  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • shahanchowdhury Shahan Chowdhury™ © (@shahanchowdhury) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk My phone network is EE

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

    @bt_uk The Internet connection on your mobile network here in Stanley, Co. Durham is abysmal.

  • 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.

  • 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????

  • heatherpott heather potts (@heatherpott) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk please can you respond to my complaint ASAP #poorcustomerservice

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

    @bt_uk And I NEVER get 4g. Lucky to get 3g!

  • 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

  • gman_hughes 🐢gman scouser Hughes 😬☠️ (@gman_hughes) reported from Ryton, England

    @bt_uk @CattleprodSub @Se2n22 We got BT and ours seem to be slow , is this BT saying we need to up grade to faster internet, hmmm 🤔

  • 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!

  • DanielJenks89 Daniel Jenks (@DanielJenks89) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk I have had issues with my broadband dropping in and out of my devices since that major outage happened on Thursday. I don’t know if anyone else has had those continuous problems during that time?

  • gerrinnesmac Gerry1nnes (@gerrinnesmac) reported from Peterlee, England

    @bt_uk Tweets are nice but I don't understand how you're in business! I've tried 7 times over three days to call you and you never ever pick up! Just a constant recycled message about being busy! If you can't handle busy you shouldn't be in business.

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • 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 ?

  • Geordie_Shaun shaun (@Geordie_Shaun) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Cazza7 @btsport That’s crap. 🤬

  • 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!!!

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

    @bt_uk Yes. The coverage here in Stanley is shocking. Time after time I have to connect to home or McDonald's or O2 hot spot to get Internet when out in Town. Even occasionally got no signal at all.

  • RogeeDave2 Dave Rogerson (@RogeeDave2) reported

    @TerryWhenman @bt_uk I have exactly the same issue. Same channels missing so I am missing the Tennis 😞

  • greg9rovers Greg Wallace (@greg9rovers) reported

    @bt_uk No faults listed. No internet connection. Every colour under the rainbow, both still and flashing. The only colour missing is a blue solid one. (Mainly flashing purple and then orange). Prices went up, service went down. Zero surprises there.

  • DaveClarksonAUS David Clarkson (@DaveClarksonAUS) reported

    @andysc @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp My wife was so frustrated with an ongoing call centre/engineer disconnect, she ran into the road and flagged down a Virgin van that happened to be passing and arranged to switch. True story!

  • andysc Andy Stanford-Clark (@andysc) reported

    @PeteLomasPi @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp well, they did actually come and fix the severed fibre yesterday… but my CPE/OTU/fibre modem thingy still isn’t connecting.

  • tacootje Taco de Vries (@tacootje) reported

    @andysc @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp I remember my own horror when my fiber to the home in Kingston Upon Thames with Virgin stopped working and i called them and they told me to expect someone in 6 weeks. When I lived in NYC, similar problem addressed same day! Whazzup UK?

  • AAndyhiggie60 andyhiggiejft96 (@AAndyhiggie60) reported

  • jocarter28 Jo Carter (@jocarter28) reported

    @bt_uk How do i make a complaint about an engineer who claims to have visited and never did.

  • RooPritchard Ruairidh (@RooPritchard) reported

    Hate to moan about companies on here, but after five engineer visits over the past 10 months, I am still having an absolute nightmare with my @bt_uk broadband. 50 drops in services in May. Still no solution. Sixth engineer visit booked for Monday, and my patience is all but lost

  • DaveClarksonAUS David Clarkson (@DaveClarksonAUS) reported

    @andysc @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp Yes it was an OR problem- we switched TO Virgin (cable)
