Is this the customer service quality that BT reall...

Hi
I started out with a reletively simple problem to solve: I wanted to set a bookmark in my browser to enable me to get to BT Mail without having to go throught the laborious MyBT signin/ Email link combination.
So, I start out with the BT Help link after logging in to MyBT. Simple eh! NO!  I get a web form asking for my BT email address (to distinguish between Yahoo and BT I suppose) - so I enter my valid and perfectly working BT email address (ending in @btinternet.com) and this now gives me a page telling me that they don't recognise my email address!  Bear in mind, I do and can access my email via an email client (Thunderbird) and via the MyBT Email link - all working perfectly.
On the page telling me that my email address isn't recognised, it provides a box spouting about BT Tech Experts and their telephone number - easy eh! NO! The telephone number only gets a response saying the number is no longer in use and giving another telephone number (which leads to BT Help OK, but NOT the BT Tech Experts), and the person there really can't help me with my initial problem anyway.
All of this, then, I find that BT Tech Experts is a charged for service which I do not have a subscription for anyway - the part where I was directed to them SHOULD HAVE SAID I need a subscription for the service (it didn't matter anyway as the Tech Experts telephone number didn't work)
What a stupid amatuerish process from BT!
I went through all of the above with the very polite BT Help person on the phone number I ended up on, and although he says that the issues will be pursued and from past experience with BT, I am very dubious about anything being done about it.
I will post another message here about my original question (bookmarking BT Email)

Hi, I cant beleive the customer service that BT give...NONE...I have been trying since last July to sort out a faulty phone line, my Bt,com email that I have had and used for couple of years btinternet.com.  My email has been compromised twice, I am on Yahoo.co.ireland.uk, which I had years ago!!!!I have changed password 10 times security question about 5 times and still I am on an old Yahoo site that I left years ago... When I say that I am paying for btinternet and have been for couple of years, that my email was on bt,com, even though as you say, a palava ...I worry now about using my email, I dont trust it, and all thay say is, its Yahoo's fault, and its all changing over, (I changed to BT.Com with ID etc.,) WHY do I have to put up with YAHOO email, with messenger!!! which I dont trust???? WHY has it using YAHOO? Im not paying for that...They say, use another email account, such as Hotmail..!!!??? WHAT?  Well email is free (apparently) with broadband internet, from BT, so I dont have to use it...I have all my contacts, doctors, council etc on there,...Am I going mad. I feel like I am...I only get 2.1mb since the big BT change over,, I pay £36.00 a month for phone line and broadband plus all the add ons they put on when they incresed there prices...Cant be right can it?
It took months to get engineer to come and fix phone line, wire was loose and the wiring was very old...twice I had text from someone saying it would take 3/7 days to fix, I didnt see anyone but got a text saying "phone line fixed" well it wasnt...another appointment, didnt see anyone, only a text saying phone line fixed...Had appointment for engineer to come to my home, was told I could be charged £148 something pounds!!!!!! Guess what, he never turned up....
Eventually phone went completely dead, engineer came, OH YES, wiring in BT box had come loose, because it was such an old box!!! GGGGRRRRRRR All this time I had problems with my Broadband connection as well, after months again, they (I found out) that my Hub was broken and OLD HUB 2...They sent me hub 3 fixed phone line, after 7 months...
I cant cancel my disgusting package, I cant use my email...and I CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!!!!!!
BT IS DISGUSTING.
Phwoar, sorry about rant

  • Is the customer service really that bad? (possible future customer)

    I'm currently with Brighthouse and I'm looking to switch to a bundle of cable/internet/phone.  Not just here but all across the internet I've read about Verizon's horrible and unprofessional customer service.  Is it bad enough where I should reconsider switching over?  I have Verizon Wireless for my cell phone and haven't had too many issues with them.  If the CS is that bad, does the equipment and internet speed make up for it?
    If it is that bad I would appreciate someone letting me know and saving me the money and hassle.
    Thanks for your help.
    Solved!

  • How do I reach the customer service rep that I spoke with

    I recently had a problem with my AT&T bill.  The rep that I spoke with, Latrice Iiland was fantastic. How can I reach here to discuss follow-up? Thanks!

