-
Lisa Mackenzie (@lnmackenzie1) reported@bt_uk Utterly shambolic customer service at your hands. Trying to help a very elderly medically vulnerable customer whose land line and broadband have been cancelled. Hours and hours spent on the phone to no avail. Next stop complaint to the regulator and seeking media coverage.
-

-
Kevin Gallagher (@Kevin9Gallagher) reported@bt_uk terrible service, internet down for 2 days, they said an engineer would come out, engineer rang me tells me he will be out Weds 9am never showed up. Awaiting a new router now. At least keep me updated BT. Thinks it's a new provider time.
-
Pam Medlock (@PamMedlock) reported@bt_uk It won’t! I have spoken to at least 6 different people for hours to sort the problem. I was told to buy a new phone which I was assured BT would pay for if it didn’t fix the problem. It didn’t and you won’t pay. 😫
-
June Marsh (@JuneMar68456333) reported@bt_uk is bt email down today? No emails received since midnight which is very unusual.

Emma Holmes (@emmapenelope) reported@bt_uk @BTCare just seen from my fathers bank accounts that he’s been paying £65 per month for phone (never used) &broadband (used) for over 6 years. He’s on end of life care. What a shockingly corrupt practice this is from BT to leave this account without intervention.
-
Ed Walsh (@Farmerwalsh) reportedGetting better booked engineer did turn up Engineer visit to other 2 houses with issues. 3 hours on the phone @bt_uk so I can book another engineer visit for Monday just because of Poor Bt workmanship Best bit they closed the issue as the no visit
-
read steel ball run (@booker213) reported@bt_uk How can I check local outages and is there one in the CW8 area? Your website doesn't allow me to view if there's an outage in my area without a login, and the scan your broadband function doesn't work since there's no connection.
-
grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported@bt_uk I am so disappointed that I got rid of @VodafoneUK because their service was awful only to find yours is even worse!
-
Jack Stocker (@JackStocker95) reported@BTGroup @bt_uk can anybody please tell me when the BT voice cloud app will be functioning again? Been down nearly 6 hours now and we cannot redirect any incoming calls. Need help regarding this ASAP please.
-
Jake (@jakehumphrys) reported@Plusnet @bt_uk It's been reported on PN, BT and EE forums now but there seems to be a regional issue with your GGC cache (specifically affecting some in the North West / Wales and Midlands) When Connecting to rr5---sn-cu-cime7 and others there's a bad initcwnd that lowers speed
-
Alan Reeve (@AlanReeve2) reported@bt_uk can you help, my emails have stopped working since arriving in Nevada. Everything is set up correctly and I've tried numerous things to fix it, can't even log in via webpage
-
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
-
gary tordoff (@chinleyman) reported@bt_uk I have norton up and running no problem but to load to phone its asking for the key
-
Dave R (@daveRessex) reported@bt_uk I see other people are having problems logging into BT email. The status is "We’ll be right back. Sorry, but we’re doing some maintenance on the site at the moment. It should be back...in a short while." How can you be doing "maintenance" in the middle of a working day?
-
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.
-
Ann Beck (@ann_beck) reported@BTCare been told there is no possible resolution to a system error in YOUR company so I either pay nearly double what you quoted or leave. CEO must be proud. Customer care at its worst #donotbuy #Complaints #BTscams
-
Lynda Hull (@lyndannh) reported@bt_uk HELP please.
-
Darren Smith (@Smicer999) reported@bt_uk I must have had 10 complaints raised and closed according to your SMS messages. I want an email address where I can document in detail the atrocious customer service I’ve experienced. Are you saying you provide no electronic communication mailbox at all for complaint procedures?
-
jpb0332 (@jb0332) reportedI have ongoing issue with BT & internet connectivity outside UK! Using WiFi I cannot connect to get mail on phone, iPad & computer! WiFi will not connect to Btinternet server! I spent hours resetting everything, next day it’s same problem! Gmail is ok @BTGroup @bt_uk
-
Robert Walker 🚜 🏴🇬🇧 (@WalkerDevon1922) reported@BTGroup @bt_uk I have an ongoing complaint since 8th May. Today it was closed with no phone call, no explanation, no contact. The issue is still ongoing and you owe me money. I have reopened complaint but this needs escalating.
-
"Lady" Harwell because my butcher said I talk posh (@wearesiam) reported@bt_uk not a word from you re no email service Appalling service!!!
-
James Morris (@Jimmymo79) reported@bt_uk my mother in law is ridiculously overpaying for her home phone and broadband, your idea of rewarding loyalty was getting it down to £90! Still more than it shows on the website for an existing customer but the person I spoke to is no not calling back or replying to emails
-
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.
-
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
-
Tom Chapman 🐀 (@TomChap) reported@bt_uk I recently left BT broadband in March. Is it ok for me to cancel the DirectDebit?

TINA MOORE (@Sassytrip88) reported@bt_uk Yet still the internet is so slow and has been for weeks Ive done all the checks and found several people in my area experiencing the same problem. It's not good enough
-
🐧 Me Might be Animal! 🐧 (@me_not_animal) reported@bt_uk It was escalated to a complaint yesterday, but due to your systems been down nothing happened. Just come off a call from them this morning and they have an engineer booked for TUESDAY, assuming the turn up this time and fix the fault, that’s 20 days you’ve left a know vulnerable
