    @bt_uk In which case you need more engineers as a two week replacement time is simply unacceptable. Can you advise how I can make a formal complaint and also claim for the loss of service, as I’m now unable to use the TV package that I’m paying for, for two weeks. Thank you.

    Just watched the brilliant #Greavsie on @btsport - what a player. Even in grainy black and white footage you can see just *how* good he was on horrid, boggy pitches. To come back from the alcoholism showed the strength of character.

    @rantasaurusbex @HelpSheffield @bt_uk We are in Sheffield S26 and this has been an ongoing issue on and off for a few years now. Seems to fix itself then we get a period of constant dropouts 20-30 times a day. We are Sky Broadband but on BT infrastructure in the village so falls to Open Reach to fault find.

    @bt_uk just getting into #Montalbano mood and TV freezes up. Remote control not working so panic stations. Wait a minute we have @FreeviewTV quick switch over and yippee brilliant picture and sound quality. Must use this more often.

    Dave Evans (@rdt_daveevans) reported from Sheffield, England

    @bt_uk This is some of the best customer service I have seen! “Although Plusnet use the same Openreach lines and they can provide an SLT of 80/20...At the moment there is not availability in the BT slots in order to move your SLT to 80/20...” time to give up and switch!

    Great work @btsport wasn’t interested in the first two points of the @MapleLeafs game tonight. Quality of the footage is awful too. Really disappointing.

    @BTGroup @btbusinesscare Thanks but so far we've had naff all help and going through to a help centre where we spend hours on the phone trying to fix a problem you caused with no resolution date or apology doesn't help us.

    @bt_uk Hi. An 81yr old friend just had a landline call and handed it to me as he is quite deaf and I was visiting. A guy claiming to be from BT said there were problems with router and it sounded fake so I hung up

    @WeAreOpenreach OR sent a text this am saying my fault had been FIXED. However, the landline is STILL dead and has been dead since March 10th. I live alone and am a pensioner. @bt_uk @Ofcom Help!

  • OnThe4and

  • JohnB_Rivendell
    John Brett (@JohnB_Rivendell) reported

    @btbusinesscare Since the last 2 updates (8.2.6 & 8.2.7) the app doesn’t work properly. Can do some like speed test and service status but it won’t let me access the hub with my admin password to control WiFi, guest access etc. Fault reporting gets stuck and cycles round to the beginning.

  • TrainDriver1982
    Dwain Driver (@TrainDriver1982) reported

    @bt_uk Can’t believe this. Obvious misdiagnosed as both neighbours and ours routers going down. Now I’ve had an email to say my router is being delivered…. to next door.

  • RAE7S_
    La Pioche 🇵🇸 (@RAE7S_) reported

    @btbusinesscare BT got the worst customer service team, nothing but pure incompetence. I can’t wait to leave

  • QuoSpera
    Lesley Rubenstein-Pessok (@QuoSpera) reported

    @Somerset01 @BTGroup @bt_uk These structures should have something on them to determine ownership and wouldn’t it be great if there was some form of contact info to report vandalism or any damage easily, say, a QR code.

  • Farrowmagic
    Andrew Farrow (@Farrowmagic) reported

    @btbusinesscare Any absolute shambles of a business.. No one taking any responsibility, complaint still going since June 24th !!! 5 months…

    🐕📚 (@jaye_lass) reported

    @bt_uk an engineer visited and said there were no issues in my property but confirmed external issues causing slow connection and frequent connection drops. Escalated to open reach. Heard nothing since and job says closed on MyBT. Will I be refunded for ongoing poor connection?

  • AymsDesigns
    Aymi Duignan (@AymsDesigns) reported

    @btbusinesscare I can’t get through to you on any numbers to cancel. If I try contact to buy something I get through easily but then NO help when I want to cancel
