    @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.

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Not only is the @bt_uk wifi poor on my smart hub 2 but the lack of channels available is terrible. BT need to sort this out and expand the available WiFi channel choice to prevent neighbours clashing

  • dellynel niall (@dellynel) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @bt_uk we just tried to cancel @bt tv and internet today as the prices have been put up only to be told we are tied in until the New Year or it will cost us £600 Yearly fixed term contract can't cancel complete and utter con

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk No. As I've proved all I needed was a new hub. After being a BT customer for 20+ years. I'm looking forward October when my contract finishes. You have a good day.

  • SmarProcurement David Hall (@SmarProcurement) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    For me @btsport have taken the mantle from @talkSPORT for the worst cricket coverage. Matt Smith is a good football presenter but is clearly not a cricket follower and the commentary they are using from Fox is terrible. If @bbctms can send their to team to Australia why not BT?

  • nickcubs70 nick (@nickcubs70) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    ******* hell @btsport you’ve been absolutely dreadful. The worst thing about tonight for sure.

  • SoSureSewell sewellpaul@lfc (@SoSureSewell) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Shocking service from @bt_uk. No compassion at all from you as a company. Lost my job & my home and now you want to destroy my credit scores. Nearly £500 charges for leaving early. 8 months in to a 24 month contact does not seem fair to me 😥😥

  • jasonhebron Jase ⚫️⚪️ ♿️ (@jasonhebron) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

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

    @btbusinesscare I moved house in December, you failed to move my Internet so spectacularly that mid January I cancelled the non existing internet. I’ve been sent bills in February & March that I’ve had to phone about. Im just trying to warn other people how bad your service is.

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.

  • 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.

  • Sandanista Bob P @BobPitman@toot.community (@Sandanista) reported

    @bt_uk Home hub has been dropping random devices over last 4 or 5 wks but never just acting like firewall blocking just some random websites! We've had to restart it several times recently as loses connections to net or devices... just not this odd some websites not others thing! 2/2

  • Sandanista Bob P @BobPitman@toot.community (@Sandanista) reported

    @bt_uk Sometimes it seems to sleep for 5 or 25 mins then comes back... other times all devices seem to react the same as if internet speed is being throttled and all devices (inc the internet tv get glitchy & pixilated/slow/sound & picture out of sync. 3/3

  • Sandanista Bob P @BobPitman@toot.community (@Sandanista) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks - I did. i checked firewalls, hosts file & other bits on my machine. restarted it- nothing, same issue. Ping worked but only some websites load others looked like no internet. Tried logging into homehub & it didnt load either!! Restart home hub worked. 1/2

  • VapesBlazin Blazin_Vapes75 (@VapesBlazin) reported

    @bt_uk Wow your live chat support staff are useless 👎

  • ClareMWilkins Clare Wilkins (@ClareMWilkins) reported

    In a competitive market @bt_uk good customer service is king. This is my sixth day without telephone or broadband. My third cancelled engineer appointment - 2 no shows 1 cancelled mid time slot. Disrupted service payment does not cover wasted annual leave and work lost for two

  • ClareMWilkins Clare Wilkins (@ClareMWilkins) reported

    @bt_uk The last we heard was they would now come tomorrow morning. Not sure if I believe them There is never a reason given for them not turning up which is just plain rude. I’m not sure if it is openreaches fault or BTs but the end result is the same
