke to is no not calling back or replying to emails
-
Doreen Grove (@redpath42) reportedI recently changed my tv and bb provider from @bt_uk to @EE the system was supposed to be a straight transition withe same quality of elements but the EE system is rubbish and it is almost impossible to speak to someone to help
-
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
-
National Grid UK Customers (@gridcustomersuk) reported@bt__uk__r @bt_uk Thank you. We are working with the customer now to investigate the Sunday power cuts.
-
Vicky Johnson (@VicJohnson04) reported@skytv £39.95 to send me a new box and I have to install it myself! when I’m already with you! Daylight bloody robbery @bt_uk I think you’ve got yourself a new customer!!!!
-
Sam Harcourt (@samharcourt) reported@EEBroadbandUK @Ofcom @bt_uk Cheers for the horrific broadband you supply to my parent’s home. Every time I come back here & try to watch a football match or the Formula 1 it fails. They keep getting engineers out but u never fix it, yet you keep charging them a fortune tune?
-
Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported@bt_uk Why am I always chasing you lot up? Service is in the weeds. Pathetic.
-
LadyBlues The question is always Cui Bono? (@Ladyblues666) reported@TweetForTheMany @bt_uk @EE I switched away from Virgin because of connectivity issues. Hope yours is better.
-
Ed Walsh (@Farmerwalsh) reportedWell done @bt_uk came to replace our aging pole but forgot to reconnect the internet again. Booked engineer but he can only sort internal issue not pole. Now have to wait up to 3 days for fix. If I break something I would ensure it is a quick fix
-
Emma (@88ejackson88) reported@bt_uk I cannot use the service checker, as I said I can barely get any 4 or 5g and am using what little I have to tweet. I have messaged the helpline but is this just going straight through to AI and how long until I get replies?
-
Dan Reardon (@DanReardon76) reportedDear @bt_uk we moved to an address you don't supply to in Jan. You said cancellation would be automatic but are still chasing me for payment. Your CS team are simply unable to comprehend and my complaint was closed without investigation. Come on eh?
-
jpb0332 (@jb0332) reportedBT / Open Reach Worst service ever! Internet service 3rd world Service appalling!! Make appointments to upgrade to full fibre & cancel without any reason or notification! No service at all!! Is there an alternative?? @bt_uk @WeAreOpenreach

read steel ball run (@booker213) reported@bt_uk The website I mentioned in the first post that doesn't let me view or report anything without a login?
