  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk To the mobile number, correct? I just want to make sure the mobile number is legitimate as BT have never text me from a regular mobile number before. Cheers ☺

  • SJWilding Simon Wilding🔸🇪🇺 (@SJWilding) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    Absolutely shocking "help" from @bt_uk regarding a total **** up with a new broadband/landline order leaving a grieving widow basically alone and uncontactable. Thanks.

  • jonesy23 lee jones (@jonesy23) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk @BTCare Hi Team. I currently have the fibre 100 package (fibre to home) however I seem to experience severe performance issues when we have 2 laptops running in the apartment. Could you please contact / send a wii fii boaster possibly ?

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk As it was before. We have been having problems for months with our connection, and are really put out that nothing seems to have been fixed today after finally having an engineer out to help. He said that there might be a problem with our router and he has--

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk Hiya, we ended up calling BT again and got some answers. Turns out there is an external problem which is due to be fixed this week. Thank you for your help :)

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk hello. We were due to have our engineer out today between 8-1 to fix our Internet which we have been told is 95% in amber and working at the worst rate. I have had a text at 10:19 claiming that our service is back to normal, but no engineer has knocked on the door (1-)

  • rider45 Brian O'Keefe (@rider45) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @K_Katastrophe @DebbieFletcher @bt_uk Plusnet is separate from BT but owned by them, I think you’ll find with the big companies that customer service is poor, especially now with many call centres cut back, I’ve been with BT broadband since 2001 not let me down thus far.

  • xTerronga 𝖝𝕿𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖓𝖌𝖆 (@xTerronga) reported from Braintree, England

    @bt_uk This has been an ongoing issue for a few weeks now, my partners phone keeps switching to mobile data because it keeps dropping out and now she has none left 😑

  • howiesway Darren (@howiesway) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @BTCare I have received calls 2 days in a row claiming my PC has a malware issue. I have hung up on both calls, I am assuming this is a scam. This seems to be on the increase.

  • beckiewood69 Beckie Wood (@beckiewood69) reported from Heybridge, England

    @bt_uk I have a very bad broadband connection today, trying to WFH is proving difficult. BT not says no fault but there most definitely is

    @londonirish ********? My @btsport box ******* died this afternoon so didn’t see it.

  • gottapulse Gottapulse (@gottapulse) reported from Witham, England

    @bt_uk I have been trying to cancel my BTsport subscription for 40 minutes now but each time I get transferred to cancellations the line goes dead. Has happened twice now. Please advise.

  • pseveruscarter Paige 📚🎮 (@pseveruscarter) reported from Sudbury, England

    @bt_uk The engineer. We were told when we called that our Internet was 'the worse it could be'& that we needed something on our line fixing. The engineer text me saying he ran a line test at my house and then left. Since then our Internet has still been disconnecting and is as slow--

    @bt_uk my internet is down, I’m stuck in with 2 kids on lock down, and after nearly 45 minutes on the phone you still have not answered. Absolutely disgusting customer service 😡😡😡😡😡

  • Therockstar111 Rowan Richards (@Therockstar111) reported from Chelmsford, England

  • Verscuse 🏳️‍🌈 James 🏳️‍🌈 (@Verscuse) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Hmm... There's various things you can try to see if it on your network or the actual connection

  • Verscuse 🏳️‍🌈 James 🏳️‍🌈 (@Verscuse) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @KillerKoalaz @bt_uk Perhaps a device or person on your network is using it heavily at this point?

    @bt_uk sat on the phone for 25 minutes in a queue for your advisor to hang up on me as soon as he answered and asked me my name 🤔🙄😡

  • Treakz Richard Beaumont (@Treakz) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks Catherine. Doesn’t really help me know how I’m going to work for the immediate future. Man on a digger tells me he’s cut through the streets broadband cable yet you can’t confirm the status? No point in me doing a status check, I know the status already …….

    @bt_uk your internet was fantastic for the first month but now we have not paid the extra to get the fastest one you do. It’s now a disgrace can’t even watch Amazon without it buffering constantly. One unhappy customer

  • ae_gloves Amy (@ae_gloves) reported

    @bt_uk my mum has waited in all day for her TV/internet installation. She was told at 11am that you would be there by 12pm but no one showed. She has waited in especially and called multiple times but can't get through - help please!

  • Saz_Logue Saz💕 (@Saz_Logue) reported

    @bt_uk Signed up for BT TV, but even with 500MB broadband it’s sledging!! Seriously interrupting my @itvcorrie Not a happy customer!!

  • earlamt LadyT (@earlamt) reported

    @bt_uk why is it not possible to call you on a mobile when the BT broad band and land line breaks down? Also why does it take you a week to even send an engineer to fix it. Not good when you work from home.
