    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

    David Hall (@SmarProcurement) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    For me @btsport have taken the mantle from @talkSPORT for the worst cricket coverage. Matt Smith is a good football presenter but is clearly not a cricket follower and the commentary they are using from Fox is terrible. If @bbctms can send their to team to Australia why not BT?

    @virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?

    Hi @bt_uk, I moved in my new house two weeks today and I still have no internet and your doing nothing to fix it. I have had to cancel Sky twice and they are booked this Friday. I would like this sorted with an engineer visit tomorrow.

    Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

    @MSANNCOOPER @jojojoheeley @bt_uk Ring #BBCFakeNews. Im sure they'll be able to help you out. Don't waste your time ringing. Don't pay the bill if you don't owe it. Let them take you to Court: they'll lose.

    Tamara Watts (@timtamw88) reported from Blyth, England

    @bt_uk are the most incompetent company. I’m only a month into my contract and I want to cancel already. Terrible customer service, they just pass you to another dept and then your back to the start. I’ve never rang a company so much to get something sorted. #terrible

  • MrsP1001
    MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

    Richard (@iceman500000) reported

    @btbusinesscare glad to know your billing team couldn’t wait to go home instead of resolving our issue which is part of an on-going complaint, I have had to shut the business for the night and cancel a birthday party whilst they went home

  • eaters2009
    Eaters (@eaters2009) reported

    @bt_uk This is not acceptable. You told me to phone you regarding my issue. I tried last night and again this morning on 5 or 6 occasions. I can’t spend the whole day trying to get through. Put more people on the line.

  • HounslowParking
    Asif Rana (@HounslowParking) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve told your complaint handlers I’m not spending one more minute of my time talking to anyone from BT. Even recalling any part of this mess will make me lose my temper and I’ve already spent hours. My monthly bills have gone from £125 to over £500. Why? BT has no answer.

  • DavidB25778
    David Banner (@DavidB25778) reported

    @bt_uk If anyone reads this to research whether or not to use BT for broadband, don't use them. Appalling service from all parts of the business that blames openreach. Terrible service from a terrible company.

  • Kernn_Dawg
    kernip ✌ (@Kernn_Dawg) reported

    @bt_uk you’re existing customer price promise is a scam, your customer service is a mess and you have 0 loyalty for your long term existing customer. Get in the bin. Moving to @skytv asap.
