    @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.

  • andydeltic andy (@andydeltic) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk afternoon folks. I’ve lost connection on my digital phone line. I’ve reset the handset and hub but the issue still exists. Any help would be fab thanks

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • HarrymBarham 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

  • 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.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @bt_uk hello, I've had an ongoing broadband instability issue for around 6 months - frequently when I'm using IP voice applications the service is disrupted - I've tried to raise a fault on this a number of times - help!!

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

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @BTCare I have an ongoing issue with my broadband I've been in touch a few times now, I've done as instructed & have plugged an ethernet cable into my laptop. I'm trying to watch a programme through the BT box on i player and it is just buffering all the time this can't be right

  • d4rryl23 Darryl Arnett (@d4rryl23) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

  • timtamw88 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

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris ⚽️ (@Andymorris74) reported from South Shields, England

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

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

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

  • John_P_Turner John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @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.

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @BTCare we're having loads of problems with our broadband the connection is atrocious we've just paid to rent a film and now it won't play it is through BT is there anything can be done please, plus I need to make sure we are not charged.

  • laaurenmoore94 lauren moore (@laaurenmoore94) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Anyone else’s @btsport crashing all the time on bt sport 1 or is mine just bad! 😂😂pointless having it when that’s the main channel 😂😂😂

  • TVBCJonpaul Jonpaul Heron (@TVBCJonpaul) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Working fine all day, week and month. Now watching #ChampionsLeagueFinal2019 on @btsport on YouTube and it’s now poor. Very interesting.

  • ley_leysmith Ley Smith (@ley_leysmith) reported

    @bt_uk My mum’s BT Broadband and Fixed Line stopping working since @CityFibre has been digging outside her house in Reading. Can this issue be investigated ASAP?

  • Dawg123Dawg Nic (@Dawg123Dawg) reported

    @bt_uk Please arrange for all calls and communications re my complaint, going on for months to be sent to me. These illustrate all failures and I wish to pass on to watchdog and your regulator

  • BurkinshawAnna Anna Burkinshaw (@BurkinshawAnna) reported

    @bt_uk your service is beyond appalling. I am shocked at the number of errors that have been made and the untruths I have been told by your advisors. 7 days (so far) without an internet connection and I work from home. I have never experienced such poor service from a company.

  • dickieguv dickie67 (@dickieguv) reported

    @bt_uk can you help I’m trying to find out why my order hasn’t been complete for transferring my phones over to the cloud for my business been on phone all morning and still not been resolved

  • sleeepwaalker1 Sleeepwaalker (@sleeepwaalker1) reported

    @Veloula @bt_uk That sucks I’m sorry - have you a business account set up, if so, they owe compensation for loss of earnings. But 5£ a day for internet being off, regardless, isn’t enough - Ofcom if they refuse to help

  • danihehir Danielle Hehir (@danihehir) reported

    @bt_uk are a joke. Second time I am tweeting this. Do not go with BT!! Especially if you are a business customer. Business run from home and havent had internet since Monday. They are now saying it may be next Wednesday. Go with anyone else!

  • catchfireswift ellie (@catchfireswift) reported

    @bt_uk still not working, i want it in my bedroom as that is where the wifi doesnt reach, there is no point placing it anywhere else

  • mylifeinwordsuk Lee-Mc (@mylifeinwordsuk) reported

    Getting daily calls, claiming to be from @bt_uk yesterday was about an unpaid bill, today about upgrading internet. Apart from the fact I’ve never been with BT in my life, nor would I ever switch to them. The scammers are getting worse

  • PajorMartin Martin Payor (@PajorMartin) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks but I followed it already...at least tried. As I said before your people on this telephone number provided are (apparently) not able to help and trying to transfer me to the mobile team which apparently is closed (staff shortage)the chat is not working. How bad is that!

  • smichail89 S Michail (@smichail89) reported

    @btbusinesscare Wow. Her service is absolutely diabolical (feel free to screen shot this post as well). One week with no reply.
