    @bt_uk funny how you are supplying data to the nhs workers yet unable to help us switch from you to another provider in the designated time leaving our 15,500 patients unable to get through to us during the pandemic, when they need us most #rumneyprimarycarecentre

  • nicnacnoopixs Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    So after 2.5hrs of trying to source the issue and finally getting confirmation that our internet fault is outside of the house and down to @bt_uk have now been advised it’ll be fixed my 9th April - looks like we won’t be working from home this week then !😡 #time to change

  • speedupdating Nick Speed (@speedupdating) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @seimon76 @privilegecafe_ @DC_Wales Try the #DevicesDotNow campaign from @futuredotnowuk which we have been supporting at @bt_uk - with devices going to @Online_Centres - longer term, it may be worth considering joining the network - pob lwc. #digitalinclusion

  • MHswans Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  • desta_omar Desta Omar (@desta_omar) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    6 calls 3 live chats 2 texts 1 complaint cut off 3 times. Still no wifi and continual landline issues for an 82 year old lady who has been shielding for 22 weeks. Worst service in a pandemic from an essential service @bt_uk #btbad #cutoff #isolated direct reply plz

  • cosmickx 🔮 ᴄᴏꜱᴍɪᴄᴋ ᴍɪsᴀ || (@cosmickx) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk is there an internet and landline outage in Cardiff, Wales? Our phone is dead and our internet keeps making a noise and switching itself off

  • nicnacnoopixs Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    @bt_uk what’s going on guys - after a run of two weeks and no internet issues now we’ve got nothing again !

  • OzUrfaCardiff OzUrfa (@OzUrfaCardiff) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @btbusinesscare hi bt have you got any idea to stop charge the shops for linerental. Because shop is closed any many other company are not changing the costumer due to covid. I have a restaurant and closed down temporarily but im still paying bt

  • STEVEOLUCKY7 Steveo Davies (@STEVEOLUCKY7) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    Wtf @btsport watched the @ufc main event this morning on record from last night and the recording ends at the last bell , I dont even get to see the winner of potential FOTY...

  • iainmspillane anfänglichinteressantesaberunterwältigendeslied (@iainmspillane) reported from Grangetown Community, Wales

    @btsport Having a few audio issues with the commentary here. A few words are getting garbled and I can’t understand most of what they’re saying. Can you ask Fletcher to take his tongue out of Messi’s arse and that should clear it all up?

  • nicnacnoopixs Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    @RichCounty27 @bt_uk Unbelievable honestly, we pay for the super fast broadband as we use it for home tv and both for work but am seriously considering moving now - another bloody week with no service and paying a fortune to run a hot spot thru my phone

  • starr3126 Gareth Starr (@starr3126) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @bt_uk I find since we've had BT Internet it's very poor. Had it installed as Sky didn't do fibre in our area. Trouble with initial installation, which was eventually fixed. WiFi drops out daily, lags when the boys play the xbox or if I'm streaming via the PlayStation. #poor

  • TNevillee Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    @bt_uk Your wifi is absolutely ******* shit, thanks

  • TNevillee Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Honestly have the worst internet in the whole of South Wales, contacted @bt_uk so many times to sort it but **** all has been done. Joke of a company

  • Statto1927 Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, Wales

    Commentator on this match just apologised if any Portuguese speakers are hearing any “fruity” language as can hear players clearly. Going to be a nightmare for @SkySports @btsport commentators when UK football restarts. Will be continually apologising for bad language 🤬

  • ferch_Cenydd Hadley 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺☠️🌈 (@ferch_Cenydd) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Oh, you have no idea how much patience I’ve had to excercise with BT for a few years. Improvements seem to made though, sensible call staff recognising a problem straight off, competent engineer sent ASAP. Just need to sort out recurring problem with local telegraph pole!

  • TNevillee Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    BT are easily the worst broadband company there is, customer service is absolutely ******* pathetic aswell @bt_uk sort it out

  • cosmickx 🔮 ᴄᴏꜱᴍɪᴄᴋ ᴍɪsᴀ || (@cosmickx) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk We haven't had internet for the last 3 days, still don't and your customer service has been awful. We all need the internet in the house to work and fulfill tasks but your company just doesn't seem bothered at all.

  • Owen_Jenkss Owen (@Owen_Jenkss) reported from Risca, Wales

    @bt_uk how is my connection so bad, 300kbp/s download speed absolute joke, I can’t even load a video on my phone *************** now

  • Loraine02407982 Loraine Robinson (@Loraine02407982) reported

    @jtwbailey @bt_uk Spoke to someone a few days ago and he was so obnoxious and rude definitely in the wrong job. Most have bent over backwards to at least try and help. Make sure you write everything down and ask for a copy of the call my issue is why are we paying for something that doesn't work

  • _hanamorris hana (@_hanamorris) reported

    @bt_uk It’s always crap and we’ve had a booster which doesn’t work either. I would’ve got back to you sooner but the internet is so rubbish that I couldn’t.

  • Boyscout1981 Adam Neale (@Boyscout1981) reported

    @bt_uk Broadband engineer came out thought everything was fixed, but still having issues. Reported again and now no updates as to what's going on???

  • agfrance Alastair France (@agfrance) reported

    @bt_uk And... where it says to add the service online you get taken to a nice PDF which says nothing about adding it online. Says to dial 1572... "The service cannot be connected". You have to assume BT is not interested in solving this problem. As soon as I can ditch the landline...

  • Vinny_81 Paul Vincent (@Vinny_81) reported

    @bt_uk Took a contract in Nov, order messed up at the time. Had hours on phone. Router performance is poor, found out I am still on the wrong plan,more hours on the phone. Said it was sorted yesterday and now accidentally cancelled my bt sport, calamitous.Still not sorted 4 months later

  • Emily_Pownall Emilyyy (@Emily_Pownall) reported

    Wasting my morning off sorting my internet with @btbusinesscare. Actually sick to the back teeth of their crap service

  • agfrance Alastair France (@agfrance) reported

    @bt_uk TPS doesn't help (or at least doesn't help enough).

  • Vinny_81 Paul Vincent (@Vinny_81) reported

    @bt_uk the worst customer service ever experienced. Embarrassing!!

  • agfrance Alastair France (@agfrance) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you Martin - that seems to work. But please suggest to those in charge that they review the materials... the fact that you had to give me a link directly which doesn't seem to be advertised from anywhere else... Let's hope the service works!

  • hibsnibs Lynne H (@hibsnibs) reported

    @bt_uk can you say with certainty that you will provide my broadband service on 8 Feb, i.e. 21 days late and after 8 consecutive missed promises of service, engineers, calls etc.?
