    Janet E Baldwin 🌸 (@JanetEBaldwin) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @fiftyminus2 @Tobyamori2011 I had a similar problem with my elderly Dad’s phone. I had to take to Twitter. To be fair @BTCare we’re very helpful.

  • KaraWillow
    Kara Godfrey (@KaraWillow) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk we have now been without internet for a week and just had the rudest customer service advisor essentially say there was nothing you can do. This is appalling service, what do you suggest we do?

  • BrixtonBobbyBob
    Christiana 🕷Activist Lawyer (@BrixtonBobbyBob) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk my internet is dropping out all the time (this morning 5 times in two hours) and the extra thing I pay for for “unbreakable wifi” isn’t doing anything AND my landline is still down … what is going on?

  • JohnnyDowling10
    Johnny Dowling (@JohnnyDowling10) reported from Croydon, England

    It's amazing that between March and May @skytv put my bill up by £12.47 a month without even a notification! Over 14% increase for no change in service at all - odd behaviour considering I am out of contract. Hey there @bt_uk and @VirginMedia_TV

  • lorraine_acorn
    lorraine langridge (@lorraine_acorn) reported from Longfield and New Barn, England

    @bt_uk no idea why my wifi is again intermittent! Pay for Halo package yet still poor connections and I’m trying to work. Really fed up of it now!

  • BrixtonBobbyBob
    Christiana 🕷Activist Lawyer (@BrixtonBobbyBob) reported from Lambeth, England

    @nattynats1 @bt_uk Yes that’s what I’ve had… If they know the fault will be fixed by 2 Feb, why can’t they fix it now?

  • BrixtonBobbyBob
    Christiana 🕷Activist Lawyer (@BrixtonBobbyBob) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk I understand it’s in the whole area so that’s not much use is it? A fault of a few hours is one thing… this will be 10 days of outage in central London.

  • DaveB_mcfc
    DaveB🇧🇼 (@DaveB_mcfc) reported from Longfield, England

    Our broadband has been on/off daily since 16/12 but despite being given a fix date of 06/01 at 1pm this has now passed and the fault checker now says you are unable to give a new date. Can you give update confirm what compensation we are entitled to and how we claim it. @.bt_uk

  • livefr33diehard
    C.N. (@livefr33diehard) reported from Bromley, England

    @bt_uk excellent customer service from Tom this morning. Refreshing to actually have people who are committed to solving your problem. Best experience I’ve had with BT and I’ve been a customer for 6yrs +. Just to add it wasn’t the outcome I wanted but can’t fault Tom for trying!

  • LPESSN
    LPESSN (@LPESSN) reported from Camberwell, England

    @ashley_jp_83 @TKASMrShepherd @RaynerSport At the end of the day it all boils down to TV money. Both Sky and BTSport wanted the games back as they weren’t going to pay the full amount. Women’s game would have been easier to restart.

  • TheStarPA
    The Star PA (@TheStarPA) reported from Poplar, England

    @bt_uk I have been trying to help a client with their complaint for long time. It includes a residential and a business account. It has been impossible to follow up over the phone. It seems that the only department available is sales. Could you please tell me what to do next? Thx

  • SteffanDutch
    steffan Dutch (@SteffanDutch) reported from Bromley, England

    @vmfieldtech @CraigHarper0105 @btsport Don’t go there Craig - I’m with them and it’s terrible. Utilisation issues in my area for over 6 months that they keep promising to fix with dates continually moving.

  • Dhammadinna
    Dhammadinna (@Dhammadinna) reported from Poplar, England

    @bt_uk I talked to BT re changing the account holder, who had died. Was told needed new contract, credit check, but no loss of service. Cut off that night told not connected for 10 days! People work from home! Help!

  • BrixtonBobbyBob
    Christiana 🕷Activist Lawyer (@BrixtonBobbyBob) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk any news on when the Brixton BT outage is going to be dealt with?

  • DaveB_mcfc
    DaveB🇧🇼 (@DaveB_mcfc) reported from Longfield, England

    @bt_uk Despite being told at 1pm that problem is sorted, broadband goes down again at 8pm. Text service says incoming line is fine so it must be our router, but your online fault checker says there is still a problem. Told to ring back tomorrow at 8am. Not good enuf, sort it out !!!

  • JTyrrell_
    Joe Tyrrell (@JTyrrell_) reported from Lambeth, England

    @btsport @bt_uk are you going to fix your PS5 app out any time soon?! I pay for the BT Sport subscription yet I cannot watch any live games. It’s been months now!!

  • prof_j_mitchell
    John Mitchell (@prof_j_mitchell) reported from Bromley, England

    day two of broadband down from @bt_uk Promised call back from @bt_uk FTTC team failed to materialise. FTTP team have lost notes from hour on the phone yesterday and want to send an engineer out again! You couldn’t make this up!

  • Dhammadinna
    Dhammadinna (@Dhammadinna) reported from Poplar, England

    @bt_uk We are a Buddhist community who always pay our bills. Not relatives of deceased, so new account, told switch was 1st September but reassured no loss of service. Everyone working from home. Called BT - told ‘nothing they can do’.

    DreamLion1986 (@DLion1986) reported from Stratford, England

    @btsport @btsportfootball lol why can’t the commentators be honest and just say even with injuries team selection have been poor and they are a victim of there own ego!

  • ChemTeachCGO
    Craig Goddard (@ChemTeachCGO) reported

    @bt_uk It seems that since it moved to HBO Max, this is no longer the case & is now baked into my contract alongside broadband. I don't recall at any time being asked about this & I have always understood it to be a rolling commitment. Please explain this situation and how I can cancel.

  • _BudeBee
    BudeBee (@_BudeBee) reported

    @bt_uk Terrible service from BT. - No broadband service for 4 days - Broadband speed was less than 10Mbps since I moved in - Not been able to get compensation for either issue

    @bt_uk On line service wasn't very good I disconnected overnight. When I woke up I plugged it back. It's now returned to blue. All good thanks.

  • stevetaylor10
    Steve Taylor (@stevetaylor10) reported

    I have to say if I gave my customers the same service that I'm receiving from @bt_uk I really would not have a business left.

  • DJDinamique
    DJ Dinamique 🇫🇷 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 💙 (@DJDinamique) reported

    @CarersUK @bt_uk What I don't understand is now @bt_uk are moving people to VOIP (because that's what it is) they still have that idea that you can only have an hour free even though if you hang up at 59 minutes and call again it remains free. It feels like a trap.

  • bartman6669
    Bartman6669 (@bartman6669) reported

    @bt_uk MUST DO BETTER. Charging my mother whose husband is terminally ill £75 a month for broadband. Called them and they stated best they can do is £52 when offering NEW customers £29. 40 years a customer and they don’t care about her. @telegraph @TheSun

  • ClarkeDdmthe1st
    shullup it worked out (@ClarkeDdmthe1st) reported

    @bt_uk now being told there’s a area fault that will take a week to fix?! A WEEK. Forget using this service and forget using @EE as providers. No urgency at all. Pathetic

  • Alex_CK2
    alex (@Alex_CK2) reported

    @BT_UK My parents been without WiFi for 3 days. They were told it was billing issue despite paying and having proof. Today my mum was passed between 5 people, blaming either billing or a copper wire switch. No fix, no warning, despite paying hundreds each month. Awful service.

    @measlewolf @bt_uk Steve @bt_uk are a terrible company, they did the same with my mom & dad,hours of calls & still couldn't rectify what they'd done,they disconnected their phone & then promised they would reconnect it with the same number they'd had for 50 years....1 year ago & they still haven't
