    Michael (@miguelinho2910) reported from Middleton, England

    @bt_uk my 1571 service isn't working properly. I press 1 to listen to messages, it says I'm pressing 8. I say "one" after the beep, it says I'm saying "eight". I assumed it was my actual phone but I've now replaced it with a BT one and it does the same. Help please!

    @virginmedia @BTCare do you want another customer?

  • leehow2
    Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    @BTCare your app is garbage! I've already tried once today to buy a monthly pass without success and it took me two hours on the phone to get a refund. My Mrs has just tried to buy it and the same thing has happened to her - doesn't recognise BT ID or Password. Why can't you make

    @btsport atrocious customer service today when i phoned to speak about an unacceptable 20% price hike mid contract.

    @bt_uk Hi, my internet is running painfully slow - I’ve done a speed test that’s coming back at 32, but I can’t connect on my devices, also whilst watching Netflix/Prime it’s buffering. Could you arrange a booster for me so I can give that a try before finding a new provider?

  • ianrohdebell
    Ian Rohde-Bell (@ianrohdebell) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk Thank you. It's very frustrating that this wasn't provided at time of sale. It also doesn't seem right that there is now an additional expense required to guarantee basic service that we used to be able to rely on.

  • DidymusBrush
    Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    @Darth_Vivid @virginmedia @bt_uk @TalkTalk @SkyUK It would be nice to get 100mb once. Never even had half of what we pay for. Wonder what @Offcom make of that...

  • Lbartram
    Lee Bartram (@Lbartram) reported from Rochdale, England

    @davidakime @btsportmotogp @btsport Does that have all the sessions on Live and then on demand and is there a way to get it on your TV? Can you airplay it via an AppleTV for example and is it 4K or HD? Ha ha sorry for all the questions, genuinely interested as I have never had it 👍 #MotoGP

  • AskTheShire
    The Shire (@AskTheShire) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk Ping goes does to 50k ms and then it drops off totally with no internet traffic as explained to your agent who told me it's WiFi. Its not I've got ping and traceroute data. There is an issue and to reiterate intermittently.

    Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk Well, it looks like I’m getting a new account set up. No idea why as I have correspondence to the new address about my move. As long as I don’t lose service.

    @bt_uk Sorry but you really don't give a sh*t. You fekk up at every contact. Hopeless 'guides', rude, dismissive, unwilling to take ownership, never advise calls are recorded on call backs and now trying to charge me for a temporary fix!!! PATHETIC.

  • davidjjackson
    David Jackson (@davidjjackson) reported

    @bt_uk He offered to put a complaint in, but admitted it wouldnt amount to much. So I said what is the point. Whilst I have had some rubbish service from staff, the problem is @bt_uk itself. How can you sell a service, wth new hardware that is not capable of delivering that service?

  • shakinahx
    Shakinah (@shakinahx) reported

    @btbusinesscare This doesn’t help. I need my WiFi on

  • Alex_CK2
    alex (@Alex_CK2) reported

    @BT_UK My parents been without WiFi for 3 days. They were told it was billing issue despite paying and having proof. Today my mum was passed between 5 people, blaming either billing or a copper wire switch. No fix, no warning, despite paying hundreds each month. Awful service.

  • brassbubs
    Barbara Starkey (@brassbubs) reported

    @bt_uk when are you going to fix the BT app? For over a month now we have been unable to log on and access our account. Neither can we do it online. It's beyond a disgrace

  • SimonMitch1956
    Simon Mitchell (@SimonMitch1956) reported

    @bt_uk @herbie963 Call them and chat online is a joke. I put a complaint in and they’ve just dismissed it out of hand and closed the case without even talking to me !

    @bt_uk @whatawallyart Internet down AGAIN!!!!! BT has to be the most useless company ever. Of all nights to go down…. Third world company for a third world country

    @bt_uk Well it don’t. It’s obviously an app issue and yes my device is all up to date.

    Jake (@jakehumphrys) reported

    @Plusnet @bt_uk It's been reported on PN, BT and EE forums now but there seems to be a regional issue with your GGC cache (specifically affecting some in the North West / Wales and Midlands) When Connecting to rr5---sn-cu-cime7 and others there's a bad initcwnd that lowers speed

  • nooneatnowhere
    noone@nowhere (@nooneatnowhere) reported

    @bt_uk If it's not installed at the 3rd attempt we are going to the ombudsman. BT and Openreach cannot communicate with each other and neither can tell the customer what is happening...or worse, what is NOT happening!
