  • GursSehmi Gurs Sehmi (@GursSehmi) reported

    @bt_uk I called to check the status of a sim that I ordered. But instead, the lady blocked my sim. I would ask for help, but it looks like all you do is F things up more!!!

  • TweetOfWill Will Wareing 🍁🍂 🕉️ 🔰 (@TweetOfWill) reported

    @btsport why can I not log into my account on the Xbox one app? It's saying I need to upgrade my service. But it's perfectly upgraded thank you.

  • CathyAH1980 Cathy Harrison 💙 (@CathyAH1980) reported

    Are there issues with #broadband coverage in S73 @bt_uk ? Ours has gone off completely and others seem to be reporting issues locally but can't see anything on your website. #Barnsley #Rotherham

  • tinymonroe7 tinymonroe (@tinymonroe7) reported

    @btsport There’s only hope if you ditch McManaman. Awful.

  • tinymonroe7 tinymonroe (@tinymonroe7) reported

    @btsport Ditch McManaman . Awful.

    @milleniumlady @mac_pea @btsport Maybe being an example for young people, young black people and young aspiring athletes makes him a hero Not to say footballers are in the same bracket as medical and public service professionals; but a hero is subjective

  • Darkesthaze Hillary Ian Okello (@Darkesthaze) reported

    @bt_uk are u lot having issues with ur internet in and N15 just had my Internet completely drop and unable to reconnect.

  • GursSehmi Gurs Sehmi (@GursSehmi) reported

    @drjeff_tooth @BTCare Totally agree! 🤬🤬 So, my SIM card has now been blocked, I only have WiFi, and no idea if I'll get a new one!!! I can't believe how a company can be so terrible!!!

  • Helenski99 Wee Jimmy (@Helenski99) reported

    @btsport A week since ordering BT Sport on my Sky box. Still saying no subscription. So basically I’ve paid for a service I’ve not been able to access for a week. Having to seriously re-think moving from Sky to BT now.

  • GursSehmi Gurs Sehmi (@GursSehmi) reported

    So this phone call to @BTCare has been going on for more than an hour! All I wanted was to check the status of a SIM. Now, I've been blocked and they cant help. I'm on the 3rd useless advisor now (actually the second actually helped a little!)

  • jimbob1965 James Roberts (@jimbob1965) reported

    @PSAWorldTour @SquashTV @btsport I don't think you are! Trust a fix will be found soon ...

  • Penbrynhir Dr Jen Llywelyn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Penbrynhir) reported

    @StevenBolander1 @bt_uk Rach, I'm really unhappy with how BT & Openreach compete with each other. They don't seem to want to help customers. I've been told 2ce in 3 weeks - by BT engineers - to request a new router from BT. Today I was told I shouldn't have been told that (which is unprofessional). 1/2

  • LaneKerri kerri lane (@LaneKerri) reported

    @bt_uk is there a problem with your MyBT app at the moment?

  • AndyByr72089874 Andy Byrne (@AndyByr72089874) reported

    @btsport Awful connection yet again will be leaving as soon as

  • SunlightGlider Incendiary Pig (@SunlightGlider) reported

    @btsport He was absolute rubbish against Italy in the final. No wonder England win nothing with garbage like this in the team.

  • SuzWong69 Suzanne Wong (@SuzWong69) reported

    Hi @bt_uk how can I get help with regards to a 10 week ongoing internet issue which has now resulted in us having no internet. 10 failed orders, over 30 phone calls and the latest resulting in a manager not responding to our phone calls? Thank you

  • mac_pea Matte Pea (@mac_pea) reported

    @EJL3491 @1905London @btsport Because we have started to realise that it is a team game where individual bravery to help the team should be commended, even if it doesn’t result in a team win?

  • thetinycandle Thetinycandlecompany (@thetinycandle) reported

    @bt_uk maybe it’s time you dropped @parcelforce their service is shockingly poor

  • rick060677 Evo (@rick060677) reported

    @btsport Never mind new hope, no hope would have been better.

  • Andy_Tattersall Andy Tattersall (@Andy_Tattersall) reported

    @bt_uk You'd have thought that in this day and age I could get hot tea down the phone line. #WhatUtopia

  • StarshapedPaul Paul Campbell (@StarshapedPaul) reported

    @DarranMcC @SkySportsPL @btsport Totally agree this trend is a trip down a black hole. no glamour in big debt.

  • Penbrynhir Dr Jen Llywelyn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Penbrynhir) reported

    @StevenBolander1 @bt_uk I need a new router now. My speed was 7.1 today. Your guaranteed speed is 66! 7.1 is unacceptable, and it looks bad on BT that you don't want to help. I'm fed up with being palmed off with platitudes. I am a customer. I pay for 66 Mg! Please tell me how to obtain a new router.

  • Thegiest Charles R Gibson #SavetheNHS .#WaitingforLabour (@Thegiest) reported

    @bt_uk Tried to get my line checked as I'm having problems with my Infinity 2 unlimited broadband. Every thing keeps dropping off, including my CCTV Cameras. The operator said don't hang up the phone, then said they couldn't check the line because it was busy. What's that about ?

  • PercyBros Sam (@PercyBros) reported

    @bt_uk I can't sign into the app, I registered @btsport via @EE now when I even sign in online it doesn't work at all, both of your customers service is a joke
