-
lauren. (@cyberbeautiful) reportedWhy do you never answer the damn phone!?! @bt_uk
-
andy grey (@andy_gray) reported@bt_uk I can’t resolve ‘online’ a phone fault. It’s for my blind 87 year old father who hasn’t got a mobile phone, internet or indeed at the moment a functioning land line. His phone is not the issue. How do I moved forward and actually speak to someone?
-
Simon Caffrey (@caffrey_simon) reported@bt_uk fault is on the openreach copper network.
-
🏴🫡 🇬🇧 (@glasgoRFC1872) reported@bt_uk can’t access my account either by app or website. Called customer services 5/6 times still not working .
-
Sparky (@oftheVotadini) reported@bt_uk @tringgooner I hate corporate replies like this. Instead of taking ownership of the problem, they palm you off to another department who will fob you off with a desultory offer
-
huw (@jonsie) reportedMessaging BT Customer Service over web chat is akin to NASA communicating with Voyager .... send a message, waiting ... waiting ... waiting @bt_uk
-
heebee (@KHC99d) reported@bt_uk It’s not just that. A job that’s been promised to be done, constantly let down and nobody is sorting it out. Unbelievably poor service
-
Alice (@SushiWolfo) reported@bt_uk But I had an email for digital voice saying my service is going to 67mbps when I'm on the Fiber 100 package
-
jenny leyshon (@jennyleyshon) reported@bt_uk absolutely useless - TV is slow in buffering and laptop is slow but do you think I can talk to somebody with a bit of common sense? No. Been told everything is fine but it’s not. I want an engineer out to fix as I need to be able to work from home.
-
Maggie Moo. Hold the line. (@scotslassnow) reported@bt_uk your bot has asked me the same thing SEVEN times. Asks me to text ASSIST, which I do, and still repeats the same message. HELP!!!
-
Choppaloppadingdong (@ScottWi28968286) reported@bt_uk want to remove landline from package, told on BT chat Ok but I have to pay £9.99 for a “Hybrid Connect” device which I don’t want or need, as a new broadband package has to be created and they must send this thing out?! I only want to cancel landline!! Anyone else had this
-
Steve 💙💚🏴 (@Superfx101) reportedHello As an existing customer, I thought I was supposed to be offered what new customers are offered, but the cheapest renewal is £15 more than what a new customer is offered. Please can you clarify, thank you @Ofcom @bt_uk
-
MumOfASwiftie (@Annette62702479) reported@KookyKym @bt_uk I’m on the BT900 (guaranteed speed of 700) and get less than 100 most days. No issues according to BT. Am still in contact with them to try and resolve this.
-
Warren Peters (@wizza_wozza) reported@bt_uk The options you’ve suggested don’t cater for someone who has very poor mobile signal and no WiFi, your auto tech checks say it’s working fine, but it isn’t. You’ve been contacted a few times during the week, several times today and still no resolution.
-
Jamie (@Jamieonthisday) reported@bt_uk signed up with you because of dreadful comms from HyperOptic yet 20 mins and counting on hold with you. Just as bad.
-
The Real Philip Lyon (@phillyonskem) reported@bt_uk And to add insult to injury, the last 2 times the number they've given me is "not in service". Must be the worst telecoms company in the uk. Prove me wrong.
-
Simboman 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@simboman) reported@bt_uk @shelliephair From my experience, complaints are not dealt with by BT at Sheffield - they are closed without resolution. It makes me two annoyed BT get away with this. How do I escalate an unresolved complaint. It is not a frivolous complaint.
-
Mickey Deehan (@MickeyDeehan) reported@EDiamond136 @bt_uk Just cancel your DD for the shop they can't do anything about it they try and bully you to pay it but don't give in also youfiber is cheap and you get 1 gig speed
-
@neil_huntingdon #LoveNHS #FBPE #BWithTheT (@neil_huntingdon) reported@bt_uk @s_starrr6 @EE My BT broadband has been broken for a week. BT say they don't even know if they CAN fix it, let alone when. Many broken promises to keep me informed. Utterly useless. Please fix it, or release me from my contract.
-
mrchrisjohn (@mrchrisjohn) reported@bt_uk There is an issue with 2FA Your support team are having to turn off the 2FA security and will take 72 hours to resolve
-
heebee (@KHC99d) reported@bt_uk @Xkay26x Our mother has been waiting weeks and let down on numerous occasions. Told to escalate. Escalating doesn’t make a difference. Same with our work contract - nobody cares and they re not to be trusted anymore. Since EE took over they’re appalling
-
Ba$ho (@MonkeyRaincoat) reportedHi @bt_uk I am desperate to talk to a real person. I don't have a BT account. My 95-year old neighbour has lost her phone and broadband connection. She is largely deaf as well. I can't call from her phone as it is not working...1/2
-
Professor Bu’Ger De Fino ™️🥶 (@maskcempt) reported@maisiethetortie @NLeespeaking We (@bt_uk) have to ‘send a text’ to the 3rd party mobile phone that IS working, so we can continue this conversation about the actual BT landline not working. We’ll spend the next 15 mins sending silly codes to the only WORKING telephone !
-
TechbooUK 🔥 (@techboouk) reported@bt_uk Your service is so trash that I'm gong to pay off my subscription and find another provider. Twice in the past three months you have messed with my account, first time took six weeks to resolve and today yet again its gone down. Utter trash.
-
Sem Essessi (@SemiEssessi) reported@bt_uk your customer service has gone right down the drain. your entire automated system is made of options that assume a million things that are not true for me. its just infuriating and you keep wasting my phone credit by failing to do basic back office jobs. call me ffs.
-
Julie Chrimes (@jueandgaz) reported@btbusinesscare I’m sick to death of trying to get my issue solved, 6 months and you still haven’t sorted it, shame on BT Business 😡
-
Warren Peters (@wizza_wozza) reported@LeilaniDowding @EE It’s a joke, especially for vulnerable people living in a rural area with little mobile signal. @bt_uk recent performance has been pathetic with an elderly friend who has no wi-fi, getting on for 2 weeks with still no fix in sight.
-
GG (@G1NG3R_N1NJA_13) reported@bt_uk I’ve done all that. It’s not working. Apparently it’s now a fault.
-
Patrick Neylan (@PatrickNeylan) reported@bt_uk I want to delete an account. Delete, erase, destroy. The account holder is dead. Your website doesn't help here. How do I do this?
