  • 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?

  • 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? 🤔

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

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

  • 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

  • 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’?

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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? :)

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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!

    @bt_uk I am not interested in black or white if they are playing poor football they deserve criticism Rashford was poor at best,Saka played well but took a poor penalty?

  • atlas_contact Atlas Recruitment (@atlas_contact) reported

    @btbusinesscare I have never called you guys and not spent over an hour dealing with the issue and I have never called you guys and not come off the phone feeling frustrated, annoyed and generally let down! Pathetic.

  • andrealerner andrea lerner (@andrealerner) reported

    @bt_uk Hi I am trying to find out what is happening in DM's with my mother's phone but nobody is replying to me. I was told a divert had been put on her phone to her mobile but her landline phone still rings out and now her mobile is playing up which I presume is down to the divert.

  • mjwildman1 m.j. wildman (@mjwildman1) reported

    @IM_org @bt_uk @rioferdy5 A very worthwhile subject to cover. The internet is great, it has also advanced hugely in recent years so there are plenty of bad guys who want to exploit it and exploit our kids. Don't let them.

  • CornishTime Choughed-to-bits **Brexit Done** (@CornishTime) reported

    @btbusinesscare It might help if you employed engineers who know what they are doing. My broadband was set up aug last year after about four months of trying. My hub light was purple from the start, engineer told me that was perfectly fine. 1/

  • Groveler Mark Jones (@Groveler) reported

    @bt_uk Unfortunately the engineers looking at our problem have referred it to the Fibre team (?) who give a complete date of 19th July. So without Internet or, if reconnects, v slow Internet till then, maybe longer 😟

  • OryxRopes 𝔒𝔯𝔶𝔵 ℜ𝔬𝔭𝔢𝔰 (@OryxRopes) reported

    @bt_uk Your Routers are genuinely terrible, they drop singnal all the time, we pay for 60mbps and get 20 for £50-£60 a month. I don't know if it's something to do with the line but hopefully an actual competent router will fix my problem.

  • Sammi30424770 Sammi 💙3.5%#FBPE⭐ (@Sammi30424770) reported

    @Delz4u2nv @LFCRedRobbo @bt_uk Yes you are absolutely right. I was talking about the extra pressures that POC feel if they fail. POC know they have to be twice as good ad their white counterparts. But I do agree with you.

  • atlas_contact Atlas Recruitment (@atlas_contact) reported

    @btbusinesscare I don't buy that at all! You've moved the teams online because it means you can save money and dumb down the service even further! I've dealt with your 'complaint team' several times before. The whole set up just smacks of "we don't care" it's genuinely terrible! 8 calls now btw!

  • ultragold_ Marisa Lee (@ultragold_) reported

    @simonebowen @bt_uk Hey Simone, E2 here too. I complained several times over livechat and was credited £20 on the first day, and today was told I would be credited £8 per day for the lack of service. We've also got a hybrid connect on the way, is it going to be rubbish? 😫
