BT (British Telecom) Outage in Braintree, Essex, England

So back to the @bt_uk saga, ordered 12th sept, told engineer would install on 27th sept, no one turned up, phoned & told no network had been built & would get a phone call yesterday, didn’t happen. Called today & next update 9th November. Absolutely disgraceful.

Shocking from @bt_uk ... mum and step dad ordered broadband 3 weeks ago for new property, engineer booked for today, doesn’t turn up. Ring them and told no network is built and won’t be for a while, yet website says everything’s up and running! Complaint made.

@bt_uk @MoneyTelegraph this is how BT are treating their loyal customers! I’m going to lose my house because of a default they put on my account - they never sent me a final bill to pay and my account doesn’t show any final bill owing! They refuse to help me smugly telling me my fault!

@bt_uk Dear BT - I am a loyal customer of many years. my credit profile has been destroyed by a default over a bill that occurred when switching to EE from Bt direct over a miscommunication and your team are refusing to help me. I am going to lose my house. Please intervene 💗😭

@btsport cancelling my service. This is shocking.

@BTCare is there a problem with broadband tonight in CM27PZ

@btsport @btsportfootball Keown just said another assist for Silva (correct) and useless commentator said yes. Another assist for Sane, he’s got most ... etc. So ******* shit. Silva was lucky he didn’t have his head taken off. BT sooooo poor

@BTCare Yes, that they are sending a new router and it will arrive Monday. Internet went down overnight on Wednesday. I have BT the benefit of the doubt yesterday rang today and new router being sent out leaving me with no internet for 5 days. It’s just issue after issue after issue.

@BTCare Yes. And was told yesterday arrived. It didn’t. I still have no broadband a week later. Pls help

@ashlea10711 @BTCare Try Virgin, if you want shameful customer service.

@BTCare Don’t worry, I’m with Sky and they’re just as bad.

@BTCare Why on earth is our broadband situation still not sorted out? It’s the worst it’s ever been. We got a text saying ‘we haven’t found a network problem’. Then tell me why nothing is loading at all!!! I work from home most days - I need broadband. THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH

@BTCare I have no idea. But we’ve had this broadband for almost 12 months now and it’s never been this slow.

@BTCare Then I have no idea why I pay so much money for a poor service!

@BTCare No not last week have had it a few months. But I'm on my 3rd smart hub already. As I'm sure t you are aware there is a problem where the hub refuses dns and gets caught in reboot loop. I have dropped 4 times in 2 weeks so far. :(

@BTCare No, I’m not wasting my time sitting on hold. I pay for a service, I’m not getting a service, it’s not for me to sort the issue out.

@BTCare Have you got a number that you don’t have to sit on hold? Tried going to the complaints part of the website, even that takes forever to load. Quick to ask to for money, not so quick to offer a service.

@BTCare I didn’t have to speak to anyone to set the account up, I don’t have the time to be sat on hold. Please either sort out the subscription on the account listed or cancel the account.

@BTCare I don’t expect to have to phone someone when I’m paying for a service. It appears that you can’t cancel subscriptions through the website. Please cancel my account GB12154750

Terrible from @btsport tonight which has kept interupting its college football coverage with its own adverts. 2 mins to go in the main game and BT just played a 1 min ad break before any actual break in coverage

@btsport Worst part of this is the fact that the stadium noise is dulled

@jcGcab @virginmedia @EE @bt_uk @SkyUK . WHAT free view box can I connect to your Wi-Fi @EE @SkyUK @ThreeUK @VodafoneUK I have a network of co axial cables from virgin just need the convertor connectors to plug into the arial connector on tv Tv are smart tv with freeview box built in so do I even need a box

@HannahB4LiviMP @bt_uk Major problems with BT. Mainly customer service. Being put through the circle of “untechsupport” getting back to the start but being no further forward. Eventually ditched them and moved to Sky. Not perfect, but much better. Customer and tech support much better.

@f1broadcasting @FIAFormulaE @Eurosport_UK @BBCSport @btsport @QuestTV BT sport better get their shit together and comfirn a deal. I have a Eurosport sub with my BT Sport sub but I really enjoyed it on bt last year.

@bt_uk fantastic no broadband for 2 days and when I phone up for help you cut me off 🤬🤬 customer services at there finest 👏👏👏

@bt_uk why is your wifi so ******* shit

@bt_uk Thanks, the problem seems to have fixed itself. It was last night (Friday) that we were experiencing issues.

@DanielBolland8 @EE @O2 @ThreeUKSupport @bt_uk Haha, my partner is also having an awful vodafone contract, cancelled her contract the other day for an arrears payment she didn’t even need to make 😂 (because she’s not in arrears lol)

@BritPackDrivers @f1broadcasting @FIAFormulaE @Eurosport_UK @BBCSport @btsport @QuestTV * as a bare minimum for every session, but some free to air coverage on a decent channel would help (especially during the winter as we have very little before March)
