Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MarkDev20 MarkDev (@MarkDev20) reported

    @bt_uk On Monday we used the chat line to try and sort the renewal of our bt landline and bt sports. It’s been a while mess and have been blatantly mislead online by your operative Ujjwal Kumar. We are king term customers and feel totally let down. #bt

  • ScaryHighlander John G. Burns (@ScaryHighlander) reported

    @bt_uk Since installing fibre broadband on 6th October my landline phone service has been dead. Numerous complaints raised and fixes tried. I need someone senior to take ownership of the problem, how do we fix this? My business partner had the same issue, took six weeks to fix.

  • Pworboyes1995 Paddy Worboyes (@Pworboyes1995) reported

    @bt_uk @airbus319uk Mine is down. Me6 area. Don’t have a landline number to check but been down for last half hour 👍🏻

  • someBroka i.am.kaspar (@someBroka) reported

  • Alazkas_ Dan (@Alazkas_) reported

    @dannyfarrar91 @bt_uk Did you contact the number that BT commented? If not, what was your solution please?

  • IanStephensSim Ian Stephens (@IanStephensSim) reported

    @JayBoyd78603955 @airbus319uk @bt_uk Out BTNet line was also down for~50 mins. Connectivity resumed 10 mins ago. Still waiting on hold for telephone support as to discover the cause.

  • JayBoyd78603955 Jay Boyd (@JayBoyd78603955) reported

    @airbus319uk @bt_uk We are down ... BT not answering their phones

  • MicknJennynToby Toby (@MicknJennynToby) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Jules, many thanks. It would help if BT made it clearer that they would be reused on their texts and emails. Please take care.

  • sharonleamoore Sharon Moore (@sharonleamoore) reported

    @bt_uk Really? You have left my elderly vulnerable relatives without their essential landline for nearly a week! They have no way of communicating with anyone. They have been left at risk, with no access to any support or emergency services in the middle of winter. #BT_uk

  • julievygot Jules Escha (@julievygot) reported

    @bt_uk Why is BT Customer service so unaware of the need for an engineer to change from Virgin Media to BT broadband connection? There must be others moving from Virgin. Spoke to 3 BT advisers & none of them knew-I had to persist. Tempted to stay with Virgin to avoid the hassle
