  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

  @bt_uk major issues again in the SL7 area with #broadband #help been terrible for ever

  Henry Johnson (@HenryJ489) reported 11 minutes ago 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.

  Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported 25 minutes ago 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.

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

  @bt_uk My parents live in Abbotts Ann. They have been without phone and internet 2 WEEKS after roadworks. Who was responsible. Who can fix it? They are desperate now. @OpenreachHelp and @bt_uk haven’t fixed it. A disgrace!

  I hope #Lloris hasn’t broken anything, especially his elbow. Speaking from experience, 18 months later mine still not right ! #Brighton #Tottenham @btsport

  @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 😩

  @TheVanaramaNL @btsport Nobel never punished them the crap referee did

• 
  ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported 47 minutes ago 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.

  David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported 48 minutes ago 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 !

  vicky clarke (@vickyclarke76) reported 48 minutes ago 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?

• 
  Ian Reynolds (@pumps1000) reported 48 minutes ago 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!

• 
  Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported 48 minutes ago from High Wycombe, England

  The exchange in Beaconsfield has just fallen over, landlines and broadband down. Anyone from @btbusinesscare online who can get someone on the case. Has taken out most of the businesses in the area including their card processing capabilities? Thanks. #bthelp @OpenreachHelp

  ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported 50 minutes ago 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? :)

  John Gubba (@JohnGubba) reported 51 minutes ago 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

• 
  floralclaire (@floralclaire) reported 53 minutes ago from Bracknell, England

  @bt_uk please help my 80+ year old parents. Without phone or internet for 2 weeks since fibre works broke line. No one can/is fixing. They are desperate. Mobile only works in garden! Dunkirt Lane, Abbotts Ann. Please help!

• 
  Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported 54 minutes ago 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? 🤔

• 
  Sharon Ducker (was Kuhl) (@Sharonkuhl) reported 59 minutes ago 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

  Tru Benjamin (@TruTruThinks) reported 5 minutes ago

  @WeAreOpenreach @btbusinesscare @BTBusiness appalling breach of service. 4 dates have now passed where we were told broadband would be fixed. BT seem to think this is acceptable as 'it's subject to change' How are we supposed to run a business with no comms!! 4 weeks & counting

• 
  keely (@keely490544) reported 9 minutes ago

  @bt_uk disabled discrimination. made complaint. respond to complaint by CALL BACK ONLY what about millions who can't use phone, deaf, stroke, speak issues etc etc etc. disgusting

• 
  Tommy (@leopardtommy) reported 14 minutes ago

  @bt_uk hi BT, I’m still awaiting a response re: my complaint. This is nearly two weeks on and you’ve done roughly NOTHING to connect me to your network.

• 
  Alison indge (@AliIndge) reported 14 minutes ago

  Give @bt_uk a slow hand clap for messing up my email password - I made a BT ID which then said incorrect pw on my BT email account so I changed it - then tried to log in to the new BT ID account and it’s saying wrong pw too - give me strength 🤬

• 
  MattHopkins1620 (@MattHopkins1620) reported 15 minutes ago

  @bt_uk are committed to excellent customer service, they say so when you ring them. Then they say they're very busy and they promise to speak to you within 20 minutes or you could ring back. Hint, excellent customer service starts with answering the bloody phone.

• 
  Mo B (@M300bt3) reported 15 minutes ago

  @palmersears @bt_uk I have the same issue, on going for several weeks. When will this be resolved. Can't see bills or any products, requested a paper bill over a week ago and still haven't received that either. @bt_uk

• 
  Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reported 17 minutes ago

  @bt_uk you then went onto confirm to refuse to cancel the Digital Voice appointment even though your records show the telecare equipment hasn’t been upgraded yet and that the notes say I’ll be in touch when it is. Rep went on to say we might be left without a line, like a threat

• 
  bakerbird  (@cakey12) reported 20 minutes ago

  @bt_uk If your take the time to check & converse with each other you would see that several people have all been in touch saying the same thing ! Obviously it is a problem your end. Giving me another reason to leave

  Simboman 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@simboman) reported 22 minutes ago

  @stokeygurl @bt_uk Sadly, BT are fobbing you off. This is a known issue and clearing your cache won't work. If it does by all means come back and update us. I've calIed 150 several times now about this issue and no resolution. I have asked for a paper bill and 7 days on and I'm still waiting.

  @bt_uk do you guys bother solving issues or just ignore customers???
