  • 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.

    @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

  • MandiJT Me (@MandiJT) reported from Brinscall, England

  • TimothyDRCarr Tim Carr (@TimothyDRCarr) reported

    @btbusinesscare I doubt it’s they even make a true mesh network. Nevertheless I stuck with them. Fast forward to today my FF 900 service went live. Now it turns out the Smart Hub 2 Wi-Fi itself can’t handle anything above 400mbps. You can only get 900mbps when connected….

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    Trying to change phone from @bt_uk to @Plusnet. Plus Net say they can't takeover line due to incompatible "social telephony" & I must ask BT to remove it. BT deny it's a problem and say Plus Net can transfer. To and fro, to and fro. Neither will talk to each other. HELP.

  • QuentinKirrin Quentin Kirrin (@QuentinKirrin) reported

    @jhoffman___ I ask these companies why they dont want #hetero customers.. they get VERY annoyed.. yes @bt_uk you are one of the worst

  • damdanowich Dam (@damdanowich) reported

    Has anything happened around NG20? I’m getting no service and previously I had full 5G coverage @bt_uk

  • Darth_Bricey Tony Brice (@Darth_Bricey) reported

    @bt_uk Afternoon BT. I'm reluctant to wait another 30 mins in call queue when I've just signed up for a costly sub with yourselves. Would you be able to advise me why I only received a wifi expander disc and not the secondary hub for the backup router on my Halo service?

  • damdanowich Dam (@damdanowich) reported

    @bt_uk So far I noticed problems with mobile only.

  • Darth_Bricey Tony Brice (@Darth_Bricey) reported

    @bt_uk Is there a reason my friend has two then? One main hub and one that goes in the back of his and is used to connect to open zone (I assume) if his home internet goes down. I was told that I had guaranteed internet if there ever was a problem and assumed that's how it works?!?!

  • NewTechJourney NewTechJourney (@NewTechJourney) reported

    @bt_uk can you tell me rent your fibre to the house broadband can’t cope with music being streamed and online gaming at once? Your service will soon be terminated. Useless

  • traceywinterton Tracey Winterton (@traceywinterton) reported

    @bt_uk Absolutely awful service today! 😡 Sister in law told she is paying for broadband that she doesn’t have but was told there’s nothing you can do about it despite being told by one of your team that this would be taken off her bill. Please sort this.

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you for the quick response. Tried BT once more (that's THREE TIMES today) and got lucky - the agent understood the problem and is removing the marker. There is a training gap in your call centre, agents saying it was a @Plusnet mistake when it was theirs.
