    IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR BROADBAND , DO NOT GO WITH @bt_uk !! THE WORST COMPANY EVER!!! Been waiting at my flat since 8am, only to call up and find out the appointment was not booked correctly !!! Everyone that works at @bt_uk clearly have an IQ of a toddler.

  • dpmunn19 daniel munn (@dpmunn19) reported from Aveley, England

    I am so gutted I can’t watch @WestHam all thanks to @btsport and @EE when I pay £15 a month for a service and now I can not log in because my BT ID no longer works and get told I have to wait 72 hours for it to be sorted. Absolute Joke. 😡😡😡😡

  • TalieDelemere talie (@TalieDelemere) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk hi there, I need to send my old BT box back and I'm getting reminders about it but I've never had the box/envelope whatever sent to me to do that

  • Secrethamper Secret Hamper ™ (@Secrethamper) reported from Tolleshunt Major, England

    Hi @bt_uk our phone lines are down yet again, the 3rd time in as many weeks and 1-4 days to fix… this is our busiest time of year and we are missing lots of potential business which is costing us dearly

  • Glo_Thienel Glo Thienel (@Glo_Thienel) reported from Allhallows, England

    Hi @bt_uk @BTCare Big shout out to Garry. Excellent service, after losing Landline L & Broadband on 25thOctober, due to cables being stolen, whole village and area out. He has stay with this issue until reconnection He has called me today to confirm refund to A/C 👍 #Excellence

  • MarionPettet Marion Pettet 💙 (@MarionPettet) reported from Kelvedon Hatch, England

    Thank you @bt_uk for helping me. It seems that I wasn't correct as they resolved the issue within their time frame & I wasn't entitled. (The wording could be clearer though.) They also compensated me for a missed visit. I apologize.

  • theessexsog Mike Miners (@theessexsog) reported from Billericay, England

    @bt_uk will complaint VOL013-599112566910 make me the unhappiest BT broadband customer ever or do I have to add all my other complaints to win?

  • RetrogamesNow Roly's Arcade (@RetrogamesNow) reported from Brentwood, England

    @BTCare we are at our wits end with your customer service. You continually cancel our appointments as you say our service is fixed but it’s INTERMITTENT! And you have already admitted it’s a terrible service, and every weekend regular as clockwork you cancel our next engineer!

  • Verscuse 🏳️‍🌈 James 🏳️‍🌈 (@Verscuse) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Hmm... There's various things you can try to see if it on your network or the actual connection

  • Verscuse 🏳️‍🌈 James 🏳️‍🌈 (@Verscuse) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Perhaps a device or person on your network is using it heavily at this point?

  • MarionPettet Marion Pettet 💙 (@MarionPettet) reported from Kelvedon Hatch, England

    When you're supposed to get compensation for a missed appointment or service why do we have to "claim" it & why is the "claim" window time limited? Perhaps @bt_uk can explain, especially as they boast about it.

  • Glo_Thienel Glo Thienel (@Glo_Thienel) reported from Allhallows, England

    Hi @BTCare Please check DM need help on confirmation of new upgrade done on Sunday, not showing on account

  • Cover4Caravans Richard Burgess (@Cover4Caravans) reported from Billericay, England

    Why am I surprised? Online account with @btsport I can do anything other than cancel my account! At £36 a month we don’t think is good value but they make it so difficult to cancel. Shame the FCA don’t regulate them!

  • bethanchloes Bethan Chloe (@bethanchloes) reported from Billericay, England

    @bt_uk do not understand the mental stress they are causing with incorrectly charging me over triple the amount they should every month. 0 help from customer services or complaints. Where do I go from here?

  • kiekyobadeo KX (@kiekyobadeo) reported from London, England

    For a company that prides themselves as Europe’s largest telecoms service provider, @bt_uk have the most lousy customer service team in history! If I go into detail on what I’ve been through!! All because of one master socket install. Which mind you still hasn’t been resolved.

  • DanHarvey74 Harvs (@DanHarvey74) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @GaryLineker @btsport Is that your "bad" toe?

  • Glo_Thienel Glo Thienel (@Glo_Thienel) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hi @bt_uk Please check DM need help on confirmation of new upgrade done on Sunday, not showing on account

  • Lochlanndg Lochlann (@Lochlanndg) reported from London, England

    @SkySports really haven’t got the hang of the recap option like @btsport have - when I click on the red card incident I want to see what happened, not just the referee waving the card…

  • adekoya_k MISS OLUBUNMI (@adekoya_k) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk I have no Wi-Fi, so, I literally cannot watch anything on TV or on my tablet. My so called Halo Hub, just keeps flashing orange. When I called BT, I was told that BT closes at 20:00 🕗 on Saturday’s. Are you not supposed to be open 24 hours to solve problems like these?

  • kelly20201983 Kelly 💙 (@kelly20201983) reported from South Ockendon, England

    @bt_uk when will service be resumed in South ockendon?

  • GrumpyMathTeach 𝔸𝕟𝕘𝕣𝕪 𝕄𝕒𝕥𝕙𝕤 𝕋𝕖𝕒𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕣 (@GrumpyMathTeach) reported

    @robotmaths It’s legal but it’s stupid. Can’t wait for my 15% increase with @O2 and @bt_uk coming up this April. I assume they’ll be paying their staff 15% more as well?

  • WriterADHay Amelia (Author A. D. Hay) (@WriterADHay) reported

    @bt_uk We supposedly have fibre, but that's just to the box down the road. So, that was misleading.

  • WriterADHay Amelia (Author A. D. Hay) (@WriterADHay) reported

    @bt_uk Why is your broadband upload and download speeds in my area so terrible? It's no better than tethering. I've been a customer for years, and the service has worsened as the years tick by. It's been almost a week, and we have an upload speed of less than 4 mb.

  • Nimsically Nirmala (@Nimsically) reported

    @btbusinesscare New packages, with £40 overdue payment charges being applied each month, even though I’ve paid for one of the packages. Great at selling products, pity about the total incompetence in customer service…

  • laser_tronic laser_tronic (@laser_tronic) reported

    @bt_uk What is the issue? It will be 5 days if that’s the date of it being fixed.

  • nickbaxter82 Nick Baxter (@nickbaxter82) reported

    @bt_uk Yep. Anyway I’ve managed to get someone to sort it out and cancel now. Suffice to say I won’t be renewing

  • ella_andsharks els 🖤 (@ella_andsharks) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @btsport @btsportwwe can someone help me get this refunded as we can’t seem to watch it through our sky box????

  • Kate_Bod Kate *** (@Kate_Bod) reported

    @bt_uk hello, we have left our flat & are inbetween properties. I’ve had 2 long phone chats with you about reconnecting us when we move but it was never explained that we’d be billed for this interim period. Just received a bill despite having no phone line & hub in storage. 😨

  • JonnieParkin Jonnie Parkin (tofu eating wokerati) (@JonnieParkin) reported

    A few months back a very pushy 'customer services' operative persuaded me 2 move my @bt_uk mobile account early to a 'near identincal' but sim only package with @EE. He failed 2 mention the £2 a day roaming charge I'm now incurring while in France. I'll be leaving EE on my return

  • Dorset_Viking PoliticallyHomeless (@Dorset_Viking) reported

    @btsport I am a subscriber and the service stopped working over night, so no, that condescending response did not help. #IPC6007 #BT
