Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Witton Gilbert and nearby locations:

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

    @rkelwick @fozia4 @bt_uk I’m waiting to receive my £100 as my BT Broadband regularly cuts me off Zoom calls and the picture quality from our BT TV is regularly terrible (but fine on the app on my iPad? 🤔)

  • 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!

  • 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 🤬

  • 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 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!

  • ChaneyMichael Michael Chaney (@ChaneyMichael) reported from Dunston, England

    @gateshead who do you report vandalism of a phone box to, is it council or @bt_uk can you help? As it is a BT phone box.

  • 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????

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

    @btbusinesscare guess what? Promised a phone call 1 hour after I spoke to your team on the phone at 10am and they haven’t rang back. You are exceeding my expectations of being the worst service provider in the UK right now 👏

  • charming_man_ Tory 1 (@charming_man_) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk can we have an update on the outage Middlesbrough TS5

  • 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.

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @bt_uk I’m still down on all platforms (apart from my iPhone which I don’t log out of)

  • Raring2goNewcas Raring2Go! Newcastle (@Raring2goNewcas) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Technology… why does it fail when you want to watch live sport? #itv has vanished from our telly. 🙄 good job we’ve got a back up tv with old fashioned aerial. I see we didn’t miss much when trying to retune… #POLENG @bt_uk full package fail again…

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @bt_uk It’s down on all platforms I’m trying to log into except my iPhone which I don’t log out of…

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

    @bt_uk My @btsport picture quality often way worse than this - pixelated and unwatchable with broken up sound. When are you sending me my £100? (and more importantly providing me with a more reliable service? 🤔).

  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported from Witton-le-Wear, England

    @bt_uk We currently have @skytv but after a week of little to no signal, the sky engineers have confirmed it’s an issue with trees out issue of our garden so sky looks like a no go! We currently have sky q in three rooms, do bt allows three boxes in the same house??

  • Raring2goNewcas Raring2Go! Newcastle (@Raring2goNewcas) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @BTCare @bt_uk hello, hope you can help please? After a 95 minute phone call on Saturday your advisor assured me my problems would be solved by an engineer tomorrow. I’ve had no email or text to confirm this. Please advise.

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

    @fozia4 @rkelwick @bt_uk Indeed. And when you complain you just get fobbed off? They need to change the law to require a business to honour any service or produce they supply. Especially builders and tradesmen? Seems to be impossible to get them to put right errors they have made?

  • 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.

  • KachiKanu Kachi Kanu (@KachiKanu) reported

    It's been 5 weeks without broadband and @BTGroup has been appalling. I am sitting at home again today waiting for an engineer @bt_uk has cancelled all previous 5 appnts without notice. Horrendous service, multiple failed promises and lack of any ounce of customer care 😡

  • xCeewiz cheesy yogurt slinger (@xCeewiz) reported

    @bt_uk internet has been down for an hour or more now with a orange light ive reset it twice once for 2 seconds and another for 3 mins and it still a solid orange.. fix ur ****

  • AnnaGra65143872 Anne Graham (@AnnaGra65143872) reported

    Suzanne @Bt_uk consumer-non resolution-champion responds to any criticism of her performance but not to any request for information. No evidence that Suzi has done any referral. Her main object and concern throughout is bland generic responses to close me off. Typical.

  • harve020 Kelly Harvey (@harve020) reported

    @bt_uk My parent are having problems with their BT internet email. They are not receiving emails from a number of contacts. They have followed the guidance with regards to ‘settings’ but the screen shot shown on the help does not mirror what they are seeing

  • LucyKeeg Lucy Keegan (@LucyKeeg) reported

    So let down by @bt_uk - making a stressful relocation even more stressful by not being able to compete a simple Home Move to a loyal customer, never giving a straight answer when I call and leaving me on hold for hours 😭😭😭

  • butchershead1 butchershead (@butchershead1) reported

    @RomTogic @bt_uk Get a life .:: ******* idiot , they don’t need that **** and all other woke **** rammed down their throats , let them be children for god sake instead of having to have there heads filled with utter crap

  • Shagan_Gooner Siobhan #wewontakeloans (@Shagan_Gooner) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks for your help today but I am very very disappointed in the service being provided and the fact I am paying for this. A month is simply not good enough!

  • ChrisBr86160815 Chris Briggs (@ChrisBr86160815) reported

    @bt_uk I seem to have entered a twilight zone. I have a Now TV package via BT but there's no details or a cancel option on 'my BT'. Tried calling but no answer

  • AnnaGra65143872 Anne Graham (@AnnaGra65143872) reported

    @bt_uk Consumer-resolutionteam Suzanne Perry tells me she has done a referral to BT Openreach response time 7 days. No copy of referral, no contact details, no idea when the 7 days run from. No confidence it was done and she closes my 'complaint'. Abandoned without resolution.

  • J4GGY_DHILLON Jaggy2k3 (@J4GGY_DHILLON) reported

    @bt_uk @BTSopenreach @OpenreachHelp can you help out. ? There's an exchange 1/4 mile up the road from me on bedford Road in Kempston
