    @bt_uk Your Eiva agent is painfully slow! I am forced to call you. I will call you tomorrow. My Mrs now has to wear a filling in her tooth that she has to replace regularly. She can never bite an apple again.

    @norfolkbirdtour @bt_uk Surely Labour is far more expensive than a bit of cable .... so put cheap crap in and when it fails come back and do it again .... senseless

  • sgfmann
    George Mann (@sgfmann) reported from Ilford, England

    @bt_uk I was turned down when I wanted to negotiate, I was charged £85 for broadband and BT sport for three years. I was told “you agreed the price tough”. As I said due to family issues my eye wasn’t on the detail. Closed my BT account over a year ago, never will return.

  • 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. 😡😡😡😡

  • DartfordTown
    Dartford Town (@DartfordTown) reported from Dartford, England

    Well I'm sure we were grateful to be able to see the Slough v Dartford game but the live feed was a bit shoddy by @btsport and @SportsRadar. The commentary was OK but the lack of info before the game and numerous losses in transmission were poor. Let's hope it's better next week.

    @bt_uk I've never seen a promotional tweet backfire so badly. Every single reply is negative, slating BT

    @bt_uk Two days ago, told that someone would come today from 8-1 but no one turned up and we got a text full of grammatical errors saying that the next update would be on Monday 🙃 it will be 2 and half weeks by then. It’s unacceptable.

    @bt_uk hi there, is the BT broadband network compromised in the Carshalton/Wallington area? Unusually poor internet today!

    @bt_uk my BT Sport app on Xbox makes my TV go to a black screen whenever I load it, how do I fix this? I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but hasn’t worked

    @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?

  • KerenOrient
    Keren Harrison ⚽️ (@KerenOrient) reported from Brentwood, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to Smart Hub 2. After logging out of website and back in its managed to get back into the stream now but having wanted to watch a 90 mins football match pretty peeved that we missed most of 2nd half due to poor broadband 🤯 and we lost 🤬

  • 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!

  • LeightonStoane
    Leighton Stoane (@LeightonStoane) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @bt_uk your email service was poor to begin with. Since the update it's almost non-functioning. I pay you handsomely for monthly broadband and you charge me extra for 'premium' mail which barely works. Why?

  • Dhammadinna
    Dhammadinna (@Dhammadinna) reported from Poplar, England

    @bt_uk I talked to BT re changing the account holder, who had died. Was told needed new contract, credit check, but no loss of service. Cut off that night told not connected for 10 days! People work from home! Help!

  • ThomasGrundy3
    Tom Grundy (@ThomasGrundy3) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @bt_uk can’t believe how bad the customer service has been with BT. No internet for two weeks, tried to end contact and was told to pay £350 to do so. Absolutely shocking!

    @bt_uk Tried this and they say they now need 3 more days to resolve phone line being down. Really poor service and unacceptable.

  • Krisp06
    Trevor Chenery (@Krisp06) reported

    @countrymousie @btbusinesscare I wouldn't have thought so. You can keep your landline but you would need to move it -eventually - to a 'digital supplier' when the line service finally ends. However, I checked with Dr Google & his Elves & they made the following points which sound like very good news. "Starlink does not directly provide a traditional copper landline service, but it can fully replace one as part of the UK PSTN switch-off by supporting Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. You can keep your existing phone number and handset by using a VoIP adapter connected to the Starlink router, suitable for replacing old copper lines. How it Works: Starlink provides high-speed internet, allowing you to use third-party VoIP providers (e.g., Plexatalk, Premitel) to make calls via your internet connection. Requirements: You will need a VoIP Analogue Telephone Adapter (ATA) to plug your existing telephone handset into the Starlink Wi-Fi router. Suitability: VoIP over Starlink is ideal for rural areas where copper is being removed, offering sufficient speed and reliability.Alternatives: If you do not wish to use VoIP, you may look at mobile phone-based solutions, which are also often used when replacing old copper lines. As the UK moves towards a digital-only network by 2027, switching to a VoIP service via a broadband connection like Starlink is a common solution." You need to find & check it al lout with a good IT man to help you through the key steps & stages. You may also need to invest in new telephone hand sets around your house to replace your old BT ones. You won't need wires to connect them, it all works digitally through the air.

    @bt_uk Why are you holding me to a contract you can’t even provide the service for ?!

  • Tubularswells
    Tubularswells (@Tubularswells) reported

    @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp unacceptable 7+ day broadband outage. Newborn at home, baby monitor offline, clear vulnerability risk. Already diagnosed fault. Need urgent escalation, 4G backup and review for full fibre upgrade. Considering switching provider.

    @bt_uk I’ve been trying to cancel a line for 8 weeks. You still haven’t done it. Absolutely disgraceful useless service. BT is probably the worst conglomerate in the UK

    Sam R (@maz558) reported

    @bt_uk VERY disappointing with the service from your agents! I phoned as I wanted to take my service with me when I moved. Told I needed to take a new contract - 20% more expensive than current one. Told I would have to wait a week without broadband. Then lied to me!
