    @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??

    @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?

    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

    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

    @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?

  • Hanlccook
    Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @bt_uk the light on my hub is purple and has been all afternoon. I’ve turned it on and off multiple times. Still no internet. Can someone help me please!

    @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!

  • 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?

  • Hanlccook
    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?

  • 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.

    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?

    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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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?

    @bt_uk No known issue. Since there was BT van outside my home doing some sort of upgrade on the copper wires of the area. Internet been very poor. Already replaced router twice. When gaming on PC with ethernet cable plug in and someone makes a WhatsApp call my ping spikes to 500ms!

  • SamSmithHiggins

    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!

  • 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?

    My transfer to @bt_uk was not without issues but that was more down to @WeAreOpenreach and their obfuscation but now it’s complete I appreciate how poor @virginmedia was. The television is sharper and the internet is better. Thank you BT.

  • SwissKnee
    crinkly mo... (@SwissKnee) reported

    So, I found out the REAL reason my internet won't get fixed. @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp have ONE qualified engineer in my area who can deal with the issue, and they're the one who deals with emergencies (overhead cables etc)

    neil summersgill (@nsummers1234) reported

    @bt_uk No it was WiFi disc. Everytime I tried the BT app chat and said it was a technical issue it said no agents. So I just pinged the general chat via web and just thought pick something other than technical. Got me to someone who has booked engineer

  • saoirse60
    Jane davis (@saoirse60) reported

    @bt_uk Can you tell her to ring the right number 07395 153782. The other number people keep ringing should have been deleted from my file. It’s broken.

  • saoirse60
    Jane davis (@saoirse60) reported

    @bt_uk Please tell her to ring correct number. The number she keeps ringing is broken. It should no longer be on my file.

    @bt_uk I’ve already called in and Irene says I’ve to wait til next Friday to get engineer in .. again - You Don’t seem to have a long term strategy!? Do you? or you’re not bother to spend money sending engineer out. If this continues I will cancel my contract.
