BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Stephen Sharples (@sharpysharps) reported@WeAreOpenreach And then there is @bt_uk who are just beyond useless and unable to get any info at all on the problem after being kept on hold for an hour. Absolutely tinpot from both companies.
-
namecantbebrank (@alreetson) reported@bt_uk Since Tuesday, it's been an exasperating experience trying to understand what has happened and why. Her annex is now effectively redundant and she is confused about if she is, post-takeover, a BT customer or a Plusnet customer, and keeps getting stonewalled on the phone.
-
TechbooUK 🔥 (@techboouk) reportedSorry to my followers, I'm in the process of finding another service provider. I'm in the process of getting rid of my @bt_uk subscription. Thankfully most of my gaming accounts are now moved from my @bt_uk email address. Will update more soon!
-
Macro Bielsa (@Forex_trader_4u) reported@bt_uk Exactly.. I have to call to cancel. Should be 2 clicks max once logged in. Just trying to make it difficult.
-
Carol Lord (@CarolLo58903853) reported@bt_uk And I've missed 2 calls this afternoon due to my poor mobile signal. But no message left or any info.
-
(((Ian McKenzie))) 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇫🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇬🇱 (@iMcKenzied) reported@bt_uk As a matter of interest, do you know how many @bt_uk customers have been customers for the entire length of the company’s existence? Can’t be many. For the sake of £73 (which the next customer is going to pay anyway), you’ve turned good news into a bad story. Strange.
-
noone@nowhere (@nooneatnowhere) reported@bt_uk correct number ported back. It worked for a month and then stopped receiving calls from Vodafone, 3, Lebara and others. Now nobody is able to sort it and they refuse to let us speak to a manager. Can you help??
-
Helen Wakelam (@HelenWakelam) reported@bt_uk how do I get to speak with someone on the helpdesk about a broadband fault instead of dealing with a dreadful bot over text - disgraceful service?
-
Changeling64 (@64outsider) reported@bt_uk Behind Brilliant things? How? When they upgrade system which results in vulnerable, elderly left at risk with a worse service than they had before! Seems #BT is profiting- w no free customer help number- hours spent trying to get someone to sort a problem that they caused.
-
andy carson (@andy_carson101) reported@eventhestarsuk @bt_uk sign up as new customer with the missus or someone else in house.... btw for around same price we get virgin with sport movies telly top speed internet & netflix
-
Claire #JusticeForNoah (@ClaireMadMax) reported@juliandc @bt_uk Also many places in rural Northern Ireland and Britain don't have any mobile phone signal at all
-
Sem Essessi (@SemiEssessi) reported@bt_uk learn how to manage an account database. not being able to change the e-mail address back when you changed it in error... thats some high school level computer problem, not a real one in the real world for a megacorp.
-
Changeling64 (@64outsider) reported@bt_uk The line itself is working-which those who I've spoken to can't understand-it's the phones ringtones, as a result of their line upgrades, which are now not working. Parents are pensioners. I bought their phones 4-5 yrs ago. We're not made of money to replace them again due to BT!
-
Mark (@Walesguy2) reported@bt_uk Paying a bill should be easy. Automatic. Why do you make it so difficult for your customers? I’ve already spent an hour on this tonight. And your complaints page wouldn’t upload. Funny that. You think I have that time to spend on a **** company that can’t organise itself?
-
Josh (@_JoshDenham) reportedHi guys, is there any reason why my Broadband Hub won't connect this evening? I've tried the usual off and on again, factory reset but no connection whatsoever! Please help? @bt_uk
-
Rob (Furbs) Furber who will K.B.O (@Illtydeyes) reported@bt_uk When oh when are you going to FIX your on line software to tell me what my options are for upgrading my Broadband agreement. You have been saying for a YEAR your options didn't load this time but we're working to fix it? #Shambles
-
gusto beats (@gusto_beats) reportedFFS 😡😡😡😡 I’m 6 foot 6 FOOT away from my disc thing and sitting in my garden and my #btwifi is dropping out on my phone!!!! @virginmedia PLEASE put your internet down my road. @bt_uk you suck
-
m (@nerzia_) reported@bt_uk is so bad wow
-
Ed Thomson (@ThomsonEdwint) reported@JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk It’s Circet that seems to be doing installations and doing a good enough job on the track but won’t repair damage done by mini digger to the road when finished. 🫣
-
𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝕍𝕖𝕘𝕒𝕟 𝕋𝕚𝕞 🍀🌱 (@thevegantim) reported@bt_uk fobbed off by three people in the last hour, possibly the worst customer service I've ever experienced in my life - which matches up with the broadband install service, which has been diabolically poor. How many hoops do I need to jump through to get an answer??
-
Roibeard Mhuiris (@RMhuiris) reported@JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk 👇I have never met a bigger bunch of morons and incompetents. Absolute shysters and charlatans:
-
Colin Burns (@ColinWBurns) reported@JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk Spineless from those who did the damage. Whatever happened to being honest and owning up to one’s mistakes?
-
Sev (@Sevka_T) reportedHi, I haven't been a customer since 2024 and today I am receiving texts and emails saying my trial is coming to an end. What is going on? @bt_uk
-
Amai Chong Memes business (@AmaiChong_ninja) reported@bt_uk Our thoughts are with the people who used BT’s service and found out: •Hidden charges are everywhere. •The app is useless and has no interaction with the company. I’ve messaged you 6 times now with no reply. Scammers
-
caroline jones (@11cemetarygates) reported@WolfofX There is no back up in an emergency now. @bt_uk ripped out the copper wire so no one’s landlines work in a power cut now. Motivated by greed. Love this story.
-
Darren Whitehall (@darrenwhitehall) reported@bt_uk my mother phone line has a fault and it is not working I have brought new phones and this has not changed the issue. I need help as my mum has dementia.
-
Lesley Talbot (@LesleyT88) reported@bt_uk your customer service is terrible! This issue still hasn’t been resolved! Told this morning that your executive customer care team would contact my mum to discuss the issue as a priority and she still hasn’t had a call! Paying customers are clearly not a priority to you
-
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
-
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
-
Even The Stars Music (@eventhestarsuk) reported@bt_uk hey. Why are you charging me £84 for a package a new customer can now get for £35 and the best price you can offer me is £65 with a 24 month contract? Ripping off long-term customers is a very bad look
