    @bt_uk Appalling service. Home move booked 2 weeks ago. Engineer didn't turn up but signed off job as completed. Another appointment booked on complaining but apparently no Engineer assigned by open reach!! Booked another one today, waiting! @WeAreOpenreach

  • hello_klol hello-klol (@hello_klol) reported

    @bt_uk I can't get over how much you've continued to increase prices for him over the years as he continued to complain, each time promising the next package up will solve his problems while all the while knowing there's a fault on the line.

  • pheydon Paul Heydon (@pheydon) reported

    @btbusinesscare And said he can’t fix it he does not do underground work. Said will get fixed Monday. Monday nothing happens. Spoke with your team yesterday said an engineer will definitely fix it that day. Still nothing. And now again nothing today. Can you please accelerate this so we can

  • OldGrumpyDaddy Grumpy Dad (@OldGrumpyDaddy) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk are now trying to sell@le an upgrade because of their poor service. This is just farcical.

  • chris_gibby Chris Gibby (@chris_gibby) reported

    @PSAWorldChamps @SquashTV @PSAWorldTour Horrendous audio sync issues on BTSport.

  • bigfishgd Omoa Gallavanter (@bigfishgd) reported

    @bt_uk Your call handler stone walled me for 20 mins all the while being coached and advised by her senior via her ear piece, I was billed £120 for something I should not have been charged for. What an awful way to treat a customer.

  • matt31smith Matt smith (@matt31smith) reported

    @bt_uk 6 weeks...5 engineers...7 phone calls..double digit chat help and "don't worry your fibre will be running by 2359 on the 21st of July"..0031 on the 22nd..no broadband.. partner working from home, this is not acceptable and everytime its discussed nothing gets done👎👎👎👎

  • Littlebirds00 J E Eckford (@Littlebirds00) reported

    No service this morning @bt_uk - it’s like loss of oxygen. Everything has come to a halt.

  • seaghanMK Seaghán🏝 (@seaghanMK) reported

    @bt_uk There’s something wrong with the broadband again, Wi-fi keeps disconnecting and digital telephone not working, making a trigger noise. U only just emailed me today to say you turned off the mini hub after the last time it broke too. See DM

  • EmmaRobertsE17 Emma Roberts (@EmmaRobertsE17) reported

    @bt_uk We don’t know who to speak to! Every time we call it’s a different story. There must be someone who can help. I was promised that someone would call us today between 10 and 12 but no call.

  • yeldarbneeks bobske (@yeldarbneeks) reported

    Hi @bt_uk my broadband’s gone down but the app seems to think everything is fine. Is there an issue in the DH6 postcode area?

  • hello_klol hello-klol (@hello_klol) reported

    @bt_uk It's nice that you're sending an engineer (again) but are you going to refund my father any of the £70/month you have been charging him for at best an intermittent and ridiculously slow service. I'm shocked that you are willing to take advantage of a pensioner in this way.

  • TPKMcMahon Teresa McMahon (@TPKMcMahon) reported

    Sick to death of my internet not working. @bt_uk I’ve had engineers out and all sorts. I pay premium.

  • EmmaRobertsE17 Emma Roberts (@EmmaRobertsE17) reported

    @bt_uk With BT. The service she has received is shocking and she is really upset.

  • chris_gibby Chris Gibby (@chris_gibby) reported

    @btsport @PSAWorldChamps Can you sort out the horrendous audio sync please? 30 mins in and still terrible.

  • OldGrumpyDaddy Grumpy Dad (@OldGrumpyDaddy) reported

    @bt_uk Yet they didn’t bother to tell the customer this had happened. Where is your clever customer system now

  • EmmaRobertsE17 Emma Roberts (@EmmaRobertsE17) reported

    @bt_uk A fault was raised but engineer missed appointment. No explanation. I was promised someone would call this morning to help. Every time we call it’s a different story. She just needs a functioning phone line!

  • ChampionshipRW 🔴⚪⚫ - Glazers Out (@ChampionshipRW) reported

    @bt_uk Would love Internet that doesn't cut out imo

  • hello_klol hello-klol (@hello_klol) reported

    @bt_uk After the amount of stress he's been through dealing with your useless customer service representatives he deserves a full refund.

  • AdamBrewster1 Quaranteenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (@AdamBrewster1) reported

    Pretty sure it's impossible to cancel my BT Sports monthly subscription online @btsport

  • DeanHorn Dean Horn (@DeanHorn) reported

    @bt_uk Hi - I contacted you yesterday and you told me you couldn’t help. I’ve now been informed that you can help and I need to contact you to arrange? You have held a lost number ready to port over. Can someone contact me please?

  • HeliosHutch Ian Webster (@HeliosHutch) reported

    @bt_uk It is now down again. Can someone please help.

  • EmmaRobertsE17 Emma Roberts (@EmmaRobertsE17) reported

    @bt_uk You have cut off my 81 year old mother’s phone line by mistake. Then engineer failed to attend. I was promised a call back this morning. No call. We need your help urgently!!

  • BAMADF debi fry 💙 (@BAMADF) reported

    @bt_uk Been trying to get a fault fixed on my elderly father's not working phone since 5th July. Stuck in a loop of text messages saying an engineer will call and nothing happens. How do I get the fault fixed please!

  • madrozee 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝘀 (@madrozee) reported

    @bt_uk your WiFi is the WORST. It goes down multiple times a day, sort it out

  • jamclarkey James (@jamclarkey) reported

    @bt_uk @JillLamede as Gareth from BT has said above, please Direct Message (DM) the @bt_uk and they will help. Just some background around why you're moving to Digital Voice, essentially old analogue landline phone network is being retired by 2025 so all UK is going VOIP (Digital Voice)

  • KevanLees Kev BWFC (@KevanLees) reported

    @daraobriain Yeah loads got abuse from one lady if you notice the fake auto numbers go up in digits. Phone company’s need to sort this @bt_uk need your help here. Scams using mobile numbers

  • irnbruicecream l (@irnbruicecream) reported

    @bt_uk @EE day 3, still without broadband after BT decided to disconnect me, was sent a mini hub which is only any good for the laptop, can’t connect phones or xboxes. Phoned for an update and no record of order to reconnect, terrible service from BT
