Bt you need to get your customer service and billi...

HI all just to let you know I have been with bt ( all 3 packages vision, broadband option 3 and telephone + the £5 each month free calls )
Until they tried to put all of the bills together all was fine I got all bills and went online to pay instant with card and or part direct debit for 2 of the 3 accounts. ) all no problems.
UNTIL!!!!!!
the change over back in July 2010.
After a 1.5 hours repetitive conversation with customer service ( and yes they where english speaking ) we are astill no where.
they now say that my bt broadband has a different account and has been sent to my landlord ( as he had to call them 3 yrs ago to get a line put in to my rent place)
any way the only problem is my broadband bill. I have not received any bill paper or email from July 2010 at ALL!!
I still get the bills for vision and telephone all in my name and gets paid direct debit I have no problems with those 2 its the broadband bill
Only to find last night my landlord came round irate that bt had cut him off because my broadband bill was not paid and he said its not his its mine ( this was lets say a slight confrontation with me and landlord) BT muck up again !!!!
Next I call today to speak to Customer service only for them to keep repeating that there is nothing they can do its in the landlords name.
I say I'm not bothered I just want to know why I was getting all bills and paying for them ON TIME until July 2010.
They then say they need to change the account holder to my name and I say but your sending me online email bill and paper billing for my vision and telephone why have you stopped the broad band.
Any way sorry for long story but I am seriously thinking of enough is enough now what with the first 18 months broad band connection problems ( exchange end had to re port 3 times their end) and 4 engineers. to get it sorted to now when BT change all account into one for this to happen.
LISTEN BT  ITs now become a personal confrontational matter ( my landlord coming round)
ITS your problem your end GET it sorted.
If my only advice to anyone with BT
1GET account in your name same address if possible.
2. make sure BT know your mobile, and email addresses. double check each year when you renew contracts
3. WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN , name, time date who spoke to.
HERE COMES BIG COMPLAINTS LOOK OUT BT
also sent email to adam lee yesterday about this whole thing. Adam lee was who my landlord spoke to about the whole thing and so I think he deducted the wrong billing of my broadband to his account.
his email is  ******* for any one else.
UPDATE:
when I check my online statements it shows all 3 accounts yet BT customer service say my broadband account has been disconnected??  DUHHHH im using it now !!
and funny thing is  how can you pay a bill if the broadband says your bill is uptodate your next bill is due 16th October 2010 ( YES 2010 ..LOL)

Hi Hamish72
Thanks for comments
I totally agree as I run my own facebook custom fanpage design and webhosting so I know how customers what to be treated Key 1 I learnt is always listen and repeat back their question. and 2 solve the problem. 3 revert back to no: 1
UPDATE: just spoke to another customer service person called KAREN. Now this is not a name and shame in fact I have include her name as she sorted this all out in 30 mins totally understood and has 75% solved problem while on the phone. The other 25% is down to waiting to activation of a move over of the error of bt putting my broadband account under my landlords account ( different address ). Why the other CS couldn't do this I don't know.
any way will let you all know how it goes.

    COMPLAINT!! Customer Service and Billing!
    Message was edited by: Admin Moderator

    Wow so sorry to hear of your issues with customer service.
    I have had the same run around with Verizon wireless customer service.
    Depending on who you talk to you get a different answer every time.
    How can you make changes to your account when you never know what the "actual" bill will be ?
    Have asked to speak to a supervisor and was denied, that is not right.
    You could try contacting the BBB maybe they can help you out ( may need them also )

