  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Henllys, Wales

    Shocking service from @bt_uk - no phone or internet for a week! Vulnerable adult here and nobody cares! welfare - ref C37677360 - only comms I'm getting is from Dave at @OpenreachHelp ! Sort it out BT!

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Bt business 0800800156 they said they would call back if the line got disconnected. No call back was received. I'd like to cancel the service please as I was hoping to postpone the installation but after a disappointing experience would prefer not to continue with it

  • CitrusArtsUK Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare What could I put in a DM that isn't already in my Tweets? I've even include a Complaint Reference number for you.

  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • johnsey80 Steve Johns (@johnsey80) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I'm not a @bt_uk customer but spoke to Payel via their chat service today to help my sister out. Above and beyond customer service, a credit to the company. Thank you Payel & BT

  • photographyrsp Rob S Photography (@photographyrsp) reported from Porth, Wales

    @bt_uk I have Kevin, thanks for the reply.. is there an issue in my area?

  • photographyrsp Rob S Photography (@photographyrsp) reported from Porth, Wales

    Dear @bt_uk It has been over week since I’ve had a mobile signal at home! My postcode is CF39 9HL - I had to find out for myself that maintenance is being carried out to rectify a problem, what’s happening now? Also, will I get a refund? Thank you!

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • RebIrvine Rebecca Irvine (@RebIrvine) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk on our 30th cal day with no Internet; BT advisors have stated the fault is with @OpenreachHelp but your Internal systems are not talking to oneanother effectively leaving us with no information on the nature of the problem. The estimated fix date goes up weekly. Ideas?

  • cymruchris Chris Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@cymruchris) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @bt_uk I've just released I'm being charged for a sim that I asked to be disconnected months ago. Can you help please?

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

  • UKEmpLawyer James Moss (@UKEmpLawyer) reported from Allt-yr-Yn, Wales

    @omitbdf @bt_uk The person I spoke to from @bt_uk, who eventually called me back, did not know what LOS meant on the Openreach ONT. I had to Google it & informed him it meant Loss of Signal. Pathetic service so far - we still have no WiFi.

  • BigBernie4 Greg (Big Bernie) MW7BUF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇵🇸 (@BigBernie4) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @bt_uk no service all afternoon in the NP19 7LT area. Checked the status page, no known issues apparently. Tried to speak with an advisor, and there are none available. What's happening please?

  • CitrusArtsUK Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    I had at least 3 conversations with staff saying this wouldn't happen, but it happened anyway. Now 3 weeks later of broken promises after broken promise they still can't re-connect us. @bt_uk this is total incompetence and foot dragging to repair your mistakes.

  • TheExiledRobin The Exiled Robin (@TheExiledRobin) reported from Llantrisant, Wales

    If it wasn’t bad enough watching this it’s made so much worse with this TV coverage. Please never let BT Sport have cricket again 😩 @btsport #ashes @Channel7

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point

  • MissESilcox MissESilcox (@MissESilcox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • darth_noga Noga Fett (@darth_noga) reported from Barry, Wales

    Absolutely shocking service from @virginmedia a 47% price increase for a customer of over 25 years and would rather lose a customer than give us a deal that new customers get. @BTCare @SkyHelpTeam can you do any better?

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • C0CO_LISSA CONSTANCE THE HORMONE MONSTRESS 💕🫦😈 (@C0CO_LISSA) reported

    @bt_uk Yes my internet is still not working and I don’t understand why, I tried the options you suggested but it was still no help. I’ve switched off and on the Wi-Fi box and this is the 4th day and it’s still not working I don’t know what to do.

  • solteague Solomon Teague (@solteague) reported

    Day 8 of Broadband Hell - where there is no broadband. Service from @BT_UK horrific. WFH nightmare. Hotspot off v poor 4G signal or working at in-laws’ house 8 DAYS & counting. £52 p/m for hrs dealing with helpdesks & waiting days for yet another engineer visit. HOW MUCH LONGER?

  • gkinsella Gary Kinsella (@gkinsella) reported

    @bt_uk seems you have removed the customer out of customer service. I had to call for support yesterday evening. The agent opened a complaint and this morning it’s been closed without any update or addressing of the issue. I am so glad my customers don’t such a crap experience

  • AndrewExplainer Andrew Knowles - Copywriter (@AndrewExplainer) reported

    @bt_uk Hi - internet service very poor in our area this evening. Streaming is stop-start.

  • ElizabethWaight Elizabeth Waight (@ElizabethWaight) reported

    @bt_uk The problem is that I can’t get my account number because I can no longer access My BT 🤔

  • Lisaluvsmotogp Lisa 🌻 (@Lisaluvsmotogp) reported

    @RacingArmchair I just think it's out of order that they've changed it without any notice I can't stand the world feed that's why I never watch warm ups. If this is to get new fans in they're gonna lose a lot of the old ones. I only pay for BTSport to watch MotoGP

  • Zach479129001 Zach (@Zach479129001) reported

    @techepow @bt_uk Wouldn’t have a problem if you was with @skytv

  • Sue_fle Sue (@Sue_fle) reported

    @Baddiel I see you follow BT! @bt_uk powered by fools! Telegraph pole swapped outside -= no broadband service and it will take BT over a week to get an engineer here! Will lose a weeks pay and elderly folk won’t be able to watch the BT package! All for £100+ per month!!!

  • WessexWeather Simon (M7WWX) (@WessexWeather) reported

    If you are a @bt_uk customer, did you have a duplicate direct debit taken this month, then refunded a week later? I wonder how widespread this was, and how much money BT made by holding onto everyone’s money for a week… @BTCare
