  • Barritello Barritello (@Barritello) reported

    1/2 The top 4 managers who should be on the glazers list to replace Ole, Graham potter - overachieving with a squad he’s built with minim cash. Negative would be he’s never coached world class players, how will he handle them? #ManUtd #OleOut #btsport

  • PrincessHamira Shelley Tobin (@PrincessHamira) reported

    Has anyone else in #EX5 got a problem with internet connection or BT outage at the moment. Currently speaking to @bt_uk about lack of connection for second week running, saw @OpenreachHelp had van out on main road, is it a local issue or closer to home? Please get it fixed!

  • BN_LFC BN LFC (@BN_LFC) reported

    @JonathanDoyne @bt_uk Had same issue it’s ridiculous. Paying for what?!

  • TractorFromNFK Tractor Boy (@TractorFromNFK) reported

    The BT Sport App is actual dog **** ****. Doesn’t work on my Apple TV doesn’t work on my Shield. Working fine on my Xbox though. @btsportfootball @btsport fix it please.

  • WillR01 Will (@WillR01) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks. Is there a problem with all bt internet?

  • ryandavid97 Ryan (@ryandavid97) reported

    Anyone else having massive sound issues with @btsport @btsportfootball @bt_uk today?

  • susanstanwix sozzledsue 🇬🇧💐👩‍🌾🐶 (@susanstanwix) reported

    @Robfm @BTCare They are sending me a new phone for free and sending an engineer out on Friday to fix everything. I am so happy.

  • alexsuprtramp G (@alexsuprtramp) reported

    @samj0606 @btsport @sky Same here. Every 10-15 mins says “there is a problem” but you can press play again and it works. Then same thing happens again after another 10-15

  • KWMadhead94 ❤︎ 𝕊 𝕚 𝕟 𝕖 𝕒 𝕕 ❤︎ (@KWMadhead94) reported

    Having to watch the football match(on bt sport app) on my daughter’s PS4, due to it still not working on the ps5!😐 @AskPlayStation @btsport #btsport #ps5

  • alexsuprtramp G (@alexsuprtramp) reported

    @Ryan55883442 @btsport Yeah it repeatedly says there’s a problem every 10-15 minutes. So annoying

  • JonathanDoyne Doynemite (@JonathanDoyne) reported

    @bt_uk can’t watch BT Sports through PS5 for longer than 10 seconds before it crashed with error code VC019, any suggestions on how to fix this been going on for weeks

  • TractorFromNFK Tractor Boy (@TractorFromNFK) reported

    @btsport do you wanna fix your apps?

  • chelsrobertson_ Chelsea Robertson (@chelsrobertson_) reported

    @bt_uk one week with no wifi and 10 calls later, was told that an engineer would come to fix today between 1-6pm and didn’t appear. No follow up and can’t get through and no call back being given despite texting Advisor many a time…

  • KevAceHarve Kevin Harvey (@KevAceHarve) reported

    @JTyrrell_ @btsport @bt_uk The situation is unacceptable - you’ve been aware of the problems for nearly a year now and still no sign of a fix. Yet you continue to list the PS5 as a compatible device and take people’s money!!

  • GARYLAW1 GARY LAW (@GARYLAW1) reported

    It’s time @btsport should find the close down their channels and concentrate on their broadband speeds which are currently a joke. If you wanted to watch highlights of a match on YouTube on their channel 6 to 17 MB is a disgrace.

  • phil_ot Phil (@phil_ot) reported

    @ManUtd Bruno has been awful again but I’m sure Fred & Mctominay will get the blame. @btsport #ManUtd #MUNATA

  • KevAceHarve Kevin Harvey (@KevAceHarve) reported

    @EE Eventually, but missed most of the first half. I pay extra for big screen access so I don’t have to watch it on my phone! @btsport are aware of the problem and have failed to fix despite the PS5 being a year old!

  • Reynolds3Simon Mr R 💙 (@Reynolds3Simon) reported from Wisbech, England

    @BTCare @BTBroadbandOUT shocking service no Internet 3 days minihub that is worse than useless. We work from home, pay for the highest level of BT broadband and they cannot even get an engineer to fix it. Will be transferring to another provider ASAP.

  • susanstanwix sozzledsue 🇬🇧💐👩‍🌾🐶 (@susanstanwix) reported

    @Robfm @BTCare Service should be the same everywhere but you do what you have to do to get results!

  • ELLUFC1 ELLUFC (@ELLUFC1) reported

    @btsport Robbie Savage not even trying to hide his support for Man Utd.

  • Gilbo41 Martin Gilson (@Gilbo41) reported

    @btsport I can't cast Man U losing onto my TV, which is a prima facae breach of human rights. Seriously, my BT Sport app says I haven't enabled casting. I have, for the last few years. I really want to see Man U lose on the biggest possible screen. Urgent. Help please. DM me.

  • R_K_M_H1 R.K.M.H (@R_K_M_H1) reported

    @bt_uk Still not working

  • MBKirton Mike (@MBKirton) reported from York, England

    If you're at a loose end, ponder this: how can Manchester United spend SO much money and have such a MASSIVE wage bill, and yet be so ****? #mufc #MUNATA #btsport

  • Robfm Robert Feal-Martinez #AllLivesMatter (@Robfm) reported

    @susanstanwix @BTCare Good, surprising how different customer service people in lots of companies are hit & miss. I had issues with my billing with a company & each time I was told it had been resolved, but it hadn't 3 times. On the 4th occasion the guy said there was no record of my calls he fixed it

  • nizzidenio Nizzdenio 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@nizzidenio) reported

    Is there anyone that uses the @btsport app on the @AmazonHelp firestick finding it laggy and jittery? I have no issues with any other apps on the firestick, and I have no issues with BT Sports on any other format. It's just on the firestick I have issues!

  • ashleelikescats Ashleigh (@ashleelikescats) reported

    Anyone got a BTSport login I can use 😭

  • mattporterr matt porter (@mattporterr) reported

    Wow… Eni Aluko saying that Christensen’s goal was a great finish hitting the ball into the ground!? He miss-kicked it and ended up shinning it! Awful @btsport! #CFC #CFCMFF

  • reggie_k Rob Knight (@reggie_k) reported

    @bt_uk you are useless useless useless . Why when I’m waiting patiently to chat online does it just end when my phone locks? Crap crap crap

  • tonysblabla Antony Scerri (@tonysblabla) reported

    another stupendous fail by @bt_uk phone lines +30 min wait, try online chat for a technical question...1.5hours later, even after it being escalated they couldnt even understand the question being asked and repeatedly gave back some unrelated information after telling them so

  • tew1984 Tom Worsley (@tew1984) reported

    New manager bounce should help Utd against Liverpool though so it's not all doom and gloom for them. #MUNATA #btsport