  • How can I file a complaint about customer service and billing

    I Changed from AT&T as they didn't offer service where I now reside and ever since March of 2014 it takes about two to three calls to get my billing corrected. And then they have me on the phone for about two hours about the same issue. They have corrected my bill a fee times for their fault. Now I have come to the end of a long battle only to find out they want to charge me a disconnection fee that shouldn't have even taken place.  I sent back a phone before the 24 or 15 days that one has to send it back. A phone that was never used and that every month they seemed to remove those charges. Now after 6 months they finally said that I have to pay the disconnection fee. I am so disgusted with customer service as they always make it seem that there is no one else to speak to. This issue should have been resolved months ago and now they are trying to charge me a fee. When their Texas office received the phone I nt back and didnt put on the account when they received it. Yet every month they seem to resolve the issue and say sorry. I spoke to a supervisor who said I have reviewed your account inn two minutes and decided that he wasn't able to do anything with my account and that charge was valid but prior to this everyone would remove the charge and apologize for e inconvenience, now they just want me to pay the disconnection fee we'll it is not happening and I would like to speak to someone about this. I emailed John bianchi to see if they could help me get this corrected. My biggest frustration that I have not had with AT&T before was so many calls for something so simple and not be able to get answers or them just make it seem as they are always right. My bill since I started has not been consistent and that is frustrating. It is has become a joke in a my family about what my bill will be this month. I have a total of five lines with Verizon and if the opportunity came to go back to a different carrier I wouldn't hesitate to change over.

  • "You need to restart your computer" over and over

    So I just got a Powerbook G4 1.5GHz, and when I ran software updates, it installed a whole lot of things (like new iTunes, Mac OS X 10.4.4 I think). Now, when I start up my computer, it says, "You must restart your computer." So I do. Now, after 30+ restarts, I'm freakin' out... I feel like Sisyphus... any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Powerbook G4 15" 1.5GHz   Mac OS X (10.4)   Brand new, factory except for software updates

    OK, this is a kernel panic. It simply means that, at the point the message is appearing, the computers core (kernel) is receiving instructions it can't understand.
    I would suggest that you first start up the computer while holding command-S. When the text stops scrolling, enter this command:
    fsck -yf
    Repeat it until the command's final message indicates a lack of problems.
    Then type "reboot", and see what happens.
    EDIT: I see that Allan has posted a link to The X Lab. This is a great resource, but I'm leaving my post as a quick start.

    Anyway to update the people of my issue here's how it shook down ultimately.  After 7 days of begging and pleading with your company for someone to support the product I called back the retailer that I purchased the key from and asked them what to do.  They told me that they would work through the technical issue with me if they could and if not refund me the purchase price because they STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS.  Funny concept, huh?  When the rep was helping me he looked through your forums and was STUNNED at how many people needed help with issues and your staff and employees were nowhere to be found.  We had a good chuckle over the ineptitude and heartless attitude it would take to screw that many people at once.  They tried to help me, even though it was in NO WAY their responsibility to do so.  We could not resolve the issue so they are issuing me a refund for your companies refusal to stand behind it's product, and leaving it's customers out in the cold with ZERO support.  This was without question the worst experience I have ever had with any company, period. And I am forced to get my internet from Time Warner if that gives you any perspective. The lack of support Adobe offers people is borderline criminal.  For those of you that the products work immediately  they could could probably care less.  But for the THOUSANDS on the forums currently that Adobe is leaving out in the cold and letting it's "community" deal with Adobe's problems, I wish you the best of luck.  5 different threads, 7 days of my life, multiple attempts to contact via phone and online chat only to be told "my question doesn't qualify for support". I have a degree in web development and I build custom Pc's on the side for fun, so I would hate to see how someone who isn't "tech savvy" would deal with this company.  God forbid. That was my experience, I truly hope that the thousands out there right now having issues with this software don''t have to go though what I did.   To the few generous members of Adobe's community I would like to graciously thank you again for attempting to help me.  To Adobe, I truly wanted to use your product.  I REALLY did.  Your company and it's policy made it impossible to do that.  I gotta say, from the bottom of my heart, this was the most horrific experience I have ever had with a company bar none.  You desperately need to reavaluate your customer service and support option.  You trade on the stock market for gods sake and you just let people toil  in your forums with persistent issues.   It really is disgraceful.

