    @bt_uk Engineer was supposed to come between 8-1, never arrived. Rang up, said they'd send another one, never arrived. My whole day waiting for people who didn't come. And the original one not checking it was working. I'm giving up. Now Sunday with no Internet as BT is off

  • Peppercorn08 Tara (@Peppercorn08) reported

    @bt_uk I have just sent a PM explaining our issues - if somebody could reply to that I can let you have my number. We currently have no landline or internet so I will need to let you have a mobile number. It worries me to continue with our order if I cannot make contact ?

  • Idontmind64 🖤Chris Penney, Esq. #ActOnTheRussiaReport💙 (@Idontmind64) reported

  • DrJohnCosgrove John Cosgrove 🇪🇺 (@DrJohnCosgrove) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks James. That doesn't seem to be the problem. There seems to be complete loss of connection rather than buffering. (It works fine tethering to my phone on a different 4G network)

  • BigUpBissouma BHAWill (@BigUpBissouma) reported

    @bt_uk PLEASE sort out your ******* wifi. It is beyond ****. This is about the 5th tweet I’ve sent moaning about it. Cos it’s complete ****. I could **** in a plastic bag, put that in a rocket and fly it to ******* Saturn and it would give me better wifi than you do. Sort it out

  • aberfoodblog Tony Jones (@aberfoodblog) reported from Llanychaiarn, Wales

    So after 12 years it's goodbye @bt_uk Automatic price rises within contract and ending free weekend calls make it Hello @zeninternet Speaking to BT Loyalty Dept just wound me up. "Price is £40, until it goes up in two weeks." And I'm not subsidizing their stupid Sport channel.

  • C4mrin 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Cameron🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@C4mrin) reported

    @bt_uk Not my experience of BT - the Apps that stream on my Samsung TV work better and more reliable than BT Vision box, particularly UHD which is really poor.

    @virginmedia Sorry but waiting over 1 1/2 hours online and on the phone with no reply is poor @btsport and @SkyUK both under 20 minutes. You many want to feee that back

  • OK_Commuter_ Misery Guts (@OK_Commuter_) reported

    @scoke83 @btsport He’s awful. To be honest there’s a real lack of good commentators these days, bring back Barry Davies, or Brian Moore, or even Motson!
