redginger44 (@redginger44) reported@bt_uk I have raised a complaint and you already wish to close it I can’t access my account and realise I am paying more for BT sport I don’t have the time to make phone calls and clearly I am not valued as a long standing customer I left EE for same reason.
-
WTF...😂 (@Aliens2back000) reported@bt_uk I've been a long-time BT TV customer, but with only the BBC left for news (versus Sky's 10+ channels), I need better choices. Enough is enough! Please expand your news lineup or risk losing subscribers. Waiting..

CG2009 🦓🦓 (@CatherineG2009) reported@btbusinesscare Not helpful really. Any business needing help has to wait for Tuesday. Absolutely useless service. Currently experiencing THIRD week this year of broken service. Bank holiday should be my busiest time, but I’ve had to close. 0/10.

Schmemm25 (@EmmaHarveyy25) reported@bt_uk BT says no issue on the network yet our mobiles cannot access our home broadband. So frustrating. So much for hi-speed fibre. Time to move supplier
-
Marc Harris (@Marcharris1687) reported@bt_uk you are actually useless phones are down in our area when we rung you to tell you you were already aware but can't do anything or update you because the team are off until Thursday what sort of bullshit is that you only got one team to deal with issues
-
TSLG13007 (@TSLG13007) reported@bt_uk We have been with BT for decades and never known the customer service this bad. It is too complex to explain on here but after many years, we will be moving supplier

Caroline Applepie 🇪🇺🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇨🇦🇮🇪 (@CarolineApplep1) reported@bt_uk Appalling service. You did not complete our installation on the 20th as promised, so we've been left with no phone, internet, and our security cameras and entry phone system are offline. Thanks
-
The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported@bt_uk all especially as it's been working on a constant properly for the first 3 months after January installation it is your end especially if far away countries are getting the same issue of backup feeds cutting in instead of the show to come out then it randomly comes out of nowhere
-
Deborah Bebbington (@DeborahBeb1o5) reported@bt_uk Internet has been unavailable since yesterday morning, your tech bot is useless and now being told it’s a in-house problem even though it’s an area issue with everyone experiencing issues, been told engineers will be out Monday, there won’t be enough engineers mk
-
Andy Mich (@MrAndyMich) reported@bt_uk I’m absolutely disgusted, in this day & age of phone scams you have people phoning from unsolicited numbers about contract renewal (+44 1438 989233). All the person on the other end of the phone could say was “I promise I work on behalf of BT”. I said I can promise I’m the king of England. Do you see how stupid you allow people to do this? I think as a company you desperately need to review this practice, it’s dangerous and a disgrace and it’s making me think if you can be trusted at all. In this day and age it’s unforgivable to do this in this manner.

Sad Banana (@SadBanana9999) reported@bt_uk @ah_potts What “cache what cookies”?? All other apps working just fine. I cant log in BT only. I have been trying for ages! You have sent a bill and I cant access it . Really terrible service😡😡

fuey (@hongkongfu3y) reported@bt_uk hello BT. I was a BT customer for years but was shifted onto EE. I have a broadband package with them and 2 sim only deals (originated as BT sims) If I change back to BT would I still get the mobile discount with EE being the same as BT or would that change??

-
Brian McBride (@brian_mcbride1) reported@bt_uk With respect, I wasn't suggesting you look at my account, but simply asking if this problem of BT customers unable to access their account & there appear to be, have BT HQ put out an internal notice to the social media team? It looks like the 'guides' are aware but you aren't

Jac Dee 🇺🇦 (@Jacsplace3) reportedDear @bt_uk We switched to @EE home broadband 2 months ago and it's been awful since. We're now paying for two bills. Customer service think we switched in September 2025 - incorrect. Today we have no broadband Goodness sake the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing
