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 .
-
M.C. (@MCarvill180) reported@bt_uk absolutely ridiculous service. My extender wouldn't connect, customer service replaced it with another identical extender, wouldn't connect, customer service then said they were completely wrong extenders and they would send proper extender, guess what ..
-
Tablet Science (@TabletScience) reported@bt_uk I can't get access to my btinternet email account and there is absolutely no way to contact BT. Every way they give to contact them doesn't work. Can't phone, can't text, can't email. How can I force BT to pay attention? Offer to buy something from them?
-
Kate (@ManiacSpaniel) reported@bt_uk I’m still blocked from my btinternet email weeks later. Your customer care person said someone would call but they didn’t. How can I resolve this? I have important information in that email account and you’ve stopped me accessing it with no warning.

Alan Swanson (@Haggisguy) reported@bt_uk I cannot be the only person facing this issue, been doing it online for years, until the current bill.

Digger (@JohnKaysCanoe) reported@bt_uk is there a reason why my broadband goes down at 02:15 every single night without fail?

-
Shoshanah Cohen (@sc2987) reported@bt_uk It seems to have been cancelled now (I don't know how that actually was actioned though!). But that still leaves her with the issue of getting the correct internet (as the whole package was cancelled).
-
steven 🏴🇨🇱🇮🇪 (@weblivz) reported@bt_uk When I click the Scan for Broadband Problems the purple circle still goes on forever, so I can’t get past that screen. Everything still down.
-
Vicky Fraser (@bt_vicky) reported@bt_uk Loyal customer of many years here! Please can you tell me how to get technical email support?! Chatbot offering unhelpful advice and signposting to manuals and no reply on the telephone numbers provided. Ty

Mark 💙🤍 🇪🇺 🌈 (@MarkJohnpotter) reported@bt_uk what a useless company this is. They can be as rude as they like to customers. Dreadful company
-
David Jackson (@davidjjackson) reported@bt_uk He offered to put a complaint in, but admitted it wouldnt amount to much. So I said what is the point. Whilst I have had some rubbish service from staff, the problem is @bt_uk itself. How can you sell a service, wth new hardware that is not capable of delivering that service?
-
Restore Britain Moray (@theFMofficer) reported@bt_uk Hi BT. I'm eligible for BT Home Essentials, but I'm not a BT or EE customer. I need to apply online as I can't use the phone due to a disability. I can't find an online application for new customers. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks. @Ofcom

alex (@Alex_CK2) reported@BT_UK My parents been without WiFi for 3 days. They were told it was billing issue despite paying and having proof. Today my mum was passed between 5 people, blaming either billing or a copper wire switch. No fix, no warning, despite paying hundreds each month. Awful service.
-
Gillian Smith (@GillianSmith16) reported@bt_uk @Beji218888 Your service checker is saying your system is down and your service centres won’t have any more information. This is 2026
-
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.
-
nicolas mcmillan (@herbie963) reported@bt_uk Online service recovery is a joke, get a senior UK manager to pm me please
-
Keith Stewart (@lovemymemo) reported@WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk said they can’t turn it on before Monday! Please help!
-
Pierssy 💙 (@Pierssy) reported@bt_uk unbelievably terrible customer services, the people I have eventually spoken to have been good, but the automated system is crap as is the 'my BT' when you have a problem. Engineer appointment show 2 different days on different pages, so frustrating!
-
Kevin Chubb (@swanseagas) reportedIt only took @bt_uk 14 days to fix the broadband we pay them to provide. And it lasted a good 9 hours before it stopped working again. We should be grateful really. Incompetence on an industrial scale. Bravo. What a shambles.
-
John (@palacejohn) reported@bt_uk absolutely disgraceful customer service yet again from your company-not the agents fault just a dreadful system designed not to engage with paying customers leaving a 93 year old with Alzheimer’s with no means of communication.
-
BudeBee (@_BudeBee) reported@bt_uk The person on 0330 1234 150 wouldn’t resolve the problem, cut me off while I was still speaking and rerouted me to a long queue for reporting issues.
-
Marc Dyson 🐟🐟🐟 (@markymarc1973) reported@bt_uk Tremendous work @bt_uk not only have I contacted you on here (and you haven’t even replied or DM’d to my reply), but I also emailed you and got nothing back. So, phone call, twitter feed and email and no comeback from you guys other than to call again. Awful. Goodbye in Oct.
-
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?
