Katy Nicholls (@Its_Baby_K) reported@bt_uk my business Wi-Fi is down and the only person who is authorised to talk to you (my manager) is away indefinitely. We need Wi-Fi to function please help.
-
Andy (@bigdaddymills1) reported@btbusinesscare day 3 of no broadband effecting my business and you reply saying you’ve opened a complaint wtf such a bad business
-
Kat (@Kat06075689) reported@bt_uk down and we have a medical device that requires WiFi to measure a baby heart rate. Device won’t alarm if heart rate drops so essentially we can’t act right away should that happen. Fed up with BT now! Can I leave without a fee for this?
-
Amanda Eastwood (@eastwap) reported@puddles46 @bt_uk So agree @bt_uk constantly closing complaints down without speak to customers. When they do speak to them, very uneducated in the situation. Just want to speak to a normal person 🤯
-
Sue Prebble (@sayescourt) reported@bt_uk cannot login to bt ‘unable to validate the info provided’ Same on mobile.
-
Shakinah (@shakinahx) reported@btbusinesscare This doesn’t help. I need my WiFi on
-
Michael E (@Michael35427696) reported@bt_uk We have made a complaint, you closed the complaint with matter resolved !! Without telling us how its been resolved ? So we reopened it, and still awaiting an explanation as to how you think it has been resolved ?
-
Dr. Max (@DrMaxPolitics) reportedWaiting to find out if you have a job interview is stressful enough without @bt_uk Email service dropping out and stopping you from being able to check!
-
Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported.@bt_uk thanks for the great service. Almost two months on, still no fibre connection and now you have cancelled my contract right in the middle of our daughter's GCSE exams revision. Well done everybody.
-
tha Movement Noize Production (@JumaMhlanga) reported28+ days waiting for broadband from BT. Broken promises, poor communication, and still no connection. Completely unacceptable. @BT_UK #BroadbandFail #CustomerService
-
Billy Kelly (@billykellyWWK) reported@HolderSuzan @bt_uk The communication companies are always terrible at communicating 😒
-
Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported@bt_uk I have now been branded as an abusive customer because I stayed my option the BT are idiots. I have abundant evidence to prove lies, incompetency and regulatory shortcomings. My service is still down and all you care about is hearing hurty words ... Try providing service!!!
-
Gary (@petrolheadtoo) reported@bt_uk My BT broadband was down from last Wednesday until about 4pm yesterday. Now that it is working again i looked about messaging them to complain and ask how they will compensate me. Has anyone had any success or a helpful answer from a stupid bot. Me thinks its switch time
-
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.
-
LisaF1 🏁 (@lisa7514) reported@DeborahBlythe @bt_uk BT are useless!! Had an engineer booked in today to sort out our tv and WiFi , he turned up at the front door said I haven’t got a tool for that as mines broken and walked off .. 😡😡😡
-
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 ?
-
Chris (Christina) (@GalanthusA) reported@MeinirT @bt_uk BT are a disgrace recently. They should issue refunds to customers for the time spent without email service.
-
George Somerville (@geosomerville) reportedDear @bt_uk - for 6 weeks I have had a wholly unreliable WiFi signal. So far I have had 2 engineers to the house & 2 to the outside set up. I am using the chat function again to speak with one of your colleagues for what is now the 8th or 9th time. There is no consistency, I have to relay the problem each time & each time they have another trick to try. I am getting nowhere with fixing the problem & just going around in circles. Please can I speak to someone who can help!!!!! PLEASE!
-
Shelley Squire (@badshelley) reported@bt_uk I’ve spoken to 3 people. 2 who confirmed the third gave me incorrect information. No offer to escalate and the process on the phone is a smokescreen. How do I navigate it to get a senior customer service representative?
-
TINA MOORE (@Sassytrip88) reported@NickyHayesPhoto @bt_uk Im having same problem no email access and terrible signal & no one helps not even the robot🙄😡 Hope you have better luck
-
Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported@bt_uk Sorry but you really don't give a sh*t. You fekk up at every contact. Hopeless 'guides', rude, dismissive, unwilling to take ownership, never advise calls are recorded on call backs and now trying to charge me for a temporary fix!!! PATHETIC.
-
Steve 'beyond the bounds of respectability' (@Stever_wales) reported@bt_uk I eventually got through , was on the phone for over an hour, repeating my issue to 3 different staff members, and still no resolution or definitive answer. I need someone to own the problem, report back to me on progress of a Welfare Issue.
-
Ramnish Kalsi (@ramnishkalsi) reported@bt_uk you have one of the worst set top boxes ever. Keeps glitching and restarts on its own. I was told it was WiFi issue but connecting via Ethernet plugs that you provided hasn’t fixed it. I am in a contract - what ar my options ? I don’t want to go to the ombudsman (yet).
-
erika x (@_erikacx) reported@bt_uk broadband has been down for last 20 mins, the online test isn’t working. Please advise
-
Christopher Rowe (@KernowChris) reported@bt_uk When do you anticipate BT TV will be back working properly? YT and NOW Apps working on the box, EPG not populating and content unavailable. I presume this is connected with the wider issues reported today.
-
Amanda Eastwood (@eastwap) reported@bt_uk Please read complaints: C10001233999-1 and C10002182447. Aswell, the apparent complaints officer, had not investigated the complaint. Just wanted it closed. Then to top of off, when I ask to cancel the service - I get an email to say they are sorry for my loss! Nobody died !!!!
-
Vijay Nathwani (@vijaynathwani) reported@bt_uk you cut customer services , phones Broadband and no one can advise after 4 days what services will be reinstated. After 30+ years of loyalty your staff advise us to leave as they cannot be bothered to take the pressure and answer questions on shocking service @bt_uk .
-
Gavin 277 (@gavin277) reported@bt_uk Is there a fault on your network in the LE17 area as there is no broadband
-
Global_Mongrel (@Global_Mongrel) reportedWhy do some companies make it really difficult to contact and notify of an issue that will help their employees avoid fines or worse points on their licence? Especially @bt_uk. Not going to post the pictures publicly as don't want the crap that comes with driving issues.
-
MartinⓂ VOTE FOR CHANGE (@smeemartin) reportedDay 364 with no broadband , @bt_uk still can’t be arsed to provide any actual service, just what passes for customer service these days, a useless AI pathetic response.
