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

  • 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.

  • hazystew Sin-i-sister (@hazystew) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk is there any update on when Edinburgh will be back online? I can’t work so it’s an issue!

  • chrishighcock Chris Highcock (@chrishighcock) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

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

  • 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.

    @btbusinesscare Hi. Are you currently experiencing an outage in central Edinburgh? My Business Hub is stuck on orange, so no WiFi connection and VOIP business phone line 😕

  • craighk93 Craig (@craighk93) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk @AIridag with plusnet and I am the same, not working

  • britishbulldawg British Bulldawg (@britishbulldawg) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @btsport I get that when @CollegeGameDay brakes to show footage from the Masters it’s an issue because of rights but to just start the programme again after an hour is ridiculous. Doesn’t really justify the recent price rises 😤

  • K_J_Donnelly Kathryn Donnelly (@K_J_Donnelly) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Absolutely ridiculous @bt_uk that you expect customers to accept not having broadband for 8 days whilst @scotgov ask us to #WFH without any complaint. #EH4 #Stockbridge

  • DarkblueDad Keith Guthrie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺WearingAFaceCovering (@DarkblueDad) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @bt_uk Found out it was an issue with cordless phone not hanging up!

  • Neuraldance Neville Lawther (@Neuraldance) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Edinburgh broadband My internet is down in EH10.

  • 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!

  • LAYC2015 LAYC (@LAYC2015) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk please help small charity who has no telephone landline and don’t understand why there’s a fault? On hold to very expensive customer service line!

  • Ronan_Barton Ronan Barton (@Ronan_Barton) reported from Birmingham, England

    @bt_uk I am not sure if this is an automated response, but that has been fixed now it’s trying to get the order replaced that seems to be the problem. But seemed to be happy to flog another 24 month contract, than also some TV then also a SIM card…..

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

  • traceyk9 🐝tracey snelling 🐝 (@traceyk9) reported

    @bt_uk we have full fibre broadband and digital phone with you on Tuesday it went down.I reported it & was told as part of the stay connected guarantee a mini hub was being sent out & would be here Wednesday. It never arrived.We were without connection for nearly 24hrs

  • RobSpring01 RobRoy💙🥩 (@RobSpring01) reported

    @bt_uk Joe, I have recent experience (with Paddy) of you raising complaints via this platform and you investigating youselves does not work You obviously can not help as you make no attempt to do as I ask and keep coming back with the same response

  • PaulOxford19741 Paul@Oxford1974 (@PaulOxford19741) reported

    @bt_uk Nearly 24 hours have passed and my complaint has still not been reviewed (according to my complaint status) This is totally unacceptable and I'm not paying for less than my guaranteed broadband speed

  • RobSpring01 RobRoy💙🥩 (@RobSpring01) reported

    @bt_uk Shame no one wanted to tell me, the customer, what this secret issue was then the order might have still been going ahead
