  • kiekyobadeo KX (@kiekyobadeo) reported from London, England

    For a company that prides themselves as Europe’s largest telecoms service provider, @bt_uk have the most lousy customer service team in history! If I go into detail on what I’ve been through!! All because of one master socket install. Which mind you still hasn’t been resolved.

  • Spiderchoc Mr Kippers (@Spiderchoc) reported

    BT internet is down because of course it is. I pay the same amount as someone who has 4 times the speed. @BTCare ******* garbage. I’m out of contract now, have very few options but all are far cheaper than BT so will be looking at them now.

  • ySoCereal_ G (@ySoCereal_) reported

    @bt_uk I ordered fttp in Dec and they came to install it on the 10th Jan but there was an issue with a blocked pipe so the engineer has to wait for a civil team to install a new one delaying my fttp for up to 6 weeks. I was meant to have a gamepass 6 Months free code after the work..

  • Matt06390722 Bundysama (@Matt06390722) reported

    @bt_uk Yo BT - my mother has been without internet since December 25th and no landline. She is unwell and has terrible signal in her house. This is not good enough by any standard.

  • johnwb2032 john2032🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@johnwb2032) reported from Milngavie, Scotland

    @bt_uk Why is the sound so bad when watching TV through bt box.

  • Gsurosi Stan Kelman (@Gsurosi) reported

    @bt_uk why offer me a package that’s no longer available? Or was it taken in the 2 months it’s taken you to install my broadband @OpenreachHelp. I imagine @virginmedia treat their customers far better than this I should consider going to them instead #Bt #openreach #complaint

  • revdgarry Revd Garry Roberts (@revdgarry) reported

    Hey @toobbroadband our ridiculously expensive contract with @bt_uk ends in a month and we are desperate to get away from them. Are you able to say when your service will arrive in So198FN? Is it worth waiting a few weeks?

  • MarineMermaidUK Hannah Milburn (@MarineMermaidUK) reported

    92 days with no internet, @bt_uk claiming not entitled to compensation because it was a major outage from @WeAreOpenreach - openreach engineer who attended said there wasn’t. Still not been contacted by BT manager. Come on BT. @Ofcom
