  • ippyfuzion Leon Ip (@ippyfuzion) reported from Newport, Wales

    @bt_uk No known issue. Since there was BT van outside my home doing some sort of upgrade on the copper wires of the area. Internet been very poor. Already replaced router twice. When gaming on PC with ethernet cable plug in and someone makes a WhatsApp call my ping spikes to 500ms!

  • Dai_ssrs Dai Williams (@Dai_ssrs) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    Did Liverpool have problems at centre back last season? Because I don’t think @btsport have mentioned it yet

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Bt business 0800800156 they said they would call back if the line got disconnected. No call back was received. I'd like to cancel the service please as I was hoping to postpone the installation but after a disappointing experience would prefer not to continue with it

  • MissESilcox MissESilcox (@MissESilcox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • Sammy78avfc Sam 💕🦥💕 (@Sammy78avfc) reported from Ebbw Vale, Wales

    Who are the commentators on BTSport? Absolutely awful

  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • johnsey80 Steve Johns (@johnsey80) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I'm not a @bt_uk customer but spoke to Payel via their chat service today to help my sister out. Above and beyond customer service, a credit to the company. Thank you Payel & BT

  • RebIrvine Rebecca Irvine (@RebIrvine) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk on our 30th cal day with no Internet; BT advisors have stated the fault is with @OpenreachHelp but your Internal systems are not talking to oneanother effectively leaving us with no information on the nature of the problem. The estimated fix date goes up weekly. Ideas?

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Pontnewydd, Wales

    @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk over to you. Can you put in writing what the problem is please? You refused yesterday. @OpenreachHelp are listening and want to help.

  • NorthGwentBlue LeftofCentre (@NorthGwentBlue) reported from Argoed, Wales

    @bt_uk Hey why are you trying to renege AGAIN on a refer a friend voucher? Every time I refer someone you try the same trick to say it was ordered outside of the referall link, you cancelled the appt 3 times! I will not accept this treatment again. Your customer service is awful

  • BigBernie4 Greg (Big Bernie) MW7BUF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇵🇸 (@BigBernie4) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @bt_uk no service all afternoon in the NP19 7LT area. Checked the status page, no known issues apparently. Tried to speak with an advisor, and there are none available. What's happening please?

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point

  • WPTutz WPTuts (@WPTutz) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @bt_uk not happy that my broadband upload speed has dropped by nearly 70%... As a key factor to paying for the service, this is unacceptable! 👎

  • cymruchris Chris Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@cymruchris) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @bt_uk I've just released I'm being charged for a sim that I asked to be disconnected months ago. Can you help please?

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • Cobblerja JJ 🐧 (@Cobblerja) reported from Brynmawr, Wales

    @bt_uk my services are currently off. Ringing your customer services are a dead end. Please sort it out

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Henllys, Wales

    Shocking service from @bt_uk - no phone or internet for a week! Vulnerable adult here and nobody cares! welfare - ref C37677360 - only comms I'm getting is from Dave at @OpenreachHelp ! Sort it out BT!

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • onstagefool Martin 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 (@onstagefool) reported

    @bt_uk Never a bad broadband day. My BT broadband never misses a beat...can't fault it. Although I do use my own router instead of the poor quality hub BT provide.

  • LFC_PS79 PS79 💙 (@LFC_PS79) reported

    As a @bt_uk customer, you'd think it was straight forward to go from Fibre 1 to Full Fibre 100 but no. You can't upgrade to that package on the app or website, but I can upgrade to more expensive ones. Its infuriating.

  • AlitaY1K AlitaYK (@AlitaY1K) reported

    @bt_uk inability to provide an engineer at promised time despite the operator clearly spotting a problem at their end as well as us reporting a hub that has been orange colour depsite factory resets and other solutions. This is absolutely disgusting - we even bought warrantee

  • chris2015bcw cjw (@chris2015bcw) reported

    @bt_uk ****IMPORTANT BT CUSTOMER INFORMATION****** please read before you join BT! Over the course of 4 months, BT have taken £250 from my personal bank account without any authorisation to do so. My contract was finished with BT in January 2022 and I left to join EE.

  • elderpegasus Neil Young (@elderpegasus) reported

    This is a new one. @bt_uk hub claims to have a connection. I can ping out, but apparently no more than that - certainly not working. BT website says no outages in our area... but suspect something infrastructure side has fallen over.

  • chris2015bcw cjw (@chris2015bcw) reported

    @bt_uk The back office at BT are now looking into my issue that has been ongoing for months. It's a shame that I have had to take to calling BT out on social media for them to take any meaningful action. They assure me I will be updated next week. The fact still remains I am -£300.

  • LilRecordGirl Rosalie ✨ (@LilRecordGirl) reported

    @bt_uk I had a modem coming for a new installation on Monday. I think you gave Royal Mail the wrong postcode as I couldn't update delivery details as it said my postcode was wrong. Now I can't get it redelivered. RM support isn't open until Monday, when you arrive. Please help!

  • pfnickless Pamela (@pfnickless) reported

    @bt_uk Live chat got nowhere, the fault is not on my property, it has been checked. I was told to phone or text service engineer, bit difficult when you don’t have a working phone line.

  • Benjami86447091 Benjamin Smith (@Benjami86447091) reported

    @bt_uk My broadband has just gone down in Surrey - purple flashing hub.

  • Zinaad Paul Deery (@Zinaad) reported

    @bt_uk What a cheek, BT want £441 to cancel contract where we've been having problems for months, umpteen engineer visits, broadband speeds well below those promised, service cuts out numerous times a day, today been off more than on! And you want £441 to stop this crap service?
