    James Moss (@UKEmpLawyer) reported from Allt-yr-Yn, Wales

    @omitbdf @bt_uk The person I spoke to from @bt_uk, who eventually called me back, did not know what LOS meant on the Openreach ONT. I had to Google it & informed him it meant Loss of Signal. Pathetic service so far - we still have no WiFi.

    @btbusinesscare Oh, you have no idea how much patience I’ve had to excercise with BT for a few years. Improvements seem to made though, sensible call staff recognising a problem straight off, competent engineer sent ASAP. Just need to sort out recurring problem with local telegraph pole!

    @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp @WeAreOpenreach @BBCXRay @skytv No Broadband, no landline no downloads, no catchup etc, for 6 weeks. Every week it’s a different excuse. This week lightening strike! I’m getting really fed up. Please someone help.🤯

    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

    @bt_uk @Tommy_OConnor You should be ashamed writting that, no sports coverage due to most serious situation we are likely to face in peace time and you want to charge 😱😱😱 On the poor service list you go for when this is over...

    If it wasn’t bad enough watching this it’s made so much worse with this TV coverage. Please never let BT Sport have cricket again 😩 @btsport #ashes @Channel7

    @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.

    @bt_uk the light on my hub is purple and has been all afternoon. I’ve turned it on and off multiple times. Still no internet. Can someone help me please!

  • CitrusArtsUK
    Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    I had at least 3 conversations with staff saying this wouldn't happen, but it happened anyway. Now 3 weeks later of broken promises after broken promise they still can't re-connect us. @bt_uk this is total incompetence and foot dragging to repair your mistakes.

  • 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?

  • Statto1927
    Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, Wales

    Commentator on this match just apologised if any Portuguese speakers are hearing any “fruity” language as can hear players clearly. Going to be a nightmare for @SkySports @btsport commentators when UK football restarts. Will be continually apologising for bad language 🤬

    @btbusinesscare hi bt have you got any idea to stop charge the shops for linerental. Because shop is closed any many other company are not changing the costumer due to covid. I have a restaurant and closed down temporarily but im still paying bt

  • starr3126
    Gareth Starr (@starr3126) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @bt_uk I find since we've had BT Internet it's very poor. Had it installed as Sky didn't do fibre in our area. Trouble with initial installation, which was eventually fixed. WiFi drops out daily, lags when the boys play the xbox or if I'm streaming via the PlayStation. #poor

    Janine Bates (@JanineBates) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk funny how you are supplying data to the nhs workers yet unable to help us switch from you to another provider in the designated time leaving our 15,500 patients unable to get through to us during the pandemic, when they need us most #rumneyprimarycarecentre

    @bt_uk Referring someone to Ofcom when you won’t fix your own issues is not a solution

  • Red_Rescue
    Sebastian Colt (@Red_Rescue) reported

    @bt_uk Speaking to support on the phone anecdotally this seems to be a significant problem. I think the scale of it can be tracked by how many calls last less that a few seconds (due to dead air) or how many pin numbers are requested but not used. (as they are not supplied in time)

  • TenFourEverton
    CFD (@TenFourEverton) reported

    @BTCare your at arrangement with EE WiFi are a joke - asking to verify getting a code then losing the screen before being able to use the code is rubbish! Why do I pay such an exorbitant sum for such crap service? #BTrubbish

  • RaeRubyRaeK
    RaeRubyRae (@RaeRubyRaeK) reported

    @bt_uk You do sell customer info and I can prove it! So I can’t use the app unless I give you my mobile number is that what you’re telling me? There’s no other option?

  • TSLG13007
    TSLG13007 (@TSLG13007) reported

    @bt_uk We have been with BT for decades and never known the customer service this bad. It is too complex to explain on here but after many years, we will be moving supplier

  • ScattyCat
    Di Beirne (@ScattyCat) reported

    @bt_uk Hello - what on earth has happened to the MyBT app? It was bad before, it's even worse now!! Can't find anything useful, the most useful page is very dark, as if there's a screen over it. Really not an upgrade... tell I.T. to design something useful. Do they even check it?

  • maz558
    Sam R (@maz558) reported

    @bt_uk VERY disappointing with the service from your agents! I phoned as I wanted to take my service with me when I moved. Told I needed to take a new contract - 20% more expensive than current one. Told I would have to wait a week without broadband. Then lied to me!

  • DeborahBeb1o5
    Deborah Bebbington (@DeborahBeb1o5) reported

    @bt_uk Internet has been unavailable since yesterday morning, your tech bot is useless and now being told it’s a in-house problem even though it’s an area issue with everyone experiencing issues, been told engineers will be out Monday, there won’t be enough engineers mk

    Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported

    .@bt_uk @WeAreOpenreach WHAT A SHAMBOLIC BUNCH OF HAPLESS BUFFOONS YOU ARE. ALL I WANT IS RAMS AHEAD OF AN INSTALL AS YOU GOT IT WRONG LAST TIME. THEY HAVE BEEN PROMISED BUT NEVER DELIVERED. YOUR 'GUIDES' LIE TO CUSTOMERS. I HAVE EVIDENCE.