  • Adobe customer service and technical assistance

    Adobe no longer has the standards it use to have. Only a couple of years ago I was able to get excellent customer service and technical assistance. Now representatives do not speak or write in understandable English and the chat service does not work properly. I am not against outsourcing in principle, but one would expect at least some basic training in customer service. It is unethical for a company not to offer adequate assistance to a customer who has paid over $500 for one of their buggy products.

    I had to call Adobe Customer Service over the summer a few times in
    connection with software activation after a lightning strike forced me
    to replace some hardware. Aside from the fact that I had to do it all,
    it was fairly painless, and each call (there were three) took less than
    15 minutes with almost no time on hold.
    Probably helped that I called at midnight here, 9 a.m. (I think) in
    Bangalore.

  • Your Customer Service Needs Fixed

    Your employees lie, don't keep their word, and make false accusations. You make customers wait hours and drive around for hours to fix YOUR MISTAKES. This is ridiculous.
    Here is my story:
    I first purchased an item from Best Buy store. I returned it as defective (which it was.) I checked the store before going in to see if more would be in stock. They said it was, but the store not only did not have it but gave me the wrong product. I was told to go to another city to find the right product. I called in again and found out that city didn't even have it. They sent me a replacement at a discount to resolve the issue, but it was also defective. I wished to try a different brand but wanted to be sure I could do so with the same discounted rate. I called in and explained the situation. Was told by ANDREW {Removed per Forum Guidelines} that they couldn't discount a "marketplace" item, but they could do a gift card for the amount if I returned my items and called back. He promised to write it in the notes and I checked twice to be sure that I could get the discount on their marketplace items. When I called back the customer service rep accused me of lying about my conversation with {Removed per Forum Guidelines} as {Removed per Forum Guidelines} had not put anything in the notes and had been lying about their ability to do a gift card. I spoke to his supervisor who then transfered me to RYAN in another department. RYAN offered my $10 off my $320 purchase to help, which I said was not enough as originally I got 50% off. His manager then offered $35. At that point I attempted to explain why this was unacceptable and mid-sentence he transfered me to Drew. Drew then told me he could offer me a $100 gift card but to get the full amount we were originally given, he needed his supervisor's permission. Drew promised to ask and call back in a few minutes. He never did. When I called back he next day, he said after talking to his supervisor he could now only give us a $40 giftcard. I asked to speak to the supervisor to understand this. I was transfered to Eddy who then patronized me as he re-explained marketplace to me and how they couldn't affect prices. (something I already understood from my hours of being told this and being either lied to or accused of lying about it.)  He also said he wouldn't offer more than the rude manager who transferred me mid-sentence. At this point it wasn't about the discount we got. It is about making it right for all my time you've wasted, not to mention gas money and to make right the HORRIBLE treatment I was given. This is not "FEEDBACK" this is wrong what you are doing. 
    I am tired of being lied to. I am tired of being patronized and accused of lying. I'm tired of waiting on the phone to fix YOUR customer service lies and problems.
    You need to fix your system. Your employees need to keep their word. You need to make this right.

    Just to make certain, you inserted the original installation disk and started the MBP holding down the C key?  Did the Optical drive reject the disk or did it just spin?  If the former, the lens in the drive may be dirty and needs to be cleaned.  If the latter, you will have to take it to an Apple repair facility.
    Ciao.

  • I keep getting 'you need to reboot your mac'

    I keep getting 'you need to reboot your mac' with a grey-out background. The message is in several languages. Is this a virus of some sort? It's been years since I have worked on a Mac and I picked up this Mac OS X Tiger 10.4 system. Lately I have been getting this notice (takes up the whole screen) stating I need to re-boot.
    I did recently try installing and uninstalling various versions of the flash plugin, but that is the only change I have made to the system.
    Any clues?
    Thanks.

    It's a kernel panic, not a virus. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on diagnosing kernel panics.

  • IMac G4 Freezes - Get message - You need to restart your computer.

