Worst company i have ever dealt with. All they are interested in is signing you into a contract then providing you with crap service. My broadband speed was 2MB! When i complained they said the small print states a minimum of 1 MB ! They then offered me an updated router for £70. Dont be fooled by the name. BT is crap. Ive since moved to talk talk. Excellent customer service. Excellent broadband speed and at 1/3 of the price. -

Honestly I can cope with the crappy broadband speed, what really pisses me off about bt is how often there’s a problem and we just lose internet all together. I’m a student and I have a whole lot of my work online, I rely on the WiFi heavily, so when there’s ‘an error on the line’ so it just doesn’t work and I can’t do anything it’s bloody inconvenient. Inconvenient doesn’t even describe it and I would be a lot more vivid if I could. If I could I would give it 0 in broadband reliability and overall satisfaction. Our WiFi has stopped working altogether multiple times and each time they **** around for a while saying that an engineers coming and then that there was an error and they can’t so it’s delayed and I end up going weeks paying for extra data and piggybacking off the school WiFi and my friends hotspot which costs me money and isn’t good for anyone. On top of this because of where we live I don’t have service anyway so I’m not contactable for a while and can’t do anything. The only reason I wouldn’t give customer service 0 is because I have pity for the poor ******* who work for this company. We pay £30 or something a month for this and honestly I think we should be paid for the torture which is using bt.
NEVER USE BT, ITS HELL. (Especially if you live in the countryside). -

I am very disappointed of this company.
Prices always go up during the contract. When contracts ends they charge you more than normal. The internet speed it's not great. During the night the internet sometimes falls.
I will NEVER use BT again in my life. -

We went with bt as the previous tenant was with bt and we thought it would be a straight forward swap to our name. This was not the case ! We had an order for the phone line and internet to be changed into our name (which apparently you need an engineer to come out 2 weeks later to do) when this was done, we recieved a new number ..we requested from day one to keep the previous number as we were running a business and that was the number our customers where familiar with. We were informed that as soon as the order was completed we can ring up to confirm the number change, So we did. We were then informed that the number would be changed within 24 hours .... 24 hours later the number was still not changed. After ringing back the following day we were then informed that there was another order on the account that had to be completed before the number could be changed. As we had not placed an order they cancelled the order and told us it would be another 24 hours before the order would be cancelled and then to ring back for the number to be changed. So as you can guess we rang back 24 hours later to change the number to then be told someone didnt cancel the order so they would cancel it and it would take another 24 hours ( why it takes 24 hours to press the cancel order button I do not know! ) since receiving our bt order on 5th November we are still waiting to have the number changed back to the original number! After being on the phone many days and many hours I was finally passed to a supervisor who informed me that IF I WAS TO PAY FOR THE BUSINESS ACCOUNT I WOULD RECEIVE A BETTER SERVICE! Which we were told at the beginning it will be easier to stay as a personal customer for now as that is what the previous tenant was and that it would be easy enough to change at a later date! After speaking to this supervisor I was informed that he would cancel the order and he would call me back to re arrange the phone number change between 11:00-13:00, did I recieve a phone call ? NO I DID NOT! I rand up at 13:02 to find out why I hadn't recieved my phone call and the lady on the phone said she had passed the message on for me to get my phone call. The NEXT day I recieved a call which was not from a supervisor and was informed there is nothing they could do as I'm not named on the account even though they have been speaking to me everyday since getting Bt and everyday they recieved permission to talk to me and permission to change the number! All we want to do is have the original number back on the landline which has took 8 DAYS so far and still counting ...

WORST INTERNET EVER! I've tried many different service providers but this is the icing on the cake when it comes to bad internet! There is no internet full stop! The constant connection dips 24/7 is ridiculous! My emails don't even come through for days coz of how bad it is! I can't even game online anymore coz the lag is unreal and embarrassing and everyone keep telling me to switch my service provider coz it's trash! Don't ever go with BT, It's horrendous. I connected it to my phone but it doesn't even connect to my TV. Absolute trash! -

After 90 days I finally managed to get broadband ordered. I had to chase BT up for info all through the process instead of them coming to me and the text messages I received bore no relevance to my order. After all that the final guaranteed speed that they can give is an abysmal 3Mb/s -

I feel like every one of the reviews for every service provider is automated by the opposing competitors to extend the likelihood of finding different providers.. by was good for me yet the reviews are insanely bad. I got a good deal and had to sign off of it as I literally didn't need it because I bought a phone contract that gets 100gb data a month.. -

We pay £87 a month for shocking broadband. The download speeds are appalling and the speed test online states they are not able to process the speed - which is a complete cop out. Disgraceful having to pay this amount of money a month for such poor broadband -

BT should restructure their appalling customer services operation that has completely ignored my complaints. I shall be moving to a more professional provider as soon as I can, and I strongly advise others to avoid BT.

BT are the worst. I have bought extenders, upgraded the hub, splut the signal bought more discs, upgraded the service and still have a terrible broadband signal. It pulses and drops out. Only works next to the main hub to watch a film, slow everywhere else in the house. BT only guarantee a signal everywhere in the home, yes I can see the broadband, but it is too slow to use. Avoid at all cost, read their small print, do not guarantee a useable broadband, only guarantee it to the house. -

One day the wifi just stopped working. It has been two and a half weeks and it's still not fixed. Their communication is terrible. No one knows what is going on. It has cost me time and money trying to do the job Im paying them to do. Worst broadband. -

The worst experience I have ever had. I would look to use anybody but BT.
If you enjoy 2 months of hell with a customer service team who are completely inept then this is the service for you.
I have never come away from working with a company with such a passionate distaste for them.
CHOOSE ANYBODY OTHER THAN BT -

I have been trying to add "complete wi-fi" on to an existing package. This costs an extra £8 per month but would solve issues we have with thick walls. To sign up, our BT TV package will only last 18 months and BT broadband 24 months. This will mean a 6 month gap and pressure to sign up for another contract with BT. This is a risk that could be too costly. Very disappointing.
