  • 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.

  • PravPatel_ Prav Patel (@PravPatel_) reported from Manchester, England

    @bt_uk are your internet services down in Manchester?

  • 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.

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

  • FreakDanceUK FreakDanceUK (@FreakDanceUK) reported from Blackburn, England

  • 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 Ofcom would make of that...

  • buxton081 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 james buxton🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@buxton081) reported from Burnley, England

    @bt_uk No not yet, still can’t order online and still can’t do it when I ring! Got some team working on the problem!

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

    Thankful that @bt_uk have contacted me, know there’s a problem with my internet - and someone’s coming Weds afternoon to sort it (dropping out/slow) - I hope! Engineer may be able to fix outside, but may have to come in - in PPE. V friendly Olga organising on the phone.

  • RunningMissM11 💖M💖 (@RunningMissM11) reported 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.

  • 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

  • gkse16 Graham Henderson-King (@gkse16) reported from Salford, England

    @wearysole4 @virginmedia @bt_uk I thought it was just us but totally agree the network speed is shite round here.

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

    @bt_uk That amount of **** adverts I've come across with him on it.

  • StretfordEndT Tony (@StretfordEndT) reported from Urmston, England

  • Lerounxi Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported from Salford, England

  • TheQuietLAD Luke D (@TheQuietLAD) reported

    It's a bloody good job I don't need my home Internet for my livelihood, but I can only imagine how many people @bt_uk screw out of income and work because they can't deliver the service people pay them for.

  • ianmccormack ian mccormack (@ianmccormack) reported

    @bt_uk BT disconnect an elderly vulnerable couples land line and mobile for the sake of profit. Inept & untained staff unwilling to fix the issue and telling lies. TBC

  • lloydy1189 Lloydy (@lloydy1189) reported

    @bt_uk just lost internet connection to all devices. Router restarted but same thing. Sky box says unable to connect. iPhone just spinning. What issues are going on currently?

  • Steady2192 SteadyJDS (@Steady2192) reported

    @lawrielee @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp Worst provider (alongside Sky) for broadband

  • Peterha52150574 Peter hartley (@Peterha52150574) reported

    @bt_uk currently on hold for 15 minutes to chase landline complaint on my mobile. Fault reported over a week ago. Not the company it was. Back to talk talk I think

  • PhdTownTrail Peterhead Town Trail (@PhdTownTrail) reported

    @btbusinesscare, @BTBDirect, @BTSopenreach A whingey thread from a frustrated consumer. On Monday, it was windy and the phone lines serving my house and some neighbours snapped off at the telegraph pole and landed in next door's garden. I phoned my service provider to report it.

  • TheQuietLAD Luke D (@TheQuietLAD) reported

    Because why would they? @bt_uk have me on a contract so it doesn't really matter to them of they deliver the service at this point.

  • DanTheMan__98 Dan (@DanTheMan__98) reported

    @bt_uk The frustration is we are paying for a service that we're not currently receiving and won't be receiving for another week minimum and that's if the engineer actually fixes the problem, it's very poor.

  • SLT_Carla Carla Bartlett (@SLT_Carla) reported

    @bt_uk It would be much appreciated if customer care called you back when they said they would. We have had ongoing issues since joining BT in March, multiple engineer visits and still not resolved - it is unusable - very disappointed with whole experience.
