  • 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 🤬

  • 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 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!

  • unclenobheadCB Philip Robinson (@unclenobheadCB) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Fully subscribed to @btsport for several years now but I refuse to watch another @NUFC **** show! #bruceout #EVENEW

  • glne12 gary littlemore (@glne12) reported from Longbenton, England

    Terrible @btsport sort it out

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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 ?

  • 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????

  • 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.

  • 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

  • WASNAPPER Martin (@WASNAPPER) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    2 days on & off now sitting listening to crap music. Not by choice but trying to report another fault to @plusnethelp service used to be good but garbage since @bt_uk got involved

  • 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? 🤔)

  • 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!!!

  • 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 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 👏

  • 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!

  • PHoare1963 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? 🤔).

  • PHoare1963 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?

  • 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?

  • natasha_b14 natasha (@natasha_b14) reported

    So was assured yesterday I would have service @btbusinesscare we’ve opened this morning and no connections. I’m fed up! Why?!?

  • MrBlanding ((( Andrew Sharp))) #RejoinEU* (@MrBlanding) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Lisa my apologies it was the truly awful @VodafoneUK -telecoms fatigue setting in as everyone is permanently experiencing “heavy call volumes “ whatever time or day you call -though your webpage won’t let you manage all services in one go mobile/broadband/phone -sorry again

  • CaseyCo13527451 Casey Cooper (@CaseyCo13527451) reported

    If you haven't received your @bt_uk PS5 access code by now you won't be getting it for this batch. I'm a BT customer and have registered interest and NOTHING! Cheers BT! #ps5uk #ps5ukstock #ps5bt

  • jinkyjoiner Martin Bell (@jinkyjoiner) reported

    @bt_uk I have zero faith.. if you look at my account, the amount of times we’ve had to call. It’s shocking and still no fix in place

  • Nate_Kitsune NatePhoenix (@Nate_Kitsune) reported

    @CaseyCo13527451 @FriedG0at @bt_uk Exactly! Total lack of clarity, sudden opening of orders, and codes going to non-customers. It isn't stingy at all to expect to get a code if you're a customer before a non-customer... :/

  • samgittings1998 Sam (@samgittings1998) reported

    @bt_uk BT is awful- house phone rings, internet drops completely! The internet is dead slow!! When I ring them they say IVE got to pay for replacement parts

  • ThomasPenny16 Thomas Penny (@ThomasPenny16) reported

    @AndrewO47652667 @bt_uk Yeah thats what I am asking mate, did they email you code? A lot of people never got one.

  • sammowatyahooc1 Sam Mowat (@sammowatyahooc1) reported

    @bt_uk New customer age 93 & 90, still dead phone. Number released from Talk Talk, No broadband either. What is happening?

  • CaseyCo13527451 Casey Cooper (@CaseyCo13527451) reported

    I am a @bt_uk customer AND have registered interest for the PS5 yet have received no email/code and this queue for a PS5 batch has been paused ever since I logged on? Has anyone actually secured one with them yet? #ps5stockuk #PS5
