  • 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!

  • 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?

  • HartTrippy John Tripp (@HartTrippy) reported from Yateley, England

    @bt_uk do you have issues with email spam filters? Inbox full of rubbish 😐

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

    @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

  • Easters86 Ian East (@Easters86) reported from Didcot, England

    @bt_uk Is broadband down in OX11 postcode area?

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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 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

  • karlos437 karl matthews (@karlos437) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    Volume on #btsport3 is **** sort it out @bt_uk #Everton #leeds

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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? 🤔

  • Sarcastit Sarcastit©️ (@Sarcastit) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks Steph, appreciate that but I’ve spent hours with loyalty & billing and nothing can be done to reduce costs for a 30 year customer.

  • MikeGRT93 Mike Thompson (@MikeGRT93) reported

    Another day, another @bt_uk **** up. 3 hours I’ve been on Live Chat now. After being double charged. Bit bored of this now.

  • Burns06Burns Morag Burns (@Burns06Burns) reported

    @bt_uk absolutely worst customer service I have experienced. Nobody will call me back when promised. Issues ongoing for months. Cannot get this resolved.

  • lilmissdebs Debbie Johnston (@lilmissdebs) reported

    incredible in this age of technology that @bt_uk customer service line can’t advise wait time, place in queue or have a call back facility. Currently on hold 43 mins, not great service at all!

  • topmarriner Joe Marriner (@topmarriner) reported

    @bt_uk So anyone reading this in the High Wycombe near town and having issues, the street level equipment (junction box) was involved in a car accident hence we are offline, its only taken 2 phone calls and an online chat this very helpful tweet to get that info

  • GCAT1717 Greg (@GCAT1717) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Fantastic. And I’m sure SKY’s database can see what the problems are in High WYcombe and then SKY can update all their users on what’s happening, why it’s taking so long to fix, and why they aren’t helping their customers the way @bt_uk are? @SteveBakerHW

  • dicko888 dicko88 (@dicko888) reported

    @bt_uk I dont know if you can help but really who do i complain to instead of having to call the same old number 0330 1234 150 on an existing order/complaint/issue - Had l known how much l have to do to sort out a BT issue i would have used another provider... Anyone else agree ???

  • dicko888 dicko88 (@dicko888) reported

    @bt_uk I am wanting to know why I took the day off only to be told the engineer wasn’t coming, well after the event and this despite getting a text asking me how it was and whether it’s been fixed. 2 months and still counting for BT to sort this issue out. Sounds familiar to others ??

  • Childs4Shirley Shirley Childs (@Childs4Shirley) reported

    @bt_uk Not happy that I had to hold on for 45 mins to talk to customer services about a fault on my dad's landline. When I got through I still couldn't get an update on the problem.

  • foxtonm Joyce (@foxtonm) reported

    @bt_uk Still nearly £64 per month for broadband on that link! I’ve been a BT customer for 40 years so very disappointed that this is the best you can do.
