  • 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

  • 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 😠

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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? 🤔

  • 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....

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

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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 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?

  • fiddler_mike mikef (@fiddler_mike) reported from Kingsclere, England

    @bt_uk is there a problem with the BT email service at the moment? Cheers

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • PeteUplink Pete Ainsworth (@PeteUplink) reported

    @bt_uk I know what's happening. The EE network covering in my area isn't strong enough for the hybrid connect to get more than one bar. Really, I didn't want all this, I just wanted to drop BT Sport, but the customer service guy wasn't for taking no for an answer.

  • author_hughes Julia Hughes (@author_hughes) reported

    @bt_uk So an absolute lack of service on your part, means his bank account has been raided, and the contract he agreed has doubled in price, without his agreement.

  • bobski2410 Bobby Cott (@bobski2410) reported

    @bt_uk You tell me? I had a complaint open with you, it wasn’t resolved and now I don’t hear from the handler who was dealing…

  • Wightsmuggler Simon Dabell (@Wightsmuggler) reported

    @bt_uk could u help me? My friend has BT Halo1 but her 5 year old router is now playing up. Every few days the WiFi drops from an expected 65mbs to around 10mbs. This is corrected by unplugging and restarting. This is a fault on the router.

  • TaraJaneBell Tara Bell (@TaraJaneBell) reported

    On 22 April my broadband service stopped overnight, here I am 8 weeks later still with no service. Come on @bt_uk, sort it out!! Losing the will to live!

  • SparrowcapG SparrowCap Gaming (@SparrowcapG) reported

    @bt_uk trynna cancel tv package since 27th april, get told its getting removed but nothing happends

  • ClaireWork2 Claire Work (@ClaireWork2) reported

    @bt_uk awful Internet connection today struggling to work. .

  • dina_sonagara Dina Sonagara (@dina_sonagara) reported

    @bt_uk we have been left without an internet connection since yesterday with no communication from either @bt_uk or @OpenreachHelp as to when the issue will get fixed!

  • drmatthewhardy Matthew Hardy (@drmatthewhardy) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you, I thought so. The only problem with blocking calls like this is that my BT block list is already full. We get scam calls several times a day and I can't block any more. Why do you limit the number customers can block?

  • drmatthewhardy Matthew Hardy (@drmatthewhardy) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, this problem only gets worse. It makes me wonder why we have to have a landline number at all, its not something I'd choose to have if given the choice
