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

    @Darth_Vivid @virginmedia @bt_uk @TalkTalk @SkyUK It still doesn't excuse the slowness, the constant drop outs, and the near impossible chance of getting through to customer service.

  • drchrisferguson Dr Chris Ferguson (@drchrisferguson) reported from Manchester, England

    Great customer service @bt_uk from Haydn in Warrington. Made dealing with my parents internet problem a breeze

  • MrPostlethwaite John Postlethwaite 🇬🇧 (@MrPostlethwaite) reported from Salford, England

  • drbexl Dr Bex Lewis #KeepYourDistance (@drbexl) reported from Stockport, England

    @bt_uk Aside from the dropouts earlier this week (which am putting down to weather) has behaved itself since Thursday - much smoother than old router, thank you.

  • Ric_Bond Richard Bond (@Ric_Bond) reported from Manchester, England

    Clearly the continuing high winds up here is adding to the risk, and if the cable snaps I imagine it creates a very real safety issue for pedestrians - plus of course my service is being disrupted all the while @bt_uk

  • JoshBancroftUK Josh Bancroft 🎙📻 (@JoshBancroftUK) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    I've asked both @bt_uk and @EE to solve some problems over the last couple of weeks. Both have failed, both seem to have forgotten after promising to get back to me. With so much competition this really shouldn't happen anymore.

  • Woodlin37 Karl Watson (@Woodlin37) reported from Chorley, England

  • disruptivedean Dean Bubley (@disruptivedean) reported

    About to move house. Currently looking at options for broadband in new place. Main problem is trying to find prices for 12-month contracts. @VMO2News only seems to offer 18mo, and @bt_uk website defaults to 24mo Not obvious how to find the 12mo deals @Ofcom may need new rules

  • sky_waller Saff - Variant 1283 ☀️ (@sky_waller) reported

    @amestris_star To be fair, I think it's just @bt_uk who are the issue. Absolutely useless.

  • sky_waller Saff - Variant 1283 ☀️ (@sky_waller) reported

    Hey @SkyHelpTeam, @bt_uk are absolutely hopeless and apparently our broadband order is 'stuck in the system' and they can't fix it. It's been a week, we're trying to work. Can you help get us connected? Happy to swap to you!

  • roberto39516475 Robbie’s_Here (@roberto39516475) reported

    @bt_uk am truly shocked how poorly you treat your customers and what a complete **** up you’ve made off my account ! How do you manage to over charge £302 and send a debt chasing company after me ??? Shambles

  • baferg87 Bret Ferguson (@baferg87) reported

    @RugbyInsideLine Really poor coverage for the sport. Need to sort it out. Why have @btsport bought the rights then hardly screen any games?

  • Prizzle17 Prizzle (@Prizzle17) reported

    @CarefreeGB @bt_uk yep same for me, taken over 250quid out my bank account but despite this claim I'm not the account holder and won't tell me why😡😡😡😡 no customer service, no help at all

  • NoIAmTonyGreen Tony G 🇬🇧😻🇪🇺#FBPE #JOHNSONOUT 😻ADHD creative (@NoIAmTonyGreen) reported

    The @bt_uk call queuing service our GP uses is broken - no one is getting through - but it still pumps out encouraging messages saying "You are seventh in the queue". This is criminal negligence. People could actually die because of this.

  • LesOGrady Les O'Grady (@LesOGrady) reported

    @villabone @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp Had the same issues in the brewery including cutting off next doors phone line completely. Took 4 months + for the install. All they do is pass the buck and take no responsibility. Run away as quick as you can!
