  • SuePownall Sue Pownall Artist (@SuePownall) reported from Bures Saint Mary, England

    @bt_uk I don't want to receive the message. I want the number blocked. It doesn't ring on my phone but goes to voicemail and I have to waste time calling it and listening to garbage.

  • LesleyJ34566860 Lesley Jones (@LesleyJ34566860) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @bt_uk can you explain why daily on your app I get “ token expired “! I am constantly having to log in. I read that there is a problem with the app. When will this be rectified ??

  • Peckham_Heights Richie Fine™ 🏳️‍🌈 (@Peckham_Heights) reported from Clacton-on-Sea, England

    @VinylYesPlease @bt_uk I had two yesterday. Same thing saying Amazon Prime. I need to get me a whistle or something loud to play down their earpiece then they might stop calling.

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk hello. We were due to have our engineer out today between 8-1 to fix our Internet which we have been told is 95% in amber and working at the worst rate. I have had a text at 10:19 claiming that our service is back to normal, but no engineer has knocked on the door (1-)

  • Sandsy79 💁🏽‍♀️Emma💁🏽‍♀️ (@Sandsy79) reported from Halstead, England

    I can honestly say the customer service at @bt_uk is second to non. Even though they don’t connect me for 3 weeks!!!! They’ve still been great 👍🏽

  • SJWilding Simon Wilding🔸🇪🇺 (@SJWilding) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    Absolutely shocking "help" from @bt_uk regarding a total **** up with a new broadband/landline order leaving a grieving widow basically alone and uncontactable. Thanks.

  • beckiewood69 Beckie Wood (@beckiewood69) reported from Heybridge, England

    @bt_uk I have a very bad broadband connection today, trying to WFH is proving difficult. BT not says no fault but there most definitely is

  • princess_boo148 Laura Stevens (@princess_boo148) reported from Colchester, England

    @bt_uk absolutely shocking service from yourselves. Leaving my elderly mum without a phoneline and Internet and no way of contacting people then trying to say an engineer resolved the issue today when no one has been out 😡

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk Hiya, we ended up calling BT again and got some answers. Turns out there is an external problem which is due to be fixed this week. Thank you for your help :)

  • gottapulse Gottapulse (@gottapulse) reported from Witham, England

    @bt_uk I have been trying to cancel my BTsport subscription for 40 minutes now but each time I get transferred to cancellations the line goes dead. Has happened twice now. Please advise.

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk To the mobile number, correct? I just want to make sure the mobile number is legitimate as BT have never text me from a regular mobile number before. Cheers ☺

  • timcutbush Tim Cutbush (@timcutbush) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Yet another scam call from @bt_uk saying there’s an issue with my broadband. Third today. I’m not even with BT

  • Secrethamper Secret Hamper ™ (@Secrethamper) reported from Tolleshunt Major, England

    Hi @bt_uk our phone lines are down yet again, the 3rd time in as many weeks and 1-4 days to fix… this is our busiest time of year and we are missing lots of potential business which is costing us dearly

  • Box_Valley Adrian Chalkley (@Box_Valley) reported from Boxford, England

    Sad but our poor service from  @BT_uk  & @openreach continues, to recap ordered fibre July 16th on 7 Aug My BT website states an engineer will visit. Nobody turned up! A common event it seems 😣

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk The engineer. We were told when we called that our Internet was 'the worse it could be'& that we needed something on our line fixing. The engineer text me saying he ran a line test at my house and then left. Since then our Internet has still been disconnecting and is as slow--

  • pseveruscarter 𓆙𝕻𝖆𝖎𝖌𝖊 𝕮𝖆𝖗𝖙𝖊𝖗 📚🦢 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk Theres not, and we've been through all the steps. It's just honestly the worst Internet I've ever had.

  • BrianDry BrianDry (@BrianDry) reported from Coggeshall, England

    @NRManc @bt_uk Crazy isn’t it. Thank god or IT Specialists for internet calling since we don’t get any sort of mobile signal here.

  • ange_duncan Angela Duncan ⭐️⭐️ (@ange_duncan) reported from West Bergholt, England

    @bt_uk day 5 of no landline or broadband and expected fix date 23 June 😡😡 seriously shocking customer service when I phone to ask what you can do to help me …. Nothing unless I upgrade apparently. How am I supposed to work from home?

  • matt40k Matt Smith (@matt40k) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @ianwtasker @bt_uk Yer, prob with a copper service

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk As it was before. We have been having problems for months with our connection, and are really put out that nothing seems to have been fixed today after finally having an engineer out to help. He said that there might be a problem with our router and he has--

    @btsportfootball I must remember to cancel by @btsport subscription.

  • DSTSimpson Dan Simpson (@DSTSimpson) reported

    @bt_uk my router is flashing purple but everything is plugged in. I can’t get my landline number to check the status as your website won’t load my bills. Your contact us page promises a ‘message us’ button but it doesn’t appear. Can you help?

  • jonpatrick13 John P Murphy (@jonpatrick13) reported

    @cal_whitehead_ @btsport same here, so switched games only to get Jenas, crap times commentary wise nowerdays

    @garethlpowell @bt_uk Wow what a coincidence I also had same issues a day ago but luckily @Flexizecode helped me out in minutes.

  • IssieBarratt Issie Barratt (@IssieBarratt) reported

    @bt_uk Why have you disconnected my vulnerable mother’s copper telephone line ??? She needs it! She has a red button and well you know it. We’ve repeatedly phoned your employees over the past fortnight asking for help! Shame on you! Other locals are being disconnected too!

  • Dognz ChristianHyde_2🦮 (@Dognz) reported

    @bt_uk I've received a EE mini hub, though im a BT customer not a EE customer & STILL can not connect to my BT broadband for the 3rd evening in a row. Can you please advise

  • Georget95545661 Georgette (@Georget95545661) reported

    @bt_uk i can’t wait to cancel my broadband contract with you thieves! Rubbish connection and overpriced

  • Normanton0809 Five Towns Gossip (@Normanton0809) reported

    Good grief @bt_uk Broadband is terrible....If I wasn't tied in until Oct I'd be away in a flash. I pay for 70Mbs and I'm getting 12Mbs...and they've got the cheek to put the prices up. I appreciate it's 6pm and busy but jeez🙄

  • neal_army Johnny Neal’s Blue & White Army ⭐️⭐️ (@neal_army) reported

    @davegow1 @bt_uk I’ve found them OK before and need reliable WiFi as I WFH, but this shambles has raised a few concerns. Heard from a VERY good source that the issue is that instead of sending out new hubs, they try to get customers hooked up to old equipment which they know is unreliable.
