    @bt_uk Look into the old accounts and see yourself..no explanations given just cancelled twice. Service stopped. Then requiring next payment account closed 6 oct both complaints stopped by you. No reason given. Data request for deletion stopped as still a customer.

    @bt_uk After I've skipped the "I'm going to cancel" options (because I'm not going to cancel), I'm back to the same menu I get on 150.

    BT Broadband @bt_uk I remain without internet since Saturday 15th. You now speculate that it maybe the 20th. You have given £10 compensation- got to be a joke given the great inconvenience and cost I’m experiencing. Unbelievable Please deal with my complaint meaningfully

    Andy Toy (@AndrewPToy) reported

    @bt_uk I switched to Sky on the 25th August, and BT still took my direct debit in September. My account still shows open, and my next bill date is tomorrow. Despite 2 calls to BT to sort I'm still none the wiser. Please point me to someone with the ability to sort this simple issue?

    @JoeBurns1511 @btsportufc @btsport I haven’t ,recently sold it as I wasn’t using it, tried to get the app on my smart tv but no luck , I’m not watching it off my phone so it looks like just the prelims for me which is ridiculous considering I’ve been a bt sport customer for donkeys years.

    @bt_uk seriously ****** off that when i joined BT Mobile just now, the only way to get the new SIM working was to wipe all network settings INCLUDING WIFI AND BLUETOOTH! I told your this was a big deal but was assured there was no other way 🤬

    @bt_uk I have been told that to request transcripts of calls I need to request in writing -but without Wi-Fi my printer is not working! Do you have a complaints team or customer services email address I could use?

    @bt_uk No Broadband in WA16 since last night. Help!

  • harlequin_1963
    Gary Mackenzie (@harlequin_1963) reported

    @bt_uk Weird, I had to report a faulty line to you, which was a result of that broken cable. Lines being damaged were reported to an engineer fixing another line, but as he hadn't been called out to it, he wasn't interested. I may get an engineer (BT SMS automated answer) in 48 hrs

    @bt_uk unless customer service stop complaints about yourselves.never give reasons. Stop 2 move home actions no explanation. Open reach engineer comcancel order and stop service completely Will not delete data as requested saying still a customer.

  • adamridesagain
    Adam Rides Again (@adamridesagain) reported

    @bt_uk Do you mean some lines are able to support 900 but not 500? That seems strange. When I look as an existing customer it's not showing me any other options than the one I already have, but as a new customer I can see the 500 is available. Which suggests it's not about the line.

  • leewardle3
    lee wardle (@leewardle3) reported

    @bt_uk Only commit you have is to cause problems.cut people off then blame them for it. O that's right send a Dm to get nothing done. DON'T USE BT

    @bt_uk unable to login to emails. Just constantly get an error response saying try again later!

    lee wardle (@leewardle3) reported

    @bt_uk Yeah that's all you do..nothing at all validate this send this look into it then NOTHING. Do nothing even against data protection laws.then blame ex customer when it's all your fault.

    @bt_uk Hi I am trying to order BT Broadband and TV and my flat number doesn’t appear in the drop down list of my address. Can you tell me how to order.

  • Nathanjones0001
    Nathan Shelly-Bob (@Nathanjones0001) reported

    @beth_kitson @bt_uk Probably down to openreach issues, if it is the only alternative line type is either Virgin or a 5g /4G mobile router option (if sufficient coverage in area).

  • AlanMacleod14
    Alan Macleod (@AlanMacleod14) reported

    Day 75 since I ordered broadband from @bt_uk and still no connection, no idea when there might be a connection, and another level of ‘escalation’ that doesn’t go anywhere from the BT support team who seem to think it’s ok to just ‘call back in 10 days with an update’. #BT

    Well that's my @btsport and TV subscription canceled and I'll cancel my broadband and phone as soon as I have a new provider lined up. Good work @btsportrugby, clubs going into administration is not a joke to be laughed about and then tweeted

  • antronicsltd
    Antronics Ltd (@antronicsltd) reported

    @andysc @alister_ware @bt_uk Indeed. IIRC, they were saying that the problem was the data pathways (loads of things go through just 1 USB link?) - not the computation.
