Question and Answer

Have a question regarding your iPhone email setup or think you can help other BT Internet users out? Please comment below!

  • I've got the same problem as this previous person: I had to delete and reinstall my email account. I reloaded my account and when I went into settings/password& accounts my email does not show the ability to turn on contacts or calendars or notes or reminders. I have lost most of my contacts on my phone (I also have an iCloud email account and the contacts on my phone are picking up contacts from iCloud) the vast majority of all my contacts have disappeared, presumably because my Btinternet.com account is not allowing contacts onto my phone or tablet. Help please.
