    @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

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

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

    Your systems work correctly? Once is bad luck but twice is just plain rubbish. There's no online chat available either to sort the issue out. I guess she'll have to spend 2 hours on the phone to you tomorrow trying to get a refund. It's just rubbish! @btsport @BTSportBoxing

    @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?

  • Stirling061
    Ian Stirling (@Stirling061) reported from Salford, England

    @skysports and @btsport must end their collusion with Premier League clubs to rip off fans by charging £15 to view games during a pandemic. This is a very poor way to treat fans and their subscribers who already pay them large amounts. Play fair with fans.

  • storm_imaging
    Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi. I moved home and had my services transferred. No problem. Today I have received an email saying I will be charged for ending the contract early and received another email about returning kit?

    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.

  • MrPeteEdwards
    Pete Edwards (@MrPeteEdwards) reported from Urmston, England

    Hello @bt_uk and @WeAreOpenreach how can it take 3 weeks , to not resolve a broadband dropping issue in a Manchester property. Our broadband is off.. and seemingly no-one know why.

  • KLBretherton
    Katie Bretherton (@KLBretherton) reported from Bolton, England

    @bt_uk internet’s been dropping out for over 12 hrs. Done all the tests and resets and it’s all saying it’s ok (it isn’t). I’m not going to be able to work without internet access, can someone help please.

  • ChelleAbraham
    Michelle Abraham (@ChelleAbraham) reported from Wigan, England

    @bt_uk Hi , we have moved over to you from sky & our broadband will be connected on 28th March. I've created a BT login but I can't access my email as I want my email address to be a BT one. I've tried several times but no luck.

  • femaledec

    Wow. @bt_uk are ‘sorry I find my bill confusing’. It’s not confusing. I’ve never had a landline plugged in but being charged for random calls to the talking clock for two months. A burglar perhaps? 😡

  • jkisthe1
    Jonathan Kahn (@jkisthe1) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk Hi @bt_uk , I have already called 0330 1234 150, but the agent refused to resolve the issue and insisted on the payment. I will NOT call again to be ignored. I have proof of cancellation and equipment return.

    @bt_uk @ah_potts What “cache what cookies”?? All other apps working just fine. I cant log in BT only. I have been trying for ages! You have sent a bill and I cant access it . Really terrible service😡😡

  • AlexaOByrne
    Alexandra O'Byrne (@AlexaOByrne) reported

    @bt_uk @stokeygurl I’ve not been able to get into my online account for weeks due to a fault caused when BT upgraded their system a few weeks ago. No account access for weeks, BT cannot help and hence I’m now taking my landline, broadband and mobile contracts elsewhere! Loyal customer since 1993!

  • pencil316
    David Percival (@pencil316) reported

    Horrendous service from @bt_uk. Dealing with my Father in Laws account and getting threatening letters when we’d been reassured it was sorted. Disgusting. Stay well away.

  • Jacsplace3
    Jac Dee 🇺🇦 (@Jacsplace3) reported

    Finally, a customer service employee from @bt_uk is taking ownership of my complaint. Apologies offered by her. I have requested a timeline of everything to identify human error in ceasing the account. Agreed a plan to reinstate broadband & get a refund from @EE @BBCWatchdog

  • Darren_Lewis1
    Darren Lewis (@Darren_Lewis1) reported

    @bt_uk typical BT broadband neglecting loyal customers - renewal prices for a customer of 6 years - charging WAY MORE than the market rate and WAY MORE than if I was a new BT customer. Shame on you, I thought those days of not caring about your long standing customers was over.

    Stunningly inept service @bt_uk. 3 wks 2 install full fibre culminating in them saying my router’s incompatible & they’ll send a new1 promising arrival Mon. Mail just recd; it’ll arrive Weds & seems 2b the same as I have! Meanwhile I’m w/out internet & paying 4 the privilege.
