  • 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 😣

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

    @bt_uk Well thanks for getting back eventually @TalkTalk quickly got back & have confirmed we will not have any service problems on Friday. I must emphasise I explained everything on the phone to your sales team who were not concerned, just wanted an order. We wait to see what happens!

  • 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-)

  • 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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • dankell Dan Kelly (@dankell) reported from Camden Town, England

    So between @bt_uk and @parcelforce I’ve had no delivery of new router and no engineer to do a line check. And no resolution to either complaint.

  • karenagalloway Karen A Galloway (@karenagalloway) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk internet still playing up. Send help !

  • damiankinsella8 Damian Kinsella (@damiankinsella8) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Hi @EE @bt_uk @BTCare is there much difference between EE & BT Mobile now, with regards too network speeds & quality. Seeing as BT own EE, I assume not, but any advice would be much appreciated

  • MCTundeBella Tunde Bella (@MCTundeBella) reported from Crayford, England

    @SkyHelpTeam can you pls fix the problem with your #skybroadband service. In recent weeks, My wife and I have had to use 4g from our phones while in the house because the WiFi has not been working. I am now seriously considering @bt_uk

  • DBananaman42 Dark-Knight-Bananaman42 (@DBananaman42) reported from Sunningdale, England

    @ChadSpeedfight2 @jerryzukowski @btsportmotogp @MotoGP @lorenzo99 @26_DaniPedrosa @Official_CS27 @ValeYellow46 @btsport Moro 2 and MotoGP bikes are totally different. Many move up only to be frustrated. Rossi is not hogging a ride. He deserves the place. He will finish 6 or 7 in the championship this year. His worst finish for years and years on the slowest factory bike in the paddock.

  • C_Collins1994 EKHO (@C_Collins1994) reported from Oakham, England

    BT having a massive logo in the middle of the pitch whilst the game is broadcasted on ITV is the greatest of shit housery #ITV #Bt #BTsport #England #england1000

  • chrismalkinson chris malkinson (@chrismalkinson) reported from Fleetwood, England

    @ScotlandSky coverage of Scottish football is awful compared to @btsport

  • PastPostPro Dan Walsh (@PastPostPro) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @bt_uk are genuinely the worst. Poor communication since starting my contract with them, poor resolution to a complaint that nearly lasted a year!! And to top it all off, my actual product didn't work until months after the order date, and would be described as patchy at best.

  • AnnieBabes Annmarie (@AnnieBabes) reported from Crayford, England

    @CosPearlyTog @MattyBanksDRFC @btsport @WWEUK Hopefully but don’t forget that sky was the reason we couldn’t (legally) watch the network for months after it first launched.

  • TheRealTR19 Tyler Richards! △⃒⃘ (@TheRealTR19) reported from Pencoed, Wales

    @bt_uk internet is the worst thing I’ve ever experienced. Can’t handle more than 3 devices or it’ll cut out, but yet when we complain they want to charge 100 pound for someone to come out and sort it, “fibre optic” my arse, absolute rip off
