    @bt_uk We did get through eventually, after well over an hour. I appreciate you are busy, but for the handler not to tell us after having waited 45 minutes to speak to him that he was transferring us to another queue & putting us on hold for another half hour was really poor service.

    Worth checking your parents utility bills, just checked my MILs and absolutely disgusted that @bt_uk have started charging her £20+ more a month for nothing extra! 😡 and would cost her £622 to cancel her contract #beware #disgusting

    @btsport going on about Randolph like he's never played football before. Pretty sure he's an international and has bags of premier league experience. @themoderndaygk what do you think?

    @bt_uk a communication company that doesn’t know the meaning of the word. Disgraceful service.

    @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?

    @bt_uk hi, I’ve had an ongoing issue with a home move since last week. Apparently it’s being dealt with - this morning I’ve just received an email asking if I want the move cancelled. I don’t. I’m in the property. I’ve been messaging about this for some days now.

    Could it possibly happen today that @bt_uk finally manage to install our broadband, we've only been in the house a month... Never used so much mobile data #waiting

    @fowl_original @btsport @Omega_Luke @alpha_reel @hairywrestling @TEGamerUK @smacktalk_uk @WatchesJess @TheMattAttackUK @knankles I think Sky were still smarting from the loss of PPV sales when the Network was released in the UK just weeks into a 5 year deal.

  • GraemeDavis
    Graeme Davis (@GraemeDavis) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks for this @bt_uk - i did manage to speak to a BT *human being* and the problem is outside my home, BUT the process has triggered BT to book a fourth appointment to connect me to fibre. I’ve had three engineers who say it is impossible - Grade 2 listed house in a conservation area; cables would need multiple way leaves, no practical cable access to my house which is permitted by Grade 2, difficulty of routing inflexible cables once inside. I’ve accepted this, fibre cannot be installed to my home. How do I cancel the engineer and not rebook the engineer appointment which has been set up? There appears to be a lock on the system where it can only be rebooked even by BT; cancellation is absolutely impossible. Should I try a letter? Any phone process doesn’t work as operatives are not authorised to cancel but can only rebook.

  • JonD_Chadwick

    @bt_uk Thanks. I have tried that. Three times. Doesn't work

  • KG40332532

    @bt_uk I already tried that. It continues to say that fault is on BT's side. Please fix this.

  • KerZE87
    emze (@KerZE87) reported

    @bt_uk I already know there’s an issue as this was discussed on a community Facebook page. But it would’ve been nice to have been told by email or text that there was an issue.

  • Johnty14
    John Richards (@Johnty14) reported

    @bt_uk Please send me the details of how to make a formal complaint and the information to which ombudsman should be also informed.

    @bt_uk Did you read my message correctly? I do not have signal to call!

  • Ang_ryScotsman
    Angry Scotsman (@Ang_ryScotsman) reported

    @bt_uk Every time I go into the support we spend two hours. They do automated tests from some call centre abroad and tell me that my system's working fine. It hasn't been working fine since November so I'm just waiting to leave my contract.

  • karenbadcock
    Karen Badcock 🕷🇦🇫🇺🇦 (@karenbadcock) reported

    @bt_uk is it possible to speak with someone about serious internet issues in surrounding areas since major roadworks began? I also have a router to return - how is best? Thanks.

  • GraemeDavis
    Graeme Davis (@GraemeDavis) reported

    @bt_uk That doesn’t work @bt_uk 0330 1234 150 just directs to a txt service. What buttons do I press to speak with someone? I mean to apeak with a real live human being? Is there any way at all to get through to something called a person?

  • e4290936
    jack250213 (@e4290936) reported

    @bt_uk calling itself 'customer centric ' grates with me after an internal transfer of my broadband went horribly wrong, then four hard searches on my creditworthiness and three attempts to get BT broadband and a TV package also successfully completed by phone after a time on the phone that I regret all fell through with no explanation or apology. Customer centric? You are having a laugh BT!
