    @bt_uk Hello! I'm a bit concerned that you guys couldn't see a fault on my line any more a couple of days ago, as I've an engineer coming. It really is slow, but it won't even let me do BT speed test bcs a fault is reported. Can I check whether you think there's still a fault? :)

  • Sharonkuhl Sharon Ducker (was Kuhl) (@Sharonkuhl) reported from Yateley, England

    @bt_uk HELLO AGAIN JUST AN UPDATE WITH MY MOTHERS ON-GOING PHONE ISSUE (& YES I AM SHOUTING) her phone was due to be connected in OCTOBER 2019-various errors by YOU means even after an engineer visit yesterday we are no further forward. MY MUM IS 77 & NEEDS HER HOME PHONE #POOR

  • CllrHelenTaylor Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @bt_uk Thank you but sadly your information seems incorrect as I can categorically tell you it drops several times a day. My husband works from home so it is noticed each time and it always goes down in the evening.

  • Sharonkuhl Sharon Ducker (was Kuhl) (@Sharonkuhl) reported from Yateley, England

    @bt_uk I am amazed that you are still in business, your appalling customer service leaving my parents with no home phone, broadband that is not great, missed engineer appointments and on the wrong tariff and this is on going since OCTOBER, & she still pays u #eldery #vunerable

  • SuperScienceGrl ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported from Bracknell, England

    @bt_uk Hello! I've had a problem: for a year (between first 2 speed tests), my broadband speed was much lower than advertised. I just did another: ok but still seems lower? An engineer confirmed & said I should claim money back for the year & ongoing if still happening.

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    Another day of bad experience with @virginmedia broadband service in RG6 area. Buffering on streaming service, no video calls possible on Skype and WhatsApp. Seriously thinking of switching to @bt_uk

  • vickyclarke76 vicky clarke (@vickyclarke76) reported from Mortimer Common, England

    @bt_uk I have been really disappointed with your service so and have only been with you since December last year. Nothing is ever dealt with when I contact your team! Please can you sort it out?

  • Westofcenter Andy West (@Westofcenter) reported from Lower Shiplake, England

    .@bt_uk are you aware of situations today where scamming calls cause Broadband to go down? Have received two today and both times, caused loss of connection.

  • CllrHelenTaylor Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @bt_uk No we were calling to cancel but had a billing issue first. Seeing as we were cut off we have no idea if the cancellation has been actioned or not?

  • CllrHelenTaylor Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @bt_uk yet another epic fail. 34 minute call, transferred 3 times to the incorrect department, then cut off by the correct department dead on 9pm (home time) and you wonder why we want to cancel? 🤔

  • Cranstead John Allen 🇬🇧🇿🇼 (@Cranstead) reported from Wokingham, England

    NU v CFC BTSport- terrible commentary as per usual. The secret is to keep it simple and not continually talk bollocks....

  • fiddler_mike mikef (@fiddler_mike) reported from Kingsclere, England

    @bt_uk is there a problem with the BT email service at the moment? Cheers

  • RobPercyPhoto Rob Percy (@RobPercyPhoto) reported from High Wycombe, England

    @John_McKee @bt_uk Hi John did you get anywhere with @bt_uk ? I’ve got exactly the same issue no activation until April but sold #hybridconnect as a short term fix before activation. But now I’m staring at a white light and blue signal bars.

  • SuperScienceGrl ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported from Bracknell, England

    @bt_uk Hello! 👋 Apologies this may be a silly query, but I did the auto-fault reporting thing 2 days ago, and it kept alternating between saying it was ok and saying it wasn't, so I just want to check that the slow broadband connection actually did get reported properly? Thanks!

  • SuperScienceGrl ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported from Bracknell, England

    @bt_uk A fix has already been run! I would like to claim for these historical issues separately to trying to fix any persisting ones. Otherwise I'm thinking I might not ever be compensated :) fix already done!

  • jwedwards1 John Edwards (@jwedwards1) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    @bt_uk Any idea when this Broadband outage will be fixed? It’s been over 24 hours now #Marlow

  • shaz_perry Sharon Perry Art (@shaz_perry) reported from Reading, England

    @bt_uk engineer booked for this morning between 8 and 1 to fix slow connection yet hasn't shown up.

  • Mary00oa Marina Yates (@Mary00oa) reported

    3rd engineer claimed he DID came today in the property and was threatened by my dog . He actually reported me . I topped up £10 my other giffgaff number so to allow @WeAreOpenreach employee call me while you’re am on the phone with @bt_uk agent. Today s test show network fault

  • ChrisWill2631 Chris Williams (@ChrisWill2631) reported

    @bt_uk I’m actually so fed up of your shocking service ! You ask me to DM to discuss and then just fob me off with non answers. This is over 10 weeks of incompetence and various members of staff lying constantly

  • TailorWellers George Archibald new⚒ (@TailorWellers) reported

    @bt_uk is there works going on in B23 you haven't warned us about? 3 Kelly vans outside and my WiFI has just gone down mid-video call with a potential client. Still not back on. Some info on the service I pay you for would be lovely.

  • ChrisWill2631 Chris Williams (@ChrisWill2631) reported

    @bt_uk by the way we signed up on 14 January yet you just keep making excuses and staff pretending they have tried to phone. You are an absolute joke and painfully incompetent,6 times you have cancelled something by mistake or wrongly said problem is resolved @Ofcom @BBCWatchdog

  • Mossy55018 Gary Moss (@Mossy55018) reported

    @bt_uk Once again truly awful service - Charging me £62 per month for broadband when new customers can have it way cheaper. Charging me for cloud -didn't know i had it or being charged for it - been holding for 45 mins while someone trys to remove it. This is robbery !

  • C0CO_LISSA CONSTANCE THE HORMONE MONSTRESS 💕🫦😈 (@C0CO_LISSA) reported

    Wi-Fi was off the whole of yesterday and today it’s superrrrr slow. @bt_uk wtf is going on ?! What am I paying for kmttt 😒😒

  • scottpieparker Scott Parker (@scottpieparker) reported

    @bt_uk Complaint has been closed although it hasn’t been resolved. Agent mis-sold broadband—said I wouldn’t be subject to CPI this year due to Mar installation date. Told to go in store to open another? Farcical. Can somebody reach out and solve this with me once and for all?

  • EvLenz MadKraut 🦒🐧 (@EvLenz) reported

    @bt_uk Right... A lady from @BT_Openreach knocked my door about half an hour ago, wanted to look at my socket. Said she needed to check the signal and would be back in about 20 minutes. I now have a socket for broadband/landline hanging off my wall and no sign of her coming back.

  • CoolPasty Adam Baker (@CoolPasty) reported

    @bt_uk moving your speed test to app only is ridiculous. I am a pc user mainly and want to test my connection on pc. Your advice also used to say use a wired connection as it eliminates potential problems with wifi. I don’t get your logic.

  • aicodingharis NP Haris (@aicodingharis) reported

    @bt_uk Can you please ask your customer support head to call BT Business support and book a socket shift as a customer? I feel that mostly he will resign by himself.
