  • Natalieball1984 NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk absolutely appalling customer service to my mum who had shielded since March 2020! She can't use BT sports anymore and BT are saying £130+ to remove it!! She doesn't have any money! She is stressed, immune compromised and BT drop this on her! Shameful!

  • ippyfuzion Leon Ip (@ippyfuzion) reported from Newport, Wales

    @bt_uk No known issue. Since there was BT van outside my home doing some sort of upgrade on the copper wires of the area. Internet been very poor. Already replaced router twice. When gaming on PC with ethernet cable plug in and someone makes a WhatsApp call my ping spikes to 500ms!

  • GhGriff27 Gavin (@GhGriff27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport I can't access my bt sport app. I pay for "Large Screen" on my phone to cast to my tv but have not been able to use it. Please help.

  • BigBernie4 Greg (Big Bernie) MW7BUF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇵🇸 (@BigBernie4) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @bt_uk no service all afternoon in the NP19 7LT area. Checked the status page, no known issues apparently. Tried to speak with an advisor, and there are none available. What's happening please?

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • johnsey80 Steve Johns (@johnsey80) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I'm not a @bt_uk customer but spoke to Payel via their chat service today to help my sister out. Above and beyond customer service, a credit to the company. Thank you Payel & BT

  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • Dai_ssrs Dai Williams (@Dai_ssrs) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    Did Liverpool have problems at centre back last season? Because I don’t think @btsport have mentioned it yet

  • Hanlccook Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @bt_uk the light on my hub is purple and has been all afternoon. I’ve turned it on and off multiple times. Still no internet. Can someone help me please!

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • Hanlccook Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk Hey there! No it’s still not working 🥺 however, I’m moving out of my house tomorrow and Into my new one. I’ve already spoke to an advisor about this a few weeks back but I’m not sure what to do? There’s no point ringing for an engineer when I’m moving. Shall we DM?

  • jocra14 John Crabtree (@jocra14) reported from Clevedon, England

    @Tonysmini @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk We were supposed to have an engineer visit on the 18 Dec 2020 and that never happened. I asked BT to arrange an engineer last week and they said no need.

  • WPTutz WPTuts (@WPTutz) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @bt_uk not happy that my broadband upload speed has dropped by nearly 70%... As a key factor to paying for the service, this is unacceptable! 👎

  • MoggyMarshman Moggy🛸🪐🚀👁️⃤ (@MoggyMarshman) reported from Newbridge, Wales

    @garethcollier @btsport I’m allowed down Monday to sort it all out & give it a good clean .. I wanna take nice pics then aswel to rent it .. but the actual day is April 12th it’s open ..

  • MissESilcox MissESilcox (@MissESilcox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Henllys, Wales

    Shocking service from @bt_uk - no phone or internet for a week! Vulnerable adult here and nobody cares! welfare - ref C37677360 - only comms I'm getting is from Dave at @OpenreachHelp ! Sort it out BT!

  • darth_noga Noga Fett (@darth_noga) reported from Barry, Wales

    Absolutely shocking service from @virginmedia a 47% price increase for a customer of over 25 years and would rather lose a customer than give us a deal that new customers get. @BTCare @SkyHelpTeam can you do any better?

  • jocra14 John Crabtree (@jocra14) reported from Clevedon, England

    @Tonysmini @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk It was until last weekend but now it’s flashing. I’m told the issue is that Openreach have the wrong s/n attached to the property and Bt give them the correct one but it doesn’t get updated

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Pontnewydd, Wales

    @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk over to you. Can you put in writing what the problem is please? You refused yesterday. @OpenreachHelp are listening and want to help.

  • V1nkerz V. (@V1nkerz) reported

    @bt_uk I've literally had a better experience with some underground no name network. Power leads to Sloth.

  • leftoutside2 oldone (@leftoutside2) reported

    @bt_uk Still needs tidying up, homes still have problems with wifi drop.

  • HadmanDynasty Matt Hadman (@HadmanDynasty) reported

    @bt_uk Your service is utterly disgraceful. This is the third time now in the last 6 weeks I’ve had to report a fault because my phone line isn’t working. The fault is always at the exchange and leaves me without a phone line for 3-4 days at a time. SORT IT OUT.

  • James_Wyatt James Wyatt (@James_Wyatt) reported

    How do you escalate at complaint with @bt_uk ? 75Mb broadband running at max 4Mb for a MONTH now and BT don't seem to care & are lying to me.

  • 58ALL Mervyn58 (@58ALL) reported

    @aitch_R_aitch @bt_uk did he fix it?

  • brtel37 brtel 🗺 (@brtel37) reported

    @bt_uk @educationgovuk Paying top price as a loyal customer for very poor internet connection that keeps cutting out with a uni student trying to finish his degree. How about you stop robbing us blind while your at it & stop charging for speeds that don't exist.

  • teenaantoniou Teena Antoniou (@teenaantoniou) reported from Walthamstow, England

    .@BTCare are you available to help on broadband issues? You don’t answer calls and there are no online booking slots. Halo is supposed to have 24hr help?!?!

  • dreamendstate Paul Smith (@dreamendstate) reported

    heads up, @bt_uk isn’t doing any fibre installations during lockdown but forgetting to tell customers. I’m leaving @virginmedia because of terrible customer service, so not a great start. 😬

  • simonkingmedia Simon King (@simonkingmedia) reported

    @bt_uk I’m paying for Complete Wi-Fi and can’t connect. Can you help and how do I get my £100 fee for Complete Wi-Fi being a joke?

  • IanRElliot Ian Elliot (@IanRElliot) reported

    With BBC offer I think internet companies like @SkyHelpTeam and @bt_uk need to offer a basic lockdown length specific cheap internet package with school work and shopping sites free to use. Help where you can
