  • PapaDodds Chris Dodds (@PapaDodds) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Can you not just get an English person to call me direct to fix this please? I’ve been passed about for 6-7 weeks now.

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @bt_uk I'm going to head round and help him.

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @bt_uk I'm tempted to challenge this. As a BT customer, pre fibre, all I ever heard was that the WiFi was "lagging again". I'm on 350mbps cable now but would love a reliable BT connection in the future

  • 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!!!

  • 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 👏

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

    @fozia4 @rkelwick @bt_uk Indeed. And when you complain you just get fobbed off? They need to change the law to require a business to honour any service or produce they supply. Especially builders and tradesmen? Seems to be impossible to get them to put right errors they have made?

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • 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 🤬

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • PapaDodds Chris Dodds (@PapaDodds) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. Week 7, still no line working, 4 engineers, 3 credit checks and 30 false promises to get back in touch. But hey, your still charging me for this.

  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported from Witton-le-Wear, England

    @bt_uk We currently have @skytv but after a week of little to no signal, the sky engineers have confirmed it’s an issue with trees out issue of our garden so sky looks like a no go! We currently have sky q in three rooms, do bt allows three boxes in the same house??

  • Raring2goNewcas Raring2Go! Newcastle (@Raring2goNewcas) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @BTCare @bt_uk hello, hope you can help please? After a 95 minute phone call on Saturday your advisor assured me my problems would be solved by an engineer tomorrow. I’ve had no email or text to confirm this. Please advise.

  • 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.

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

    @rkelwick @fozia4 @bt_uk I’m waiting to receive my £100 as my BT Broadband regularly cuts me off Zoom calls and the picture quality from our BT TV is regularly terrible (but fine on the app on my iPad? 🤔)

  • charming_man_ Tory 1 (@charming_man_) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk can we have an update on the outage Middlesbrough TS5

  • 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!

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

    @bt_uk My @btsport picture quality often way worse than this - pixelated and unwatchable with broken up sound. When are you sending me my £100? (and more importantly providing me with a more reliable service? 🤔).

    @btbusinesscare Can you advise how I can report a fault when the app and online fault reporting is not working for me. Thanks.

  • BullatBrantham The Bull (@BullatBrantham) reported

    Absolutely shocking service from @bt_uk @BTBusiness @btbusinesscare over 30 minutes online as you can't talk to a person to discuss why they have taken £750 for no reason from our account 😡

  • jamesmorrowhes James-Morrow Entertainment Systems (@jamesmorrowhes) reported

    @btbusinesscare you have cancelled the internet service , despite communications last week to extend it. No one has called as promised to work through the situation. Awful service. Please help!

  • sfegan seamus fegan (@sfegan) reported

    @BTCare My telephone line is not working. Please check 02841773133. It is my mother's house who is 89 and she doesn't know how long it has been broken. Contact me at 07703496598 Seamus Fegan, son.

  • NitrogenService NitrogenServices (@NitrogenService) reported

    @btbusinesscare good morning, we’ve had no office telephone since Friday cannot receive or make calls, I cannot log it online as the message on the 0800 number suggests, can anyone help? Thanks

  • Jimbokav1971 Jim Kavanagh (@Jimbokav1971) reported

    @BenycfcMorrison @oafc24 @lukejcr Problem is NL don't do themselves any favours with this abomination of a DAZN debacle. Really good product promoted & presented well with TNT/BTSport & all that work undone chasing a few quid. Lots not to like about NL management.

  • Mrsbarrattsingh S B (@Mrsbarrattsingh) reported

    @btbusinesscare I am having the most awful experience, please can you help! Our internet hasn’t worked properly since August & now our landline won’t work either. I’ve been on call for over an hour and we’re still no further on!

  • TheOldHammer The Old Hammer (@TheOldHammer) reported

    @btbusinesscare I did... The worst customer service I have ever encountered and you just confirmed it Beth. Anyone with a business, AVOID these guys

  • ceejaygraham CeeJayGee Photo (@ceejaygraham) reported

    @bt_uk @BTCare there are serious circular links on the website. Trying to begin a "moving home" order+retain my BT acc but can't get passed repeatedly confirming my new address. The visual link process doesn't work. I'm waiting nearly 40min to speak to someone. @virginmedia

  • craigcampbell03 Craig Campbell (@craigcampbell03) reported
