    @bt_uk So we need to re book our order and wait for openreach to turn off the old line. The issues are 1 BT did not tell us there was a problem 2 We have to re order ourselves and 3 we are still paying direct debits - even though there is no service. I realise we will get a refund

    Joe Tyrrell (@JTyrrell_) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk It would help if you enabled being able to stream the coverage from a mobile device onto a tv via Chromecast or similar. I don’t have access to another device other than a mobile and I’m sure you can appreciate watching on a mobile isn’t ideal.

    @bt_uk I know no more than what I’ve told you. Cannot help thinking it would be quicker for you to forward my message to the relevant department than type a response asking me to go through further hoops…

    day two of broadband down from @bt_uk Promised call back from @bt_uk FTTC team failed to materialise. FTTP team have lost notes from hour on the phone yesterday and want to send an engineer out again! You couldn’t make this up!

    @Tonysmini @bt_uk A database should be updated in minutes, not weeks. 4 weeks is ridiculously slow. Guess I just need to be patient. 😡

    There is no doubt that @bt_uk are one of the worst customer service companies in the UK if not the world. A total joke of a business.

  • ladyemmaclarke
    Emma Clarke (@ladyemmaclarke) reported

    @BT @BTcare I have been 9 days without broadband. 90 minute waits every day to speak to guides. 1 openreach appointment. Broadband went down 10 minutes after he left. New appointment made and then cancelled not by me. . I have never experienced a service as bad.

  • GillianSmith16
    Gillian Smith (@GillianSmith16) reported

    @bt_uk @Beji218888 Your service checker is saying your system is down and your service centres won’t have any more information. This is 2026

  • robertd1981
    Robert Drummond (@robertd1981) reported

    @bt_uk I don’t really want to raise a complaint. It’s basic looking after people and that’s what you and Openreach should be doing. I should not have to complain for you to have nothing more than average standards.

    @bt_uk Hi - sorry, I mean the internet connection has been down all day, so we have been cash only in our store all day .. hopefully it back in tomorrow

  • Haggisguy
    Alan Swanson (@Haggisguy) reported

    @bt_uk The first 3 I cannot do because I cannot log into my account online, you don't take international checks, I don't live in the UK so pay machine doesn't work. And your customer service team want to authenticate the account with me, using a uk mobile.

  • RSh234
    Robin Shaw (@RSh234) reported

    @bt_uk @charl32647 That’s part of the problem. In my recent experience they didn’t help on most occasions, only when I chanced upon one good one. They just consumed huge time and frustrated.
