    @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.

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

  • 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.

    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!!!

    @BaseballBrit @btsport @MLB @Twitter To be fair @btsport are better than most other channels - usually two games a night on their ESPN channel. Too many Yankees and Red Sox games though and not enough @Rockies! @MLBTV just as bad - not equal coverage of all teams....🤔

    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?

    @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!

  • ChaneyMichael
    Michael Chaney (@ChaneyMichael) reported from Dunston, England

    @gateshead who do you report vandalism of a phone box to, is it council or @bt_uk can you help? As it is a BT phone box.

    @BTCare @bt_uk hello, hope you can help please? After a 95 minute phone call on Saturday your advisor assured me my problems would be solved by an engineer tomorrow. I’ve had no email or text to confirm this. Please advise.

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

  • davidmellstrom
    David Mellstrom (@davidmellstrom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @btsport @btsportrugby @bt_uk trying to watch Newcastle Falcons v Bristol tonight on BT1, BT1HD and BTUltimate and all BT channels are jumping and stuttering. Is it just me, or is everyone having this problem. It's usually fine. Every other channel is unaffected.

    BT with the worst broadcast from presenters, commentators and broadcast itself (sound and video) woeful! #BTSport #MCINEW

    Choppaloppadingdong (@ScottWi28968286) reported

    @bt_uk want to remove landline from package, told on BT chat Ok but I have to pay £9.99 for a “Hybrid Connect” device which I don’t want or need, as a new broadband package has to be created and they must send this thing out?! I only want to cancel landline!! Anyone else had this

  • phillyonskem
    The Real Philip Lyon (@phillyonskem) reported

    Every time I have to contact @bt_uk about our business phones, it says webchat is the best option. And every time, without fail, after a least a half hour webchat they tell me I'll need to ring such and such a number. Absolute joke of a company to deal with.

  • ThomsonEdwint
    Ed Thomson (@ThomsonEdwint) reported

    @JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk It’s Circet that seems to be doing installations and doing a good enough job on the track but won’t repair damage done by mini digger to the road when finished. 🫣

  • Superfx101
    Steve 💙💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Superfx101) reported

    @bt_uk Hi, thanks for the quick reply. That's what I did but they were significantly higher than what a new customer is offered. Is my only option to get the best deal is to switch provider? If so, then unfortunately I will have to do that.

  • andy_carson101
    andy carson (@andy_carson101) reported

    @bt_uk @EE 1 month into a new internet deal and now the 3rd time I have been disconnected due to your poor admin. Been messed around numerous times. 2 engineer visits (5m each), 2 routers , 2 contracts , no email comms ...internet down today due to contract swap over , no comms .

    @bt_uk @Boston_Rabbit What a way to treat a 92yr old @bt_uk you should be ashamed

  • _mowgli73
    patrick mcgill (@_mowgli73) reported

    @bt_uk wifi is dropping to ridiculously slow levels ( 2.4mbps). Contract has just run out....coincidence? Tried to do an online check and your online service is down. Shocking

  • Jamieonthisday
    Jamie (@Jamieonthisday) reported

    @bt_uk signed up with you because of dreadful comms from HyperOptic yet 20 mins and counting on hold with you. Just as bad.

  • mizmuggle
    Large Vodka (@mizmuggle) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve already done this. It’s says network fault and the date for resolution keeps getting pushed back. It’s not acceptable and can’t get through to an actual person on the phone.
