Got an offer, cancelled previous provider, get cancellation fee and BT can arrange engineer appointment in January 2023 - so we should be without broadband 2 months - I resigned. left frustrated, angry and £300 cancellation fee to be paid. Rubbish company -

Booked a box move, waited 3 weeks then they turn up at the wrong address, told it will be another 3 weeks to rebook! After 2 hours on the call, told their system is down so they can’t even book that and will need to call me back tomorrow. -

BRITISH Telecom, In my opinion do not deserve to have the word BRITISH in their name. They are an absolute disgrace. Customers work for BT not the other way around. Service = Not their problem, it should be Openreach.
Openreach= Should be called NoReach, they are never contactable if you phone them or take ages to answer.
The whole company in my opinion is a waste of time and customers should not have to put up with their lousy and expensive service. -

Absolutely shocking, changed from virgin to BT and was the worst mistake ever, engineers came and had to fit the boxes out on my balcony as they said they can’t drill the wall but did on my neighbours, had to get a giant extension lead from there to the living room, signal was always poor even tho I had the 5G booster box. When I said I didn’t want it anymore they said okay no worries just pay £233. Yeah nice one thanks for that -

BT’s customer service. Well there is a word that has no meaning to them. So we have complained multiple time due to a loss of broadband and phone line. Their response is always there is no problem. Engineers have tried to fix the problem, which works temporarily, but after a few days we have the same problem. We are now dumping BT and going with Vergin. Hopefully the service will be better, it could not be any worse. Funny thing is, one BT’s engineers recommend them.
So don’t hold your breath with BT. -

The main problem with BT is their appalling customer service. It is very difficult to find anyone to contact and wait times on their helpline are a minimum of 45 minutes.
This week I tried to report a fault via their SMS service; I was told that someone would contact me and heard no more. I then reported the fault via their automated troubleshooter and was give an appointment date. The engineer didn't show up and then I got an email giving me a visit date in a further week's time. That's an afternoon wasted.
Unfortunately I'm still in contract, but will be moving once that expires. -

Have the gaming WiFi package and can't even game, constant lag and when it is OK get elastic banding all the time. When I go to resolve the issue BT claim its not there wifi and the games servers itself when I know that's not the case. -

paying for 500 Mb and only getting 0.09 on download. A bit more on upload but still ridiculous speeds. They don't offer compensation and act like it's your fault. The staff are rude and untrained. -

Poor. Customer service is dreadful, connection doesnt work in the rain. They say its your fault when its their own, they say youve told them the problem is fixed when it isnt, and you havent. Can only get through by holding for over an hour. Joke of a company, same as EE so avoid both at all costs, had problems with mobile also but thats another story. Havent found one i can recommend yet though. -

If I could give zero stars I would. Without a doubt the worst company I have ever worked with. Not only did we have 5 engineers need to come to fix our wifi, two times people just fully did not show up without explanation or telling us. We did not have wifi for over a month and they did not care at all and did nothing about it. Seriously the worst customer service, worst service, and worst company. Will forever tell people how bad they are. -

It is 2022 and the best they have to offer is 1mbps download speed. There are villages in Africa with no clean drinking water that have better wifi than this. Stay as far clear of them as possible. -

Absolutely shocking. My new broadband was supposed to be activated yesterday. Still waiting! Called them back up and apparently there is a “fault”, and will have to wait 48 hours for it to be resolved.
Missing out on 3 days of work and wages because of these absolute idiots. No compensation, nothing.
Never go with BT. -

Quote a lot of interrupted internet connections.
They will also charge you extra for leaving a few days early from your contract, even though you've paid your contractual obligation. -

Useless customer service. Tried to call two times to understand why they are delaying the activation of my broadband. The first person couldn't understand anything I was saying and hang up without saying anything, the second one kept me 40 minutes on the phone and did nothing but saying they are busy and to stay on the line with him. I'm shocked, didn't even know such things could happen with a big company like this
