Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Penwortham and nearby locations:

  • 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.

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    Think @bt_uk and @WeAreOpenreach @OpenreachHelp are trolling us now. 12th day with no phone or broadband. Date keeps slipping, now to 6th September. I phone they say they'll be doing it today. Engineer in our cabinet knows nothing. Vans all around area. No fix. Sick. Of. This.

  • thewolstencroft Michael Wolstencroft (@thewolstencroft) reported from Southport, England

    Been without broadband for a month, BT complaints team meant to ring today before 14:30 obviously no call. Currently on hold for 15 minutes. Absolute joke of a service @bt_uk

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    Hey @bt_uk there is a line fault at my mother in law's in CW7 3 (winsford). Her emergency call button is connected to line. Can you prioritise this fault if possible? Thanks!

  • franners82 frances whitehead (@franners82) reported from Garstang, England

    I thinking finding a needle in a haystack would be easier than finding the login page to watch #btsport online @btsportfootball @btsport #impossible #bestkeptsecretever

  • KerryM811 K e r r i (@KerryM811) reported from Horwich, England

    @bt_uk Hi, my internet is running painfully slow - I’ve done a speed test that’s coming back at 32, but I can’t connect on my devices, also whilst watching Netflix/Prime it’s buffering. Could you arrange a booster for me so I can give that a try before finding a new provider?

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    4 days without a phoneline or broadband since @bt_uk @WeAreOpenreach changed our telegraph pole last week. I realise it is a #FirstWorldProblem but terrible service and communication from a huge Comms company. Also the pole isnt straight!

  • storm_imaging Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk Well, it looks like I’m getting a new account set up. No idea why as I have correspondence to the new address about my move. As long as I don’t lose service.

  • storm_imaging Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi. I moved home and had my services transferred. No problem. Today I have received an email saying I will be charged for ending the contract early and received another email about returning kit?

  • samihowarth sami (@samihowarth) reported from Brinscall, England

    @bt_uk Not very helpful as that’s for broadband and phone line. I have no signal on my mobile phone?

  • cdfalexander Colin Alexander🎬🎵🕹️🚗🏃 (@cdfalexander) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    Just been told by @bt_uk that @WeAreOpenreach @OpenreachHelp won't be able to fix our fault (caused by them changing telegraph pole) until tomorrow. That'll be 8 days without service. Incredible. #openreach

  • BaptistBecker1 Spezza (@BaptistBecker1) reported from Southport, England

    Just seem a few snippets from the @btsport punditry panel after the game last night. Thank **** I was at anfield and not listening to that

  • jdnwils Jordan Wilson (@jdnwils) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @btsport going on about Randolph like he's never played football before. Pretty sure he's an international and has bags of premier league experience. @themoderndaygk what do you think?

  • YorkLassinLancs Yorkshire Lass (@YorkLassinLancs) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @bt_uk I have had a complaint in about my below performance broadband since Oct. it’s an insult that your current advert promises so much when I can’t get what I am paying for now. How do I get one person’s contact details to get this resolved??

  • tonyknowles36 Tony Knowles (@tonyknowles36) reported from Blackburn, England

    @jimwilkz @btsport Worst part of it is Glenn McGrath attempting to be nice and gracious when talking about England. Jeez, he was the biggest 'Pommie' basher of them all!

  • MrsW64242123 @MrsW (@MrsW64242123) reported from Penwortham, England

    @bt_uk hi any indication when customer access to br email will be restored?

  • savigar_michael Michael savigar (@savigar_michael) reported from Leyland, England

    @TheRunningManZ @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk I remember when we had them down our street I had internet problem even though iam with plus net .

  • sgx12 Stuart Graham (@sgx12) reported from Longridge, England

    @bt_uk hi, is there an issue accessing subscription internet channels on BT TV. I have VIP package on 2 MyView boxes, both are showing status as connected to internet, however I cannot access any subscription channels (I.e. Now TV, BT Sports) on either box. Help?

  • storm_imaging Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi, I’ve had an ongoing issue with a home move since last week. Apparently it’s being dealt with - this morning I’ve just received an email asking if I want the move cancelled. I don’t. I’m in the property. I’ve been messaging about this for some days now.

  • MrsW64242123 @MrsW (@MrsW64242123) reported from Penwortham, England

    @BTCare any indication When customer access to email will be restored?

  • Dan_Gray Danny Gray (@Dan_Gray) reported

    @btsportfootball @btsport No BT Sport app on the LG store for the TV, and it won't let me cast from macbook to tv because you banned it. Why do I pay for you instead of just using another service?

  • Tomahol1 Tom Holland (@Tomahol1) reported

    Day 44 since my @bt_uk internet dropped. 5 missed resolution dates. £43.35 spent on no service. £352.80 owed in compensation. @WeAreOpenreach SSKMD MSO active for 98 days. #BT have not provided internet for 8% of my total broadband contract. #stilloffline

  • TrevorDonnelly T.A. Donnelly (@TrevorDonnelly) reported

    You have to admire the ***** of a company - @bt_uk - who fail to provide the promised service and then try to charge over £500 for cancelling! @WhichUK

  • hbmansour13 Houssam B (@hbmansour13) reported

    @bt_uk said they’ll give me a partial refund and as the device is out of warranty - in line with consumer law. So again, if you buy an @Apple product from an authorised retailer & it’s faulty after 1 year, you will have to pay for the repair & @Apple will do NOTHING to help 3/3

  • ulookingatmefu DR (@ulookingatmefu) reported

    @bt_uk you have lost a customer today. Shocking price rises announced given people's circumstances at the moment. Pure greed and profiteering. Please tell me am I able to cancel now given the size of increases? Or do I need to wait till the end of my contract?

  • SwarbRacer96 Swarb#96 Racer Anglo/Italian 🇪🇺🇮🇹🇬🇧🏁🏁 (@SwarbRacer96) reported

    @btsport Help me out here! BTSport App ipad won't access test match replay - error VC526 - all other content works. Test match works on phone but I want to watch on bigger screen. Everything reset, tried tethering to 4G nothing. I watch test cricket for the serenity....

  • buzzy13 Buster Street (@buzzy13) reported

    @bt_uk I was advised to raise an official complaint which I agreed to, then was told I would have to wait for a letter within 54 days…. 3 hours later received an email stating my complaint was now closed.

  • hbmansour13 Houssam B (@hbmansour13) reported

    @bt_uk I did get in touch - I spoke to 2 people and they were cold and said we won’t do anything for you but offer a partial refund AFTER we’ve done our own tests. I have a report from @apple proving the manufacturer fault and no misuse or water damage identified. 1/2

  • ulookingatmefu DR (@ulookingatmefu) reported

    @simplyjambo @bt_uk It is shocking. Pure greed and profiteering. I like you will cancel now if possible and if not then later.

  • CD_Strickland Chris Strickland (@CD_Strickland) reported

    @btsport @EE I can't watch your content now because you're systems think I'm outside the UK. I am unfortunately still in the UK. Please help
