  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare I love the way you’ve got to speak to 5 people and none of them can give you a straight answer on when your connection will be live again. It’s like the secret service having BT as a business provider. Shocking service BT!

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk The most inept company in the UK, call yourselves a communications company ! you couldn’t connect dots on a dot to dot child sheet let alone connect a new build property, customer for over 29 years! useless

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk Do you think you could address the problem of your BTtv EPG in relation to entries by @DiscoveryUK. Entries misleading in time, length of prog, capital letters, no synopsis and unable to "record the series". Do you care?

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Still no reply or update when our broadband will be back on. Nearly 7 days without a business connection. Let down everyday by BT 🤬

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk Yes. The coverage here in Stanley is shocking. Time after time I have to connect to home or McDonald's or O2 hot spot to get Internet when out in Town. Even occasionally got no signal at all.

  • gman_hughes 🐢gman scouser Hughes 😬☠️ (@gman_hughes) reported from Ryton, England

    @bt_uk @CattleprodSub @Se2n22 We got BT and ours seem to be slow , is this BT saying we need to up grade to faster internet, hmmm 🤔

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk The Internet connection on your mobile network here in Stanley, Co. Durham is abysmal.

  • lornafaym lornafay (@lornafaym) reported from Seaham, England

    Absolutely shocking customer service from @bt_uk this morning. Glad I was already calling to cancel but being ranted at, demanded to re-consider and called crazy just put the nail in the coffin.

  • stevewallwork Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported from Annfield Plain, England

    @lynseyhipgrave1 @btsport @sjsidwell I think we know the answer to that one Lynsey. Our record is traditionally poor on Boxing Day anyway.

  • 1972wilksy Chris Wilks (@1972wilksy) reported from Chilton, England

    @bt_uk broadband down (again). Not getting unlimited 4g on my 2 Sims despite 2 advisors telling me I would when I rang up (twice) that is part of my halo plan. Not happy

  • gerrinnesmac Gerry1nnes (@gerrinnesmac) reported from Peterlee, England

    @bt_uk Tweets are nice but I don't understand how you're in business! I've tried 7 times over three days to call you and you never ever pick up! Just a constant recycled message about being busy! If you can't handle busy you shouldn't be in business.

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Why aren’t you dealing with our issue after 6 days without business broadband? Disgraceful service as our business is at a standstill with no replies or urgency!

  • 1972wilksy Chris Wilks (@1972wilksy) reported from Chilton, England

    @bt_uk @BTCare Hi. Got problem with my broadband which one of your advisers told me on the phone is getting fixed. But I'm not getting unlimited 4g that I should be getting on my halo account. Spoke to 2 advisors and still hasn't been sorted despite them both promising to

  • DanielJenks89 Daniel Jenks (@DanielJenks89) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk I have had issues with my broadband dropping in and out of my devices since that major outage happened on Thursday. I don’t know if anyone else has had those continuous problems during that time?

  • baldymanali Alastair Smith (@baldymanali) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk just received email from you saying my email will be suspended if I don't login. I read emails on your new (and I might say, useless) ap every day. Have complained about it previously. Get it sorted

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @PaulCaden1 and the students home Wi-fi likely no better either! I’m having to drive into work any day I am delivering online outreach presentations to schools or at online conferences as our home Wi-fi is so poor.....😳 @bt_uk?

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk And I NEVER get 4g. Lucky to get 3g!

  • kennydude Joe Simpson (@kennydude) reported from Seaham, England

    @quidco If you could also sort the communication problem between yourselves and @bt_uk that’d be great.

  • shahanchowdhury Shahan Chowdhury™ © (@shahanchowdhury) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk My phone network is EE

  • AdvancedIFA Advanced IFA Ltd (@AdvancedIFA) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btsport your service is terrible. Got billed £80 asked them to close account. Never watched it since pre lockdown 1 and today another £80 bill. Advised pay it or debt collectors will arrive then dispute it after payment. Very bad service. Still on hold 47mins to disconnect????

  • MTE_1984 Mike (@MTE_1984) reported

    @bt_uk unable to connect to home Wi-Fi since last night, ongoing issues in Sutton Coldfield/Birmingham?

  • dgbailey Prof David Bailey (@dgbailey) reported

    @bt_uk nearly an hour and a half (again!) on the phone to you & now awaiting a call from a manager. Meanwhile my 91 year old mum’s phone line is still not working after you cut it off 3weeks ago. Hopeless.

  • SwishSwish_Bish Amy Harrison (@SwishSwish_Bish) reported

    @MartinSLewis @itvMLshow I’ve got to do this with @bt_uk since they’re going to try to charge me more than a new customer, and any of their competitors for a slower service when my contract expires in 2 months.

  • stepbar Stephen Barnes (@stepbar) reported

    @bt_uk Eventually got through to cancel my broadband, but then was told that I need to take out a new 12 month contract for the landline. You know what? No. That's punishing me for your failings and isn't legal. I expected better from BT.

  • VickysTop5 Victoria (@VickysTop5) reported

    @bt_uk I was just speaking to Bilal who was finally fixing my month long problem and got disconnected! He was about to book in a cube engineer and was looking at spots. Please could he call back?

  • JoBlake15918678 Jo Blake (@JoBlake15918678) reported

    @btsport The black power salute is nothing to with discrimination, equality, solidarity, its blatant anti white hatred. You really have got sucked in to this blm crap.

  • JDMalin James Daniel Malin (@JDMalin) reported

    @bt_uk Why do I need to donor this way on social media? A real person to talk to that can sort the issues would be more helpful instead of a text stating what I already know and doesn’t help???

  • elias_mark Mark Elias (@elias_mark) reported

    @xxsnzz @JacquelineHugh3 @bt_uk You can. The contract is you pay, they provide service. If they aren’t, they can be in breach. Can do small claims to recover your costs.

  • AnniePShoreham Ann Palmer (@AnniePShoreham) reported

    @bt_uk Even if they fix it tomorrow without the password we won’t be able to connect

  • MarkyOatcake Mark adams (@MarkyOatcake) reported

    @JillDyson7 Hopefully someone from @bt_uk will be able to help you as soon as possible Jill. 🤞 two weeks isn’t acceptable.
