  • 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

  • IanArnell 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

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

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

  • DoughnutDoney Doughnut Doney (@DoughnutDoney) reported from Benson, England

    @bt_uk Want to try a new router please so I know if thats the problem or not, thanks

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 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.

  • richardpotty (Potts) ATFC (@richardpotty) reported from Farnborough, England

    Stop pronouncing German clubs in the stupid accent 🤦 #Bundesliga #btsport

  • 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!

  • 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?

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

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

  • DoughnutDoney Doughnut Doney (@DoughnutDoney) reported from Benson, England

    @bt_uk Want to try a new router plz so I know if thats the problem or not. Thank you

  • 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? 🤔

  • EddieEdwards16 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 🙈

  • 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?

  • 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....

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

    @bt_uk Is broadband down in OX11 postcode area?

  • 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.

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

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

  • KristyLouise87 Kristy Louise (@KristyLouise87) reported

    @bt_uk It’s always dropping / slow, the engineers have said nothing can be done

  • Mareen_Anthony Mareen Anthony (@Mareen_Anthony) reported

    @bt_uk No i have not but stuck in a bit of a dilemma. I cannot afford to be without internet for two days because of work and 4 year old. If their engineer visit fixes stuff on 2nd then i may have to cancel and hope the service is fine for next 18 months.

  • LiamS6Times Sir Gini Wijnaldum (@LiamS6Times) reported

    @bt_uk LISA! Every single adviser is telling me this! Never ever happen. Confirm this complaint is still open and a manager has accessed the complaint/account since last time we spoke 1 or 2 weeks ago.

  • Soph_connolly Sophie (@Soph_connolly) reported

    @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp 2 weeks ago you came to my house to fit fibre&caused thousands of pounds worth of damage by bursting a pipe under my floor.I'm still waiting for a phonecall back& replies 2 my emails(I've rang over 10 times now!)If I owed you £££s it'd be a different story!

  • mikecornes Mike. Stay at home. 3.5% 💙 🐝 🏳️‍🌈 🇪🇺 🖤 (@mikecornes) reported

    @bt_uk Hi @bt_uk issues returned last week and another @OpenreachHelp engineer came out and this time bypasses the existing internal wiring with a new cable from the junction box to a new socket. My connection is STILL dropping out! 😤🤬

  • niravhathi_ Nirav Hathi (@niravhathi_) reported

    @bt_uk Your forum moderator suggested a fix by end of Feb. We are past that with no fix. This is becoming ridiculous. Remember we pay for this and it is a part of the BT Broadband proposition

  • jonathanevered Jonathan Evered (@jonathanevered) reported

    @bt_uk Summary of your sorry attempt at providing a service waiting for you in your inbox.

  • GiordieLad Dave Johnson (@GiordieLad) reported

    @bt_uk This is indeed a horrible company to deal with. You must cancel your direct debit immediately you decide to leave BT. They tell you they will refund you easier if you leave your direct debit in place. Lies, I’m still waiting weeks after leaving BT.

  • Imy002 Imran (@Imy002) reported

    @bt_uk @nowtvhelp can you please provide me with an update on the broadband outage in in L8 area on going since last Wednesday. Both now tv (who I have broadband contract with) and bt (who provide the service to now tv) are unable to provide any update/ETA for resolution.

  • Greggsy2324 Mark Gregg (@Greggsy2324) reported

    @Stuart_PhotoAFC Great clarity on those pictures. I felt it was a penalty yesterday for sure. Was watching on @btsport so called “HD service” gotta say it’s garbage
