  • Simmy270 Josh (@Simmy270) reported from Longton, England

    @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.

  • AdamPlatt95 Adam Platt (@AdamPlatt95) reported from Chorley, England

    @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

    @bt_uk internet not working in PR4 - is this a localised issue?

  • MikeNolan Michael Nolan (@MikeNolan) reported from Burscough, England

    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.

    @bt_uk Was an hours call earlier engineer appointment booked for tomorrow. I sincerely hope they resolve the issue as 8 days without Wi-Fi is tough when you WFH

  • futurestn Jim Julien 💙 (@futurestn) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve managed to actually speak to someone and apparently it’s an external problem I’ve been advised and given an estimated date of it being fixed.

  • sarahlou24xxxxx sarah lou (@sarahlou24xxxxx) reported

    @bt_uk hi can you help-my dad is 80,he gets broadband /line and mobile through yourselves,Sunday he rang and was told EE now deal with his mobile and today received a EE sim with a different number ,he wants to keep his old number,can he do this?

  • SimonWeekes Simon Weekes (@SimonWeekes) reported

    @bt_uk Can you please help? I was told my first order for fibre had been cancelled and to place a new order. I've done that, but 'MyBT' is only showing the first order; and there's nothing about being refunded the £9.99 I paid for the Smart Hub on the first order.

  • sarahruthglynn Sarah Glynn (@sarahruthglynn) reported

    @bt_uk I've spoken to 2 different advisors in the last 10 minutes, the first made me confident I am correct to leave your company the second 'susie' has just about restored my faith in your company, she epitomised customer service and actually made me feel valued as a customer

  • fentinic Nic (@fentinic) reported

    @bt_uk Afternoon, any chance I could have a reply to my DM please? We're still without full service for landline and broadband and @EE signal is poor too 😢

  • SimonWeekes Simon Weekes (@SimonWeekes) reported

    @bt_uk I had a look at what packages were available on BT's website before going ahead. Apparently this has left an unfulfilled ordered on the BT's system, and this is stopping me getting the BT fibre I ordered. Can you help?

  • GFX2001 Ian Robson (@GFX2001) reported

    @bt_uk Don't bother I used 1572 on the phone instead. I will mention these new Website problems to the Customer Resolution Team the next time I talk to them. They are already dealing with problems caused by the MY BT Website not working correctly back in Janurary.

  • nrichhelp Nick Richards CIPP/E CIPM FIP (@nrichhelp) reported

    @bt_uk causing our daughter a lot of stress. She dropped the phone line but kept broadband & now they want to charge her more for 1 service than she was paying for both. BT person agreed she'd been misled but said nothing they can do. £400 to cancel contract. Hopeless #BT
