Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

@bt_uk We haven't had internet for the last 3 days, still don't and your customer service has been awful. We all need the internet in the house to work and fulfill tasks but your company just doesn't seem bothered at all.

@btsport Having a few audio issues with the commentary here. A few words are getting garbled and I can’t understand most of what they’re saying. Can you ask Fletcher to take his tongue out of Messi’s arse and that should clear it all up?

@bt_uk having trouble with our home broadband. Have followed your advice on texting a number, but no reply & still the same. Also, can't access own account either, even after pin number for resetting password. Can you please assist? Is there any phone number I can ring? Thanks.

@btsport The worst and toughest customer service experience I’ve ever had. 40 minutes of my life talking to an operator that had got no nearer to resolving my issue. Absolute awful service. Just ordered the monthly package tonight, paid £25. cancelled same night at a £25 loss

@btbusinesscare Oh, you have no idea how much patience I’ve had to excercise with BT for a few years. Improvements seem to made though, sensible call staff recognising a problem straight off, competent engineer sent ASAP. Just need to sort out recurring problem with local telegraph pole!

@Tonysmini @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk It was until last weekend but now it’s flashing. I’m told the issue is that Openreach have the wrong s/n attached to the property and Bt give them the correct one but it doesn’t get updated

@btsport @btsportfootball what I would change in football. Cancel injury time and adopt rugby rules. Clock stops at half time and fulltime and whistle blows when ball out of play.

@bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

@Tonysmini @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk We were supposed to have an engineer visit on the 18 Dec 2020 and that never happened. I asked BT to arrange an engineer last week and they said no need.

@bt_uk I have to say, spoke to someone yesterday, he chased openreach, explained incorrect order had been placed and that was with a team to fix. Said likely to be Monday to be fixed but was sorted this morning. Great work.

@bt_uk Have also swapped out various ethernet cables and sockets to see if that was the problem but it's not that either...

(@DanielM16334247) reported
@bt_uk that doesn't help me nor does it give our bosses a satisfactory answer. Faults happen but taking 2 full days to fix it is ludicrous I understand you have to keep to these lines but as a couple who are struggling even 2 days without work is going to seriously effect us financially

@btsport why am I not able to watch @ufc from last night, its on series record but keeps failing, can't find it on demand either? Why am I paying for your service when I don't get the services I'm paying for?
-
Daniel Mcloughlin
(@DanielM16334247) reported
@bt_uk So both me and my partner are expected to just tell our bosses that? understand that there are complexities but paying for a service that isn't available through no fault of your own isn't acceptable. If we don't work we don't earn money. Times are hard. this needs to be resolved

(@AJSC1991) reported
@bt_uk hi. Your test system must be lying. My internet drops every 5 mins or so. Unusable and I need it for work. I've done the systems so much I know them off by heart. Please fix my issue 😡

(@DanielM16334247) reported
@bt_uk Again I get it but maybe try being a little more personable this doesn't help. Now we're out of 4 days of work between us. We both have desktops and aren't near a hotspot. But I guess thanks.

@bt_uk Ethernet cable won’t reach. I did try it at first and the speeds were also terrible barely made a difference.

@bt_uk 1 week no landline no internet no clear indication on when we will get our service back. Shame the biggest Telecom company unable to fix a problem for over 6 days
