BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Andy Mich (@MrAndyMich) reported@bt_uk I’m absolutely disgusted, in this day & age of phone scams you have people phoning from unsolicited numbers about contract renewal (+44 1438 989233). All the person on the other end of the phone could say was “I promise I work on behalf of BT”. I said I can promise I’m the king of England. Do you see how stupid and dangerous this practice is? I think as a company you desperately need to review this, it’s dangerous and it’s making me think if you can be trusted at all. In this day and age it’s unforgivable to do this in this manner.

Vic (@Torified) reported@bt_uk my internet connection for my business account has gone down and the system checker keeps crashing. Tried calling but then keep getting directed to go online 🙄
-
Chris Fletcher (@Get_Fletch) reported@bt_uk I'm waiting for a call from the reactivation team. Apparently, they are outbound only when I spoke to your customer service and sales team this morning
-
bryony (@bryonycdc) reported@bt_uk you’re a ******* JOKE i cant take this anymore. i haven’t had solid service for over a month since joining BT, and today i can’t even talk to a real person cos you say someone will be in touch and hang up? i want to get out of this contract, get me off now
-
Lee Williams (@LeeWilliams154) reported@bt_uk Excellent service from Brian at your call centre BT when I called, got everything I wanted and possibly TV from you in a few months
-
Caz Morgan (@CazMorgan5) reported@bt_uk you still haven’t fixed what you did. Admitted to accidentally switching off our broadband and my elderly boss and his son were up till 4am at @OrionCinema trying to find an alternative way to keep our business running. We’re barely keeping our heads above water. HELP!!!
-
Dwain Driver (@TrainDriver1982) reported@bt_uk Your detection system says everything is ok, clearly it is not. Means I’m going to have to speak to your normally incompetent tech support since my open reach box was accidentally wired up to neighbours when development built. Literally had enough.
-
AFCdonnilad (@afcdonnilad) reportedPT1 @WeAreOpenreach Formal complaint incoming. @bt_uk @EE Order placed 6 April ahead of house move on 15th. Install promised 22nd. Now pushed AGAIN to 5 May with ZERO explanation. Repeated 48hr updates that deliver nothing. No broadband, TV, smart devices — for nearly a MONTH.
-
PS1984 (@Awaken1984) reported@bt_uk Your new login system for My BT is broken - "We are having trouble performing verification. Please try again." Thanks for making life so much easier with over complicated security. Not.
-
Zentara IT (@Zentarait) reported@btbusinesscare Hi have you guys fixed the issue the web ex portal error? There is an unknown error causing a problem. this was the start of the error but to be told by support im making it up is a joke even with images of it.

Scott Weller (@ScottWeller1974) reported@bt_uk Why are you holding me to a contract you can’t even provide the service for ?!
-
Tubularswells (@Tubularswells) reported@bt_uk @OpenreachHelp unacceptable 7+ day broadband outage. Newborn at home, baby monitor offline, clear vulnerability risk. Already diagnosed fault. Need urgent escalation, 4G backup and review for full fibre upgrade. Considering switching provider.
-
Josh (@Jsm0445) reported@bt_uk i had my bt email account hacked after putting my login details into a spurious email. I regained access to my email by changing the password but I don’t seem to receive emails and emails that say they have been sent don’t get received. How can I rectify this?
-
John O'Connor (@thereal_JOC) reported@bt_uk Still no joy. Using both my phone and a desktop. Same issues persists. Happy to keep my existing appointment date but slightly annoying. I’ve made a note of your number, but perhaps this is an issue that needs looking at in the background as well.
-
Literate Cynic (@LiterateCynic) reportedBrilliant! @bt_uk FTTP N/W - network fault and @EE* 4/5G utterly abysmal at my NR 12 7 location... *Roll on end May when I can say bye-bye!
-
Lesley Rubenstein-Pessok (@QuoSpera) reported@Somerset01 @BTGroup @bt_uk These structures should have something on them to determine ownership and wouldn’t it be great if there was some form of contact info to report vandalism or any damage easily, say, a QR code.

🐕📚 (@jaye_lass) reported@bt_uk Is there an email address as it is an ongoing issue? I dont want to gave to start at the beginning with online chat each time. I need support for calls and last time I was told to just try using less devices. Your engineer confirmed the issue is external.
-
Mark (@skipjackToo) reported@bt_uk is your wifi down?
-
rossdenholm (@rossdenholm980) reported@bt_uk no had problems for about a month now in middle of a online game and the broadband starts flashing orange and kicks me
-
Apex Signs (@apex_signs1) reported@bt_uk @BTBusiness I need to speak to an agent about a billing issue asap, So you tell me to go to live chat……..nobody available????? So how can I deal with this issue ?? How do I get to actually talk to someone ? 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. So frustrating!!!
-
Simon Roxburgh (@SimonRoxburgh) reported@bt_uk @BTBusiness shocking service today. Over an hour being bounced between departments, kept on hold, more automated voices, chat bots, crappy apps and all I want to do is talk to someone who can sort things out, properly.
-
ems7 (@ems7) reported@bt_uk how can I contact your complaints department? I have had two missed calls from them. The number on your complaints page won’t put me through. Live chat can’t help. I’ve already escalated the complaint.
-
Asif Rana (@HounslowParking) reported@bt_uk I’ve told your complaint handlers I’m not spending one more minute of my time talking to anyone from BT. Even recalling any part of this mess will make me lose my temper and I’ve already spent hours. My monthly bills have gone from £125 to over £500. Why? BT has no answer.
-
Markkkkk (@Isparkzz) reported@bt_uk Already done that about 7 times with your online chat and just get told it’ll be sorted in a week and never does 🙄
