Been with bt for 7 years since fibre was available in my area, I’ve got the fibre 2 package which the speeds were up until couple of weeks ago at near max 67mb, then after noticing speed was down to 45mb so I got in touch with them was told by a guy from bt that he sees the problem bangs on his keyboard for couple of mins then says give it 48 hours and it should be back to how it was, 48 hours later still the same so I get back in touch with them another guy goes through the same dummy steps and says that he’s put it on record and they will look into it, week later still the same so ring them again and explain it woman says it could be the hub so she will send one out could take 3 days to come, 3 days later no hub so get in touch with them again have to go through all the problems again with them even tho it was supposed to be on record so I wouldn’t have to explain! Anyway woman from bt says there is nothing down saying a hub was sent out and she is processing it now to get one out asap so couple days later hub arrives set it up try speed tests and it’s the same, so ring bt back up fella tells me that my speed is just over the minimum 46mb that was agreed with the contract, I try telling him that for all these years it was at max so we got the more expensive fibre 2 package now over time it’s gone down to a speed where a cheaper package would of right for us, But I hate the fact that over these years the internet price has gone up but the speed has gone down, he blamed my neighbors or closer to the exchange etc even Openreach were to blame!! Owned by bt I may add, anyway we agreed to it in contract so it’s tough poo!? Shocking company avoid peeps.

You will spend just as much time bwing without internet as you will with internet. Every other month you will have a full 2-3 weeks of constant disconnections which wont allow you to get anything done.

Easy to renew contract for phone and broadband. Broadband speed quoted as minimum of 53 mbps but getting only 30. Router log shows internet connection dropping out betweeb 20 and 40 times per day, generally during busy periods. Definitely not getting value for £55 per month. Telephone on same line having no problem.

On my Dads death I took over the BT broadband account only to discover BT were ripping him off over £80 for the basic broadband service. I relayed my utter contempt and disgust and camcelled the service. Do not use BT or deal with this company is my recommendation.

After ordering bt broadband as i was trying to move from virgin i realised the broadband was no good as i need a fixed ip address and that bt provided revolving ip addresses.
I used the broadband 2-3 times just to set it up but as didn't start using it until 2 days after the 14 day cancellation they said i owe them around £400 to cancel.
Absolutely ridiculous amount of money for a service i only used to set it up. now they have passed the debt to a collection agency and added 25% so it is now £565.66.
i told them numerous times on the phone the service was unusable to me because the ip address was not static. if they had made this clear upfront i would never have ordered but doing so would probably mean less customers so the details were hidden away.
I sent all the equipment back with 7 days but they then added an equipment charge on top. I used the broadband to set up 1 pc and never used the phone line at all.
how can such a company that prides itself on being a family operator be such an aggressive, venal predator?
At some point there will be a debt collector at my door to take my possessions. all because i went 2 days over the 14 days because it was not straight-forward to switch from virgin to bt as i run a home office.
THIS COMPANY IS A DISGRACE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Internet and phone including, for my own experience is just totally wasting of money, I regretted make the contract start at £31 and after got into £34. Don’t make contracts or deals with bt, customers services just crap and unprofessionals , unproductive. The services they provide not value and I’m sure you can find cheaper and better . They are very manipulative without having a clear payment at the end of the monthly also they don’t informed you about the prices going up.

Continually bad broadband service. BT told me that there are too many people connecting to the broadband service in the local area at the same time! Apparently this is not their problem! Awful people.

Absolutely terrible.
Ordered BT package on the 18th September, chased multiple times to confirm appointments as they had missed two visits. Had phone confirmation, email confirmation and yet they still don't turn up. Now being told 2nd November at the earliest. Still no service then after 6 weeks of ordering. Would not recommend BT to anyone.

BT is a totally unethical company. They hike the price and send a single email giving you 30 days and the email is not clear that the price is going up and you can cancel the contract without any penalties. You only find out once the direct debit goes through showing the higher price. Price hike is more that 15%. I will not be using BT ever again once my contract runs out early next year. When I extended my contact last December it said renew and your price will not increase, be careful as this is not true because any "general" BT price hike can still be passed on to you, so not worth the paper it is written on. Do not trust BT at all.

My family has been paying £50 for fibre for the last 6 months. We are getting 50% packet loss and our speed is less than standard broadband. In a futile attempt to ask them to fix it, we had them cut us off on the phone twice and haven’t tried to contact us since. I sent them an email 3 weeks ago with no reply.

