    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

    @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

    @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.

  • 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!

  • John_P_Turner
    John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

    Dunno what hurt’s more my eyes watching that awful Spurs performance or my ears from that awful commentary from Martin Keown #ARSTOT #Spurs #BTSport

    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.

  • 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?

  • 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 😥😥

    Dave Tyrrell (@Dajamaky) reported

    @bt_uk are absolute *****. After 10 yrs of patchy WiFi we’ve made the move to another provider. 1 week before switch off they have turned off our WiFi . Thanks for nothing, mediocre pricks. I won’t hold my breath for a refund as I have long experience of your “customer service”

  • hongkongfu3y
    fuey (@hongkongfu3y) reported

    @bt_uk hello BT. I was a BT customer for years but was shifted onto EE. I have a broadband package with them and 2 sim only deals (originated as BT sims) If I change back to BT would I still get the mobile discount with EE being the same as BT or would that change??

  • OwenJBlanche

    Alexandra O'Byrne (@AlexaOByrne) reported

    @bt_uk @stokeygurl I’ve not been able to get into my online account for weeks due to a fault caused when BT upgraded their system a few weeks ago. No account access for weeks, BT cannot help and hence I’m now taking my landline, broadband and mobile contracts elsewhere! Loyal customer since 1993!

  • hongkongfu3y
    fuey (@hongkongfu3y) reported

    @bt_uk Ah ok thanks. I did try that and got pushed to an online help which wasn’t appropriate for my query. Will try again

  • AliIndge
    Alison indge (@AliIndge) reported

    Give @bt_uk a slow hand clap for messing up my email password - I made a BT ID which then said incorrect pw on my BT email account so I changed it - then tried to log in to the new BT ID account and it’s saying wrong pw too - give me strength 🤬

  • GFX2001
    Ian Robson (@GFX2001) reported

    The BT 2 factor Authentication Login is rubbish!! Each Time you receive the Passcode Via Email it fails to login. It only works if you get it sent to your phone!! Asked for Help from Support but they only say Download the BT App, which is unusable and provides zero help @bt_uk

  • DerekDonkey1977
    Steph Murray (@DerekDonkey1977) reported

    @bt_uk Referring someone to Ofcom when you won’t fix your own issues is not a solution

  • NikkiOsbor4715
    Nikki Anderson (@NikkiOsbor4715) reported
