Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Consett and nearby locations:

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk And people on Twitter may be looking for a new broadband connection and should be aware of the level of service from BT

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @bt_uk hello, I've had an ongoing broadband instability issue for around 6 months - frequently when I'm using IP voice applications the service is disrupted - I've tried to raise a fault on this a number of times - help!!

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Crook, England

    @bt_uk False alarm, it was a nice neighbour dropping off a Christmas card - I saw an Openreach van down the road and assumed that you had actually done something!!

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

  • foslar71 Peter Foster (@foslar71) reported from Consett, England

    Can someone from @btsport find that annoying kid in the @afcbournemouth stand and tell him to shit the f**k up.

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • HarrymBarham Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    A new development on the BT issue. Had a call following my Tweet from a person @bt_uk apologising for yesterday. Early termination fee waived, apology accepted and relationship restored. Both agreed that this wasn’t the way it should happen but impressed with the resolution.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • 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.

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

  • Hossy93 Joseph Drane (@Hossy93) reported from Brandon, England

    @Gaz_House @btsport Or you could go down the night before. 😉

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • 5now_uk Paul west (@5now_uk) reported

    @bt_uk Been having a reduced service only 5mb download opened a ticket got a text saying open reach will fix it reply to text which is all well and good if the reply works it just keeps rejecting and failing to send

  • avvabanana AvvaBanana (@avvabanana) reported

    @bt_uk There is an issue with the connection outside my house. My biggest issue is that no one bothered to tell me, I was still getting emails and texts telling me someone was coming today, and I find it ridiculous that no one can sort the issue until mid September (1/2)

  • peteypigleg P to the G (@peteypigleg) reported

    @bt_uk I never opted in and the end of their life was 30 years ago! FYI I haven’t been a BT customer for 25 years.

  • CHRISALANHUTCH1 CHRIS ALAN HUTCHINSON (@CHRISALANHUTCH1) reported

    @bt_uk Just checked my speed test on your website. There is a known fault in my area but the estimated fix was 8th of June and still showing as a known fault?

  • Bee_anchor Bianca Shead 🍃 (@Bee_anchor) reported

    @bt_uk I am desperately trying to get hold of a digital voice adapter for my elderly parents, who have lost the use of all but one phones in their house. I tried texting 61998 but having no joy. Any help appreciated!

  • SuperScienceGrl ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported from Bracknell, England

    @bt_uk A fix has already been run! I would like to claim for these historical issues separately to trying to fix any persisting ones. Otherwise I'm thinking I might not ever be compensated :) fix already done!

  • Nusbacher Lynette Nusbacher (@Nusbacher) reported

    @bt_uk After the engineer raised a call on Tuesday for an underground engineer to attend, someone at @bt_uk raised a new reqr for the original engineer to attend again. This deleted the call for the underground engineer. A new request has been put in, and I'm still without service.

  • AbbottHSV47 Charlie • (@AbbottHSV47) reported

    @EverythingBoxi2 @btsport @BTSportBoxing I know how it works I’m not stupid. The point I’m making is after his performance in the fight. Why does he deserve it and nobody wants to see it.

  • brianqpr brian QPR (@brianqpr) reported

    @bt_uk how can an upgrade go so wrong? Twice agreed to sent hub to my work. 1st not sent at all. 2nd sent to address I explained I wouldn’t be at. Changed the price then backed down and now sending a bag to the address I’m not at to send equipment back that I didn’t ask for.

  • GregFelix1 Greg Felix (@GregFelix1) reported

    @btbusinesscare do you think that your “service” levels would improve beyond pathetic if there were suitable competition? Or maybe your are competing with Openreach to see who can mess your clients around the most. Seriously we just need a telephone, how hard can it be?
