Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JulesMirror Julian Hamilton (@JulesMirror) reported

    Any chance @btsport can mute McManaman on the commentating…he’s awful. How on earth did he ever get a job doing that? 👎👎👎

  • TheSillyRob Robert (@TheSillyRob) reported

    Only thing letting BT down is the commentary team. #btsport

  • kombatkryme Stewart Hodgins (@kombatkryme) reported

    Commentary is appalling this afternoon 'Nunez started slow but seems to have come to life now' the guy been on the pitch 15 mins as a second half sub, had 3 chances and scored one 🤔🤔🙄 #FULLIV #btsport #fulhamvsliverpool

  • mcfc9320group Andy Savage (@mcfc9320group) reported

    @btsport I thought @SkySportsPL commentary was bad but you have taken it to a whole new level today. oh an since when has Darwin Nunez been called Darwin Nuniez ? unless i am mistaken?

  • DaveMorg92 Dave Morgan (@DaveMorg92) reported

    @btsport Fancy explaining the buffering and constant interpretation when watching on the app? Superfast fibre with no other devices connected! It's just taken 7 minutes to watch 90 seconds of a match. Explanation please before I cancel all subscriptions with you.

  • sexyjonanderson Jon Anderson (@sexyjonanderson) reported

    @btsportfootball @btsport Useless! looks like another season of glitchy HD and 4k football. Sick of this garbage. The only channel with this problem. Constantly crashes! Sort it out @btsport 🤬

  • Emma58832129 Emma B (@Emma58832129) reported

    @btsport sort it out. Glitching and stuttering, quality is terrible and for the price paid. Disgrace🤬

  • J13CBV TeamBarclay (@J13CBV) reported

    @premierleague Great first half for @FulhamFC - Great no9 goal from #mitrovic #FULLIV #btsport Really poor defending from Trent. No clue where he was.

  • kieraandixon Kieran Dixon (@kieraandixon) reported

    Jenas AND McManaman on commentary on Fulham vs Liverpool. Cheers @btsport 👍🏼 couldn’t have picked two worst commentators. #FULLIV

  • Original_GSP Gareth 💙 (@Original_GSP) reported

    The constant buffering of the absolutely shite @btsport app is not making this crap from #lfc any more enjoyable to watch.

  • Mighty129 M Vadher (@Mighty129) reported

    @btsport It was an interesting game of football. The away side probably should have got 3 points however to be a goal down at not only 1 but 2 stages during the game and to level it up both times was cool. I guess 1 point each was a fair result because of chances created. #FULLIV

  • Rob_CoolmanLFC Robert Coolman (@Rob_CoolmanLFC) reported

    Im paying for @btsport to listen to Steve McManaman & Jenas on commentary, is that the best you can get?? BT have the worst pundits man!!

  • Sjay942 Sjay94 (@Sjay942) reported

    @JohnAtkinPR @btsport I'm getting the same issue for the Liverpool match

  • pomhead Atomic Pom (@pomhead) reported

    @motherlode182 @btsport Mate the app is terrible keeps freezing shocking.. I’ve checked all my devices and internet is spot on. Their app is shite!

  • JohnAtkinPR John Atkin (@JohnAtkinPR) reported

    @btsport subscribed to your app for the first time. It's absolute garbage, constant buffering even on superfast broadband - how do I get a refund?

  • Baahossman Anthony Fletcher (@Baahossman) reported

    @btsport it is very poor that we can't use your app whilst abroad but @SkySports works a treat! Sort your shut out.

  • motherlode182 🌱 ☭ (@motherlode182) reported

    @pomhead @btsport Same here!! It's never been this bad before so I'm hoping it's just a bad day

  • AndrewHaynes72 Andrew Haynes (@AndrewHaynes72) reported

    @btsport your streaming service is absolutely rubbish, why am I bothering paying for this????? Don't have a problem with NowTV so don't blame my Internet!

  • almurton 🦧 Murtøn (@almurton) reported

    @btsport why is the picture quality so poor? I'm using the app and the screen is so dark that it's pretty much unwatchable

  • FmCatenaccio FMCatenaccio (@FmCatenaccio) reported

    Losing sound and keeps buffering and turning off! Woeful service @btsport

  • RealRichardDoes Richard Does Social (@RealRichardDoes) reported

    @btsport I can’t get #btultimate to work on Apple TV. Is it down?

  • 4242Bruce Grumpy. (@4242Bruce) reported

    @btsport @SamsungUK I'm trying to watch the footfall using the BT app on a Samsung TV. Every 10-15 seconds it pauses and buffers. Missed both goals so far. This doesn't happen for any other streaming service. Help!!!

  • Howardmicks Howard Saurin (@Howardmicks) reported from Preston, England

    @btsport @SkyHelpTeam bt sports ultimate ?? On sky really...Big let down could at least update your customers what's going on......disgrace

  • RorySavage10 Rory Savage RM 🇬🇧🇮🇱 (@RorySavage10) reported

    @btsport Why are we being force fed anonymous female presenters/ former pub league footballers for analysis? This is Man's Football...they do the Women's already. It's bad enough listening to Rio Ferdinand trying to join up syllables. It's time to make things believable again.

  • hotspur55 Marco Mckelligan (@hotspur55) reported

    Mitrovic only 30 minutes into the games He's already exhausted lol..that why I never like this player #BTsport

  • twit_uk twit_uk (@twit_uk) reported

    @btsport app buffering even worse in second half. Woeful service

  • J91keane JK⭕ (@J91keane) reported

    I always have to watch @btsport on mute because they have the most BTEC pundits/ commentators. Michael Owen and Jermain Jenas are enough to ruin any game. #NonsensePundits Fix it up, BT. Jenas is so boring & talks absolute poo! Ruining opening weekend.

  • LewisJW96 Lewis ⛩️ (@LewisJW96) reported

    @btsport missing the first game of the season thanks to you completely denying me access to my account despite giving you money in order to do so. No explanation or help on the phone either. Cheers 👍

  • ryanstormm RG (@ryanstormm) reported

    @CrumbsTMT @btsport Using the app through my Xbox and not had a problem.

  • Law123John John Law (@Law123John) reported

    @btsport there appears to be a problem with your sound on BT Sports 1....??!!
