-
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
-
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?

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
-
Alwyn (@ibsen67) reported from Cardiff, WalesJust reported scam automated phone call telling me my BT service will be terminated, to @BTCare. Its quite a realistic call with strict tone that u feel u should follow instructions. Did 1471 and number that called me was 01816792513. Clearly scam that's an old London area code
-
Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tylorstown, Wales@bt_uk @OpenreachHelp cabinet, it seemed all he wanted to do was run a speed test and tell us that the line was ok and off he went! Excuse me for this as I had the same issue and it took me 2 years to get the line replaced, I'm ready to get the same done here as it seems each
-
Giggsy (@DjGiggsy) reported from Cardiff, WalesWhy is it only now that I’ve thought about #MikeRiley using his self isolation to it’s full advantage. He could sit down & review the countless decisions that ‘his’ referees have f*cked up over the last 2 seasons. I’m sure @SkySports @btsport & @BBCSport could supply the footage
-
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.
-
Ryan Price (@ryanprice1927) reported from Llantwit Fardre, WalesTime to cancel @SkySports and @btsport as I am funding this bollox. £80 million ffs. Better centre halves in the Rhondda
-
Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales@btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point
-
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.🤯
-
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?
-
Han🏴 (@Hanlccook) reported from Cardiff, Wales@bt_uk Hey there! No it’s still not working 🥺 however, I’m moving out of my house tomorrow and Into my new one. I’ve already spoke to an advisor about this a few weeks back but I’m not sure what to do? There’s no point ringing for an engineer when I’m moving. Shall we DM?
-
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
-
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??
-
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.
-
Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, WalesCommentator 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 🤬
-
Janine Bates (@JanineBates) reported from Cardiff, Wales@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
-
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
-
Ryan Crocker (@crocker74) reported from Cardiff, Wales@btsport been trying to cancel or pause my subscription since football sent on hold. Phone lines jammed solid and No method via your website!!! Take a lead out of @sky book, and update your website. £36 a month for nothing! #Corvid19uk
-
Neil 'DBtC' (@crfc1876) reported from Cardiff, Wales@bt_uk @Tommy_OConnor You should be ashamed writting that, no sports coverage due to most serious situation we are likely to face in peace time and you want to charge 😱😱😱 On the poor service list you go for when this is over...

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Technicslover (@technicslover) reportedHet @bt_uk @EE we don't have a landlines any more and we're never going to subscribe to your ****** ripoff broadband or TV service so can you come and take the cable away? Thanks.
-
Norman Wilson (@nwwilson) reported@bt_uk Service is an absolute joke. AGAIN my Internet doesn't freaking work. Absolute dog ****. I am paying for this crap. 4 days for an engineer. NOT acceptable
-
BT Business Care (@btbusinesscare) reported@ReformedMr @bt_uk Hi, I'm sorry to hear what is happening. We'd like to help. We've sent you a DM now. Thank you.
-
Chris (@tringgooner) reported@bt_uk I think anyone would be unhappy don’t you? Messed around, then asked for a £20 deposit to that you will hold onto for up to 6 months. It’s a bloody disgrace. That is no way to treat any customer. And you know it.
-
The Real Philip Lyon (@phillyonskem) reportedEvery time I have to contact @bt_uk about our business phones, it says webchat is the best option. And every time, without fail, after a least a half hour webchat they tell me I'll need to ring such and such a number. Absolute joke of a company to deal with.
-
namecantbebrank (@alreetson) reported@bt_uk She's paying money for this service that she is not getting, do you understand this? That has been ceased without warning of this one line per property policy that was never communicated. What the hell would you do if you encountered similar in your life?
-
Mark (@Walesguy2) reported@bt_uk Paying a bill should be easy. Automatic. Why do you make it so difficult for your customers? I’ve already spent an hour on this tonight. And your complaints page wouldn’t upload. Funny that. You think I have that time to spend on a **** company that can’t organise itself?
-
The Real Philip Lyon (@phillyonskem) reported@bt_uk And to add insult to injury, the last 2 times the number they've given me is "not in service". Must be the worst telecoms company in the uk. Prove me wrong.
-
Josh (@_JoshDenham) reportedHi guys, is there any reason why my Broadband Hub won't connect this evening? I've tried the usual off and on again, factory reset but no connection whatsoever! Please help? @bt_uk
-
Robin Cornelius (@robincornelius) reportedTerrible day for getting work done today @bt_uk internet is down as there is planned maintenance that no one was informed about and no @ThreeUKSupport mobile data at work despite 3-4 bars of signal. This happens too often on your network had to go for a drive to get data
