Out of contract and moving home I reluctantly paid bt’s extortionate month by month costs before finding a better service elsewhere so cancelled the dd at my bank. |

Not worth rating bt the customer service is a lie they are not willing to help it's all about the money always check your bill they will charge you for things you have not got they were charging me £75 on top of my bill which when ever I rang them they were calling it a business where as it's a private family owned terrace. |

Awful customer service from the call centre!! So rude was hung up on after asking very nicely to speak to someone who spoke English as they're call centre is based in India and couldn't understand. Such slow speed! And now they are telling me to get a booster and pay out another £30 after going over phone contracts numerous amounts of times as the wifi won't even reach 3m away. Would defiantly not recommend them! |

We normally struggle by with 3MBPS. A month ago I reported the line as repeatedly dropping and the speed down to 0.2MBPS. I've spent hours on the phone to call centres, listened to their infernal queueing musak, waited in for them to turn up -two no shows. Now expecting a broadband engineer to turn up next week. If I wasn't on a fixed term contract I'd have dumped them. |

Our BT broadband experience has been terrible, we've a problem with parental controls meaning we can't even get facebook. The help dept promise help but never deliver, we've had several promises of calls to help none of which materialise. This is our worst ever broadband customer experience - avoid BT! I've given a 1 star review because the zero option wasn't available! |

Daylight robbery. We have moved, we asked BT to keep the port open as we were looking to take one BT infinity (We both work from home and need those speeds), the same package as the originals home owners (my parents). This was promised and they agreed the sale. The day came, no engineer turned up and after US calling BT, we were told the port had been closed and capacity sold to someone else!!! Leaving us without Broadband infinity until 18th March. With no apology or admittance of fault. Then having to spend a total amount of 5 hours to get dialup set up for next week. |

By absolutely rubbish - current download speed 0.6 mb just not good enough for anything and spending £50 a month for nothing!! Total waste of money! |

We currently have work and home BB with BT. I can honestly say this is terrible service and the BB always stops working. We are always calling them and the phone call takes on average 1 hour waiting time. Do not use them terrible service. |

connection tests prove 95% efficiency from the stated maximum for Infinity Option 1, the cabinet is right outside my house with a short length of cable to the telephone and then on to the house, the connection has been stable for well over 3 months now and is totally secure through a corporate grade hardware firewall, well done BT, it is all as it says on the tin !!! |

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE is a complement for the most imcopetent and unorgansied company I have ever had the unfortunate chance to deal with. |

I pay an increased price for fibre which I don't actually receive as I'm too far from the exchange. I'm still supposed to receive 10-12mb but actually get closer to 6mb on a good day. I paid for an engineer to move my master socket only for the speed to lower further. When contacting BT they inform me that any engineer visit is likely to charge me the call out fee again. Customer service is unbearably tedious and repetitive, to the point where I can no longer be bothered phoning. I've bought my own 3rd party router which has helped with reliability. |

2 Years and we have had a fault every week. We have spent days off work waiting for engineers to come round, we have had our business disrupted constantly (self-employed) and lots thousands of pounds through downtime being unable to operate, we have spent the equivalent of what must now be days on the phone trying to raise fault notifications and complaints and we get nowhere. We get charged full price for a service which is operational 50% of the time. We get no compensation and ultimately, the issue never gets fixed. We are leaving. |

Disappointed is not right word for this, as a new customer I have been given 3 different activation dates to now and still theres a technical fault with my order they. I regret to have left my old provider and now stuck in this...un believable |

Dreadful service, diabolical customer service (if you can get through and have time to sit in queue for an hour), useless complaints service. Poor speed! Not fit for calling broadband. Never use this company!!! |

Worst company ever!! Had broadband and landline problems for over 11 months. My broadband drops out over 100x a day! Also when the broadband cuts off so does my landline. Every time I ring to get the issue resolved the " tech " department runs a "test " tells me I'm a liar and there is nothing wrong with it then puts the phone down on me... the only time you get to speak to someone in the same country as you is if you ring to cancel ironically... i have had numerous engineers out for nothing to be fixed and still paying FULL PRICE. One of the engineers had crossed over my landline so someone with plus net had my number and I had nothing.. still being charged for the phone calls they made!! I've made complaint after complaint. Somehow ended up with bt sports package I asked to cancel that. Never got done I was made out to be a liar over asking to cancel that too. Avoid at all costs. I'd rate 0 stars if I could the company is a disgrace |

All I can say is this company is disgusting being a customer service manager myself I have never expirienced such a poor level of service, they accidentally cut me off for over a week when I work from home so I was at a loss of earnings I had the phone put down on me 8 times!! I had one person become abusive and two make false promises that weren't even noted on my account. I was then told I would have an amount credited to my account due to loosing my service and instead the debited the amount Aswell as also charging me £20 extra on my bill for services with no notification which they are required to do by law. Then I get the news they are charging me £32 on charges because my bill wasn't paid on time due to the fact I was waiting on a call been listened to that never actually got sent to be listened to them one lovely chap said we will send debt collectors. Now I'm taking them to court to recover the funds I lost in earnings Aswell as compensation we will see who has the last laugh. |

