  • 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!!!

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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 ?

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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.

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

    @bt_uk My phone network is EE

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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 🤬

  • 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????

  • 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?

  • thecheeseroom patricia michelson (@thecheeseroom) reported

    @btbusinesscare If only your team actually did something and replied to an Open Complaint No VP 7327470 - the worst customer care known to man.

  • Clarko2000 Paul Clarke (@Clarko2000) reported

    @Ofcom Thank you. Spoke to @bt_uk mobile and they gave me a full refund. To be fair they were excellent.I do think there should be some regulation stopping mobile users accidentally connecting to the MARITIME mobile network and their absolutely scandalous fees though.

  • Stella_M_V Stella Vass (@Stella_M_V) reported

    @bt_uk Dear Lesley, No-one was in touch with me today. That's the fourth time I've been promised a phone call that never came.

  • ButtonAndrea Andrea button (@ButtonAndrea) reported

    @bt_uk thanks to such bad service I feel like running away. Totally fed up.. Dont use BT they DONT care if you have a problem, even if they create it!

  • echobravo123 EM (@echobravo123) reported

    @bt_uk once again our phone line has issues, not working, can’t make or receive any calls, my elderly mother can’t even call family or 999 in an emergency, this happens far too often! I want to make an official complaint, this level of service is not good enough!

  • Darren_Dawson Darren Dawson (@Darren_Dawson) reported

    @bt_uk why is @TalkTalk offering superfast fibre broadband to homer when your own support closed our ticket without actaully providing any answers on fibre rollout? Is denial a new sales tactic?

  • sebgarner Sebastian Garner (@sebgarner) reported

    @bt_uk Yes for this coming Thursday but it’s another day that we have to wait in for engineer of which there is guarantee he or she will turn up and our broadband not working bearing in mind we reported the fault over 7 days ago

  • aidankinnell Aidan Kinnell (@aidankinnell) reported

    @bt_uk your online team are telling me that my new broadband service that is £6 a month more expensive is costing me £10 for the 9 days that I paid on my old service. Go figure that maths! Currently online with oldest person in BT billing (their words)

  • Woodylegion Robin Wood (@Woodylegion) reported

    @EE @BTCare I’ve been charged for bt big screen sport still don’t appear to have access when trying to login saying i still need to upgrade can you help?
