    @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 ☺

    @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-)

    @bt_uk Not a new build at all. Several operators ordered my broadband (phone line’s working fine) & then it kept being cancelled by the service provider. Numerous phone calls to yourselves, promised call backs didn’t happen. I gave you over 2 weeks to sort it out before going elsewhere

    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

    Shocking from @bt_uk ... mum and step dad ordered broadband 3 weeks ago for new property, engineer booked for today, doesn’t turn up. Ring them and told no network is built and won’t be for a while, yet website says everything’s up and running! Complaint made.

    @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?

    @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--

    @scottyd501 @xboxuk @btsport @bt_uk Yeah just wanted to check my options first, was hoping they’d help a loyal customer out... £46.99 a month at the moment.

    @BTCare @rioferdy5 Bloody terrible news. I can't remember the last time I watched it since ITV lost it. I Used to love sitting down with my brother's when we were younger watching it on ITV. Money is ruining the game and nothing can stop it!

    @bt_uk haha you are joking aren't you? The lines are only answered 8am-9pm Monday to Friday even though you complete migrations over the weekend now with what seems minimally trained staff and no support.

    @bt_uk hi my btinternet address has stopped working. I can’t get into it. It told me to call 0800800150 but I don’t have a BT number so I can’t get through the menus. How can I fix this?

    @bt_uk I am trying to reach your customer support to get an overdue promised update on case no C10002481840. Being on hold for an hour, purposely being ignored i assume. Please help. Not a good experience as a new customer.

    Devraj Ray (@devraaaaaj) reported

    @bt_uk Just spoken to your team, who've said I won't be connected for another 8 days. Signing up to BT Full Fibre has been a genuinely awful experience from start to...well, who knows what to. This is unending.

    Welsh1 (@D1Bluebird) reported

    @bt_uk Yes, BT is the service provider. BT need to exclude faults in the area and to be honest you should run tests. I've just tried to ring the Restaurant and the line is still constantly engaged. Ring the number yourself Come on BT go the extra mile. Support local businesses.
