    @Greg__Holmes @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp I raised a complaint with them last week about my broadband constantly dropping out, heard nothing until they sent me a text just to say my complaint is closed! No investigation, no communication. Useless.

    @bt_uk No we have intermittent service on all devices, I reported it after Christmas and got an email yesterday to say the problem was outside and had been addressed, clearly not! I am at work now so don’t have account details to hand...

  • rando__ James (@rando__) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    So back to the @bt_uk saga, ordered 12th sept, told engineer would install on 27th sept, no one turned up, phoned & told no network had been built & would get a phone call yesterday, didn’t happen. Called today & next update 9th November. Absolutely disgraceful.

    @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!

  • damo_sheff Damian 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@damo_sheff) reported

    It is absolutely ridiculous that in 2022 there are still parts of the UK mainline rail network (therefore parts of mainland UK) that you still can’t get a mobile phone signal! Come on @bt_uk @networkrail sort it out! 😡

  • JennyJacks12 Jenny Jacks (@JennyJacks12) reported

    @bt_uk Hello, what has happened to your online chat help? My very deaf friend relies on this to get in touch with you

  • Mr_CPettit Mr_CPettit (@Mr_CPettit) reported

    @bt_uk Apparent fix today, lasted an hour or so and now everything down again. We were offered a 4g mini hub on Saturday, still hasn’t arrived. Work continues to be disrupted and no contact from anyone today other than to tell us that the fault is ‘fixed’. Compensation for all effected?

  • sadfrah afh (@sadfrah) reported

    @bt_uk I did not find the help I needed

    @bt_uk engineer has just been and the line doesn't work so we have to wait until tomorrow for someone else to come out, so frustrating. What a mess! 2 of 2

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you for the quick response. Tried BT once more (that's THREE TIMES today) and got lucky - the agent understood the problem and is removing the marker. There is a training gap in your call centre, agents saying it was a @Plusnet mistake when it was theirs.

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    Trying to change phone from @bt_uk to @Plusnet. Plus Net say they can't takeover line due to incompatible "social telephony" & I must ask BT to remove it. BT deny it's a problem and say Plus Net can transfer. To and fro, to and fro. Neither will talk to each other. HELP.
