  • 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.

  • JulieGal1234 Julie Gallagher (@JulieGal1234) reported from Longbenton, England

    @bt_uk internet has been on and off all day. You say nothing wrong with the line but a quick search says loads of people having problems with their internet.

  • shahanchowdhury Shahan Chowdhury™ © (@shahanchowdhury) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bt_uk My phone network is EE

  • 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

  • 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 🤬

  • 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!!!

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

    Terrible @btsport sort it out

  • 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 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!

  • 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.

  • 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 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!

  • 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.

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk Do you think you could address the problem of your BTtv EPG in relation to entries by @DiscoveryUK. Entries misleading in time, length of prog, capital letters, no synopsis and unable to "record the series". Do you care?

  • 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 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?

  • 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????

  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk And I NEVER get 4g. Lucky to get 3g!

  • 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

  • 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 ?

  • crumblex Crumble 🏃‍♂️🚴 (@crumblex) reported

    @bt_uk Let down by Bt again they told me the specialist team would phone me this afternoon. Any idea what’s going on

  • jimbob4224 Jamie Wilson (@jimbob4224) reported

    @TheRunningManZ @bt_uk @skytv are exactly the same, my 90 year old grandad was paying over £100 for sky TV and a bunch of channels he never watched until I found out and sorted it, they care only about profits and not people.

  • Julford57 Julian Ford (@Julford57) reported

    @PhilipRadbourne @paullewismoney @bt_uk Customer service standards can vary a lot. I must admit I do have some sympathy with the customer services staff over this as their hands are tied and they cannot offer what the customer wants.

  • randrewbuchan Andy (@randrewbuchan) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk You have no choice, they’ve done it to me. The broadband phone line is very poor quality and I wish I could have prevented them from doing this.

  • grannyash510 Sarah Mac (@grannyash510) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk That's a disaster. As a former primary school admin, we had to call parents often during power cuts. Latterly by plugging in an old phone. How do kids get sent home now when there's no heating or food ? No power, no communications, no emergency help. Won't just be schools either.

  • Dmartinog88 Dmartino88 (@Dmartinog88) reported

    @bt_uk @Darrensailes I was not advised of this and I'm a new customer, 10% is a utterly disgrace

  • gwibble_ Jack Intrawong-Potts (@gwibble_) reported

    @bt_uk It is Absolutely shameful that yesterday I spoke to the retention team and was offered Full Fibre 100 at £34.99 a month with no flex on the price at all. I contact BT pretending to be a new customer and I am offered the same Full Fibre 100 Package at £29.99 and £300 Credit

  • LeckyRichard Richard Lecky-Thompson (@LeckyRichard) reported

    @paullewismoney @bt_uk BT are planning to beach the OFCOM guidelines that they signed up to by not providing adequate backup in case of power cuts. 1 hour backup is not enough of you don't have mobile signal in your house. It is unclear if elderly alarm systems will work.

  • stevenichols Steve Nichols (@stevenichols) reported

    @bt_uk How can I progress my faulty broadband? Not had an internet connection now for two weeks. My fault/complaint is going nowhere.

  • BowlesAnd George and Karen Bowles (@BowlesAnd) reported

    @bt_uk just want to watch some Netflix after struggling with paperwork, due to incredibly poor signal from our substandard, ‘TEMPORARY’ (4months), BT mini-hub, guess what!? Netflix won’t work either! BT, when will you connect us? Terrible, terrible company.