    I just posted this question in the G5 forum, I think. The Mac I am using is a G4 - the round 'lamp base' model' - so I will repost the question here.
    My iMac freezes without notice, a dark screen comes over the monitor and the message "you need to restart your computer" appears.
    This happens randomly and I have no idea what causes this. I thought perhaps it was just a loose power cord, as the cord does seem quite loose.
    However, it happens after the machine has been running for some time. Before I have a chance to save my work, the computer tells me it has to shut down. It's not a consistent thing, so it's hard to know if it's the cord or not.
    This also happened half way through watching a DVD. Nothing was touched or moved, so it wouldn't appear that this is being caused by a loose cord.
    Can anyone shed some light on this problem? (I'm running Tiger on this machine with 700+ megs of RAM plus am using a Mac keyboard. Airport is installed but not in use.
    I ran a Hardware Test on it and everything passed. I also completely reloaded all the software, erased the hard drive and did a complete reinstall, and the problem persists. It really is a nuisance and I have no idea what else to try.

    Hi AnnieGrace, 
    Sorry to hear of your woes. You are suffering from Kernel Panics (link) which could be caused by defective RAM, dodgy USB drivers or a software corruption etc etc.
    I would advise disconnecting all external devices (except an Apple mouse and keyboard), removing any 3rd party RAM you've installed and the Airport card if you have one.
    The best thing to do then is work though Dr Smoke's Kernel Panic Resolution Guide (link).
    Do let us know how you get on. When I suffered them it was down to cheap RAM; other AD users have reported that old keyboards caused their problem.
    regards

  • If you need to get contacts off your phone... here is a way to do it

    Hi all,
    I had a user who lost their address book on their mac. Luckily their contacts were on his phone, but when he went to sync, it erase them.
    However, that being said... we still needed to get the info off and couldn't figure out how to move them over. Itunes wasn't helping...
    Ecamm makes a product that does it. Best 20.00 bucks I have spent.
    http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/
    Found his data, and allowed me to save it off and he is one happy camper.
    So... if you are having problems getting your data... try this
    John Gibson

    With ATT here in US, if you go to ATT Store, and ask they will give you a new micro-SIM card with your old #, so you will be happy.
    The SIM card you have now however, is very easy to cut down to exact size with sharp scissors. If you screw up then just see your Carrier for a new Micro-SIM with your #.

    This is on the grey screen with the multi lingual "you need to restart your computer message"
    Holding shift on startup bypasses the screen and allows me to eject the disk and boot in safe mode or whatever it's called but the bar down the bottom fills up and I'm just left with the rotating bars and the apple logo.
    I have tried a few different suggestions I have found on other threads about holding a certain key to start in safe mode or something to that effect but nothing has worked.
    I have inserted the OSX install dvd that came with the computer and restarted but that did nothing and now I cannot eject it.
    I have backed up a lot of the stuff on there but it will be a huuuuuge inconvenience if I lose the data on this thing.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Stephen

    This is called a "kernel panic" (the multi-lingual restart screen). Solving them can be tricky. From the sounds of it, you can probably rule out hardware, but you probably have pretty severe system damage, probably caused by bad hard drive damage. But without more information, it's hard to say. Try looking over [the X Lab FAQ on resolving kernel panics|http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html].

  • Keep getting message - You need to restart your computer - iMac freezes

    My iMac freezes without notice, a dark screen comes over the monitor and the message "you need to restart your computer" appears.
    This happens randomly and I have no idea what causes this. I thought perhaps it was just a loose power cord, as the cord does seem quite loose.
    However, it happens after the machine has been running for some time. Before I have a chance to save my work, the computer tells me it has to shut down. It's not a consistent thing, so it's hard to know if it's the cord or not.
    This also happened half way through watching a DVD. Nothing was touched or moved, so it wouldn't appear that this is being caused by a loose cord.
    Can anyone shed some light on this problem? (I'm running Tiger on this machine with 700+ megs of RAM plus am using a Mac keyboard. Airport is installed but not in use.

    Hi there,
    I would first make sure your Mac is or isn't on any list contained here: http://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/imac.html - you may in fact have a faulty power supply which is covered by repair extension through Apple.
