    @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…

  • DavidRobson84
    David Robson 🎧🎬🌈 (@DavidRobson84) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk I’m getting SO many cold calls on the landline recently, especially first thing in the morning. How do I log it/make it stop? 😭 It’s that much of a nuisance I want to cancel it but need it for work…

  • rahelab
    Rahel Bailie (@rahelab) reported from Camberwell, England

    @bt_uk Both had trouble hooking up the fibre, and then I got a text saying it might be Weeks before sometime else comes out. And now, I'm told that someone will come out, though time travelling back to yesterday.

    John Mitchell (@prof_j_mitchell) reported from Bromley, England

    Third hour on the phone to @bt_uk still no idea why the installer just failed to turn up, and next appointment not for two weeks. Shockingly bad service.

    @OffcumdenL @colourblindorg @bt_uk The whole green = go / red = stop concept was clearly never devised by someone who was colourblind

    @bt_uk WiFi signal in SW15 keeps dropping. Is there a major issue in SW London area?

  • BrixtonBobbyBob
    Christiana 🕷Activist Lawyer (@BrixtonBobbyBob) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk my internet is dropping out all the time (this morning 5 times in two hours) and the extra thing I pay for for “unbreakable wifi” isn’t doing anything AND my landline is still down … what is going on?

  • MarinerIndy
    James Mariner (@MarinerIndy) reported from Camberwell, England

    Just had the misfortune to catch a few minutes of 'The Football's On' on @btsport . Never again. Like giving weekly airtime to your mate in the pub who think he knows his football, but just doesn't get it. Reactive dross.

  • frostefroste
    Patrick Frost (@frostefroste) reported from Blindley Heath, England

    @bt_uk - agreed a new contract on 21st November and yet weirdly come the next bill you ignore this and my charges. Past 14 day cooling off too. So basically your ripping me off - and btw your app is **** if your being ripped off

  • JTyrrell_
    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.

  • prof_j_mitchell
    John Mitchell (@prof_j_mitchell) reported from Bromley, England

    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!

  • agustin
    Agustin Pesciallo (@agustin) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Yes, down for two days and when i called yesterday they said it was gonna be fixed today and it is not. I work from home. I have already spent my @EE mobile iNet and I'm buying @bt_uk passes. How can I cancel the service and move to other provider?

  • nini2903
    Neenie (@nini2903) reported from Salfords, England

    @bt_uk Really sad to see that @DPDgroup_news drivers are not dementia friendly. Quite curt/rude when phoned me to say he couldn't find address(he was next door) Did not allow time for Mum to get her id to receive her new easy to use phone.Just left. #dementia

    Duncan Anderson 🍃🔋⚡️🤖 (@duncsand) reported

    I called @bt_uk to cancel a service we're not using. The "guide" put me on hold for ages, then the line went dead, followed by an automated SMS asking what I thought of the service. Not very good is the answer!

  • aboycalleddavid
    David Liddle (@aboycalleddavid) reported

    @bt_uk Is there a problem with account logins? I am trying to log in but when I get to the page where I enter my verification code sent to my email - the box disappears and the screen flicks to a white screen

  • LiterateCynic
    Literate Cynic (@LiterateCynic) reported

    Brilliant! @bt_uk FTTP N/W - network fault and @EE* 4/5G utterly abysmal at my NR 12 7 location... *Roll on end May when I can say bye-bye!

  • Jacsplace3
    Jac Dee 🇺🇦 (@Jacsplace3) reported

    Dear @bt_uk We switched to @EE home broadband 2 months ago and it's been awful since. We're now paying for two bills. Customer service think we switched in September 2025 - incorrect. Today we have no broadband Goodness sake the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing

  • Caldale58
    CM (@Caldale58) reported

    @bt_uk is there ever a day when your products actually work for a whole day. If it's not the unstable app continually throwing you out, it's accessing MyBT. Why does anyone stay with you. Totally exasperated again.

  • TEOL85
    The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported

    @bt_uk . Online Radio Stations based in Wigan and St Helens and Weston-super-Mare and Burnham-on-Sea have also gone out at random times so it's in multiple areas as well are BT even on the problem fixing why the whole countries internet is going out at random times at the moment?

  • imbukhtiar
    Bukhtiar shah (@imbukhtiar) reported

    @bt_uk @BT_UK unacceptable service. You sent my business equipment to the WRONG address (Ripley instead of Neasden). My shop is OPEN and I cannot operate.Also being wrongly charged for TWO services when I only have ONE. It's impacting my business. Fix billing & resend equipment.

    @bt_uk Referring someone to Ofcom when you won’t fix your own issues is not a solution
