    @bt_uk You need to cut down on the adverts it’s ridiculous you should be ashamed charging for a channel of nothing but adverts 🤬🤬🤬

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

    @bt_uk No the issue wasn’t resolved. I answered the call within a few seconds but they hung up right away and made no attempt to call again. If you have an hour or so, read the notes. Utterly appalling. I am expecting 2 callbacks today but not holding my breath. @ThomasDuecke @Ofcom

  • 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?

    If anyone sent me an email between 5pm and midnight yesterday I didn't receive it. @bt_uk email was down for the 2nd time in a month, and all emails during this period were eaten by a @bt_uk and @YahooCare shaped black hole. #FedUpWithBTandYahoo #Unreliable

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

    @OpenreachHelp Hi Dan, there is no service in their new house as they’ve emigrated - the @bt_uk service is sitting unused. It seems absolutely ludicrous to replace the ONT with a 4 port for a property that only needs 1 FTTP service because of a BT admin issue!

  • 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.

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

    @GenuineNoob198 @mitchmi09009371 @bt_uk Do you know what a question mark is? It means I'm asking you a question not making a statement. FFS and you're calling me stupid??

    @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!

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

    @bt_uk In which case I need to report our broadband is down.

  • paulgreig6
    Paul Greig (@paulgreig6) reported from East Calder, Scotland

    @bt_uk absolute shambles of a service. Sat on hold for 29mins to then be cut off because your call hours are from 8am-9pm. I called within that time. Broadband setup has been absolutely shocking from Openreach install, product delivery & now setup. Get me on DM or phone ASAP!

    @FinlayMcF @bt_uk The two next to Tupiniquim on Lauriston Place are in slightly better repair but are mostly used for drug deals and emergency toilet situations 😕

    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.

    @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!

    @btsport your coverage, excusing and support of Vunipola today was a disgrace. But hey, sports first, eh and let's ignore the rest.

    @bt_uk broadband still not working in Edinburgh, is there any news on when it will be fixed?

    @bt_uk been trying for 3 days now see my bill. Please don’t tell me you are not aware of any problems. How about telling me how this can be resolved. You emailed to say bill is available ……. All I get is 3 dancing dots !!!!!

    @bt_uk shocking service not had internet or Tv for 3 weeks, engineer arrives last night said in the service box repaired issued less than 15 hours normal service resumed and in tv or internet, and now no one will pick up the phone, quick to charge you the bill ... @EE @numan64

  • thfcsimonm
    Simon (@thfcsimonm) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve been trying to cancel a line for 8 weeks. You still haven’t done it. Absolutely disgraceful useless service. BT is probably the worst conglomerate in the UK

  • Red_Rescue
    Sebastian Colt (@Red_Rescue) reported

    @bt_uk Speaking to support on the phone anecdotally this seems to be a significant problem. I think the scale of it can be tracked by how many calls last less that a few seconds (due to dead air) or how many pin numbers are requested but not used. (as they are not supplied in time)

  • duncsand
    Duncan Anderson 🍃🔋⚡️🤖 (@duncsand) reported

    @neural_theory @bt_uk No way to cancel on the website and I really had to hunt to find the phone number - they're trying their hardest to make it difficult.

  • CatherineG2009

    @btbusinesscare Not helpful really. Any business needing help has to wait for Tuesday. Absolutely useless service. Currently experiencing THIRD week this year of broken service. Bank holiday should be my busiest time, but I’ve had to close. 0/10.

  • MrAndyMich
    Andy Mich (@MrAndyMich) reported

    @bt_uk I’m absolutely disgusted, in this day & age of phone scams you have people phoning from unsolicited numbers about contract renewal (+44 1438 989233). All the person on the other end of the phone could say was “I promise I work on behalf of BT”. I said I can promise I’m the king of England. Do you see how stupid and dangerous this practice is? I think as a company you desperately need to review this, it’s dangerous and it’s making me think if you can be trusted at all. In this day and age it’s unforgivable to do this in this manner.

    PT1 @WeAreOpenreach Formal complaint incoming. @bt_uk @EE Order placed 6 April ahead of house move on 15th. Install promised 22nd. Now pushed AGAIN to 5 May with ZERO explanation. Repeated 48hr updates that deliver nothing. No broadband, TV, smart devices — for nearly a MONTH.
