    @bt_uk is Internet down NE30

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @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.

  • chewytheleftie Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk I can’t wait for next month when I get another bill for a service I cancelled in January

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk Listen. It's an ongoing joke. There isn't one company I've worked for where it's not an issue. 30% of my time is dealing with billing. I'll use my account team. Just wanted to vent.

  • Northlander74 𝔖𝔱𝔢𝔭𝔥𝔢𝔫 𝔍. 𝔍𝔞𝔠𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔰 (@Northlander74) reported from Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, England

    @bt_uk It wasn't the app, but because I can't get a mobile signal to sign in before it will allow me to use the WIFI, the app just keeps timing out with that error

  • Northlander74 𝔖𝔱𝔢𝔭𝔥𝔢𝔫 𝔍. 𝔍𝔞𝔠𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔰 (@Northlander74) reported from Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, England

    @bt_uk I've only just received this message as I have no signal when away from home

  • dellynel niall (@dellynel) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @bt_uk we just tried to cancel @bt tv and internet today as the prices have been put up only to be told we are tied in until the New Year or it will cost us £600 Yearly fixed term contract can't cancel complete and utter con

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.

  • nickcubs70 nick (@nickcubs70) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    ******* hell @btsport you’ve been absolutely dreadful. The worst thing about tonight for sure.

  • wilko1999 Angela Wilkinson🍃💚🍃 (@wilko1999) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk It was not a missed appointment it was a total failure of communication. Someone could have contacted me so I could have stayed at work. Now I have an unreliable service over a Bank Holiday weekend and another planned appt for next Wednesday.

  • SoSureSewell sewellpaul@lfc (@SoSureSewell) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Shocking service from @bt_uk. No compassion at all from you as a company. Lost my job & my home and now you want to destroy my credit scores. Nearly £500 charges for leaving early. 8 months in to a 24 month contact does not seem fair to me 😥😥

  • 1ONEBOBBYROBSON davidnufc22 (@1ONEBOBBYROBSON) reported from Dunston, England

    who ******** is that idiot commentator on #btsport @btsport she hasnt got a clue #NUFC

    @bt_uk No I haven't as I've never been anywhere near a BT WIFI Access Point and only relied on mobile network signal

  • 66_mazza Mazza 66 (@66_mazza) reported from Walker Gate, England

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller (@geemiller71) reported from South Shields, England

    Still got sync problems on @btsport on my #firestick @ee. Not a happy bunny. Pay for this aswell .

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    When I go to hell. I know what's waiting for me. It's the guys and girls at #BT billing. And I'm destined to unravel the web of **** for all eternity. @bt_uk

  • chewytheleftie Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Gateshead, England

    @btbusinesscare I moved house in December, you failed to move my Internet so spectacularly that mid January I cancelled the non existing internet. I’ve been sent bills in February & March that I’ve had to phone about. Im just trying to warn other people how bad your service is.

  • chewytheleftie Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Gateshead, England

    @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.

  • IamaDeliveryMan Mike (@IamaDeliveryMan) reported

    @bt_uk wow again. How long should I normally expect to wait for a complaint to be acknowledged? Do you just keep closing complaints by email so as to meet targets rather than help customers. Why is it impossible to get any reasonable answers?

  • EHChalus Prof Elaine Chalus (@EHChalus) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, I know these are wireless speed tests. Do I have to do them all wired to show you the the connection is still varying? I don't think the problem is with the equipment. I think the problem is with the line and capacity or cross-talk/interference. There must be a reason

  • yulia_bulgakova Yulia (@yulia_bulgakova) reported

    @bt_uk Trying to sort this out now but it's pretty outrageous that you shut down internet on behalf of someone else requesting it and without notifying or giving few days warning to the current account holder. Essentially anyone can cancel internet at any house under this system.

  • ErikaSanderson Erika Sanderson (@ErikaSanderson) reported

    @LucySweetman @bt_uk Is the internet having a bad day today? Everything is so painfully slooooooowwww at the moment. Lost an evening’s rehearsal last night cos it kept crashing out. 🤬

  • yulia_bulgakova Yulia (@yulia_bulgakova) reported

    @bt_uk There was definitely no contact and it was a complete surprise this morning when email came through saying the internet is shut down.

  • Vintage_BM the flower decorative (@Vintage_BM) reported

    Absolutely sick and tired of being fobbed off by @Plusnet @bt_uk @MartinSLewis can you help

  • RoryMuir3 Rory Muir (@RoryMuir3) reported

    @EHChalus @bt_uk We had a similar problem which was solved (fingers crossed) by going onto a cheaper plan that promised slower broadband (but still faster than we were generally getting). Apparently when we were on the faster plan the system kept having a tantrum (at least that’s cont.

  • vpani_info Heather Greig (@vpani_info) reported

    @bt_uk received info on changeover to Digital Voice. Can you still make an emergency call using this? Is there a reduction in my bill as service is being integrated into existing broadband and no further use of copper line?

  • LucySweetman Lucy Sweetman (@LucySweetman) reported

    Oh my God the broadband rage. I have just spent 30 mins in one of those painful online chat things during which the @bt_uk oppo spent too much time trying to flog me a new package and not enough time sorting out the effing problem. I’m trying to work and now I’m feeling stabby.