The worst experience with bt broadband ever.We ordered this broadband 10 months ago and its the worst broadband ever.I called them up about the problem and they kept me on the phone for more than 3 hours transferring me from one department to another and the end result was that they never ended up no where, they just kept taking me to different departments.The worst customer service ever.Most of the people are uneducated.I am planning to leave before the contract and I'm even going to pay for the charges. I also have bt infinity.So my advice to anybody thinking of ordering bt infinity, don't order it because the broadband is rubbish and the customer service is absolutely horrendous. |

Signed up to BT broadband so that I could watch BT sport. What a mistake that was. First they got rid of my unlimited free evening calls even though their customer services told me on two occasions that would not change. Now they expect me to pay extra for the evenings call package. Got all the equipment on time and the service started on time and then the real problems began. The internet connection has a mind of its own. Slows down to 0.03Mbps every few hours. Resetting the home hub restores the speed most of the times but not always. After waiting on the phone for about 30 mins each time, technical help go through diagnostics then tell you to switch off all equipment and restart which resolves the issue for a few hours. How long can you keep resetting the router. Try and make a complaint and you just keep going round in circles. They don't want to help and have no idea what customer service is. Can't wait till the 18 months is over. So many better and cheaper deals out there. |

Absolutely awful broadband service, poor customer service. Havent had broadband for a week now and customer service was extremely unhelpful. This is becoming a normal occurrence and has happened a few times. I asked to speak to a manager and was told no manager available. Now investigating switching to another provider. |

The worst internet broadband provider ever compare to virgin and seethelight. BT with his customer services officers are the worst in the business. I am paying £44.96 for phone and infinity 76mb. My internet is always dropping and the speed is rubbish. BT it has sent me 7 internet hubs and open reach engineers to try and resolve the problem. Customer services officers in Dakata are very rude and unprofessional. Sent email to complaint to BT over a week ago, a lady called Pooja ring me from India asking me for my full name,address, telephone without introducing herself, I have to forced her name out of her mouth. BT has refused to compensate me for the inconvenience and time taking off work . I will never recommend BT to anyone. |

I ordered a BT infinity student deal for 9 months, at the time seemed perfect, short contract and quick speeds. However we had to wait 2 weeks for an engineer, this is normal, I would like to say that it is now 7 weeks after I orginally ordered their service yet I am STILL waiting for them to sort out our internet, and better still they have charged me £58 so far without providing anything! They have sent out 4 engineers who haven't been able to sort a supposedly simple process. Ive had 8 engineers booked, but 4 never showed up. I've spent countless hours on the phone to their terrible customer service who make false promises (I have actually heard unprompted promoises from them), half of them don't even know what their talking about! |

BT has to one of the worst run companys i have ever been with. The customer service is terrible and the speeds which they say you will get are a complete lie. |

Absolutely pathetic. The broadband here was never going to be quick but they way the village is treated is unbelievable! BT Infinity has been put through the village so that the town next to us could use it, but they didn't let us! Now all of a sudden my internet has dropped down to 130kbs. That's disgusting, and BT will do sweet F A about it. Disgusting company who genuinely don't care as long as they are making a profit. |

I signed because of 100 pounds prepaid MasterCard, which I have never received, when I tried to contact the customer service by email they said that they couldn't help and I need to call to the customer service. So I called, I waited 20 minutes to get to somebody just to be put on hold for another 10 minutes and then picked up by another member of staff that also put me on hold for 10 minutes. I waited 40 minutes to find out that my prepaid mastercard was not claimed and that they send me an email with instructions on how to claim it that I have never received. I am really dissatisfied with their attitude towards customers. Never again. |

The worst service I have ever been in contact with. Booked an installation, took a day off work and no-one turned up. BT told me the engineer came at 3.30pm but I was waiting all day, so basically a lie. I re-booked for another day and called BT twice to make sure they would come, they told me on both occasions that someone would definitely attend this afternoon. Called them a third time and BT said that the appointment was changed for the next day, without bloody telling me. I cancelled straight away, I am not paying some muggy company my hard earned cash even and this is even before the initial installations. |

5 times I've ordered broadband. 5 times they have messed up the order."it's a technical issue. The order has to be re progressed". About 10 hours on the phone. Still no broadband. They never phone you back and won't register a complaint. If your a masochist with a penchant for having the same conversation 20 times I would highly recommend. Otherwise you could achieve the same level of hair pulling frustration and emotional pain by clamping your testicles in a vice. |

Took 18 months and dozens of phone calls to get them to even connect us to broadband. Utterly useless in everyway. AVOID FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR OWN MENTAL HEALTH. |

If I could zero scores for satisfaction, customer service and reliability I would. BT are by far and away the worst company I've had the misfortune to deal with. The fibre optic broadband is fast when it works. I've been with them for a year now and had 2 month long (or more) sagas caused by them, and customer service is terrible. Currently going to ombudsman since I haven't had service for a month. |
