I couldn't get different registration numbers for my multiple complaints about speeds of 2mb download, which is a contract breach.
They cannot provide better service where i live, in weston super mare town centre, 300 meters away from the exchange. It's not like I have the cheapest service because i wanted to, but even that fails to stay within the contract guaranteed limits.
I will go to citizens advice and ask if there is a way to cancel the contract without having to pay a fee.
If anyone knows of what legal actions could be taken against them please share it.

In Weston super mare, near town centre, 300 meters from exchange and they could only provide 17mb download and 0.70 upload.
I have to connect to 4g if i want to attach a picture to an email.
I might as well send a pigeon with it, just stick to 4g or get broadband from any other company...even if they use BT infrastructure they can provide better speeds.
Just unbelievable how they can be called ISP, i'm waiting for the day I can cancel without a fee more then I am waiting for my bank loan to end. -

BT is worth company in UK.I am not recommend anyone, this BT company is bully and robbery from customers. I did contract for my business with them,I was make 1 contract with BT ( broadband and phone)together, when I made contract from the beginning, they didn't explain me for closing and cancel charge, now I was closing down my business, then i called them and explained them, that time they said me, you have to pay for cancellation fees for £183.15, i was accepted for this fees. I paid them £183.15 already on March 2019. Now they send me another Bill £475.64, So i called them, for what you send me another Bill, So they said this is Broadband cancel Bill. Can you believe this?? Now they said separate cancellation payment. who can pay for that amount £ 658.79???
Before i paid £183.15 , I called and asked them for this is last payment final Bill or not?, they said this is final Bill for Cancellation.
But, now they said this is another bill with different reason.
when i find solicitor, i will Sue bt company

Speed's actually not bad.... but the service and the company is absolutely atrocious. Operators have lied to me, they fail to call you back, they fail to follow through with problems. BT have just employed a new chief exec and he doesn't even come from either a consumer or telecoms background. This company is BROKEN. One of their executive level complaints team admitted that they all knew the customer service was terrible and claimed that was the reason they bought EE... so that they could show them how to do customer service. How these people have a licence to operate I'll never know. -

horrible service. They talked into 18month contract with package I don't need. and paying nearly 60 pounds for it. and they talk you into expensive contract although I informed them I wanted to reduce my monthly bills. After 18month, never again, with BT. -

I agreed a broadband deal on line. They cancelled my phone and broadband with sky on my behalf. They sent me several emails stating a date when my router would arrive and the date when my broadband be started. The day came I set it all up and I had no phone or broadband. I waited up till midnight when they said it may take till. Still no broadband. The next day I went to work when I came home still no phone line or broadband. I phoned and after waiting for 15 minutes for them to answer the phone was told that there wasn’t a portal for them to connect us to so the order had been cancelled yet no one had contacted me. I was told that I would have to wait 24 hours then ring back again to re order. So I did just that to be told on this occasion that I could only have the copper connection and had to go on a waiting list for the fibre connection and there was no time frame. I had to wait for someone to cancel theirs and then take my place in the queue. Also that I could not have my google home as agreed on my previous deal as it wasn’t on this copper one. Maybe when I finally got onto the fibre they would see what they could do. I can’t believe that a big company like BT couldn’t still give me the gift as some sort of compensation for all the inconvenience That was caused by them. I am absolutely disgusted by them. Do not go with them their deals are a scam as they don’t know until the date of connection if there’s an available portal. All to late as your previous supplier will have been cancelled. -

I've recently been experiencing a lot of problems with my so called BT "Super Fast Fibre Optic Broadband" speed (lots of buffering), internet channels unavailable and with the Broadband dropping intermittently. We frequently can't find the Broadband to connect to even on devices which have been logged in constantly. When the phone rings or a landline call made, it disconnects the Broadband and has done so from the outset, the engineers have not provided a solution. As BT have a new Smart Hub 2 with Wifi Disc to sell, I have a suspicion they're messing around with our broadband to force us to "upgrade" to their new product, for which there would have been no need as apart from the Broadband dropping out when the phone rings, was fine, coverage in every room was not a problem until very recently. I smell a big BT rat.

Horrible service - on the phone they claimed I would not need to pay for an old contract if I get a new more expensive one. I specifically asked if upgrading meant paying for the old and the new contract and the rep said they would leave a note on my account for this conversation. Of course they sent a £200 bill for the old contract, on top of paying for their Superfast Fibre 2. When I called they said no note could be found on my account and I should wait for the charge to come through and speak with my bank about reversing the direct debit. After the direct debit came through the advice was I should have done something about it before it, and nothing could be done now. -

Moved from SKY after 12 years, to BT, and said £29.99 month and free £70 loyalty card after 30 days. BT Delayed the Broadband 30 days as error at BT end so we had no Broadband for 30 days now 120 days later no Loyalty card and they say its not being sent now.Do not use BT,they promise things to get you on board, and after you sign 18 month contract, they do not pay the rewards.Going back to SKY at contract end -

Don't know where to begin. Changed from TalkTalk to BT on the hope of internet in every room. Five weeks later, I have no internet. BT gave me a start date, sent the equipment, ended my previous supplier, and then left me stranded. We run a home business, requiring internet. This hasn't seemed to bother the countless BT staff we've contacted. They're all 'sorry', and promise to resolve the issue, etc, but nothing gets done. It's a broken business. I've contacted my MP, because this appalling service should not be allowed to take place.
I'm speechless. -

Useless.
i got lied to when i set up my contract... the operator told me verbally 12 months they sent paperwork for 18th months( i didn't check my Fault) .... convenient they didn't record the call.
constant drops in service with no explanation.
changed my direct debit date from the 10th so i got 2 months worth of bank charges and damage to my credit file.
called 4 times to set up paperless so i wasn't charged took them 6 months to get it done correct.
there India complaints dept calls and there accent is that thick you cant understand AVOID BT.

Internet kepts cutting around 30-40 times in a day, as a gamer you can’t rely on it to play a single game without worrying about it being cut mid-session. Tried calling them about it and they said they cut it and also slowed my internet down because of “excessive usage” (downloading files, in my case it was a single ps4 game mandatory UPDATE from the legal market where every player has to update their game) on a contract that says “unlimited internet”. All i have done is watch YouTube video and amazon prime.
