Paul Beeson (@peeceebee23) reported@bt_uk Hi, our internet keeps dropping out with message saying connected without internet. Usually only lasts a minute or two. Being happening fairly regularly last few days. Any help pls.
-
Gavin 277 (@gavin277) reported@bt_uk Is there a fault on your network in the LE17 area as there is no broadband
-
Steve 'beyond the bounds of respectability' (@Stever_wales) reported@bt_uk I am trying to reach your customer support to get an overdue promised update on case no C10002481840. Being on hold for an hour, purposely being ignored i assume. Please help. Not a good experience as a new customer.
-
david bootle (@dbootsy) reported@bt_uk I was due a call back yesterday they never got back to me. Can you ensure somebody gives me a call back today? Please? DM me if easier.
-
💫Adam👀 (@The_Change_666) reported@bt_uk Internet seems to be back on now, this is the 4th outage in 2 weeks! Something is going on!
-
Mert (@mertisbrilliant) reported@bt_uk Around 9am this morning my fttp connection went down (amber light on the hub) and has not yet come back up. I'm based in Aberdeen. Is this a known issue and do you have an ETA for restoration of service?
-
Robbie Swanson (@Robswanney) reported@btbusinesscare I need someone to get in touch please. Really not happy with the customer service we have received. Our broadband has been off now for over 2 weeks. You have closed the fault off as complete, when nobody attended despite you promising to come to the premises.
-
grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported@bt_uk 2 weeks in with just 2 nights tv. Using HELP every night. Your help desk said its my TV. Nonsense
-
Scooby Miller (@Ragingtaxpayer) reported@bt_uk Fibre down again in G13, getting sick of this. Ever since you jumped in with EE the service has been garbage. Sick of paying you people good money for crap internet.
-
Kate (@ManiacSpaniel) reported@bt_uk hi my btinternet address has stopped working. I can’t get into it. It told me to call 0800800150 but I don’t have a BT number so I can’t get through the menus. How can I fix this?
-
June Marsh (@JuneMar68456333) reported@bt_uk is bt email down today? No emails received since midnight which is very unusual.
-
"Lady" Harwell because my butcher said I talk posh (@wearesiam) reported@jonboy_103 @bt_uk And not a word from them appalling service
-
Anne Optimi-City (@AnneMurawski) reported@btbusinesscare 2/2 Phoned you on 0800800156, held on, connected after 16 minutes. Told him the problem, no reply then line went dead. What else can I do ?
-
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?
-
MartinⓂ VOTE FOR CHANGE (@smeemartin) reportedI’ll tell you what, @bt_uk do not muck around, when their internet goes down, it really goes down, 4 or 5 days, no problem for them, they can do that on a regular basis and frequently do🤬🤬🤬
-
Chris (Christina) (@GalanthusA) reported@scubashark45 @bt_uk Unless you are happy to be without access to emails for hours (like today) I wouldn't recommend the switch. BT used to be good and worth paying extra for but not now. Been trouble since their EE merger and the fibre roll out.
-
@sharpy74 (@sharpy741) reported@martinintune @bt_uk Do you have any local alternative? I’m baffled why people pay BT for poor service at inflated prices. There are so many new Fibre providers now offering a better service at much lower prices. The days of BT’s monopoly and ridiculous Line Rental charges are thankfully, over.
-
welshshez (@welshshez81) reported@bt_uk why am I still waiting for an adviser to help me via your chat option on website. It's been an hour and 10 minutes so far. A bit ridiculous don't you think?
-
M.C. (@MCarvill180) reported@bt_uk absolutely ridiculous service. My extender wouldn't connect, customer service replaced it with another identical extender, wouldn't connect, customer service then said they were completely wrong extenders and they would send proper extender, guess what ..
-
🏴 james buxton 🏴 (@buxton081) reported@bt_uk I’m having an issue retrieving my emails is there something wrong on your end?
-
grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported@bt_uk so after 21 days of "service" I've had justv6 days of tv working without Internet dropping. That's really, really poor. If you don't cover Hurst Green then don't sell your service here
-
Steve George (@Baggieboy1888) reported@bt_uk paying refunds with a cheque. In 2026. Obviously their hope / expectation is that with ever fewer bank branches the recipient will deem it too much of a hassle to pay it in. Even for those that do they are earning interest until the cheque is cleared. Poor show.
-
thisissaffers (@ThisisSaffers) reported@bt_uk when should I expect a call back with regards to a complaint I have raised? I have been extremely unimpressed with your customer service.
-
"Lady" Harwell because my butcher said I talk posh (@wearesiam) reported@bt_uk not a word from you re no email service Appalling service!!!
-
Kevin Fowler (@KevinF1311) reportedSo I’ve had a BT landline since 1986 and broadband since 2002, but my renewal cost for broadband 900 Mb was £78.99 but after conversation £60.99, although a new customer can get it for £38.99. Ever felt like you are being ripped off.Awful customer service @bt_uk
-
alunvaughan (@alunvaughan) reported@bt_uk What's happening with your site please? First webmail, now whole site down which is no good when other sites send 2FA emails you can't get to :/
-
Berni (@BikerBerni) reported@bt_uk I have spent days trying to get email to work, My BT is not working, now I am told they have major ongoing problems! What have they done to tell their customers what is happening, nothing, yet they can still text to say the bill has been raised