Hidden charges if you cancel early. called to see how much it would cost to end the contract and they told me £15, the bill came and it was an extra £70 - not trustworthy

Was tricked out of switching - BT agreed monthly to match an equal competitor - they reneged 4mths in..just counting 6 months left of contract so BT can be excluded from my future...
BT lost a good customer - they just don't know yet :-D
Well done loyalty team ;-)

Ridiculous customer service, any given time of the day, any given time of the year. Their broadband diconnects pretty much regularly without any mistakes from our side and when a customer service representative is being asked about any failures they ask “how are we to know what’s going on?”
Their internet is good enough, speed and reach wise but it’s just not worth it. For all the hassle you get more hassle. Main issue is the customer service. Clearly a company that’s only looking to make a quick pound.

Haven’t even had broadband from them. Signed up over two weeks ago. Got told I would be connected and have internet by 12am on the 12/10 (over a week after I signed up). Engineer turned up and “sorted” everything. 13/10 and no internet. Get an email saying I’d have internet by 23/10. Both my partner and myself rely on the internet for work. I called them and the person I spoke to advised there was an issue with the exchange and said she has spoken to the engineer manager and manages to pull it forward to the 18/10. Got a text message 17/10 saying it would be the 23/10 again. Called and was advised they could not get an engineer out and I would have to wait for the original date. They will not compensate for the money my partner and I have lost in wages due to having no internet as we are not commercial customers. Called Virgin Media and they said they would send router out and would have internet in TWO DAYS. No engineer required. Never been more angry in my life.

the worst isp we've ever been with. currently getting speeds of approx 0.5mb/s and 600ms ping. called the customer service several times, they have been no help. lost cause of a service. also it became apparent that when we bought fibre optic and they installed it, they were supposed to install a new splitter for the phone/internet line but they left us with an old outdated one. outstanding.

Absolutely ridiculous service. I have been with BT for years. Recently I decided to change providers because the cost of their service is just ridiculous in comparison to other similar services. After switching provider to the Post Office I received a call from a BT customer support agent. The agent promised me a reduced price at £20 and included a £50 gift voucher to keep me to stay. After 3 months, still no sign of the gift voucher and emails about it ignored. The price has gone up to £24 without any warning. Avoid at all costs.

It's so bad. For years it has droped out, slows down and just does not work. We have been with BT for years, it's been really bad for the last five. The support team exists, but they are experts on sending people on a wild goose. We must have spent weeks on the phone with them over the years. Unfortunately, if you leave, you lose your email addresses. So it feels like a bit of a trap. I would advise anybody to avoid if you can, there are much better and more reliable providers for the money.

Very disappointed. Raised our price after a yer from 33 to 54 quid, this is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous. By reading more and more reviews I see that that seems to be the problem with everyone all the time. They value drawing in customers and screwing them over and you better be sure as hell that I am NOT coming back to them ever again. You can catch me at TalkTalk getting higher speed, reliability AND lower prices. We're paying for what exactly with BT? Most of the times I'd have my connection drop, their customer service is NO WHERE TO BE FOUND and they screw you over without even notification, an email maybe like HEY dudes, we're gonna raise your internet price with 21 quid now? Naaaah... who gives a crap about the customers themselves right?

The hours i have spent on the phone to this company is beyond belief. AVOID in the end switched to XNL for business very professional and great communications and they answer the phone within 5 seconds. Should the big wigs be brought in front of a parliamentary committee and drilled about why they are providing a unacceptable service!

Been with BT for over 25 years and the price increased to over £75 pm. They wouldn't budge on price so I switched. Best thing I ever did. My broadband speed has increased from 13mbps to 21mbps even though I'm on the minimum speed (and I was paying for a premium broadband speed from BT). Cost is less than 50% of what I was paying previously.

I bought a 5-day wifi from them thinking that I will be able to connect from home. Although I live in Reading near the centre, there was no signal, not even close.
So I called customer support to cancel it and get the refund. They said they can't do it and I need to do it online.
I've managed to cancel this wifi online without using it at all, but never got the refund from BT. Poor.

Absolutely terrible customer services! They are billing me more that my contracted sum and cannot get anyone from customer services to resolve the matter. BT clearly do not value their customers and from my experience are totally incompetent at dealing with customer services issues.

I cannot put into words how bad BT are. I can safely say that they are the WORSE company i have ever had the misfortune of dealing with.
There staff are poorly informed poorly trained and they even cut me off when they couldn't sort the issues. I swapped to a business line as they told me i would get a better broadband connection.. only thing thing they are good at is billing you. They swapped my line to business and kept billing me for residential too. 10 months being charged double..
This company needs a serious overall. If i could put a minus score i would. If anyone out there could avoid using BT i would higly recommend it.
Complete utter wasters. Service rubbish customer service rubbish.

If I could put no stars I would. Ive just never been through something like this in 2018 I cant get the speed higher than 2mbs and I've called them 5 times to try and sort it and apparently the fault has never gone through. They're totally unreliable. Im paying 45 gbp a month for practically no internet and no one has managed to successfully put my fault through to open reach. An absolute incompetent provider. I wish I could move!
