    @bt_uk so my internet goes down on NYE of all days and your ‘helpdesk’ is closed. what an absolute shambles!!

  • martinc1970
    Martin Chamberlain (@martinc1970) reported from Stone, England

    @bt_uk Direct debit cancelled. I don't see why I should pay my bill when you've got no interest in fixing my broadband or even providing me with a service or update within 50 days. You should be paying me compensation too.

    @minxhoney @EE @bt_uk @MartinSLewis @EE love to give you the spill even in the shop, then when you get your first bill realise it’s a load of rubbish. Happened to me twice now. I will be leaving @ee when my contract is up now. Been a customer for about 20 years.

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @bt_uk virgin your broadband service in waltham Abbey is disgraceful, even though we have complained you fail to resolve my problems, and are no delivering on your own contract terms. I want this resolved or released frommy contract @poppy_tompkinsx

  • martinc1970
    Martin Chamberlain (@martinc1970) reported from Stone, England

    @bt_uk Working broadband on main router or mini hub would be nice for a change. This is nothing short of breach of contract. In this day and age how can it take 50+ days to sort a problem with no proper explanations of what's wrong. I'm cancelling ASAP

    @AdamPlom @btsport I can’t get through to them either... of you cancel the DD and don’t pay they just cancel ALL your services. I have WiFi with BT otherwise would do it.

    @bt_uk disgusting service for new customers. My grandparents who are in their 70/80’s ordered newest bt tv product a few weeks back ahead of them moving house. Only to find bt turned up at old address despite being told of new address and now refusing to come round TIL tues

    @John_Hartford I remember watching the fight but I don't remember that and BTSport cancel swearing most of the time.

    @BTCare your broadband service is a joke. I've had days where my MBPS has been 0.37 then in the evening 12.08 MBPS then 2 hours later 2.58. As soon as I can I'm leaving this contract s it's certainly not what I signed up for.

    I only subscribe to @btsport to watch football so I may as well cancel my subscription and reconsider again in a few months.

  • JackHorrey
    Jack Horrey (@JackHorrey) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @btsport Hi,I am trying to freeze my £25 subscription but can’t reach anyone on the phone. My login details bring up my EE account which is free and I want to talk about my BT one. Help please!!

  • stuart_dew
    stuart dew (@stuart_dew) reported from Rochford, England

    So @btsport take my money, send me a million emails about taking my money but can’t log in to watch the UFC tonight or find anyone to help me. Proper shit show.

    @bt_uk We're having to reboot router to get things working. Twice today. Yesterday evening there was an issue too and... It's too frequent and doesn't match with the WiFi guarantee

    Laura Tomlinson (@Laurelwreath91) reported

    @bt_uk My phone and Wi-Fi have now been down for 13 days because the wire between the telegraph pole and the house has snapped. Between me and my mother we have called 8 times and you are still refusing to send an engineer. Can we get this sorted please?

  • Corbo12Ian
    Ian Corbishley (@Corbo12Ian) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk BT sent me a new router for Digital Voice. Set up and b/band and tv are fine but even though my phone is plugged into new router the phone (fairly new) doesn’t work at all. We live in a new build and have FTTP with a Huawei box that the phone was plugged into. Any ideas on a fix?

  • Essexisgreat
    Sue Taylor FRSA (@Essexisgreat) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk I received a letter with the date of the switch over. It happened with no issues, the sound is clearer, but in a power cut I would have no phone. They ask you to let them know if you do not have a mobile as backup.

  • AnneWareham
    Anne Wareham (@AnneWareham) reported

    @mm0jxi @paullewismoney @bt_uk And no emergency calls for those of us with no mobile signal.

  • Rivermansky63
    Alex M (@Rivermansky63) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk Same as Virgin, my mobile phone flags them as spam so I've blocked the number. The irony is I have my landline and Internet with them. They never call on that line...

  • LeckyRichard
    Richard Lecky-Thompson (@LeckyRichard) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk BT are planning to beach the OFCOM guidelines that they signed up to by not providing adequate backup in case of power cuts. 1 hour backup is not enough of you don't have mobile signal in your house. It is unclear if elderly alarm systems will work.

  • mm0jxi
    John Innes (@mm0jxi) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk Your analogue phone will be turned off, then you plug the phone into the BT hub (the socket will be covered by a sticker) then phone service will resume as VoIP. There's no going back, the exchanges are end of life and being taken out of service

  • stjdunn
    Simon Dunn (@stjdunn) reported

    @bt_uk I’d like to email someone to recognise some great customer service I received today, but can’t see how I do this. Please can you DM me an email address to send this to? It was a broadband engineer. Thanks.

  • paullewismoney
    Paul Lewis (@paullewismoney) reported

    So BT @bt_uk are now cold calling me about the switch to Digital Voice. As with all cold calls I assume it is from a thief and hang up. What happens if I don't confirm I accept the 'upgrade' to Digital Voice which will mean a new handset and no phone during power cuts?

  • imexdanny
    Danny Hughes (@imexdanny) reported

    Shocking customer service from @bt_uk On hold for 40+ minutes only to be transferred and then then another 20+ minutes before the line hung up cos they finish at 9pm
