    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

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @Feesuff1 @virginmedia Having same issues on BTSport 3 HD and 4HD.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • JR_1871 Jonathan Richards (@JR_1871) reported from Reading, England

    Just lost my @bt_uk broadband - and they are saying it could be days before it’s repaired. I work from home. Disgraceful service. If I was days late with my payment they’d be all over me. If you’re with BT be warned. Apparently it’s due to us being in the ‘run up to Christmas’?

  • 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

  • floralclaire floralclaire (@floralclaire) reported from Bracknell, England

    @bt_uk What a joke! 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 and contractors haven’t fixed it. A disgrace! They are in 80s

  • 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!

  • floralclaire floralclaire (@floralclaire) reported 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!

  • 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!

  • floralclaire floralclaire (@floralclaire) reported from Bracknell, England

    @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!

  • 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? :)

  • BethcWillard Beth Willard (@BethcWillard) reported from Reading, England

    @_hypocaust Having the same issue with @btsport No coverage even though scheduled 😠

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    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

  • 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.

  • carboncoach Dave Hampton (Standing as Earth) 🌍 (@carboncoach) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    Dear @bt_uk Our mum is 94 yrs old in 2 weeks and relies on her landline phone Her service failed Oct23 Engineer said old handset needed replacing… mm? We chose BT to order a new one. But ‘tween you and @RoyalMail - it has not been delivered yet Can u help? @SueAuthor knows

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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • msherrit Mike Sherrit (@msherrit) reported

    @bt_uk issues in ky10 area? 200 Mb fttp connection pretty much unusable.

  • BenHarvell Ben Harvell (@BenHarvell) reported

    Who's the customer, @bt_uk or @WeAreOpenreach? Seem incapable of talking to one another which directly impacts the end user (me). To have to cancel an entire order & wait a week to open a new one before an engineer can fix the problem they created is madness. @OpenreachHelp

  • ronnieronaldo11 Ronnie 🚗 (@ronnieronaldo11) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @btsport so after 75 mins chat with someone in your Indian chat centre I still have no service so another night no uefa football for me, thanks!

  • BenHarvell Ben Harvell (@BenHarvell) reported

    @bt_uk Answering calls is one thing, actually being able to help is completely different. I've spoken to several friendly @bt_uk staff who seem completely hamstrung by archaic processes and a computer-says-no mentality. "The system won't let me" is not an adequate excuse in this age.

  • qafro Gof (@qafro) reported

    @btsport pls stop picking favourites for #MUFC if they're playing bad - #TVPundits

  • LeoMartorana Moanin (@LeoMartorana) reported

    @MarcAllera @bt_uk I’ll tell you what’s occurring. Your ‘brilliant people’ have disconnected a phone line because sending an engineer to fix a fault cost money. A fault which took them 2 days to find but which I had proved in 2 minutes. As a BT shareholder I’m disgusted.

  • aitch_R_aitch Rach (@aitch_R_aitch) reported

    @bt_uk is you are the best, if hate to see the #worst never known anything like this! #rubbish change my date but don't tell me! I've been trying to get installed since January!! #useless

  • druidic_giblets Druidic Giblets (@druidic_giblets) reported

    @Megacharlizard @bt_uk We have the same issue, swept in before we moved into our new build and made a deal with the builders for FTTP so no one in my area will try with it as they have to pay BT a **** tonne It's a joke, I just wanna leave maaaaan

  • JDNalton James Nalton (@JDNalton) reported

    @BSaundersSport @btsport Might be one of those annoying 'digital exclusives'. Not sure why they do it like this. Had the same issue with a game I was trying to watch in the last round.

  • JoJo_Snell Johanna Snell (@JoJo_Snell) reported

    @bt_uk hello do you have customer service? You’ve ignored my tweets and you have pushed back fixing my parents phone line and landline again!! Coming up to 2 weeks without landline and internet! What is going on? @BBCWatchdog #neverchoosebt #awfulservice