    E61381665 I hope that you are a corporate customer relations person as I cannot explain the total lack of communication/organization/problem understanding-solving of your outsourced phone support staff, which I have experienced to date.  I have spent over 5 hours in phone conversations wihout ever being able to escalate the probelm to a supervisor/manager/customer service person.  It has been like listening to a broken record over and over.   And the fact that there is no customer service phone number in 2015 is a serious concern for an upscale consumer market. My Vaio computer sustained water damage in mid June.  It took 4 days to get an authorization to get a repair.  It is now over a month at Best Buy, and I keep getting updates from Geek Squad.  They have ordered more parts six (6) times now and cannot complete the repair.  At what point will I simply get a replacement/refurb/store credit/refund?  I am a professional consultant and make a living with a laptop while traveling.  A month is unacceptable to wait for a repair when I paid a 20% premium on my purchase at a Sony Store to insure continuity of service.  Please help. Steve Klein

  • I am a customer Verizon customer of over ten years...I am notgettingany assistance from the customer service department. Since September I am being charged for a Samsung phone that I returned based on the process that verizon has set.return the defective

    turn my phone to send Verizon wireless and those instead of the stuff found. I'm not in charge $600 for the for the phone. I'll talk to multiple customer service reps and nothing has really been done about anything other then we'll keep looking or so for stretching it out. since September I've been dealing with thison a month-to-month basis they cut my services they reinstate me and tell me that they're going to knock off the reconnection charge as I have four lines. Unfortunately my main reason for this phone is my work emails which I need to do because I do work and to contact my mother who is 85 years old and I'm the sole caregiver. I don't know what else to do. I have spoken to a supervisor  by the name of William or Will oats in that he said he was going to look into it and was going to help me out. Never heard from him again- just original email to quiet me down. I've been sending him emails just about every day trying to make sure that I get my message across. Seems like Verizon Wireless really doesn't care about the long-term customers. Looking forward to hearing from someone that can help me with my plight.process is faulty for returns. You don't accept them in the stores because as one customer service rep stated you can't get your own employees to send the devices back. Now the responsibilities is on the customer the paying customer the one that keeps you alive. And it's not fair that I there's no way I can prove that I put it in the mailbox. So what are my next stepswhat is it that I need to do to clear up this charge of $600. It's about economy as $600 to me at this very point it's a lot of money. I've been your customer for 10 years I've got four lines I've given will my mothers telephone number home number..number but now she's got to sit by the phone to make sure that she picks up all the calls. And nobody can hear what I have to sayand nobody has been able throughout all these months and check your notes check your notes to see how many times I've called how many time you cut my services how many times you reinstated me and how many times that I spent an hour and a half to two hours on the phone going through this process. I think the stress level is to know thqt I did exactly what you asked...I am now paying the price for your faulty process I'm all I'm asking is review my account tell me what I did wrong I follow your procedure so I don't understand....to top it off...my wife hasa per diem job...and she too is affected by loosing out on work leads...
    as you can see, the cel is no longer a commodity. It's a way of life.
    PLease se call me at -----just remembered....I don't have a service line.

    I have a similar problem with my fathers service, it wasns't $600 but what is rightfully your money, you deserve it back, I wrote this complaint on the Consumer Affairs website:
    In August 2014, my son went to Target to get a new cell phone and was told his Unlimited Data would still be on his plan (he shared a line on his grandfathers account). Well it turned out that Target messed it up and my son immediately called Verizon to get it taken care of but they were not able to do anything about the lost unlimited data but the customer service rep did try to find the best offer for him. In the mean time Verizon was suppose to send him a new cell phone, they never sent it and he was without a phone so he took his business to another cell provider. Verizon DID charge him for the new service that they had spoke about. So when the new bill (Sept) came, the service he never used was on the bill and when we called to inquire about it we spoke to a Judy and told us we would be receiving a credit of the amount that was paid. Well, we got the next months bill (Oct) and still no credit, so called them again and spoke to a Nadine ** . She looked into the account and saw the amount that was paid and said she would submit it again for a credit and she would get back to me in 2 days, no call back.
    The next bill (Nov) came and no credit again, call again but didn't get the girls name and she put me on hold to look over the previous conversations. She said she sees in the records about the credit and said it takes a while to get it thru the supervisor authorization and she would put it in as a "rush priority". On Dec. 5th my dad's cell was turned off, so I call yet again to Verizon, and explain the whole story to them again. This girl explained to me that the request was not put in correctly and that she would submit it right this time, they even turned the cell back on for him.
    So here we are today, Dec. 30, 2014, I get the bill...NO CREDIT, call up and get a gentleman in billing, explain this whole thing again and he transferred me over to customer service where I spoke to a Jordan and yet again told him the story. By this time I was fuming, 3 almost 4 months of calling for this credit and he looks into the account and tells me there is nothing that states there is a credit so all the other customer service reps see it but now it is gone. He said he can only issue me a $25 credit to the bill, not even close to what the bill was that I paid. At this point I wanted to speak to a Supervisor and even that was a problem.
    He did call me back after my phone died. He put me on hold again to speak to a supervisor himself and said that he can only offer me $100 credit for all my troubles for the past few months. I took the $100 credit because Jordan said if I spoke to the supervisor, the $100 credit might not be an offer anymore so it was either take it or leave it. Now where I stand, they get away with NOT giving the credit due to customers. I am done with Verizon.
    today being March 12, 2015, he FINALLY got the said $100 credit...but because of their delay, he service was shut off and I refuse to pay the reconnection fee due to their neglect of a customer of over ten years. My father's service will NO longer be with a place that has NO VALUE in customer service....Verizon robs their customers anyway they can.

