    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

  • 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

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @bt_uk hello, I've had an ongoing broadband instability issue for around 6 months - frequently when I'm using IP voice applications the service is disrupted - I've tried to raise a fault on this a number of times - help!!

  • d4rryl23 Darryl Arnett (@d4rryl23) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk ...... Your wifi is shit

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • timtamw88 Tamara Watts (@timtamw88) reported from Blyth, England

    @bt_uk are the most incompetent company. I’m only a month into my contract and I want to cancel already. Terrible customer service, they just pass you to another dept and then your back to the start. I’ve never rang a company so much to get something sorted. #terrible

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @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.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk My broadband has been off for over a week now.. ive spoke to 4 advisor's and had 3 engineer's out. One of the engineer's lied and said i wasnt in when i spoke to him at the gate. Very poor service!!!!

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

  • 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.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris ⚽️ (@Andymorris74) reported from South Shields, England

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • foslar71 Peter Foster (@foslar71) reported from Consett, England

    Can someone from @btsport find that annoying kid in the @afcbournemouth stand and tell him to shit the f**k up.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • TVBCJonpaul Jonpaul Heron (@TVBCJonpaul) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

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

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • island_monty Island-Monty (@island_monty) reported

    @bt_uk @BritBox_UK BT shame on you. I may lose my new job due to multiple failures trying to get broadband installed. Several complaints open and you never return a call. Today you email me to say my engineer will arrive 24/12/2020 Every day 1.5 hours on phone queue and still not resolved.

  • kawsar_zaman Kawsar Zaman (@kawsar_zaman) reported

    @bt_uk surely there is also a role here for internet service providers such as BT (given national crisis) - reduced costs for fast / fibre broadband for those on the lowest incomes for a certain period at least...

  • chrispurcell777 Chris Purcell (@chrispurcell777) reported

    Thanks @BTGroup @bt_uk @MarcAllerafirst day of lockdown and another day of no broadband! Numerous ongoing account and service issues but no one is interested in assisting and resolving! Promise you the world in their ads and wash their hands with you when sign on the dotted line!

  • Timus_ Timus (@Timus_) reported

    @bt_uk Yeah plenty of times. Gets resolved and then the issue comes back.

  • gazfox66 Gaz Fox (@gazfox66) reported

    @BTCare Intermittent service for home broadband - very patchy signal am forced onto 4G now.

  • stulangridge Cycle Stu Langridge (@stulangridge) reported

    @bt_uk I can send screen shots of the speed checker I have used since the issue arose.

  • meggis18 james (@meggis18) reported

    @BTCare big shout out to the lady I spoke with today in 1 hour she sorted all my problems out after 2 weeks of speaking to about 20 different people promote her 🙌🙌

  • chrispurcell777 Chris Purcell (@chrispurcell777) reported

    @bt_uk Standard unhelpful fobbed off reply. How many times do I have to log a fault before someone realises it's another issue. Same thing every 4th Tuesday then miraculously solved the next day! @MarcAllera @BTGroup

  • LeBruce Ian LeBruce (@LeBruce) reported

    @bt_uk BT was one of the worst customer experiences that I’ve ever had. The money-back guarantee is a complete scam. Signal was beyond atrocious, the money-back only covers 2 months and they made me pay for the remaining year of the contract despite not being able to use it. AVOID.

  • TheOnLiberty Joe Jones (@TheOnLiberty) reported

    @bt_uk Straight to action when I Tweet! Ridiculous. I've been on the phone to you already - it's a charade. Don't try and save face now. Engineer was meant to be out today to fix it - checked for updates and it said the fix was yesterday. Phone line and WiFi still not working.
