    @bt_uk who do we contact to sort out the phone line at my Grandma's house, a building site next to hers has brought the wire down. She has been off since last Wednesday, had 2 engineers here and still hasn't been reconnected!! Also told to cancel her holiday

    @bt_uk Absolutely fuming isn’t the word! Awful service since day 1! I rely on my broadband to heat my home due to having Hive. When my internet’s down I can heat my home. Causing significant health implications! #goodbye #awful #poor #shocking

    Ordered @bt_uk broadband at the start of December with an installation date of 11 January. Not great but understandable in current circumstances. Just had text message saying new activation date is 8 March. Very poor.

    Glad I don’t have @btsport if they have Steve McManaman commentating. Very poor. Obviously hates #ManchesterUnited. Horrible to listen too. We know how #VAR works you twonk!

    Hi @bt_uk in appreciate that you are really busy at the moment but I really need some help regarding a change of circumstances with moving home. I was on hold for 5 hours yesterday, 2.5 today, have tried using the app and have sent a DM. Please can you help me as soon as you can

    @bt_uk Nobody else games or owns a desktop so I'm not sure tbh. It's been a common issue for a while. I have spoken to a few people whom also have the same issue. There's also 100's of posts online about it. Trying to game is virtually impossible the second someone boots Netflix.

    @bt_uk Hi BT. I'm eligible for BT Home Essentials, but I'm not a BT or EE customer. I need to apply online as I can't use the phone due to a disability. I can't find an online application for new customers. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks. @Ofcom

  • leedvnprt
    lee davenport (@leedvnprt) reported

    @bt_uk I can't because the My BT app and online is broken. Just keep ending up on a page that says that you cant access my account and you're working on a fix. It's been like that since around April!

    @btbusinesscare day 3 of no broadband effecting my business and you reply saying you’ve opened a complaint wtf such a bad business

  • markymarc1973

    @bt_uk Tremendous work @bt_uk not only have I contacted you on here (and you haven’t even replied or DM’d to my reply), but I also emailed you and got nothing back. So, phone call, twitter feed and email and no comeback from you guys other than to call again. Awful. Goodbye in Oct.

  • vinc3h4ll
    Vince (@vinc3h4ll) reported

    @bt_uk don’t want you to close account! can’t login to web as your procedures require a billing account number and I haven’t had but account for some years

  • WebbyJamesHere
    JamesWebb (@WebbyJamesHere) reported

    @bt_uk can you fix your website so people can actually log in! Put details in, get texted a code, put code in, go to look at acc & get taken back to password page… round & round 🔁 🙄 If you want people to pay their bills it’s quite useful to let them see their acc 🤨

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported

    @bt_uk my mum is a vulnerable customer and had a new connection on the 1st July and it’s never worked. An engineer was due on the 8th, 14th and today I’ve now been told it’s the 15th and she isn’t able to make it. Every-time I call I have to repeat the same tale. Help.
