BT (British Telecom) Outage in Welwyn, Hertfordshire, England

If all goes according to plan my new phone line will have taken 3 months not the usual 15 working days from time of order, HELP! @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp @MoneyTelegraph

@bt_uk Hi. When it drops it goes red to green to blue. It looks like the speed is slowly handshaking its way down to zero. Every drop restarts and lowers the speed

@btbusinesscare @btbusinesscare Your fault number 10763322 / complaint number: IMP-104593642. No telephone / broadband since Saturday evening (almost 70 hours now), your service sucks. Hope this message reaches your CEO Mr Gerry McQuade. You charge £1500/month for fibre optic broadband, its scam

@StarWarsSession @btsport Trying the BT Sport app. YouTube stream is piss poor.

I thought listening to Andy Walker on @skysports was bad but OMG @btsport Mcmanaman 🙄 mute on I think

Peter Walton as lamentable as a pundit as he was as a referee. Awful. @btsport @btsportfootball

@AndyhHolt @btsport @EmiratesFACup Better than 6pm Sunday. not overly bad for Luton fans if we win the replay but for Sheff Wed fans not good. Bottom line 6pm on a Sunday is not a natural time for a football match

@btsport is there a mute button to cut out Steve Mc’manaman’s constant droning & slagging of arsenal. He is suppose to be neutral when commentating surely. All he does is poke at the Gunners.... get him off

Poor old Jake Humphrys won’t get his FA Cup upset tonight #BTSport#THFC

Could the fast fingered notifier at @SkySports please slow down because I get the notification about 15 seconds faster than the @btsport feed. #COYS #TRATOT

McManaman is awful. Talks 💩💩. So bias #btsport #CHAMPIONSLEAGUE

@LouMacari10 @btsport @ManUtd And they think it's bad now 😎

Well #BT @BTCare we now have no internet at all even when our hub shows blue the speed and signal is so weak we cannot do anything. It’s outrageous that we have to go out to get a bit of wi-fi.

@bt_uk @BTCare All very well you launching Plus, our BT wi-fi broke on 14/09/18 and you STILL cannot fix it 😡get your existing products up and running before you launch extras.

@BTCare To fix a fault. The worst thing is that on both occasions (Friday and today) nobody contacted me to say the appointment was cancelled, I had to call you. The one thing I will say is the people on the phone have been very professional. Sadly @bt_uk and @WeAreOpenreach are not.

@BTCare The point is that we have been talking to your teams & the service has been bad. Maybe use your initiative by offering support & compensation on the phone to these people.

@BTCare FYI I’m getting more spam calls today from 08817506357 claiming to be from the BT call blocking department... when questioned about what the employees EIN was he put the phone down!

@TheSqueeze80 @btsport That was so annoying. Need to know wtf Ferguson was saying

Anyone else having an issue with @btsport forcing you to buy their landline to watch the fight later? Just want PPV

@BTCare Lucky you. I must get a job with BT to get all that time to call BT customer service. Unfortunately, as a customer, I don't have so much time to enjoy your playlist

It’s now 2 weeks to the day our wi-fi went down and we still only have intermittent wi-fi. Even when it’s on only max speed of 34. Very poor, waiting on a filter to arrive , just hope this fixes it #BT @BTCare

Well we were thrilled to get our wi-fi up and running on Friday but alas it just will not connect to our Samsung tv. Despite all the resolutions given by @BTCare the issue seems unsolvable. BT forums suggest Samsung TVs do not connect to hub 6

@BTCare If we could get some idea of when it would help. You do not seem to understand just how important the internet is for us.

I think when I joked we would be lucky to have internet by Christmas, it was not such a joke after all. They say they will try to fix by this Friday. Why do I have no confidence this will actually happen? @BTCare

@BTCare is there a problem at the Welwyn Garden City exchange? BTinternet keeps dropping out and is very slow. My business broadband account over a separate BT Phone line is even slower.

@bt_uk @BTCare I’ve had two calls today from 01261397285 & 01361972465 claiming to be BT telling me that my internet is infected and I need to give them details to fix. Sounds like a #scam #nuisancecalls

@virginmedia My issue with @btsport has been “under investigation” for the last two weeks. Calls to the UK, India and the Philippines and no one has an answer. Can someone please for help me?

My iPad and phone are having an issue with btinternet, but it’s working fine on my MacBook. Is anyone else having a problem @BTCare?

