  • OrignalBabydoll Kafayat Toks MamaBear🐻 Timson🇳🇬🇸🇱🇬🇧 (@OrignalBabydoll) reported from Croydon, England

    @bt_uk Updates? All I know is I went to the GPs after they left and the main road I live off had at least 8 Openreach vans doing repairs. The road my cul-de-sac is off isn’t that long. I was told by one operative there were numerous issues in my area

  • andy_gaffey Andy Gaffey (@andy_gaffey) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk Hey BT I was in the middle of work tonight at around 1230am and lost my broadband connection. Went through troubleshooting. Restarted my router and now have solid orange light. Status page says you are working on the network. Was this planned maintenance? I live in SW16

  • OrignalBabydoll Kafayat Toks MamaBear🐻 Timson🇳🇬🇸🇱🇬🇧 (@OrignalBabydoll) reported from Croydon, England

    @BTCare please not I will be expecting a refund for the lack of internet service all day today which I’ve been told won’t be fixed till tomorrow. The outage has affected working from home and online university lectures

  • KushlasBySanaer ☘Adrian 🇪🇺 Madden ☘ (@KushlasBySanaer) reported from Brentford, England

    I've just been texting @bt_uk customer services and it turned out to be quite a straight-forward uncomplicated transaction. May need to sit down out of shock.

  • Flaminhaystack Antonia (@Flaminhaystack) reported from London, England

    @jenniseex @bt_uk @virginmedia Yep. I have very poor Internet in my home and pay large prices. Everytime I phone to get it rectified, I'm told there is nothing wrong with the WiFi and my house is the issue. Pathetic. I detest them

  • steve2682 Armstrong (@steve2682) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I have been on hold for 33min, is there anyone working in your call centre?? I still have an ongoing internet issue. Your wait times are shocking. Think it’s about time I moved over to @bt_uk

  • danialtink Danielle Altink (@danialtink) reported from Camberwell, England

    @bt_uk is there a broadband outage in london? My router is showing an orange light but need to wfh

  • Barry2103 Barry French (@Barry2103) reported from Richmond, England

    There is a scam going on. A machine is calling the @bt_uk line claiming you have ordered an iPad on @AmazonUK and want your bank details so as they can issue a refund. If BT would like to give me details where I can report this...

  • kingswoodranger Anne Ayres (@kingswoodranger) reported from Lower Kingswood, England

    @btsport @DavidGinola @DavidGinola96 #bosman just watched your documentary on catch up. What a great piece of journalism. As David sums up, how can this man have been totally abandoned by those who benefited from all he sacrificed and no one has attempted 2 help him?Shame on them

  • OrignalBabydoll Kafayat Toks MamaBear🐻 Timson🇳🇬🇸🇱🇬🇧 (@OrignalBabydoll) reported from Croydon, England

    @bt_uk I’ve tweeted what I tweeted and will be moving on. Your service goes on and off all the time this time it’s completely out. I am talking about why my internet access is important at the moment. And you’re telling me about how engineers are working when it’s literally their job

  • JamesMorris77 James Morris (@JamesMorris77) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @BTSportBoxing @btsport please please please turn off the ridiculous ten second loop of crowd murmur on the boxing. It’s ruining the coverage. It’s not working. Turn it off #DuboisJoyce

  • OrignalBabydoll Kafayat Toks MamaBear🐻 Timson🇳🇬🇸🇱🇬🇧 (@OrignalBabydoll) reported from Croydon, England

    @bt_uk You are very condescending right now. My household can’t do our jobs because of your crap service. And it’s fibre optic broadband. Drs & supermarket staff are working through the pandemic too. We can’t today & tomorrow because of a full outage. Don’t be ignorant with your replies

  • kateMorris102 Kate Morris (@kateMorris102) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk Dear BT the service is certainly not a download speed of 8.94. This is an ongoing problem. Pls can you let me know what your tests showed?

