  • kevanp Kevan Pegley (@kevanp) reported

    @bt_uk Quick question to avoid waiting half-an-hour for phone support: we are transferring our BT broadband service to a new address—should we take the BT hub with us, or will you provide a new one at the new address?

  • GannetPaul Paul Eaton (@GannetPaul) reported

    @rioferdy5 @btsport @bt_uk You don't seem to have any problem associating with a proven Xenophobic on your timeline though.

  • utdjimuk UtdJim 🔴⚫️⚪️ (@utdjimuk) reported

    @rioferdy5 @btsport @bt_uk Rio, you’re stuck in a weird media bubble and logic has gone out the window. You can’t ‘end’ something just by condeming it. One thing that might help is suitable consequences/punishment/ID etc - but just saying ‘hate is bad’ ain’t doing much 🥴🥴 it’s actually offensively token

  • ColinAGrainger Colin Grainger (@ColinAGrainger) reported

    @bt_uk Have reported it and phoned every day. A guy from a contractors finally came yesterday and said a cherry picker had to be brought out to fix a wire on a telephone poll that can’t be climbed. He said it should be yesterday and promised to phone back after a quick job. He never did

  • xenriklive Sparks (@xenriklive) reported

    @bt_uk you are breathtakingly awful. You are very efficient at taking money, but not at actually delivering a service. I'm seeking legal advice. You can't stop blaming other suppliers for you inability to activate people's internet in a time like this.

  • mylutterworth thisismylutterworth (@mylutterworth) reported

    @bt_uk Only your company can send a message that gives option to respond & when you try it errors!

  • ThisIsNuka_ Nuka (@ThisIsNuka_) reported

    How can @bt_uk offer a StayFast guarantee, but also say that 48 hours of TOTAL OUTAGE must occur before compensation is awarded? Literally how does that logic work?

  • ColinAGrainger Colin Grainger (@ColinAGrainger) reported

    @bt_uk I can’t write articles on my phone. My phone provider is also charging me extra for the extra 4g I am using . We both can’t use the mini hub as the signal keeps dropping out. We can’t print vital items and if we don’t get this sorted I’mnot only losing money but paying out extra

  • daz_jowsey Darren (@daz_jowsey) reported

    @bt_uk can you tell me what I need to do to cancel so I can change provider please? My broadband is useless now, disconnected more than it is connected. I've tried whatever I've been told by BT, no change.

  • Bigg_4L numero uno (@Bigg_4L) reported

    @MarcusRashford @btsport Down Rashy!

  • leemonts Lee Montague (@leemonts) reported

    @England @wembleystadium @bt_uk I sent a letter to jimm'll fix it to meet and train with England before Italia 90 #dodgedabullet

  • Str8UpGooner BlahBlahBlah (@Str8UpGooner) reported

    @rioferdy5 @btsport @bt_uk As much as I support this, I feel it will have no effect.

  • MuppetReaper MuppetReaper (@MuppetReaper) reported

    @bt_uk sent you a complaint 7 days ago about my installation that is due tomorrow (10th) still not heard from you

  • lochs_and_glens lochsandglens (@lochs_and_glens) reported

    @bt_uk How about you pledge to fix my broadband?

  • utdjimuk UtdJim 🔴⚫️⚪️ (@utdjimuk) reported

    @MarcusRashford @btsport Is anyone gonna tell these guys you can’t ‘end hate’ by simply saying ‘it’s bad’ (or kneeling down before a game)?

  • StateAverse STATE AVERSE - No to corruption. No to coercion. (@StateAverse) reported

    @bt_uk Damn, you guys just ended trolling.

  • spacemonkey135 boptimus prime (@spacemonkey135) reported

    @bt_uk my internet is gone fix pls

  • alfbibby Alf Bibby (@alfbibby) reported

    @MarcusRashford @btsport Unfortunatly as the people who boo when you take the knee shows it will never happen,

  • marcusmark2019 marcus (@marcusmark2019) reported

    @bt_uk so damn disgusted that 5mins round the corner from me my ex can get gigafast fibre but my address can't... WTF!!!

  • IzzieClarke Izzie Clarke ⚡ (@IzzieClarke) reported

    @bt_uk Our Internet has been down for 2 hours in the Leytonstone area but I can't check for updates as we don't have a landline. When will this be fixed? I've already had to cancel two meetings today and have a large work deadline for the end of the day.

  • ColinAGrainger Colin Grainger (@ColinAGrainger) reported

    @bt_uk I checked in next street as it’s 200 yards away. He gone after an hour . I phoned yesterday pm as the report line was down for a few hours to present staff with awards. A nice guy told me last night there was no record on my account of cherry pickets being needed so he would add

  • RagnarBelial Ragnar (blue checkmark) (@RagnarBelial) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks, but that doesn’t help. I don’t have any free sockets in the cupboard. Quite disappointing as I found a dongle for Sky+ box, which is at least 9 years old.

  • isitmywifi It’s your Wifi (@isitmywifi) reported

    @Caitlin_045 @bt_uk Sorry to hear that. We can help!

  • RagnarBelial Ragnar (blue checkmark) (@RagnarBelial) reported

    @bt_uk Are you just tweeting about sport or can you help with issues too? As in, is there a wi-fi dongle that would work with the TV Box, as I don't have the TV in the cupboard where the router and the line sit.

  • ColinAGrainger Colin Grainger (@ColinAGrainger) reported

    @bt_uk . Day four. No landline . Mini hub only for wi Fi . One of us can’t work at all. The other is trying hard but the signal keeps dropping out

  • MartinAbell17 Martin 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@MartinAbell17) reported

    @bt_uk I’m not surprised. The service from BT is absolutely appalling.

  • shirleybird1975 Jo Shirley (@shirleybird1975) reported

    @bt_uk what is going on with my complaint,no one seems to want to take ownership and resolve. Have been trying to get broadband installed since mid May, missed appointments, no updates and still numerous phone calls to you and still no connection. Shocking service 😡

  • HadamsZak Zak Hadams (@HadamsZak) reported

    @rioferdy5 @btsport @bt_uk Rio please get in touch I need someone with a heart to help me out rn ! 🙏

  • PGtwweets pam g (@PGtwweets) reported

    @defiaye @bt_uk My mum has shorthand & took detailed notes so I was able to raise the utter nonsense she'd been fobbed off with. Write everything down & explain you rely on it due to your disability. I was polite but pointed at their tactics for stalling investing the resources to fix it.

  • defiaye Brave (@defiaye) reported

    @PGtwweets @bt_uk BT just don’t seem to care. They know I’m disabled & I’m starting to think they are discriminating against me. They know I’m vulnerable yet they won’t or can’t restore the service. I want them to be honest about kilwinning - my frail neighbours are having the same problem too
