  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @bt_uk I will never use bt again.. i have just recieved a email saying 40% of the faults happen in the home and i will be charged £85 call out if this is the case.

  • 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

  • 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 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.

  • 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 👍

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

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

  • 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 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.

  • 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

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

    @bt_uk As ive said i will never have anything to do with bt again

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @bt_uk My broadband has been off for over a week now.. ive spoke to 4 advisor's and had 3 engineer's out. One of the engineer's lied and said i wasnt in when i spoke to him at the gate. Very poor service!!!!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!!

  • 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

  • mattallen76 Matthew Allen (@mattallen76) reported

    @bt_uk @bt_uk 5 days ago you promised me that someone would call regarding, what is now, nearly 6 weeks without internet access. Nobody’s been in touch. Absolutely abysmal service. You obviously don’t care, so it’s now time to cancel the order and give my business to someone else

  • SUKHTHIND Sukh Thind (@SUKHTHIND) reported

    @bt_uk I have been testing to contact customer services thru above link, but keep getting response to say no operatives are available due to limited number of people.

  • auld_jethart Callant (@auld_jethart) reported

    @bt_uk can you confirm that you won’t be providing fibre in Edinburgh & that we’ll have to leave BT & join Vodafone to get this service?

  • Deborah75358336 Deborah Clarke (@Deborah75358336) reported

    @bt_uk how do I check on any local outages, we have had nothing but problems with our sky internet for which you provide the fibre line for it. I must say that it is a complete pile of utter c%&p. I have been in contact with sky who have escalated it to yourselves once again

  • greg9rovers Greg Wallace (@greg9rovers) reported

    @bt_uk I can't believe how bad your service is. Why am I paying for 200mbps bur only getting 17mbps? Nobody will answer the chat and your phone line says thanks for calling before hanging up! This is shocking. #ComplaintIncoming

  • greg9rovers Greg Wallace (@greg9rovers) reported

    @bt_uk It's now got worse. Eventually got through to chat online. Told I need an engineer visit, but won't come on a Saturday. I have no holidays left to take for B.T. Then my wi-fi goes off again during chat. This is horrendous service. Paying for a substandard service.

  • lottyburns Lotty Earns (@lottyburns) reported

    @bt_uk Is there no-one in customer services who can help me out right now?

  • sdb1979 Steve (@sdb1979) reported

    @bt_uk Hi rang them and they were going to call back. Which the guy did, unfortunately I had to run to the vet with the dog (literally 5mins before he rang back). Will he try again this evening? He said he was in till 7pm. Feel bad for what I'm sure he thinks is me wasting his time 😞

  • JadieSpillett Jadie ❥ (@JadieSpillett) reported

    @bt_uk Done that, didn’t help. Still no Wi-fi

  • chris_greany Chris Greany 🕳🕳 (@chris_greany) reported

    Cold C "Hi this is @bt_uk loyalty, just checking all things are ok & your service is right ?"..."well no, Ive complained a number of times about not being able to call abroad and it still isn't fixed"...."err, we don't deal with that".. "what do you want then ?"...call hangs up..
