  @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

  @bt_uk hi your internet has been nearly non existent for the last few days! Signal keeps dropping and hub is tripping all colours of the rainbow!

• 
  Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported 30 minutes ago 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.

  @bt_uk your app is telling me my last bill was not paid on time? But it’s paid by direct debit and went through no problem.

• 
  Ian Rohde-Bell (@ianrohdebell) reported 32 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @bt_uk @commuter_girl Why do we have to pay for these? I don't understand why you're allowed to sell inferior service for higher prices.

  Josh Bancroft 🎙📻 (@JoshBancroftUK) reported 33 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Daniel Couser (@couser85) reported 34 minutes ago from Bury, England

  @bt_uk can’t get on a live chat! We can’t get so Wi-fi signal to the back bedrooms of the house. We’ve had the smart hub for the last 4 years is there an upgrade?

• 
  Cheyvonne Bower (@femaledec) reported 35 minutes ago from Croft, England

  @bt_uk Another month, another charge for a call that was never made. No phone plugged in but apparently I ring the talking clock at least once a month. I have sent a message with details 😡

• 
  Alex Davies (@alext_davies) reported 42 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @bt_uk hi was expecting a call back today for a long standing issue where you are charging me for a service that should have been cancelled and I cannot use. I have rung BT about 20times & it’s still not been resolved

• 
  💖M💖 (@RunningMissM11) reported 42 minutes ago from Urmston, England

  @bt_uk is the service down today? My connection keeps dropping. It’s done so 8 times and it was doing it yesterday as well as Sunday.

  Dr Amanda Lee (@amandaleehull) reported 42 minutes ago from Barton upon Irwell, England

  @bt_uk three different bills to get out the contract - lots of phone calls and your bills get higher every time… hope these calls are all recorded as thanks for opening the complaint - looking forwards to a formal response . #CustomerService #poorservice

  Jay_Therapy Up North (@TherapyUpNorth) reported 45 minutes ago from Manchester, England

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

  Jonathan Kahn (@jkisthe1) reported 47 minutes ago from Salford, England

  Can anyone not open @btsport on an android TV or is it just me? It tells me that my Internet is the problem, yet everything else works perfectly, suggesting that, actually it isn't

• 
  Indomitable Strength Barbell Club (@IndomitableUK) reported 55 minutes ago from Salford, England

  I’d personally like to thank @bt_uk for being the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. 2 months after my order & I’ve been messed around constantly with still no broadband or phone line. Nobody knows what’s going on. CCTV, card terminals and computer all left useless with no net.

• 
  The Shire (@AskTheShire) reported 57 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @bt_uk eventually get through and you guys tell me I'm wrong about my Internet intermittent issues your agents are rude and then hung up on me. 50 mins on the phone to be hung up on.

  JoycieB (@blairjoyce3) reported 5 minutes ago

  @bt_uk 8 weeks ago you mis-sold my elderly parents a 900mb broadband package which we have been trying to cancel since, despite your "5 working days" claim. I won't go into additional details here, as it continues to get worse, but I am absolutely disgusted with your company

• 
  Steve (@SanatoriumSteve) reported 5 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Hey BT or EE or whoever the hell u identify as at the moment. Sort ur damn app out!! Logged out multiple times over past few days, for what reason?? Have had to verify who I am each time!! That's including the 2 hrs wait for a text verification code just to continue!!

  Steph Murray (@DerekDonkey1977) reported 7 minutes ago

  @bt_uk 9 engineer visits No home phone and inconsistent broadband Poor!

  JB (@tinkjlb) reported 24 minutes ago

  @bt_uk absolutely disappointing service from you! 4 missed installation appointments, 4 days of annual leave WASTED!!!! Please tell me how much annual has to be used before you will actually connect the service so I can have WiFi to work from home and watch tv? Exhausting!

  @F1 Exclusive is the problem. A hub of motorsports fans in the UK are screed by this. F1: Sky MotoGP: BTSport WEC: TNT Naturally, two have to go. This gets more of a joke every time.

• 
  George Somerville (@geosomerville) reported 32 minutes ago

  WiFi over the last couple of months has been shocking. @bt_uk installed new socket, router etc still bad. Decided to change suppliers but according to BT I don’t have a landline or broadband package with them! This would be fine if I wasn’t paying them £70 a month! Can I find someone to help at BT? No I can’t……

  @bt_uk Hi. I have done that, cleared. Called the number which button to press, as it's all about products, not help with online account?

  Trevor Chenery (@Krisp06) reported 34 minutes ago

  @countrymousie @btbusinesscare I wouldn't have thought so. You can keep your landline but you would need to move it -eventually - to a 'digital supplier' when the line service finally ends. However, I checked with Dr Google & his Elves & they made the following points which sound like very good news. "Starlink does not directly provide a traditional copper landline service, but it can fully replace one as part of the UK PSTN switch-off by supporting Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. You can keep your existing phone number and handset by using a VoIP adapter connected to the Starlink router, suitable for replacing old copper lines. How it Works: Starlink provides high-speed internet, allowing you to use third-party VoIP providers (e.g., Plexatalk, Premitel) to make calls via your internet connection. Requirements: You will need a VoIP Analogue Telephone Adapter (ATA) to plug your existing telephone handset into the Starlink Wi-Fi router. Suitability: VoIP over Starlink is ideal for rural areas where copper is being removed, offering sufficient speed and reliability.Alternatives: If you do not wish to use VoIP, you may look at mobile phone-based solutions, which are also often used when replacing old copper lines. As the UK moves towards a digital-only network by 2027, switching to a VoIP service via a broadband connection like Starlink is a common solution." You need to find & check it al lout with a good IT man to help you through the key steps & stages. You may also need to invest in new telephone hand sets around your house to replace your old BT ones. You won't need wires to connect them, it all works digitally through the air.

  @WeAreOpenreach @KeoghsLaw @bt_uk The link does not work. I have sent you a private message! This is truly ridiculous by Openreach who as far as I can gauge are acting in bad faith!
