  • mpr147 Michael Rogers (@mpr147) reported

    @bt_uk We will leave and look for another provider when our contract is up. We have had issues from day 1 and feel let down by the customer service received. We aren’t even able to watch tv as it’s all dependent on a wifi connection. Shame on you for treating people like this.

  • LyndseyJMarr Lyndsey Jane Marriot (@LyndseyJMarr) reported

    @bt_uk I’m waiting for a callback from customer services tomorrow

  • johndurant63 john durant (@johndurant63) reported from Islington, England

  • _Princesscaz Caris (@_Princesscaz) reported

    @btbusinesscare We are still without internet been told on chat we ‘have a fault’ yet we have had TWO engineers unable to fix it.. how long is this saga going to go on? We have only just upgraded our contract so thinking to use our cooling period and cancel.

  • dylnlittle Dyln 🍀 (@dylnlittle) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    BT is honestly the worst company to have your internet with @bt_uk

  • DarthJ6m13 Jamie (@DarthJ6m13) reported

    @bt_uk My contract is up on the 29th, wanted a different service

  • van_hobble ashok khindria (@van_hobble) reported

    @bt_uk appalling customer services, appalling systems, appalling attitude. I say appalling, unless they were deliberately setting out to obstruct they couldn’t do a better job

  • dago1st mark mansfield (@dago1st) reported

    @bt_uk hi you transferred my 2 phones over to ee , SIM cards arrived Tues no info as which SIM is for which old number,½ hour to get through to help still number not transferred

  • Kevburt1 Kev Burt (@Kevburt1) reported

    So i decided to leave the broadband provided by @bt_uk due to years off piss poor service. Turns out the spineless gits decided to just simply cancel my TV now without notice! Scumbags!

  • DShadowUK liam graham (@DShadowUK) reported

    @bt_uk morning bt. Was just about to watch the cricket and i don't have a internet connection sky box not working eveything is down😐

  • CarlyCam19 Carly Campbell (@CarlyCam19) reported

    @bt_uk are you an actual joke? We moved house on 20 October and still do not have Internet. Our transfer request was cancelled 5 times and we've had to call you numerous times to get it reinstated. Yesterday it should have been done, its still not working

  • MWilliumz lil' dragon (@MWilliumz) reported

    @bt_uk Had THE MOST AWFUL installation of broadband we've EVER experienced. Engineer damaged our sound system, damaged house by drilling straight through middle of house brick, cables hanging out as he'd left tools at home, left his mess inside & outside. End result no services!

  • mpr147 Michael Rogers (@mpr147) reported

    Appalled (but not surprised) by how @bt_uk reacted to a fault on our line. The issue was your fault (reported by contact staff) and you cut us off from the internet and cannot reconnect us until Tuesday. I work from home. We have two young children. Not even an apology.

  • dylnlittle Dyln 🍀 (@dylnlittle) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @btbusinesscare Help me with what your internet is garbage decides to disconnect every 5 mins

  • johndurant63 john durant (@johndurant63) reported from Islington, England

    @bt_uk Bt kept me waiting 5 hours for a installation Another lost customer Send me a returns bag for your equipment I won't be needing or using

  • pablomcfc83 Pablo (@pablomcfc83) reported

    @mpr147 @bt_uk Bt tv is the worst experiment going

  • dailockyer Dave Lockyer (@dailockyer) reported

    @btsportrugby @btsport When will people stop trying to mitigate terribly dangerous and **** technique. How that's only a yellow is breathtaking.

  • CarlyCam19 Carly Campbell (@CarlyCam19) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you I will do that now, never had any problems before but this is getting ridiculous

  • johndurant63 john durant (@johndurant63) reported

    @bt_uk @stealthdonkey Thanks for making me wait 5 hours for you engineer to install broadband cancel my order ASAP ans send me a bag for returning hub Terrible customer service Last point without customers you don't have a buisness

  • IMBezza Iain (@IMBezza) reported

    @wlcustoms @bt_uk We had exactly the same, but it's OK they fixed it by sending me a new hub which cannot hold a wifi connection... oh, wait... Seriously though sorry to hear you have issues. Here's hoping BT sort themselves out PDQ... highest prices, worst service.

  • AustinTombs Eqoze (@AustinTombs) reported

    @bt_uk your companies an actual joke. Call as we’re having issues (High ping, packet loss, Download speeds 10% of what they should be). We’re told our appointment for our upgrade next week has been cancelled and an engineer will be out on the 17th for our issue with the line.

  • mpr147 Michael Rogers (@mpr147) reported

    @pablomcfc83 @bt_uk Agree mate. We pay extra for Now TV but the internet hardly ever works for us to access it. We just wrote that off but some days we can’t even watch the basic freeview channels as we ‘can’t get a signal’. We’ve learnt from our mistakes. We will go back to Sky asap.

  • Bethkerrrr Bethany 💚 (@Bethkerrrr) reported

    @bt_uk are you able to help me upgrade my package here? I want to add BT HD on, trying to watch MotoGP in standard definition is soul destroying. TV won't let me do it and neither will online 🥲

  • halfblindboy Si Hayton (@halfblindboy) reported

    @bt_uk for the second time this year I am without broadband and getting no help from anyone at your company. Last time it was two months. This time I’ve had full fibre for 14 days and only been online with it for 4 days….. this is getting ridiculous #DejaVu #sickofthis

  • deancf1 UTD we stand (@deancf1) reported

    @bt_uk Rubbish can’t even fix an internet outage my home internet has been down for 4 days now sent out an EE hub and that is worse than rubbish nearly out of my monthly 4g on my contract awful service

  • Fanackerpin Alison Pickstone (@Fanackerpin) reported