  • SamVerissimo Sam Luis Verissimo (@SamVerissimo) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk is there a outage in se5 internet and landline not working?

  • martin466004 Martin (@martin466004) reported from Bromley, England

    @DaveKirwin @bt_uk This one needed a drop of light oil just to help loosen the dial up, but otherwise is in cracking condition

  • R0LLSY Jon (@R0LLSY) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @bt_uk let’s discuss selling customers fibre packages... then 2 months later, less than 48 hours before install deciding we are not critical and leaving me with an open ended install date? Selling packages you can’t deliver on is v poor. Especially when home schooling etc

  • mazzles78 Maria Ganner (@mazzles78) reported from West Molesey, England

    @bt_uk @chrisdotlatchem Wow!! What awful customer service and the tone of the responses too!! I most definitely would not be recommending anyone take BT 😮😮

  • robholley Rob Holley (@robholley) reported from Camberwell, England

    @ladyjazmana That’s what I’m doing with BT. Was so tired of the slow speeds/no Internet and paying £55 for the privilege plus a land line (??) and BTSport (!!)

  • ADMunro Alex Munro (@ADMunro) reported from Esher, England

    Could the commentators on @btsportfootball @btsport please stop sniffing directly into the microphone. It is awful #EmiratesFACup

  • kanishofficial kanish official (@kanishofficial) reported from Camberwell, England

    @bt_uk Internet down around Bermondsey. What the hell is going on? 🙄😒😡

  • RichTWarms RTW 🏃🏼🚴🏼 🌍 (@RichTWarms) reported

    @OpenreachHelp The area is AL1. I'd be more impressed if you could just tell me openly and honestly what the problem is and when it might be fixed. Otherwise, we're into the usual blame game between companies. This is your network. @bt_uk

  • jacquiewain jacquie wain (@jacquiewain) reported

    @bt_uk Your appalling incompetence has left me without landline or broadband for days. You have failed at every step for a month to get things right. Customer service calls back never come. I am at a loss.

  • DaveStandard David Standard (@DaveStandard) reported

    @bt_uk I will try that tomorrow and see if my Wi-Fi improves but my main problem is with wired connections - Ethernet connected Sky doesn’t work, did before - firmware doesn’t like networks by the feel of it

  • MissBettyA MissBettyA (@MissBettyA) reported

    @bt_uk you have by far the worst customer service. Broadband was suppose to be activate yesterday, still none today, have been on hold for ages to try and speak to someone. How am I suppose to WFH in a pandemic with this crap service? #poorcustomerservice #btbroadband

  • RuthieD10 Ruth Davies (@RuthieD10) reported

    @bt_uk Hi, same problem as yesterday this evening. Why is my internet going down in the evenings? This is not right

  • sneaksnbeats Richard Frost (@sneaksnbeats) reported

    @bt_uk We're moving house tomorrow, and as Halo customers wanted to secure a MiniHub as our new service won't be switched on for 2 weeks

  • Tonysmini Tony (@Tonysmini) reported

    @Smudger7404 @bt_uk Your best bet is the BT community forum, they have some of their tech team on there who can probably help you.

  • KevinPascoe Kevin Pascoe #SocialistWelshLabour (@KevinPascoe) reported

    @jeanannsmith33 @btsport I still love George Best’s quotes - "In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol - it was the worst 20 minutes of my life" and "I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered". A flawed genius but a genius nonetheless 😢

  • RichTWarms RTW 🏃🏼🚴🏼 🌍 (@RichTWarms) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, there are known issues in the area. My point is that there are only so many things that can cause the problem. So why has my provider got no info from @OpenreachHelp? And why is it acceptable for BT to manage a system with these faults when broadband is an essential service?

  • KaoS_Bluey Bluey (@KaoS_Bluey) reported

    @bt_uk ..because your customer service is poor, your speeds are terrible and your connections break every 20 minutes. No thanks, ill stick with Sky.
