Didn’t get your problem resolved?
So, BT couldn’t resolve your problem... now what?
When it comes to your rights as a consumer, all goods and services must be fit for purpose, delivered as promised, and provided to a proper standard of workmanship.
If you have a complaint or you’re unhappy with your services, for any reason, you should be able to find any contact information on this page, BT’s site (www.BT.com), or on any correspondence you’ve received from them.
If you decide you’d like to cancel your broadband, you can do so whenever you want - providing you stick to the cancellation terms laid out in your contract. If you’re still within a minimum term, you could be hit with a heavy fee.
That said, there are some situations where you won’t be penalised.
To find out more about your consumer rights, including what to do if you think you’re being overcharged, you’re not getting the broadband speeds you were promised or broadband advertising has mislead you, read our consumer rights page.
