    @bt_uk Updates? All I know is I went to the GPs after they left and the main road I live off had at least 8 Openreach vans doing repairs. The road my cul-de-sac is off isn’t that long. I was told by one operative there were numerous issues in my area

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

    @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

  • Flaminhaystack Antonia (@Flaminhaystack) reported from London, England

    @jenniseex @bt_uk @virginmedia Yep. I have very poor Internet in my home and pay large prices. Everytime I phone to get it rectified, I'm told there is nothing wrong with the WiFi and my house is the issue. Pathetic. I detest them

  • 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

  • COLFESeconomics COLFESeconomics (@COLFESeconomics) reported from London, England

    @BTCare need urgent help. Builders have inadvertently taken out phone cable so have no phone/internet. Please help!

    @DaveKirwin @bt_uk This one needed a drop of light oil just to help loosen the dial up, but otherwise is in cracking condition

  • OhAthairne Sam Ó hAtháirne (@OhAthairne) reported from Islington, England

    Listening to Glenn hoddle mispronounce names on @btsport is like scraping your finger nails down a blackboard. #cringe

  • DLion1986 DreamLion1986 (@DLion1986) reported from Stratford, England

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

    @bt_uk I’ve tweeted what I tweeted and will be moving on. Your service goes on and off all the time this time it’s completely out. I am talking about why my internet access is important at the moment. And you’re telling me about how engineers are working when it’s literally their job

    @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.

  • rprakoso13 Rendy Prakoso (@rprakoso13) reported from Camden Town, England

    @bt_uk hey got a text saying my broadband should be activated by now but it's still not working and hub is flashing purple. I've checked that it's properly connected to the master socket. Any tests you can run to make sure that the service has actually been activated? Cheers

  • steve2682 Armstrong (@steve2682) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I have been on hold for 33min, is there anyone working in your call centre?? I still have an ongoing internet issue. Your wait times are shocking. Think it’s about time I moved over to @bt_uk

  • A71KUR A.R (@A71KUR) reported from Stratford, England

    @btsport that’s bs, terrible decision.

  • kateMorris102 Kate Morris (@kateMorris102) reported from London, England

    Ok. Watch what you do if you renew your bt tv subscription with @Bt_uk You end up keeping your ageing bt box whereas a new customer will get the brand new BT box Pro.

  • kath_lewis Katherine Mackay (@kath_lewis) reported

    @MaxJamesMackay @bt_uk As an update on this, no one has rung me today as planned. I got a text about ringing to book an engineer then when I spoke to your team they said they would get the manager who I spoke to yesterday to ring me as they never cancelled the order. They haven’t

  • greatgooglymoo greatgooglymoo (@greatgooglymoo) reported

    What is going on @bt_uk? No phone line or wifi for 4 weeks. Not being able to see some family at Christmas due to Covid is one thing, but no signal means we can’t even call or FaceTime my brother or Mum in Australia on Christmas Day. @timfarron is there anything we can do?!

  • xkatyhughes katy hughes (@xkatyhughes) reported

    @bt_uk I have ordered a broadband package with you 4times in the past week!All of them have been cancelled by yourselves,I was promised last Friday a minihub from that has never been posted! After being with sky for 13 years I was giving BT a try but 100% will not recommend to anyone!

  • Sandanista Bob P (@Sandanista) reported

    @BTCare #Fareham Stopping and restarting the hub sometimes works and sometimes it works for a minute then gone. Sometimes getting nameserver errors reported trying to use internet... checking logs etc shows devices being dissociated randomly. Whats going on?

  • hairybeanbag81 darren (@hairybeanbag81) reported

    @therealdele @bt_uk Lucky if they get it sorted or just randomly cancel your order like they did with mine . Still waiting a for a reply to my DM to the Twitter team 😮‍💨

    @btsport I’m having to continuously reset my password just to still not be able to login. Can someone please help with this?

  • Harras69 Pete H (@Harras69) reported

    @bt_uk disappointed to have my order cancelled for the sixth time today. Assured last time it would go through. Is communication between openreach and BT that bad or am I getting fobbed off because it seems all beyond the customer service agents understanding nearly every time🤯
