  • mollssstuart mollie (@mollssstuart) reported

    @bt_uk my Bt wifi hasn’t been working since about 1:30 this afternoon, unplugged and plugged back in but it isn’t even lighting up. Is there an issue with wifi in Bo’ness?

  • JaneClifford23 Jane C (@JaneClifford23) reported

    Hello @bt_uk my broadband signal's disappeared in Leeds LS6.

  • josh_hardie Joshua Hardie (@josh_hardie) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve spent a total of 6 hours on the phone to them over the last two days. All very charming. All promise things that never happen and in some cases appear to have never even been requested.

  • GlendRay Ray Glend (@GlendRay) reported

    @bt_uk what happened was Anthony due to finish at 5 so cut the call, very customer friendly

  • reneedelait Renée DeLait (@reneedelait) reported

    Hey @bt_uk I was sent a 4gee mini hub but it has 0 signal and won’t connect at all… I’d really like to have the internet before Aug 19th. Help a gal out?

  • MarcH46314208 Marc H (@MarcH46314208) reported

    @BTCare is it 20 or 30 days of no useable internet before I can cancel my contract?

  • OfficialXau Xau Andrew Underson (@OfficialXau) reported

    Finally moved, so no more terribly unstable internet from @virginmedia. I've missed you @bt_uk, hoping for the best

  • SARBevan1 S A R Bevan (@SARBevan1) reported

    @bt_uk Are there outages in South Wales area? Neath area specifically. Having major trouble connecting. I have tried the usual troubleshooting techniques, any further advice?

  • GlendRay Ray Glend (@GlendRay) reported

    @bt_uk Total waste of time, zero customer service

  • MarcH46314208 Marc H (@MarcH46314208) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you. So I can cancel in 8 days. Is there a number to call to cancel?

  • juliesharp86 👉 Julie 👈 (@juliesharp86) reported

    @bt_uk when a customer says just a moment - this is not the time for your call handlers to hang up!

  • boneech Eric (@boneech) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks for your reply. I was unaware I was a customer of openreach. Correct me if I’m wrong but my contract is with BT and therefore I would have assumed that it’s BT’s obligation to let their customers know when the service is going down.

  • Pendreigh Lisa (@Pendreigh) reported

    @BT_UK It is now eleven days since my last email, which was sent to point out that eleven days had passed since I had sent my previous email. So that is now 22 days since emailing and receiving no response. Meanwhile, I continue to be charged for a service that I cannot access.

  • AndrewExplainer Andrew Knowles - Copywriter (@AndrewExplainer) reported

    Has our @bt_uk saga come to an end? Back in June they offered us credit for staying with them. Sales guy said it would turn up. When it didn't, we learned we had to claim for it. They emailed it. Except it never arrived. We bounced back and forth a few times on this one.

  • RichardSears Richard Sears (@RichardSears) reported

    @bt_uk you have gone from being best broadband provider to the worst. In the past month I’ve had my broadband go down three times. Well I’m not paying for this service. No way. Cancel my contract, you clearly cannot honour it.

  • boneech Eric (@boneech) reported

    @bt_uk Do you provide my landline and internet service?

  • VictoriaJ_Guy Victoria (@VictoriaJ_Guy) reported

    @bt_uk I'm trying to place an order on your website and I go through every stage and the final page that should be an order complete comes up with a processing error. I've been in touch with your customer care team who have said there isn't a fault. I've cleared my cache and

  • JaneClifford23 Jane C (@JaneClifford23) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks. I've texted that number. Disappointing I'll get charged for help I must say.

  • GlendRay Ray Glend (@GlendRay) reported

    @bt_uk could you try actually giving some CUSTOMER SERVICE rather than links

  • AndrewExplainer Andrew Knowles - Copywriter (@AndrewExplainer) reported

    I don't like to moan on social media. But there's no denying that big brands, like @bt_uk, can be hard to deal with when something goes wrong. Months back we had a phone outage for a few days. We had messages that we'd get a credit for the loss.

  • newgrandmomma Fiona M More (@newgrandmomma) reported

    @bt_uk Still no response to complaint, still asking for incorrect return of equipment proving my earlier points #BT #poorcustomerservice #fibbers

  • europesheila Sheila Ritchie 🔶 (@europesheila) reported

    @bt_uk I have spoken to a human who has explained what the problem is. It would have been good if the Chat had done that and not just got stuck.

  • RichardSears Richard Sears (@RichardSears) reported

    @bt_uk turn my EE hub back on! Third outage in a month. Appalling service.
