  • andrew_kemp
    Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @MakeDigitalWork @virginmedia I feel your pain! They provide such a poor service, with poor equipment and poor support. Holding them in breach of contract now as they are not providing what I am paying them for, cancelling and getting fttp with @bt_uk installed in 2 weeks

  • Andymitch79
    Andy Mitchelmore (@Andymitch79) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk That is the problem! Where do I find my landline number?

  • baldy100
    Gregg Aston (@baldy100) reported from Gorebridge, Scotland

    @bt_uk Disappointing service again from BT. Nothing but hassle from the start and terrible coverage from router. 21 days since complaint email has been sent which has gone unanswered. Called today and found very unhelpful and only interested in selling further products. Avoid.

    Colin Norman Wright (@TheCocoAnarchy) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Hey folks. Just to let you know that the following number, 02039665726 is poising as BT (@bt_uk) but it is a cold call scam. Hang up, block & report.

  • MikeyInglis
    Mikey Inglis (@MikeyInglis) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport why do you cut out all promotion content, even for @WWENetwork, with your annoying logo and music. No need for it and disturbs the flow of the programme.

  • shwadywaddyday
    Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk So thanks to @bt_uk I owe £ 159.00 to @SSE for the cancelation of my contract. Then will leave me with no service whatsoever. It was bt that emailed me back in December to anounce I could now get fiber. I hope who ever calls tommoro is fully autherized to financially fix this.

  • janey656
    Janey (@janey656) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk why aren’t you letting customers pause BT sports like sky have. I was told I could cancel but would have to pay out the contract. Your not providing the service we signed up for so why are you still taking our money. Come on BT do the right thing! And answer our question!

  • RTPeat
    Richard Peat  (@RTPeat) reported from Kinghorn, Scotland

    @bt_uk I don’t want the equipment removed, I want your customers service removed from it so I can have my service installed rather than having to have hardware pointlessly replaced. Your customer has emigrated, the service is no longer used.

  • brian6211
    Brian Thomas (@brian6211) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThomasDuecke just thought you should know that I’m experiencing appalling customer service from @bt_uk and despite almost 10 hours complaining, am still no further forward. Can you please help as I’m at my wits end?

  • taylor354
    Graeme Taylor (@taylor354) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk @benmols @bt_uk FTTP services down for me in the EH4 area of edinburgh. Can you confirm if this is expected. Old broadband over copper is still working via the DEAN exchange.

  • FrancesSincla12
    Frances Sinclair (@FrancesSincla12) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Our BT Broadband went down on Wednesday morning after the storm. Told no engineer to fix until 1st September! BT that’s appalling. After decades with BT we will be changing supplier!

  • Gillian1971
    Gillian Macrosson (@Gillian1971) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Cold calling me at 7.50am on Saturday and 7.40am today to sell me stuff will ensure that I never sign up for your products ever again

  • gavsuave
    Gabhainn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@gavsuave) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    How can teams with no money coming in from gate receipts afford to pay £80 million for a player. Far too much money coming in from @SkySports and @btsport and of course state broadcaster @BBCSport Cancel subscription to all.

  • gongthegoalie
    Colin Lundie (@gongthegoalie) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport it’s actually btsport 1 that I have the problem on.

  • karenagalloway
    Karen A Galloway (@karenagalloway) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk storm outage here in eh10. Any estimate as to when we might get back online ?

  • Stegadoris
    Steven Grant (@Stegadoris) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk No, I haven't. Can you provide their details? There isn't an issue with the phone lines but the recent wind up here in Edinburgh has the branches bashing of the lines, so it's only a matter of time before the branches snap the wires, hence I'm trying to take preventive measures.

    Is there a @bt_uk problem in Peterhead currently. Asking for mother-in-law who has no dial tone. AB42 1GE

    Edinburgh calling! Is @bt_uk Internet down?

  • chrishighcock

    @bt_uk did the storm last night take down #broadband in #Edinburgh If so when will it be back?

  • shwadywaddyday
    Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk I would if BT could do the job claimed. My fibre should have been active on the 9th Jan. I was told some BS about the routing route of the cables not as expected. Yet I know the fibre line is all set up and connected to the exchange now. . I've waited 7+ years Di I need to cancel

    @EE having a nightmare with your broadband again! You have been nothing but failed promises! I was moved over from @bt_uk I had no issues with them. How can I find out when my contact is up? Thanks

  • DomusCaligari
    DomJo (@DomusCaligari) reported

    @RichardLatto @bt_uk Ah, I'm glad it's not just me, here's hoping for a fix soon.

  • sharpy741
    @sharpy74 (@sharpy741) reported

    @martinintune @bt_uk Do you have any local alternative? I’m baffled why people pay BT for poor service at inflated prices. There are so many new Fibre providers now offering a better service at much lower prices. The days of BT’s monopoly and ridiculous Line Rental charges are thankfully, over.

  • johnconner05
    john conner (@johnconner05) reported

    @bt_uk I do call - every Monday, get told order failed they will re-issue told to wait 3-5 days . I then call on the Monday saying it didn't happen to be told the order failed . Etc etc . It's now June . Someone in Tech even suggested cancel account then re open after a week LOL

  • me_not_animal
    🐧 Me Might be Animal! 🐧 (@me_not_animal) reported

    Well the @bt_uk saga continues! Emailed the ELC team on Friday about the issues, someone called first thing this morning and had escalated things with @WeAreOpenreach to have an engineer out this afternoon…. And surprise surprise, OpenReach failed to turn up again (3rd failure)

  • KevinF1311
    Kevin Fowler (@KevinF1311) reported

    So I’ve had a BT landline since 1986 and broadband since 2002, but my renewal cost for broadband 900 Mb was £78.99 but after conversation £60.99, although a new customer can get it for £38.99. Ever felt like you are being ripped off.Awful customer service @bt_uk

  • JumaMhlanga
    tha Movement Noize Production (@JumaMhlanga) reported

    28+ days waiting for broadband from BT. Broken promises, poor communication, and still no connection. Completely unacceptable. @BT_UK #BroadbandFail #CustomerService

  • bigdaddymills1

    Having an absolute nightmare with @btbusinesscare Had problems since yesterday none of them been without Sevices for 36 hours and been told I’ve just got to wait #dm

  • dochill82
    Chris Hill (@dochill82) reported

    So tell me @bt_uk: 1. Is this the excellent customer service you talk about being committed to? 2. Why was my account cancelled when you knew it didn’t come from me? 3. Why aren’t your customer service team bending over backwards to get me online again today?

  • lnmackenzie1
    Lisa Mackenzie (@lnmackenzie1) reported

    @bt_uk Utterly shambolic customer service at your hands. Trying to help a very elderly medically vulnerable customer whose land line and broadband have been cancelled. Hours and hours spent on the phone to no avail. Next stop complaint to the regulator and seeking media coverage.
