thisissaffers (@ThisisSaffers) reported@bt_uk I was supposed to receive a call back about my complaint. I was supposed to receive a call back from an operator about my WiFi and I’ve had neither. I’ve spent 3 hours this past week on the phone for no outcome. Could you request I have a call back please?
-
read steel ball run (@booker213) reported@bt_uk That number was unhelpful and still required a login, so wouldn't let me proceed. I just need to find out if there is an already reported error in my area or if it needs to be reported. That should be public information.
-
Welsh1 (@D1Bluebird) reported@bt_uk Yes, BT is the service provider. BT need to exclude faults in the area and to be honest you should run tests. I've just tried to ring the Restaurant and the line is still constantly engaged. Ring the number yourself Come on BT go the extra mile. Support local businesses.
-
Darren Smith (@Smicer999) reported@bt_uk Please can you supply an email address to document my experience with BT & Openreach that has to date: Cost me 8 hours of my time on the phone every day since June 3rd.

Richard Latto (@RichardLatto) reported@bt_uk Hello. Your email seems to be down on browsers. Keep getting the message "Unable to validate the information provided" when trying to login?

Gavin 277 (@gavin277) reported@bt_uk Is there a fault on your network in the LE17 area as there is no broadband
-
Simboman 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@simboman) reported@bt_uk Thanks for getting back to me. The complaint to your office in Sheffield over 6 weeks ago was closed and not dealt with. I'm so frustrated and disatisfied I'm pulling together evidence to complain to @Ofcom
-
Steve George (@Baggieboy1888) reported@bt_uk paying refunds with a cheque. In 2026. Obviously their hope / expectation is that with ever fewer bank branches the recipient will deem it too much of a hassle to pay it in. Even for those that do they are earning interest until the cheque is cleared. Poor show.
-
TINA MOORE (@Sassytrip88) reported@NickyHayesPhoto @bt_uk Im having same problem no email access and terrible signal & no one helps not even the robot🙄😡 Hope you have better luck
-

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

steven 🏴🇨🇱🇮🇪 (@weblivz) reportedI think @bt_uk have been in the pub watching the football today. Broadband has been up and down all day.
-
welshshez (@welshshez81) reported@bt_uk why am I still waiting for an adviser to help me via your chat option on website. It's been an hour and 10 minutes so far. A bit ridiculous don't you think?
-
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.
-
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.

HibsBoy1875 (@DE61656) reported@bt_uk i am getting the following message on my emails > Unable to validate the information provided > and even when i try to change password still not getting access. Please help
