  • taylersant Tayler (@taylersant) reported from Newburn, England

    @bt_uk have been waiting three weeks for our internet to be installed, nobody turns up for appointment today, ring up to be spoken down too and told nobody was booked in so I need to rebook!!!! Worst customer service ever and having a nightmare before we even get our broadband!!!

  • QlikStu Stuart Wannop (@QlikStu) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to fibre 500, getting 120mbps on average. Slower than my previous BT package. Been told speed cannot be accurately measured into my hub. Still in cooling off period anything else I can try before I cancel it ?

  • kennydude Joe Simpson (@kennydude) reported from Seaham, England

    @quidco If you could also sort the communication problem between yourselves and @bt_uk that’d be great.

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Why aren’t you dealing with our issue after 6 days without business broadband? Disgraceful service as our business is at a standstill with no replies or urgency!

  • lornafaym lornafay (@lornafaym) reported from Seaham, England

    Absolutely shocking customer service from @bt_uk this morning. Glad I was already calling to cancel but being ranted at, demanded to re-consider and called crazy just put the nail in the coffin.

  • unclenobheadCB Philip Robinson (@unclenobheadCB) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Fully subscribed to @btsport for several years now but I refuse to watch another @NUFC **** show! #bruceout #EVENEW

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @PaulCaden1 and the students home Wi-fi likely no better either! I’m having to drive into work any day I am delivering online outreach presentations to schools or at online conferences as our home Wi-fi is so poor.....😳 @bt_uk?

  • WASNAPPER Martin (@WASNAPPER) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    2 days on & off now sitting listening to crap music. Not by choice but trying to report another fault to @plusnethelp service used to be good but garbage since @bt_uk got involved

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk Do you think you could address the problem of your BTtv EPG in relation to entries by @DiscoveryUK. Entries misleading in time, length of prog, capital letters, no synopsis and unable to "record the series". Do you care?

  • AdvancedIFA Advanced IFA Ltd (@AdvancedIFA) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btsport your service is terrible. Got billed £80 asked them to close account. Never watched it since pre lockdown 1 and today another £80 bill. Advised pay it or debt collectors will arrive then dispute it after payment. Very bad service. Still on hold 47mins to disconnect????

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare guess what? Promised a phone call 1 hour after I spoke to your team on the phone at 10am and they haven’t rang back. You are exceeding my expectations of being the worst service provider in the UK right now 👏

  • baldymanali Alastair Smith (@baldymanali) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk just received email from you saying my email will be suspended if I don't login. I read emails on your new (and I might say, useless) ap every day. Have complained about it previously. Get it sorted

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Whitburn, England

    @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

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare I love the way you’ve got to speak to 5 people and none of them can give you a straight answer on when your connection will be live again. It’s like the secret service having BT as a business provider. Shocking service BT!

  • stevewallwork Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported from Annfield Plain, England

    @lynseyhipgrave1 @btsport @sjsidwell I think we know the answer to that one Lynsey. Our record is traditionally poor on Boxing Day anyway.

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Still no reply or update when our broadband will be back on. Nearly 7 days without a business connection. Let down everyday by BT 🤬

  • JoeyyUK JoeyUK (@JoeyyUK) reported

    My internet has been down since 12:30am?!! How is this even possible @bt_uk

  • staying_Mum staying_Mum 💙 (@staying_Mum) reported

    @bt_uk WHAT is going on with your service?? Internet Constantly crashing since y'day, & I've been unable to get onto your website to run a/ny "checks" (usually a waste of time anyway as your website is so badly designed). Goodbye from a very-soon to be, Ex Customer.🤬

  • TwistedTim76 Twisted Tim (@TwistedTim76) reported

    @bt_uk I have a query why is it as a long time customer im expected to pay more than £20 extra a month than what new customers have to pay

  • chapman_haydon Haydon Chapman (@chapman_haydon) reported

    Hey @bt_uk so you’re blaming @NOW for not contacting you to end our service with you, even though we gave you the transfer and cancellation date. You have also charged us for 3 months after this cancellation date and refuse to refund us. Criminal! #bt_uk #nowtv

  • csowls carole sutherland (@csowls) reported

    @bt_uk we have been without internet since Sunday , you said it would be fixed by 21/7 but still no joy. When will you Fix it???

  • Ellshakes Ella (@Ellshakes) reported

    @bt_uk Hi, I have had a terrible experience with my Nan today with your customer service chat. Please can you help?

  • atlanta25 Jim Holland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🇺🇦💙😷#FBPE #FBPPR (@atlanta25) reported

    @bt_uk Yet another of your deadlines come and gone. It’s 2 months and 6 days since FTTP was installed and it’s still not working. This must be a new record for appalling service.

  • CoadstaF1 CoadstaF1 💙💛🇺🇦 (@CoadstaF1) reported

    @bt_uk No good. Mine has been unstable since mid June! New filters, new socket, hub and cable. STILL intermittent at best and MIA at worse.

  • TwistedTim76 Twisted Tim (@TwistedTim76) reported

    @bt_uk no im a renewing customer you have a fancy page telling me its gone down just over £1 which means for my fibre i pay 69.99 a month but new customers can have the exact same for £49.99, as you can appreciate im currently thinking im off to @EE full fibre 900m £50
