    @btsport Ridiculous that in these terrible times that companies want to take more money off people with PPV… we already pay too much for BT sport… Most of the big events are now PPV wrestling, boxing, UFC so the average person can’t afford to watch them

    @bt_uk seriously ****** off that when i joined BT Mobile just now, the only way to get the new SIM working was to wipe all network settings INCLUDING WIFI AND BLUETOOTH! I told your this was a big deal but was assured there was no other way 🤬

    @bt_uk I switched to Sky on the 25th August, and BT still took my direct debit in September. My account still shows open, and my next bill date is tomorrow. Despite 2 calls to BT to sort I'm still none the wiser. Please point me to someone with the ability to sort this simple issue?

  • harlequin_1963 Gary Mackenzie (@harlequin_1963) reported

    @bt_uk Weird, I had to report a faulty line to you, which was a result of that broken cable. Lines being damaged were reported to an engineer fixing another line, but as he hadn't been called out to it, he wasn't interested. I may get an engineer (BT SMS automated answer) in 48 hrs

  • EmzMcColl Emma McColl 💙 (@EmzMcColl) reported

    @bt_uk would like a response to when an elderly relatives phone-in will be fixed. Now more than 24hours with no phone line and no emergency community alarm.

  • AlanMacleod14 Alan Macleod (@AlanMacleod14) reported

    Day 75 since I ordered broadband from @bt_uk and still no connection, no idea when there might be a connection, and another level of ‘escalation’ that doesn’t go anywhere from the BT support team who seem to think it’s ok to just ‘call back in 10 days with an update’. #BT

  • Dazwarby01 Darren Warburton (@Dazwarby01) reported

    @bt_uk Hi BT Broadband - internet outage in the Leigh WN7 area. Any updates please on when service will be resumed

    @bt_uk It's now been over three hours since I messaged you about my wi-fi being down and I still haven't heard a goddamn thing back from you. Thoroughly unimpressed.

  • leewardle3 lee wardle (@leewardle3) reported

    @bt_uk Yeah that's all you do..nothing at all validate this send this look into it then NOTHING. Do nothing even against data protection laws.then blame ex customer when it's all your fault.

  • johncapspipes John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ☄️ (@johncapspipes) reported
