  • TMCI73 The Morlais Castle Inn (@TMCI73) reported from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales

    @bt_uk Good morning Your sales rep purposely missold me a residential package for our business I have had £300 taken from my account for a service you haven’t installed yet, I have been calling your service for 2 weeks everyday and no one is able to give me my money?

  • CitrusArtsUK Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    I had at least 3 conversations with staff saying this wouldn't happen, but it happened anyway. Now 3 weeks later of broken promises after broken promise they still can't re-connect us. @bt_uk this is total incompetence and foot dragging to repair your mistakes.

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • hilaryhendy Hilary Hendy🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@hilaryhendy) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    Really great service from @bt_uk today. Don't want to tweet only when it's negative.

  • RebIrvine Rebecca Irvine (@RebIrvine) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk on our 30th cal day with no Internet; BT advisors have stated the fault is with @OpenreachHelp but your Internal systems are not talking to oneanother effectively leaving us with no information on the nature of the problem. The estimated fix date goes up weekly. Ideas?

  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • taffyqueen Susan Chennells Sturdy🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺 💙 (@taffyqueen) reported from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales

    @bt_uk is there an issue with full fibre broadband in the south wales area?

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

  • cymruchris Chris Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@cymruchris) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @bt_uk I've just released I'm being charged for a sim that I asked to be disconnected months ago. Can you help please?

  • TheExiledRobin The Exiled Robin (@TheExiledRobin) reported from Llantrisant, Wales

    If it wasn’t bad enough watching this it’s made so much worse with this TV coverage. Please never let BT Sport have cricket again 😩 @btsport #ashes @Channel7

  • Sammy78avfc Sam 💕🦥💕 (@Sammy78avfc) reported from Ebbw Vale, Wales

    Who are the commentators on BTSport? Absolutely awful

  • MissESilcox MissESilcox (@MissESilcox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • CitrusArtsUK Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare What could I put in a DM that isn't already in my Tweets? I've even include a Complaint Reference number for you.

  • Cobblerja JJ 🐧 (@Cobblerja) reported from Brynmawr, Wales

    @bt_uk my services are currently off. Ringing your customer services are a dead end. Please sort it out

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • taffyqueen Susan Chennells Sturdy🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺 💙 (@taffyqueen) reported from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales

    @bt_uk I still have no fibre broadband connection, it's the 4th day now having to rely on hybrid connect, which we only have a moderate signal to the network

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Bt business 0800800156 they said they would call back if the line got disconnected. No call back was received. I'd like to cancel the service please as I was hoping to postpone the installation but after a disappointing experience would prefer not to continue with it

  • NorthGwentBlue LeftofCentre (@NorthGwentBlue) reported from Argoed, Wales

    @bt_uk Hey why are you trying to renege AGAIN on a refer a friend voucher? Every time I refer someone you try the same trick to say it was ordered outside of the referall link, you cancelled the appt 3 times! I will not accept this treatment again. Your customer service is awful

  • AndrewS32704070 Andrew Shaw (@AndrewS32704070) reported

    @bt_uk Laura thanks not to worry. Complaint raised. BT were told to cancel call messenger in August. I've the call recorded. Nearly December & they are still charging it. Have been refunded, entitled to it. Given excuse employee has left. Not acceptable.

  • MrGreenGus Gus Hoyt (@MrGreenGus) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Rob, was automatically triggered when she visited America She’s ignore it as mobile data is off and no phone company charges for data not used The onus isn’t on the customer. It should be opt-in, not opt-out Plus. She’s in America- what’s the free number to call from there?

  • vallender_matt XCR Leclerc (@vallender_matt) reported

    @bt_uk can you tell me why your company and BT open reach don’t train your staff? Lie? Don’t fulfil contracts? Are lazy? And have the worst customer service of any company I have dealt with? 13 year olds have better customer service than you!

  • dsingh1784 This Guy (@dsingh1784) reported

    @bt_uk so far some really bad customer service. There’s a problem your end and it’s taking what feels like an age for the internet to work again. Please #dobetter

  • JadeBorton Jade Borton (@JadeBorton) reported

    @bt_uk my BT TV box has stopped working - remote doesn’t work, the buttons on the box don’t work - tried to reset but didn’t help! Who can help me?

  • Umario35833388 Umario (@Umario35833388) reported

    @virginmedia choose any other provider which has systems to resolve issues - wish I had gone with BT or Sky or anyone else. I have lost over 20 hours in customer service calls alone - horrendous service. @virginmedia @bt_uk #skybroadband #virginmedia

  • wildkippers Huw Evans #Annibyniaeth 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #FBIW #FBPE #FBPPR (@wildkippers) reported

    @bt_uk I beg to differ ... It's a BT failure that the minihub hasn't been delivered. There's a serious flaw in the thinking that it's our issue to chase DPD. Also 'comms' - what's happening about restoration of service for us and several neighbours?

  • hongkonggraeme Graeme Hall 🇭🇰 (@hongkonggraeme) reported

    Thank you @bt_uk for allowing me to spend 1 hour 20 minutes on the phone to 4 people trying to fix your mistake. Of course it would not have been so long if I had listened to the first person who provided me with (deliberate?) misinformation to discourage me from continuing.

  • ryancapitalcopy Ryan Smyth | Copywriter ✍️ (@ryancapitalcopy) reported

    @bt_uk Yea this service has been shocking. Was told by one advisor that my WiFi was stopped due to a missed payment. And once it was paid it would be back in within 24 hours. 24 hours later no WiFi. Just brilliant for somebody who works from home

  • hammerstu64 Stuart (@hammerstu64) reported

    @bt_uk I will cancel contract if no show tomorrow can’t believe the incompetence by customer services
