Worst customer service goes to @bt_uk ... Moved into my first home expecting to have the internet up and running to work. They cancelled the order without telling me, been told 100 things about getting it resolved. Absolutely fuming. Stay clear, they don’t care.

@Ofcom I did state that, my issue like tens of thousands of others is why do they have a price scale which clearly discriminates against the elderly, poor, and disabled. 100Mb, 200Mb, 350Mb doesn't cost the supplier any more than a base price - why the scaling? @virginmedia @bt_uk

@bt_uk Hi Aled, Thank you for your advice. I will. It’s quite the disappointing Merry go round with @bt_uk The lack of communication with the customer must be embarrassing for you. It’s a pity I’m having to chase them rather than them communicating with us.

@bt_uk Hi. Had a problem with the internet a while back. You thought it was the hub so you sent us a new one but turned out to be an incorrectly wired junction box. So now got a brand new hub lying around. Aren’t you going to send a bag so I can send it back?

@bt_uk I’m really disappointed with how you treated my mum. She not had phone services for weeks. Now you got her account working. The internet has gone down few days ago. She was told that there was a fault in the area. Now she been told she cancelled her contract?

Shout out Adam in the Blackburn @bt_uk centre for acknowledging their system has caused the problem & doing his best to sort it out. Still don’t even know if we’ll have broadband by next week, but it’s not his fault. It’s BT’s system that has caused all this stress & hassle.

@bt_uk bt customer service principles: 1 Never call back a customer unless customer has complained on social media 2 After several complaints just ignore completely. 3 Don’t bother rectifying problem that prompted complaints in the first place

@bt_uk I've had an email saying my TV contract is ending. Was going to renew but can't get through by phone and I'm unable to manage my account at all online due to an ongoing issue (2 years now!) that you have failed to rectify. What do I need to do?

@bt_uk Dispute resolution non-existent; easier just not to reply apparently and pass to debt collectors. Great way to treat an elderly customer who had been with you for 50 plus years. #BT#NoShame

@bt_uk Please help! Logged a no dialtone fault on the 09th November. Now 11th December and no communications regarding rectification. We live in a poor mobile signal area and rely on our landline for emergency contact if needed.

@bt_uk Hi, thank you for your reply. However as a long standing customer I shouldn’t need to contact BT and beg for a better deal.
