Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Gateshead and nearby locations:

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • KRISKROS5 Kris Kross (@KRISKROS5) reported from Blyth, England

    BT commentator- “ you have to get it on target or you will not trouble the keeper or make him make a mistake” fantastic awareness.... #newcry #btsport #NUFC

  • 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? 🤔)

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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 🤬

  • 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.

  • 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????

  • 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!!!

  • PapaDodds Chris Dodds (@PapaDodds) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. Week 7, still no line working, 4 engineers, 3 credit checks and 30 false promises to get back in touch. But hey, your still charging me for this.

  • 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 👏

  • PapaDodds Chris Dodds (@PapaDodds) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Can you not just get an English person to call me direct to fix this please? I’ve been passed about for 6-7 weeks now.

  • 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!

  • 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? 🤔).

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

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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Tharindu__ Tharindu (@Tharindu__) reported

    @bt_uk Yes it’s reported already. Without BB we can’t work and children can’t join homeschooling online Teams sessions. What is the estimated resolution time? Do we get compensation not being able to work?

  • nickymaunder Nicky Maunder (@nickymaunder) reported

    @bt_uk Hi BT. Just had a call from “BY Openreach”. Apparently there’s a problem with our internet. We’re not with BT and when I asked if they thought BT was our provider they hung up. You might want to let ppl know there’s scam callers doing the rounds #scamcaller

  • DanTheMan_709 Dan Foster (@DanTheMan_709) reported

    @bt_uk is Mountsorrel experiencing issues? My internet is ludicrously slow this morning not happy...

  • gumplock gumplock (@gumplock) reported

    @dle54 @bt_uk Don't support any 'british institution' that charges you more for your patriotism.

  • timbhoy1 Mr Green (@timbhoy1) reported

    @bt_uk Rita are you pulling my leg here. Don’t you think with all the problems I’ve had with your broadband I would have gone through all the scenarios put to me. Your broadband is unreliable & doesn’t work for a family with Wi-fi required in every room. Unless you have cardboard walls.

  • shaunnaeast Shaunna East (@shaunnaeast) reported

    @trillb19 @bt_uk I know it’s openreach, but the engineer was confused why my appointment was cancelled, I’ve never known in my life, not one, not two but three appointments and the engineer being in my area who was unaware of why my appointment cancelled it makes no sense 😫

  • obsilverfox Ollie Brown (@obsilverfox) reported from Snaith, England

    @bt_uk It’s jumped back up to 35mbps which is fine. Unsure why it’s yoyo’ing though. We had issues last night too. Just came to a head whilst partner was attempting to teach a lesson on g meet.

  • MichaelaHapgood Michaela Hapgood (@MichaelaHapgood) reported

    @bt_uk Two phone calls and two engineers and we still have an unstable broadband connection! The hub is either disconnecting or it’s so slow you can’t do anything.

  • Darrenw3004 Darren Waring (@Darrenw3004) reported

    @bt_uk Hi switched over yesterday to Broadband & HD Voice but can’t receive incoming calls. Broadband stable & outgoing calls all ok. Can you help?

  • DrFernsby Agent Fernsby (@DrFernsby) reported

    @bt_uk Hello BT, I have recieved a call about offering deals about broadband. I am in interested in deals but more interested in better than service than any deals for now. I am currently in touch with Openreach trying agree on a installation.
