    @MSANNCOOPER @jojojoheeley @bt_uk Ring #BBCFakeNews. Im sure they'll be able to help you out. Don't waste your time ringing. Don't pay the bill if you don't owe it. Let them take you to Court: they'll lose.

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

  • 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.

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @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

  • 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 ?

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

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

    @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 🤔

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • 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!!!

  • irishlad42 David O Flynn (@irishlad42) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Please Please Please do not upgrade to @btsport on Virgin Media Ireland as you will lose @SkySports. Seriously never heard the likes of it before. You have been warned people

  • JimsJams James Coleman (@JimsJams) reported

    No internet all weekend because @bt_uk didn't send out the hardware in time. First time choosing BT and it's a pretty terrible first impression. Currently paying for a service I can't use. A child without internet. Making arrangements because the wife can't work from home Monday

  • daisydoll1972 andrea (@daisydoll1972) reported

    @bt_uk Internet has been down most of the day. Earlier the website said estimated fix time 9.07pm. Now it’s saying a fix date can’t be provided. Has been happening a lot recently. At nearly £80 a month it’s not really good enough.

  • mildlyqueertbh Ian MacKaye's little red hat (@mildlyqueertbh) reported

    @bt_uk internet has been down in Falmouth since 1PM. What's the story here?

  • Basesketch Kirk (@Basesketch) reported

    @VancityReynolds @Vanarama @btsport As long as it's shared amongst the rest of the league I don't see a problem

  • jade49799 xJadeKatx (@jade49799) reported

    @bt_uk fix your wifi, its been down for 4 hours with no fix, its saying the fix was 1am but now its saying nothing. Its getting ridiculous now, its 2022, we shouldn't be having issues that take this long!

  • revstjames JSJ (@revstjames) reported

    @OpenreachHelp Sadly, no reference. @bt_uk are unwilling to raise an Openreach complaint to Openreach.

  • prosser_1984 Mike Prosser (@prosser_1984) reported

    @bt_uk I will still need help. Vodafone said I'd need to speak to BT to get it sorted. Eventually I got through to someone in BT today to be told that Vodafone must request/order the number to be transferred. Get back to Vodafone to be told that my old number is unavailable to migrate

  • Jobay1Kanobe Jobay (@Jobay1Kanobe) reported

    @bt_uk hello, can I have some help please?

  • aimeejayneyoung Aimee Young (@aimeejayneyoung) reported

    We’ve escalated an official complaint because @bt_uk tell us one thing and @OpenreachHelp say something completely different! We had a date of today, then 22 sep, now 30th! I just don’t understand your operating model honestly
