    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @bt_uk hello, I've had an ongoing broadband instability issue for around 6 months - frequently when I'm using IP voice applications the service is disrupted - I've tried to raise a fault on this a number of times - help!!

  • HarrymBarham Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk And people on Twitter may be looking for a new broadband connection and should be aware of the level of service from BT

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

  • John_P_Turner John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    A new development on the BT issue. Had a call following my Tweet from a person @bt_uk apologising for yesterday. Early termination fee waived, apology accepted and relationship restored. Both agreed that this wasn’t the way it should happen but impressed with the resolution.

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris ⚽️ (@Andymorris74) reported from South Shields, England

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk ...... Your wifi is shit

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from South Hetton, England

    @bt_uk Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree Please fix my broadband just for me I've waited now for many days (17 and counting) Many promises fade in the haze Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree Please make my broadband work for me

  • d4rryl23 Darryl Arnett (@d4rryl23) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • andy_gall Andy Gallinagh (@andy_gall) reported

    @bt_uk It was regarding not receiving at least the minimum speed for our broadband and the landline not working. Neither seem to have improved. I was under the impression that someone would visit the house as the operator mentioned that an adult had to be in the property.

  • jmsTalk John McLaren-Stewart ⓥ (@jmsTalk) reported

    Stunning conversation with @bt_uk regarding renewal of contract. Hidden catches, rude, poor & highly pressured salesman (BT - u need get them off commission selling), no time to read the contract just sent over, must sign now. Total lack of customer empathy. #BusinessBroadband

  • sgriffiths72 Sarah Griffiths (@sgriffiths72) reported

    @bt_uk I’m just had my 72 year old mother on the phone in tears. You’ve cut off her wifi & tv whilst waiting for a new contract to switch over on 16th Feb. She’s been told no one can help (by the loyalty team), your customer service is a disgrace. How do we complain & rectify?

  • northernsoul03 Daniel (@northernsoul03) reported

    Hi @EE absolutely no comment from Apple as you can see. I am paying you for a service that doesn’t work. You told me the customer to contact Apple who supply you with these Apple TV devices. @bt_uk don’t reply either. Doesn’t customer service not exist?

  • andy_gall Andy Gallinagh (@andy_gall) reported

    @bt_uk On my account it now says that the estimated fix date it the 28th. I'm guessing work was done externally?!

  • markechung Mark Chung 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 🇮🇪 (@markechung) reported

    @bt_uk fault has finally been fixed & when I asked about compensation your advisor at 1.28pm today he deliberately cut me off when I said I wanted to lodge an official complaint about the amount of compensation he offered. you really are a poor company for #CustomerService

  • Malteasermilly Emily (@Malteasermilly) reported

    @bt_uk so so sick now. 3 months of problems not being resolved. We are giving you one last chance to fix it. If it doesn't ( which I'm 95% sure it won't work) we are leaving you. Such a bad service.

  • farmertj Utterly Tom (@farmertj) reported

    Welp, no internet for 3 weeks during a pandemic where it's become even more of nessacery household service! Thanks @bt_uk 😣

  • nannyf Fiona (@nannyf) reported

    @bt_uk I am@thinking of changing my telephone/broadband to you but I see that on connection day someone has to be at home according to the website. We work all week and only home at weekends but no Saturday appointments available. Please help

  • Malteasermilly Emily (@Malteasermilly) reported

    @aboyd91 @bt_uk Don't do it. It will be the worst mistake you make! We've had 3 months of problems with bt and they still can't get it right. We are leaving them if they cant do it this time
