    @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.

    Massively disappointed with @bt_uk my mam is in tears with how she has been treated by customer services. Had no phone line for weeks due to a fault then charged loads of timeline charges. Transferred through to a number of staff no one in BT has ever heard of a timeline charge??

    @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.

    Nothing worse when a player dives and the commentators say "they won a foul" .. you are part of the problem @btsport

    @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.

    @bt_uk The most inept company in the UK, call yourselves a communications company ! you couldn’t connect dots on a dot to dot child sheet let alone connect a new build property, customer for over 29 years! useless

    @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?

  • 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.

  • JulieGal1234
    Julie Gallagher (@JulieGal1234) reported from Longbenton, England

    @bt_uk internet has been on and off all day. You say nothing wrong with the line but a quick search says loads of people having problems with their internet.

  • MarkMowbrayNE
    Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Not only is the @bt_uk wifi poor on my smart hub 2 but the lack of channels available is terrible. BT need to sort this out and expand the available WiFi channel choice to prevent neighbours clashing

  • 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.

    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

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

    @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

  • 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.

    @bt_uk absolute crass service you guys have, I have been trying to get a broadband installed for the past 01 month but not getting any update from you guys. Absolutely pathetic service

    Last month we announced our plans to work with @bt_uk and @nvidia to bring sovereign AI infrastructure to the UK. Deploying up to 14MW of NVIDIA-powered compute across three BT sites, connected by their national network, with all data remaining within the UK. 🧵

    @bt_uk Phoned that number and still they trying to fix it on a computer but fault is outside need you to send a engineer that can fix that

  • RaeRubyRaeK
    RaeRubyRae (@RaeRubyRaeK) reported

    @bt_uk Now I can’t log into the website either without giving you my mobile number? What about someone who doesn’t have a mobile number? You’re actively discriminating against people who might not be fully digital. @Ofcom stop allowing BT to pull this crap!

  • e4290936
    jack250213 (@e4290936) reported

    @bt_uk calling itself 'customer centric ' grates with me after an internal transfer of my broadband went horribly wrong, then four hard searches on my creditworthiness and three attempts to get BT broadband and a TV package also successfully completed by phone after a time on the phone that I regret all fell through with no explanation or apology. Customer centric? You are having a laugh BT!

  • 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 !!!!!

  • Staggly
    Paul stagg (@Staggly) reported

    @bt_uk @NRManc they’ve messed up everyone’s account - it be worried they are taking money from old customers so check your bank - they aren’t acknowledging the issue

  • brian_mcbride1
    Brian McBride (@brian_mcbride1) reported

    @TerryPDunn @bt_uk I'm also angry & frustrated that for weeks @BT 'guides' have taken my calls for help and either said they have passed the problem to technical team or latest contact was escalated to complaint & complaint closed within minutes of it being taken.

  • simboman
    Simboman 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@simboman) reported

    @brian_mcbride1 @bt_uk That's similar experience to my 90 year old mother's complaint about digital switchover and contract renewal. Sent a complaint letter to BT plc, PO Box 334, Sheffield, S98 1BT and received a text a couple of weeks later saying the complaint had been closed but with no resolution.
