  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk And people on Twitter may be looking for a new broadband connection and should be aware of the level of service from BT

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

  • d4rryl23 Darryl Arnett (@d4rryl23) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

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

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

  • HarrymBarham Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris ⚽️ (@Andymorris74) reported from South Shields, England

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from South Hetton, England

    @bt_uk Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree Please fix my broadband just for me I've waited now for many days (17 and counting) Many promises fade in the haze Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree Please make my broadband work for me

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk ...... Your wifi is shit

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Crook, England

    @bt_uk False alarm, it was a nice neighbour dropping off a Christmas card - I saw an Openreach van down the road and assumed that you had actually done something!!

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • John_P_Turner John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    A new development on the BT issue. Had a call following my Tweet from a person @bt_uk apologising for yesterday. Early termination fee waived, apology accepted and relationship restored. Both agreed that this wasn’t the way it should happen but impressed with the resolution.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KDB_UK KDB (@KDB_UK) reported

    @bt_uk You installed my service last week, but I'm yet to receive anything close to even my minimum guaranteed speeds. I've had an engineer attempt to fix it, but only make it worse. Now to top it off, one of your staff has failed to book an engineer that was due to day. Help.

  • Rayhdgson107mc Raymond Hodgson (@Rayhdgson107mc) reported

    @bt_uk Yes please i have to switch wifi off in town and than i can use 4G otherwise signal is blocked and the same when i am back home 4G stops and i need to go back on wifi

  • JonJunior_ Jon Junior (@JonJunior_) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, I received a dispatch notification along with a tracking number, however the tracking with parcel farce still says there is no tracking available… oddly enough you took the money out of my account promptly without a problem

  • Sall_Baker Sall Baker (@Sall_Baker) reported

    @bt_uk I'm looking for some help, is there a reason my internet keeps disconnecting?

  • TheQuietLAD Luke D (@TheQuietLAD) reported

    Still no Internet from @bt_uk. So they've sent me a 4G mini hub in the meantime to allow some connection. Guess what, it doesn't work. Apparently there's no signal. Even though there is on my phone. 🤬🤬🤬

  • NickMackieBook Nick Mackie ✏️ (@NickMackieBook) reported

    OK @bt_uk my unwell 84 year old neighbour is a telephone customer of yours. He has no working phone line. Thought we had sorted out engineer who didnt appear today. What do you suggest?

  • G4PY Gary Foster (@G4PY) reported

    @bt_uk You have the most shocking customer service I have ever experienced. I have dealt with three different people, none of them have returned calls when they specifically stated they would, and neither of them reply to their emails. Good bye BT, you have lost my custom!!

  • patricegreyslo1 patrice.grey.sloan (@patricegreyslo1) reported

    What is worst the dealing with @bt_uk customer service??? …… nothing!

  • juliedavies96 jOu|e§ (@juliedavies96) reported

    @bt_uk I thought I’d cancelled my TV package but just been charged it on my latest bill can you help?

  • hairy46chad Nick Bland (@hairy46chad) reported

    @bt_uk if I cancel, would it be possible to pay the termination fee on a card?
