  • andydeltic andy (@andydeltic) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk Morning folks, I’ve lost my full fibre connection. I’ve logged it etc via the website. Is there an issue at the exchange or is this scheduled maintenance? Thanks in advance Andy

  • 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.

  • 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

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

  • 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.

  • paulmac708 Paul Mackie (@paulmac708) reported from Consett, England

    @bt_uk Don't suppose you're having any issues in the Consett area are you? My internet connection just disappeared

  • 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.

  • Martin756901511 Teddy (@Martin756901511) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Hi @bt_uk, I moved in my new house two weeks today and I still have no internet and your doing nothing to fix it. I have had to cancel Sky twice and they are booked this Friday. I would like this sorted with an engineer visit tomorrow.

  • 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 😥😥

  • shedges76 Sam Hedges (@shedges76) reported

    @hartleywintney @Sonos @bt_uk Thanks. Let's hope it's the same for us. Somehow I don't think it will be. Not just multiple devices. Permanent poor speed out in the sticks 🙄

  • Vicky58094154 Vicky Giles (@Vicky58094154) reported

    @garry_wilkinson @bt_uk Funnily enough we are having the same problem. Just as the new adverts are ramping up!

  • mikedalby Mike Dalby (@mikedalby) reported

    @mrjakehumphrey @66KG1 @btsport Be real tho Jake, virtue signal much. Seeking 🙏 for something that should just be a 💯given. Nobody ever wanted/needed BTsport. CL access was faaaaar better when on terrestrial. BT have NO desire to maximise audience, only payments. YOUR charges for “everything else” show that😶

  • ley_leysmith Ley Smith (@ley_leysmith) reported

    @bt_uk BT engineer has been out to assessed and has confirmed that @CityFibre engineers has damaged the cable following dig. This will take up to 2 days to replace damage cable.

  • MartWillWirral Martin Williams (@MartWillWirral) reported

    @bt_uk Didn't think I'd have to report it as the internet is down for the whole neighbourhood. But, I'll do it later.

  • GinoProg Gino (@GinoProg) reported

    @Sylvia_RockShow @bt_uk And yet - in all the ads urging people to join their broadband network - they ask "why wouldn't you?" Well, here's why not!

  • quinacosatu Cristina Riudoms (@quinacosatu) reported

    This is unreasonable not transparent behaviour by @BT_uk @WeAreOpenreach and @Plusnet lesving the customer unprotected from abusive charges by big companies

  • BurkinshawAnna Anna Burkinshaw (@BurkinshawAnna) reported

    @bt_uk Nope. I waited over 2 hours then called up myself. It’s not good enough. None of my callbacks have been delivered as promised. And my issue is still unresolved. I can’t book an engineer appt because my account is an “exception” on the system and no one can clear it. Ludicrous.

  • missbear1973 Claire Mcqueen (@missbear1973) reported

    @btbusinesscare That’s nice - guess what?????? Another week gone, no further forward with **** net and no phone call from BT!

  • kategatacre kate gatacre (@kategatacre) reported

    No phone or broadband for 11 days after lightning strike in an area with little/no mobile signal. Apparently it’ll be five more days, but every time I call I get a different story, or @bt_uk tries to use my situation to force me sign a new contract. I call that extortion.
