    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? 🤔).

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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? 🤔)

  • chewytheleftie
    Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk the worst service in the UK. I’m still getting bills for a service I stopped in January. Absolutely shambolic. I stopped being a customer 3 months ago yet here I am on hold to BT. What a joke.

  • wilko1999
    Angela Wilkinson🍃💚🍃 (@wilko1999) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk It was not a missed appointment it was a total failure of communication. Someone could have contacted me so I could have stayed at work. Now I have an unreliable service over a Bank Holiday weekend and another planned appt for next Wednesday.

    @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??

    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 👏

  • 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.

  • timlibrarian
    Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk broadband outage in DH77DD affecting *both* BT and Sky customers. According to Sky (your website doesn’t acknowledge it) since 11:30 last night. What’s going on?

  • ChaneyMichael
    Michael Chaney (@ChaneyMichael) reported from Dunston, England

    @gateshead who do you report vandalism of a phone box to, is it council or @bt_uk can you help? As it is a BT phone box.

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

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

  • 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.

    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?

    @bt_uk Sorry if I wasn't clear. I meant work video conference calls. I'm having issues with my 12-month BT WiFi hotspot contract. Please help! 🙏

    @SkySportsNews Couldn't care less, think it's time to cancel my sky sports subscription and get @btsport

  • J_PaulDevine
    Paul Devine (@J_PaulDevine) reported

    today is a slow day 1hour 25minutes to download an image on @bt_uk which is only 20mb Ill understand 2GB or more. Ill get the usual BS they are giving me the speed, but why should I pay the same monthly fee for (dialup) broadband as someone who actually gets FAST broadband?

  • Sem43671856
    Sem (@Sem43671856) reported

    @bt_uk Poor service . It I’m had been a month since I am trying to get broadband installed , so far I have spent 10 hours waiting for your customer services, I have spoken to 6 different people, and wasted ti days waiting for an engineer to turn up.

  • djientan
    Jen Tan (@djientan) reported

    @btbusinesscare Oh but Christine, you see they can’t help me because the OTP won’t come through to the phone or email and it requires a *letter* to set up an admin to get it sent to a different number. Kafkaesque nightmare.

  • Tammah17
    Tammah (@Tammah17) reported

    @bt_uk I have someone assisting in the way that they can with checking my router again myself, but I have still not had the requested call back from a manager regarding my complaint. 15mins turned into 5 hours.

    @bt_uk help please. We are being told that the internet is down in the Bedford area and has been since earlier today. What is happening please as I have a business to run

  • yorks111
    Steve Marchant 🏏🎺 (@yorks111) reported

    @bt_uk engineer aparently cut the entryphone cable and used it for their system. Now I'm faced with a big bill to fix. Three calls to BT, thrice put on hold and each time after 25 minutes or so cut off

  • clarescastle
    Clarissa Reilly (@clarescastle) reported

    @bt_uk No, + the colleague with whom I am organising has gone home in despair. We'll try again tomorrow. It ought to be possible, without publicly shaming companies on here, for customers to get something which resembles service. Especially when trying to spend money with you!
