  • HalenVyas Halen (@HalenVyas) reported

    @joe_yer99 @bt_uk Leaving BT was the best thing we did. We went with EE - same company but might and day with customer service and less than half the price.

  • Hen_comer Henry (@Hen_comer) reported

    @bt_uk having really bad connection issues with my internet service, second day of the router flashing purple…. What happened to the connection guarantee???? Might have to look at other providers

  • Beela26726061 Beela (@Beela26726061) reported

    @bt_uk How about fixing my connection? Without internet since 2nd and had 5 fix dates delayed, been told to upgrade to Halo when I don't want to be stuck with BT for another 24months! Awful service! Won't provide a dongle or compensate for additional costs incurred

  • badass8177 Life As We Know It (@badass8177) reported

    I actually need to raise a complaint with @bt_uk I'm not interested in speaking to a 'customer advisor' because the job is NEVER DONE I want to talk to somebody higher than them

  • Beela26726061 Beela (@Beela26726061) reported

    @bt_uk Complained and was told they won't discuss further till I close my complaint! Existing customers treated like trash

  • Bill_63 Fish (@Bill_63) reported

    @bt_uk I want you to know that I stopped my DD for BT Sport and a BT Openworld email to cancel them. I tried to email you to tell you but you - a communications company - have no email address! You send me emails but they're 'no reply' which is crazy. I'm not calling you.

  • shaneduds shaneduds (@shaneduds) reported

    @bt_uk I want my experience with bt to be positive too, but 2 failed orders because "openreach didnt make a commitment" sounds like a you problem, i entered my details, paid on my end, waited the weeks, now waiting longer because you people cant use your heads lmao

  • Prof_Plumtree Professor Plumtree (@Prof_Plumtree) reported

    @WeAreWST @CazooUK BTSport and Eurosport to merge. good or bad for snooker fans?

  • Nod641 Nod64 (@Nod641) reported

    @joe_yer99 @bt_uk They're shite. Ditched them years ago and would never go back.

  • shaneduds shaneduds (@shaneduds) reported

    @bt_uk Help? I called customer service for help and i was told sorry like 173782 times, cant imagine there would be much help to begin with smh

  • joe_yer99 Joe Fae Glesga (@joe_yer99) reported

    @Nod641 @bt_uk Not really had a problem up until now. Its how companies deal with the problem that makes me decide to leave or not.

  • MarkGra08400134 Mark Gray (@MarkGra08400134) reported

    @bt_uk A qube engineer was due between 4pm-6pm. I called your help and was put on hold for 10 mins then the call was cancelled!

  • qcumbor QCumbor 🇬🇧 (@qcumbor) reported

    @jlil10146 @denkmit Ive just had to resign with awful Virgin tv just so i can access awful BTSport so i can watch MotoGP. Many sports have lost their soul turning their backs on their history & traditions. Motorbikes & cycling are still in touch but are creeping ever closer toward sterile F1

  • DenisDraia Denis (@DenisDraia) reported

    @SkySportsPL and @btsport are worst than the superleague and you cannot change my mind.

  • JamesAithie James Aithie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@JamesAithie) reported

    @joe_yer99 @bt_uk The irony of their bio: We connect for good. We're here to help! "Can you connect me?" "No." "I thought you were here to help!" "No."

  • Prof_Plumtree Professor Plumtree (@Prof_Plumtree) reported

    @eurosport so eurosport, will your merger with btsport be good or bad for snooker viewers?

  • M9MattandH M9 (@M9MattandH) reported

    @bt_uk Is BT down in the London area. I’ve got orange lights and have tried restarting.

  • ____kaza Gon (@____kaza) reported

    @bt_uk Why is my internet so slow

  • ShegoXa Sxa (@ShegoXa) reported

    @bt_uk As stated the WiFi randomly going off, as for devices affected.. my toaster..maybe all the ones that require WiFi??? Lord help me

  • ShegoXa Sxa (@ShegoXa) reported

    @bt_uk If you can somehow prevent my WiFi from randomly going down ? Then sure

  • badass8177 Life As We Know It (@badass8177) reported

    @bt_uk I'm not interested in speaking to a customer advisor ...I'm irritated by the fact that from 2 months ago I've had ongoing issues ...I want to raise my complaint with somebody higher than a customer advisor

  • congacraig Craig Wakley (@congacraig) reported

    Does anyone else have any issues watching @BritBox_UK through their @bt_uk TV? Mine is so temperamental, won't load or play a lot of the time

  • ripinmypants Ryan Davies (@ripinmypants) reported

    @bt_uk Pointless you have Ben useless with my issues so far

  • annabelxcorin Annabel (@annabelxcorin) reported

    @bt_uk I have had nothing but problems with your service since the beginning! This is no where near good enough!

  • ShegoXa Sxa (@ShegoXa) reported

    @bt_uk Why are you so ****….?

  • lyndyloobyloo scooby 🦊 (@lyndyloobyloo) reported

    @bt_uk How on earth does it take 59 minutes to report an undelivered SIM card??? Omg been speaking for all this time now transferred again!! 😡 getting ready to cancel, absolute joke

  • theravenousbong Kuntal (@theravenousbong) reported

    Have needed frequent hub restarts of late, and now an outage out of nowhere. Got informed it might be back up on Tuesday - that's five days to recover. How's that acceptable @bt_uk ?

  • Beela26726061 Beela (@Beela26726061) reported

    @bt_uk BT not to be trusted. Still without internet/landline. Messaged BT on 4th and no response. Customers should get a free upgrade or a dongle if it's taking this long. Awful seevice

  • joe_yer99 Joe Fae Glesga (@joe_yer99) reported

    @HalenVyas @bt_uk I've had zero problems with BT up until this point. Its things like this that makes me leave. And I am.

  • PakesBakesCakes PakesBakesCakes (@PakesBakesCakes) reported

    @bt_uk hi, can you help please. My mum reported a landline fault yesterday, engineer was booked, then BT cancelled this morning because network fault but with no information on when to expect resolution and no contact details. Status checker says fix expected Thurs next week??!
