    @bt_uk I get bad reception problems on BBC 4 and BBC News channels in the evening, both of which I use a lot. I have rebooted box, checked all my leads. Signal quality/strength is fine in mornings but in evening quality is 10% or less and pic and sound cut out.

    Anyone with @BTCare for tv? Is it any good? Can you still schedule record and all that jazz? @sky have DOUBLED my bill even though I am a 'Loyal Customer'

    @bt_uk You are very condescending right now. My household can’t do our jobs because of your crap service. And it’s fibre optic broadband. Drs & supermarket staff are working through the pandemic too. We can’t today & tomorrow because of a full outage. Don’t be ignorant with your replies

  • 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

  • edwardwoodhouse
    Edward Woodhouse (@edwardwoodhouse) reported from Poplar, England

    @bt_uk we were told our wifi would go live today. It hasn’t. We were also given a mini hub which doesn’t work. Please can you help us sort this?

  • Maddygoesmad

    @bt_uk is there a problem with WiFi? I can’t connect. Tried trouble shooting but nothing other than a solid orange light.

  • OrignalBabydoll
    Kafayat Toks MamaBear🐻 Timson🇳🇬🇸🇱🇬🇧 (@OrignalBabydoll) reported from Croydon, England

    @BTCare please not I will be expecting a refund for the lack of internet service all day today which I’ve been told won’t be fixed till tomorrow. The outage has affected working from home and online university lectures

  • 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?

  • SimonMonger
    Simon Monger, SCMP (He/Him) (@SimonMonger) reported from Poplar, England

    @howiejk @bt_uk Most still blame COVID, which I think after two years is a poor excuse.

  • IngridMarsh_
    Ingrid Marsh (@IngridMarsh_) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk I've been on the phone with your consultant for nearly an hour trying to submit a complaint. I've stressed on no less than ten occasions that I wish to do so. He has tried to sell me other packages and have put me on hold FOUR times. Still no luck! Please urgently advise.

  • 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?

  • DLion1986
    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!

  • Jon_Edwards_
    Jon Edwards (@Jon_Edwards_) reported from Bromley, England

    Congratulations to @bt_uk for providing THE worst customer experience ever. Meant to be connected today, complete shambles. Unhelpful customer service, blatant lies, refusal to resolve issue and refusal to let me speak to a manager. Great start!!

  • SamVerissimo

    @btsport that’s bs, terrible decision.

  • 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 !!!

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

    Yet again wifi has gone down. Again. Halo package from @bt_uk is worthless! 😡

    Restore Britain Moray (@theFMofficer) reported

    @bt_uk Hi BT. I'm eligible for BT Home Essentials, but I'm not a BT or EE customer. I need to apply online as I can't use the phone due to a disability. I can't find an online application for new customers. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks. @Ofcom

  • nooneatnowhere
    noone@nowhere (@nooneatnowhere) reported

    @bt_uk If it's not installed at the 3rd attempt we are going to the ombudsman. BT and Openreach cannot communicate with each other and neither can tell the customer what is happening...or worse, what is NOT happening!

    @bt_uk I did that last Monday. 5 days of a complaint and still nothing . Everything seems sub contacted and nobody takes ownership.
