    @bt_uk the worst service in the UK. I’m still getting bills for a service I stopped in January. Absolutely shambolic. I stopped being a customer 3 months ago yet here I am on hold to BT. What a joke.

    @bt_uk No. As I've proved all I needed was a new hub. After being a BT customer for 20+ years. I'm looking forward October when my contract finishes. You have a good day.

    @bt_uk Told “it’s not working, it’s been like this for months and we can’t fix it, loads of people are having this issue”. Talk about customer service 🤯🙈

  • Tubularswells
    Tubularswells (@Tubularswells) reported

    @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp unacceptable 7+ day broadband outage. Newborn at home, baby monitor offline, clear vulnerability risk. Already diagnosed fault. Need urgent escalation, 4G backup and review for full fibre upgrade. Considering switching provider.

  • UppaRocket
    Rocket (@UppaRocket) reported

    @bt_uk can't get into my account ever since you updated your system, so my bill is now overdue due to your issues

  • cakey12
    bakerbird  (@cakey12) reported

    @bt_uk been trying for 3 days now see my bill. Please don’t tell me you are not aware of any problems. How about telling me how this can be resolved. You emailed to say bill is available ……. All I get is 3 dancing dots !!!!!

  • JSads1983
    James Sadler (@JSads1983) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you, but these were engineers, who wanted to gain access to my home even though I hadn't approved a visit. When asked for ID, they became rude. They left and then attempted to come back later. Again, with no ID or any official looking job sheet.

  • MerriganAnn
    Ann Merrigan (@MerriganAnn) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk I want to give a shout out to Andy in your cancellation dept. Very helpful and resolved both my issues. Was night and day compared to the guy I spoke to a week ago

    Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reported

    @bt_uk you then went onto confirm to refuse to cancel the Digital Voice appointment even though your records show the telecare equipment hasn’t been upgraded yet and that the notes say I’ll be in touch when it is. Rep went on to say we might be left without a line, like a threat

    Stockport871 (@stockport871) reported

    @bt_uk Hello, yesterday I highlighted I needed some extra support and the reasons why are on my account. I had a message to direct message you and you’d get back to me but you haven’t, any chance of hearing anything back? I’m now 8 days over the promised call back from a serious issue.
