    @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

    @BritishTelecom your service has become crap after #ReadingFestival has started. Stop stealing my data and streaming #pissedoff @btsport because there’s no actual #bt trying to watch a film and constant interruptions

    @btsport hi I’ve been trying to contact bt customer services on the phone a few times to cancel my bf sport package but can’t get through (been on hold 3 times for 30 mins+ and keeps cutting off). Please can someone get in touch urgently to help. Thanks

    James Parker (@PF_BootCamp) reported from Reading, England

    @bt_uk @KeoghanB @btsport Too late i was forced to watch a crap re run on YouTube today... obviously knowing the result. Absolutely zero help after many hours repeating my self on chat support, here and email. There is clearly a problem and nothing was done. I’ve screen shot convos to take this higher

    Darryl Still (@daxvondrac) reported from Wooburn, England

    @btsport please sack Peter Walton now. The guy is a complete an absolute moron and backs up everything that is bad about VAR. all 4 pros in the studio know it so please do not give the **** airspace. Its pathetic.

    @UglyBear_ @bt_uk @skytv @btsport @BBCNews @SkyNews All rubbish, if our gas and electric and water run on the same service there would be uproar as it supposed to be the fourth utility service!!

  • tommaskell
    Tom Maskell (@tommaskell) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    Terrible service @bt_uk - I phone to report a series of scam calls purporting to be from you.... Get through to your nuisance phone calls dept only to have the call terminated.

    David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported from Reading, England

    @PhelanHill @bt_uk @virginmedia If it works it's brilliant but if it doesn't @virginmedia 's Customer Service is woeful in my experience (and @GBRChris_A 's) Currently even with all the people working at home it is good @ 200 Mbps !

  • 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.

  • pumps1000
    Ian Reynolds (@pumps1000) reported from Reading, England

    @bt_uk The issue is that you charge customers for a service. A service which allows scammers access to your system. I would have been happy to give up the line for a token gesture. You try blocking 80 calls an hour!

  • pinners888
    Pinners (@pinners888) reported from Wokingham, England

    @btsport what’s going on. Why can’t I watch PSG game yet have to listen to pundits banging on about the Chelsea performance. WTF!

  • HenryJ489
    Henry Johnson (@HenryJ489) reported from Kingsclere, England

    @bt_uk Yes the password finally came in the post after several phone calls and hours on hold. Thanks for getting back to me, but the process can’t be good if it takes months to reply and it takes a moody complaint through twitter to get a response.

    Prattle (@Prattle16) reported from Woodley, England

    @btsportmotogp @btsport do@you realise the level of disappointment & frustration you’ve introduced to my household this weekend by totally c***ing up the coverage? Worst part as I understand it - my husband can no longer record everything he wants to see as it’s on red button 😩

    Ian Arnell (@IanArnell) reported from Camberley, England

    @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

    So, this new digital voice from @bt_uk If the internet is down you can't use your landline. Guess what, the internet is down so we don't have a phone. We can't get a mobile signal in our area, that's why we have a landline. This is progress apparently.

  • Jacsplace3
    Jac Dee 🇺🇦 (@Jacsplace3) reported

    Finally, a customer service employee from @bt_uk is taking ownership of my complaint. Apologies offered by her. I have requested a timeline of everything to identify human error in ceasing the account. Agreed a plan to reinstate broadband & get a refund from @EE @BBCWatchdog

  • JMarkDunlop
    Mark Dunlop (@JMarkDunlop) reported

    @Benleo @BTBusiness @bt_uk are very similarly disrespectful. Raised a formal complaint and they fumbled like inept foreigners who did not intend to care, and then suddenly dropped off a call but never picked my case back up. And that was 17 days ago ...!

  • RaeRubyRaeK
    RaeRubyRae (@RaeRubyRaeK) reported

    @bt_uk You do sell customer info and I can prove it! So I can’t use the app unless I give you my mobile number is that what you’re telling me? There’s no other option?

  • UppaRocket

    @bt_uk can't get into my account ever since you updated your system, so my bill is now overdue due to your issues

    @bt_uk you have sent me around in circles while promising to get a person to speak to me. Blatant lying and disrespect for the customer!

  • nemurikyosirou
    Kenta (@nemurikyosirou) reported

    Hello @bt_uk. I cancelled my broadband service BEFORE activation and within the cooling-off period. However, I’ve been incorrectly charged £33.99. This is unacceptable. If this isn't refunded immediately, I will escalate this to the Communications Ombudsman. Account number is

    Ian Robson (@GFX2001) reported

    The BT 2 factor Authentication Login is rubbish!! Each Time you receive the Passcode Via Email it fails to login. It only works if you get it sent to your phone!! Asked for Help from Support but they only say Download the BT App, which is unusable and provides zero help @bt_uk

    DemonicSuccubus (@MissSatanism) reported

    @bt_uk We’ve done this. But they don’t help. You guys give no help whatsoever. You are genuinely useless. How can you not provide an update based on postcode?