@BTCare 1/2 Hi Dale. You are the 3rd or 4th team member to respond so some info may not be showing. Signal keeps dropping. No obvious reason why. My phone doesn’t automatically connect to WiFi even though it is set to do so.

@BTCare It’s working but my issue is that the signal keeps dropping and I regularly have to reboot it. Also my iPhone X no longer automatically connects. That shouldn’t be happening. So what tests can we carry out to establish what’s causing the issue.

@adamstokes1992 @BTCare I’ve already told them they are in breach of GDPR. It doesn’t seem to register with them. I’ve had enough of their sheer incompetence. Been a BT customer for 28 years. That’s about to come to an abrupt end.

@BTCare internet still down in Hemel Hempstead :( any news?

@BTCare Thanks @BTCare had dreadful service with you as well, so maybe not

@BTCare Cool that's what I was after. What are my options if they refuse to cancel the cease order? I just can't have internet because someone who doesn't live at the property says I can't?

@BTCare The order is open but you were unable to take over the line because the previous tenants placed a cease order dated October 25th. Surely if the line is active I should get their service through it?

@BTCare Spoke to order management as soon as they opened. Previous tenants are keeping the line active until November despite my order. My router won't work because it's not suitable for fibre. Reckon you could send us a fibre router so I have some sort of service in the meantime?

@BTCare Please help! I’m trying to do a really simple thing on my BT account and it’s proving impossible both online and “live” (I’ve been on your web site and holding for an advisor for hours). It really is extraordinarily frustrating.

@BTCare @SkyUK @MotoGP No. I've been having issues with it for a long time. It isn't recording on Sky either.

@BTCare my bt whole home keeps renaming devices. Any fix for this or do I have to keep comparing mac address?

@BTCare Still no LAN or Wifi this morning. I don’t care what your status thing says, there is clearly an issue. Please fix ASAP. In your contract you guarantee a LAN service at all times - so you’re breaching that at the moment...

@BTCare Live in a village, so have very poor signal and 4G. Can’t open link. If it’s still down tomorrow, I’ll call again and also ask how I can lodge a formal complaint? Thanks.

@Matthias_FC @BTCare Arrghhhh! It worked for a couple of hours this afternoon but now it's down again.

@BTCare Sadly the status page shows the fault from my landline number, but then gets me to login to my account which then says no fault. Can't you lookup SG6 to see what's going on?

@BTCare It tells me I have an open fault and that somebody else has reported problems that have been fixed. Speaking to my neighbours though it seems there is a larger outage in Letchworth.

@BTCare Broadband faults in Letchworth (SG6). Can you provide more info on issue and ETA for a fix?

@powerportraits @PriskMark @BTCare @plusnethelp @Plusnet I agree David. Unless they have installed specific kit in your house, I’m guessing “monitoring your connection” means checking your sync speed. I continuously sync at 40/10 despite the issues in the evenings / weekends. I feel they are choosing to misunderstand the issue!

@scotbaston @Mrs_Bob_Here @bt_uk All fixed line broadband services run off the same Openreach network unless you are a Virgin customer. The only difference is the price and the customer service you receive.

@skybluesam @btsportufc @btsport I never paid...be careful who u call a fool until u know the facts 👍🏻

Still wondering @BTCare @bt_uk I have been a customer of yours for almost 6 years now. And I have always complained about my internet connection just recently it has dropped so much that we can't even use Netflix... been told an engineer is going to fix the issue by friday

@RiemaBelam @bt_uk Don't trust them they told me that I'm on day 6 with no internet or phone service. #nothappy

@bt_uk so 1 week after I was supposed to have bt broadband connected I'm now told it will be wednesday. Not impressed as a new customer. Looking at some tweets on here maybe should have stayed with sky. #badcustomerservice

@energywnl @bt_uk Internet just cut out I. My area thank god it’s back up so I don’t miss tourney lmfao

@bt_uk utter crap, don’t do it

@kitcudi1 @bt_uk ikik i get 20 ping min but it spikes so often id rather have 50 consistent than randomly spike from 20 to 150 like wtf

@bt_uk have cancelled the direct debit, let me know when you can provide the service you promised and I will reinstate it minus the disrupted days #crapservice @BBCWatchdog @WhichTraders

Also blamed @WeAreOpenreach for an upgrade that’s “obviously” gone south and as such is not a @bt_uk problem. It’s an @OpenreachHelp and the clients problem. On a bank holiday weekend.
