  • gemlids gemma liddell (@gemlids) reported from Guide Post, England

    @bt_uk absolutely disgusted in service from BT .. my dad had a brand new roof fitted yesterday and BT open reach came out for an issue with their neighbour!! A new bracket has been fit to my parents house , damaged new roof and broken wire taped together !! Disgusting

  • WASNAPPER Martin (@WASNAPPER) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    2 days on & off now sitting listening to crap music. Not by choice but trying to report another fault to @plusnethelp service used to be good but garbage since @bt_uk got involved

  • 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!

  • baldymanali Alastair Smith (@baldymanali) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk just received email from you saying my email will be suspended if I don't login. I read emails on your new (and I might say, useless) ap every day. Have complained about it previously. Get it sorted

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk And I NEVER get 4g. Lucky to get 3g!

  • 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 🤬

  • shahanchowdhury Shahan Chowdhury™ © (@shahanchowdhury) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk My phone network is EE

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • heatherpott heather potts (@heatherpott) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk please can you respond to my complaint ASAP #poorcustomerservice

  • glne12 gary littlemore (@glne12) reported from Longbenton, England

    Terrible @btsport sort it out

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk The most inept company in the UK, call yourselves a communications company ! you couldn’t connect dots on a dot to dot child sheet let alone connect a new build property, customer for over 29 years! useless

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk Do you think you could address the problem of your BTtv EPG in relation to entries by @DiscoveryUK. Entries misleading in time, length of prog, capital letters, no synopsis and unable to "record the series". Do you care?

  • 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????

  • unclenobheadCB Philip Robinson (@unclenobheadCB) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Fully subscribed to @btsport for several years now but I refuse to watch another @NUFC **** show! #bruceout #EVENEW

  • 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 👏

  • KRISKROS5 Kris Kross (@KRISKROS5) reported from Blyth, England

    BT commentator- “ you have to get it on target or you will not trouble the keeper or make him make a mistake” fantastic awareness.... #newcry #btsport #NUFC

  • 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.

  • JulieGal1234 Julie Gallagher (@JulieGal1234) reported from Longbenton, England

    @bt_uk internet has been on and off all day. You say nothing wrong with the line but a quick search says loads of people having problems with their internet.

  • QlikStu Stuart Wannop (@QlikStu) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to fibre 500, getting 120mbps on average. Slower than my previous BT package. Been told speed cannot be accurately measured into my hub. Still in cooling off period anything else I can try before I cancel it ?

  • GemLou686 Gem (@GemLou686) reported

    @bt_uk I did that ages ago and nothing has been done. The school down the road where my daughter attends are really struggling due to the broadband also! It needs sorting even if just for them.

  • master_ov Ov (@master_ov) reported

    @btbusinesscare 1 hour in and it’s been the slowest service and nothing has been sorted... very disappointed by BT

  • CannNicola Nicola Mc Cann (@CannNicola) reported

    @bt_uk is there any possibility that the credit I am meant to have on my account is actually applied. 3rd bill and 3 customer representatives later all with the guarantee that it will be sorted.... it hasn’t

  • DrChemistryEmz Emma (@DrChemistryEmz) reported

    @bt_uk Contract has started or not even when the service hasn’t been fully connected. Nobody minds the delay, I definitely don’t, but the poor engineers having to tell me 25 minutes before my appointment isn’t fair on them.

  • theharte Paul Harte (@theharte) reported

    @janexwaldorf @MarcAllera @bt_uk ... and they call themselves a ‘communications’ company !? They are absolutely awful to deal with.

  • Desirodave Dave 🏳️‍🌈 (@Desirodave) reported

    @bt_uk No - iv removed the service Will try again in a month or so

  • spanishboat Jason Elliott (@spanishboat) reported

    @bt_uk Update: When did BT looss thier way? Not remotely customer centric. I've cancelled the order as BT will not simply turn on the copper Broadband as requested. They have goverment quota's to fill at the expense of the consumer.

  • Laird_McDonald Simon McDonald (@Laird_McDonald) reported

    @bt_uk @MarcAllera absolutely appalling service from @bt_uk a broadband & tv package that should have been cancelled in August last year and another direct debit just taken Do you ever listen to your customers?

  • PolkawNHS PolkawNHS (@PolkawNHS) reported

    @bt_uk Hi . To be honest @virginmedia picked up the phone first so we have now booked in the service with them. Let’s see how this one will go...

  • JaneJjmack Jane Mackenzie (@JaneJjmack) reported

    @virginmedia still waiting for info on how to cancel my service you’re ignoring me. Customer service appalling. Transferring to @bt_uk at end of month. You need to support me to cancel with you
