-
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.
-
Wayne Hadley (@WayneHadley) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England@SkyCricket @BeefyBotham @David215Gower Beefy wants to travel the world promoting his @BothamWines and btw it's something very special 🍷but to call it a day with @David215Gower is a terrible decision. No doubt we will see him on @btsport or @primevideosport

Annette Pritchard (@touristory) reported from Barry, WalesWith no irony intended, I’ve been trying to download this story for 5 minutes. Nowhere as bad as some of the worst areas I imagine but really a few lines of text, just a couple of miles from Cardiff #Sully @BT_UK
-
Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales@btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point
-
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?

Jo (@rubyrockcake111) reported from Barry, Wales@bt_uk @OpenreachHelp @WeAreOpenreach @BBCXRay @skytv No Broadband, no landline no downloads, no catchup etc, for 6 weeks. Every week it’s a different excuse. This week lightening strike! I’m getting really fed up. Please someone help.🤯
-
Max (@Max25143798) reported from Newport, Wales@J_P_Green @btsport Fight won't be Khan never in a boring fight ! I see it going 12 rounds well I'm hoping 🤞💰🥊
-
NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Cardiff, Wales@bt_uk absolutely appalling customer service to my mum who had shielded since March 2020! She can't use BT sports anymore and BT are saying £130+ to remove it!! She doesn't have any money! She is stressed, immune compromised and BT drop this on her! Shameful!
-
Desta Omar (@desta_omar) reported from Cardiff, Wales6 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

Rob S Photography (@photographyrsp) reported from Porth, Wales@bt_uk I have Kevin, thanks for the reply.. is there an issue in my area?
-
Darren Little (@Npteggchaser) reported from Victoria, Wales@bt_uk having trouble with our home broadband. Have followed your advice on texting a number, but no reply & still the same. Also, can't access own account either, even after pin number for resetting password. Can you please assist? Is there any phone number I can ring? Thanks.
-
Shaun Porter (@srp0000) reported from Newport, WalesPremiership coverage is so much better on @btsport than @SkySportsPL at the moment, more polished, better interviews, less stupid playground style questions by pundits.
-
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?
-
Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported from Trethomas, WalesBT are easily the worst broadband company there is, customer service is absolutely ******* pathetic aswell @bt_uk sort it out
-
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.
-
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?
-
Don Maidment (@DonKiano) reported from Maesycwmmer, Wales@btsport The worst and toughest customer service experience I’ve ever had. 40 minutes of my life talking to an operator that had got no nearer to resolving my issue. Absolute awful service. Just ordered the monthly package tonight, paid £25. cancelled same night at a £25 loss
-
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?
-
Chris Murphy (@murfilicious) reported from Cardiff, Wales@bt_uk I am still having issues yes, someone at EE is currently investigating whether or not I have the package on my contract (I do)
-
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

NFTupperware (@TupperwareNFT) reported@mongrelcelt @bt_uk Don't call them, the slimy bastards will deny anything said on the phone. Raise an official complaint in writing. Send to their executive office for escalation. This is the exact reason I no longer have a bb contract. Had issues with 2 many providers. Now use pp SIM in 5g router
-
(((Ian McKenzie))) 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇫🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇬🇱 (@iMcKenzied) reportedUpdate on the @bt_uk fiasco. After 48 years as a customer I’m told I have to pay up to March despite never having signed anything nor being told I had a new contract. The new residents take over the line in 8 days so BT will be paid twice. There’s a name for that. Fraud.
-
Karen: “I identify as a Goddess 👑” Totes Bonafido (@ladylittler) reported@riprap1 Haha! The worst thing was you can no longer talk to anyone @bt_uk How they expect you to log on with no internet….Had to use my phone as a hotspot! Remember the good old days of it’s good to talk!
-
Kristen Covo (@kcovophoto) reported@bt_uk Not to mention I now have the inconvenience of having to post back your faulty product from a post office (are there any left in London?) Instead of your engineer just taking it. Why do I as a customer have to work for you?
-
Giles Shaxted (@gilesshaxted) reported@bt_uk I appreciate the response. After three phone calls from your loyalty team or whatever they called themselves. I ended up switching to sky. You should genuinely treat your loyal customers better than the new ones. It's not okay.
-
Claire🌹 (@sundaygirl851) reported@bt_uk Well so far when speaking to people he's just been fobbed off with 'well it should be happening as we speak so he feels like people aren't actually really trying to help him so he's reluctant to ring again snd is now stuck between 2 phones....
-
MumOfASwiftie (@Annette62702479) reported@KookyKym @bt_uk I’m on the BT900 (guaranteed speed of 700) and get less than 100 most days. No issues according to BT. Am still in contact with them to try and resolve this.
-
GerryC🏇🏾 (@Epsom1780) reported@bt_uk That number doesn’t work for me! Automated and asks for various things except for what I need, which is updates!!!!! 9 days and no news!! What do I do now!? No one will help!!!!
-
GerryC🏇🏾 (@Epsom1780) reported@bt_uk Into day 9 now of no internet and no news after damage to cables on site here in Church Crookham! Our service providers give us no updates! When can we at least hear some updates! This is just getting extremely silly! We now think Openreach don’t know how to fix it! 😑
-
Sue Alexander (@EphemeralArc) reported@bt_uk Last Wednesday, my elderly mother and I phoned BT about the new digital landline service. Everything was arranged for the 28th August. Today, we received a letter from BT saying 'Sorry you're leaving' and a letter from EE who seem to assume we're changing to them. WTF?
