    @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.

    @bt_uk As a new customer I have been the model of patience that is now growing thin. I did the honourable thing over 5 hours ago and sent you a DM. I am still waiting for an answer. Please no, I know you are busy. @Ofcom

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

  • 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.

  • JohnGubba
    John Gubba (@JohnGubba) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    @bt_uk after 28 years I’ve had to leave #BT for business because of your poor service. Now I’m looking at transfering my personal BT account. Unless you deal with my complaints and do something you have lost another customer

  • 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? 🤔

    Daniel Edwards (@EddieEdwards16) reported from Bracknell, England

    Good work @btsport if ever you were going to have technical issues, save them for w penalty shoot out in a cup final 🙈

  • 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

  • Westofcenter

    .@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.

    @btsport the uefa feed of this match is really poor. Where are the replays? @EuropaLeague #MUNCOP

  • 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?

  • Muzzhar
    Murray Heslin (@Muzzhar) reported from Wokingham, England

    @bt_uk internet going off 10-15 times a day no longer acceptable, especially when you are paying for a premier service, can’t get hold of faults either. Unacceptable!

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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!

    Mark Capstick (@CarmarkMC) reported

    @bt_uk you fail me yet again with a simple house move that you can’t do right!! Customer service none existent, passed from pillar to post, incompetent staff offering something they can’t - the list goes on. Angry is an understatement 🤬🤬

  • littlet363
    Scarlett Conti (@littlet363) reported

    @bt_uk I’m in absolute bits. I’ve had terrible service from you, lies and the actual product is awful. I was missold. Was waiting for all my equipment which took me out of the ‘cooling off’ period by 1 WEEK! And I’m told I can’t cancel even though what you’re offering 1/2

  • MelanieQuinn1
    Mel (@MelanieQuinn1) reported

    @bt_uk Day 2 of my 4hour outage! Don’t tell me it was on while I slept and broke again this morning #StillNotHelpful

  • mcmagnet7
    The Scicillian (@mcmagnet7) reported

    @btbusinesscare been without a phoneline for 3 days now and no 1 seems to be able to tell me why or rectify it on the 458975 times that I've called. No phones means less orders, which means less cash. I'm losing money. Absolutely disgusting way to treat long standing customers

  • larapawson
    Lara Pawson (@larapawson) reported

    3/ Do you think it's OK to leave a couple in their 80s with multiple health problems without a means to call emergency services or their family? @MarcAllera Ripping out their @bt_uk copper line has caused no end of stress, anxiety and huge difficulty for my parents. Why did you?

  • RickScobey
    Rick Scobey (@RickScobey) reported

    Guardian @BusinessDesk - please do a story on how @bt_uk is failing on customer service - we've waited 8 weeks for broadband service to be moved to new house

  • littlet363
    Scarlett Conti (@littlet363) reported

    @bt_uk I thought I had 30 days for the TV service. I want to cancel the TV but keep broadband. What I was promised is not what I got. I’m told I’ve got to pay £300 to get out of my contract. I work for a council… recently just gotten over a huge mental breakdown and illness 2/3

  • bc108
    NPN (@bc108) reported

    @bt_uk Hi BT, your website says no problems in my area, despite Openreach doing emergency work and 4000 homes having no broadband or phones for 2 days

    @bt_uk Having a laugh? Still trying to resolve my issues!!! The worst service I’ve received.

  • MartinAbell17

    @bt_uk idea of customer service is to increase prices without notice and deal with complaints like an irritation. Time to move my broadband to @skytv
