  • RichardGB76 Richard G. Bartholomew (@RichardGB76) reported

    If anyone, like me, just can't be doing with the birds in the studio and in the commentary box for the #AVFC V #EFC game on #BTSport , I recommend Bein Sports. Still traditional; they haven't been infested by the box-ticking ****.

  • jumpnarcissus Jump, Narcissus! (@jumpnarcissus) reported

    @Plusnet Signed up to BTSport 7 days ago, but BT giving me ID003 error on login. No idea what to do from here

  • kymsalmon kym salmon (@kymsalmon) reported

    @KernowChris @bt_uk I had this too but didn’t do it now i have no service so unsure if it’s a coincidence or not.

  • blizzardfinder Richard (@blizzardfinder) reported

    @btsport @btsportfootball hey BT why is it only women commentating on woman’s football but you insist on never allowing just men to commentate on the mens game? Positive discrimination gone mad #everton #AstonVilla

  • SacuShi_II SacuShi_II 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌈 (@SacuShi_II) reported

    @maureenlipman would you come out and express support for the BT workers being forced to accept a 6% paycut in real terms, while the current CEO gets a 32% payrise? Im sure Beatie wouldnt approve of this.. @bt_uk #10nothingless #FoodbankPhil

  • kymsalmon kym salmon (@kymsalmon) reported

    @bt_uk Hi is there anything wrong with bt mobile? We have no service for calls or 4G?

  • calumwaite CW (@calumwaite) reported

    @bt_uk Been through all this on Wednesday.. engineers have visited neighbours and identified a problem with the lines about 3 miles away yet still no fix… you should send me a dongle or something as it seems like a big issue that is going to be prolonged

  • h0psfield Matthew (@h0psfield) reported

    @btsport please sort out your app. It’s the worst streaming service out there ! Buffering every 5min - I’m on 500Mbsps FFS!!!! Sort it out please!

  • calumwaite CW (@calumwaite) reported

    @bt_uk My broadband has been down for days. It is the same for the whole block of flats (ie not an issue with my router). Your team are sending an engineer to my flat but it’s clearly an external problem. When will it be fixed!!?! This is ridiculous now. N4 area.

  • GrewnJodi jodi kristen grewn (@GrewnJodi) reported

    @bt_uk @Steve91968191 At least you have an engineer working I have had 4 engineers booked and stayed home never turn up A BT manager is calling me back I bet thru don’t

  • MadKDog Stuart McKinnon (@MadKDog) reported

    Oh no the comms again on #BTSport bloody awful! Hope Amazon get all the rights asap!. #AVLEVE

  • jazzpool21 Jazzer (@jazzpool21) reported

    @btsport Gordon getting reputatiin as a diver, which is sad as decent player. Rules sb if a player goes down with head injury & #VAR can see no connection, then player stays off pitch for 10 mins. Will stop players cheating or feigning injury, as arm was clearly against chest!

  • WYSIW Just an ordinary bloke (@WYSIW) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Bt . There is an engineer working on a green box in the street ‘open reach’ all our landlines have stopped working, 18 houses, he said its nothing to do with him HELP PLEASE

  • JPW224 Just Mike (@JPW224) reported

    @blizzardfinder @btsport @btsportfootball Poor little Richard, terrified of women being an active part of the world he lives in. Poor sad little Richard xx

  • ste50efc ste50efc (@ste50efc) reported

    @btsport why have a stronger and growing female league now why do we have female pundits providing insight in a game they've never experienced how can you be an expert or give insight on something you've no experience of? Surely there's enough work covering a game they know?

  • JohnOleary83 John O'Leary (@JohnOleary83) reported

    @btsport Why this obsession with female pundits and commentators on men’s football. No one gets it. It’s a joke. It never used to be this way and the coverage was so much better. PC woke brigade gone mad. Who actually thinks this is a good idea in those BT Sport meetings..

  • Tsarcastic_ Jez a Bell (@Tsarcastic_) reported

    It took @BTSport until gameweek 2 to flood our eyes and ears with wokeism. **** the viewers, eh? We just pay the extortionate subscription fees that pay their wages #AVLEVE

  • CraigLangton5 Craig Langton (@CraigLangton5) reported

    @btsportfootball @btsport pundits n commentators are becoming painful to listen too. You need some people who might say something that you’re not expecting or never heard before or maybe something controversial.

  • thepeoplesmovie The People's Movies (@thepeoplesmovie) reported

    @bt_uk Sorry Lesley Ive been trying to watch prime video but I 12 hours on no one can help told to contact Prime Video I live in the UK but whoever I spoke to said I'm in the USA, 26 years since Ive been to USA, so Ive decided to cancel waisted too much time as BT unwilling to help

  • sammkt Sam (@sammkt) reported

    @bt_uk Is there anyway to contact online to talk about changing our package? Live chat keeps saying I can only phone you but that's really difficult for me to do. Not happy that my offers in my account that say "lower than a new customer price " are not lower at all.

  • easynova Növa (@easynova) reported

    @bt_uk Why is my BT sport picture quality so bad? Is it so I spend the extra for HD?

  • Zionists4Liz Zionists4Liz (@Zionists4Liz) reported

    Absolute irony that @mrjakehumphrey rammed women pundits down our throats last season and now they’ve taken his job 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 #SalmanRushdie #btsport #ASTEVE

  • DTBolton1234 DT (@DTBolton1234) reported

    @easynova @bt_uk I’m having the same issue on Virgin.