    Hi joej49728017,
    I am so sorry for the inconvenience caused. However this is just because Adobe Acrobat 7.0 is an outdated version & the now the activation server for it does not exist.
    Please refer to the following KB doc.  Error: "Activation Server Unavailable" | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
    The above link will help you to  install a special version that does not require activation.
    In case you further need any help, please let us know. We will be more than happy to help you.

  • New podcast app says unable to authorize, please contact customer service, is that apple or the podcast provider?

    podcast app says unable to authorize your account, please contact customer service, is that apple or podcast provider?

    In my case, it is a response from ITUNES.  I don't have any problems downloading from the site, or accessing the site from any of my devices.  But once I get episodes into ITUNES and try to synch, either by USB or WIFI, the Apple devices refuse to play them.  My IPOD Touch shows "no unplayed episodes", and my IPAD is the one that shows the warning "Unable to authorize".  From both devices, I can manually access the website and download the podcasts as MP3's and play them one at a time, but they never show up in my Podcast library on ITUNES.

  • I can't believe the customer service

    I was with at&t for years and I left because I thought it would be cheaper through verizon. I was soooo wrong and if I had known that I would converse with someone like Kenya a manager from verizon finance is extremely rude.I tried to talk with her and she plowed over me like what I was saying was of no value to her. I have been in customer service for 10 years plus although I am a customer I know how I have to maintain professionalism and being pleasant with my customers. If I would have known this was the kind of business that they put forward I would have stayed with at&t. I am going to look into it when my contract is up this with verizon. Although at the end of the day I spoke with diane from customer service who was a breath of fresh air after speaking to Kenya who was extremely RUDE and I pitty the next person who has to speak with that PMS queen on a power trip.....

    Krystal78, I'm very sorry to hear that you received rude customer service from one of our financial service managers. I certainly don't want you to feel this type of behavior is at all acceptable. We strive to have excellent customer service so that our customers know they are appreciated. I'm glad you were able to receive excellent service from Diane the next day, and this is the type of customer service you should expect from Verizon Wireless. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.

  • The customer service representative got mad at me!

    I purchased the DSL internet on Friday and I wanted to set up a date for modem installation. I called the credit verification center and got transferred to the customer service. I told them what I wanted to do. I am generally a very nice person and I treat people nicely. This one guy answers the phone and immediately I can sense the rudeness in his voice. I didn't mind. I just wanted to set up a date for my installation. He told me to stay on the line. I did. But suddenly the phone got transferred again! To the credit verification center. Then I called the customer service again and the same gentleman answered my phone. Well, at first he didn't know it was me but after I tell him my information, he got frustrated with me and actually got mad at me! I was very surprised. Is this what verizon hires people to take care of their customers? I am actually going to cancel my purchase and I am going to go with a different company.

    Hi,

    The EventLog service reported that the Security event log on computer '<Domain Controller Computer>' is corrupt. The Windows Event Log Provider will attempt to recover by re-opening log.
    I'll appreciate any suggestion in order to solve this issue.

    I guess this issue is caused by event ID 4661 is corrupted in security event log.
    Please check if you have many 4661 events in security event log and XML view cannot be viewed.
    Running the below command on DC will disable the auditing of the SAM Object access. This should stop the Event ID 4661 from being logged which should stop the Alert regarding corrupt Event log:
