  • willperryTV Will Perry (@willperryTV) reported from Ealing, England

    None of the Ultimate Boxxers have let us down yet. Guarantee this is going to go off as well! #ultimateboxxer @btsport @boxnationtv

  • paulgfromhg Paul Garton (@paulgfromhg) reported from Harrogate, England

    Hello @bt_uk I've been waiting all day for a call back from you regarding a complaint. Am now told this has been re-scheduled (without asking me). Wasted a full day on this. Seriously fed up. Sort it out.

  • PaintSewGlueChe Diana (@PaintSewGlueChe) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk my broadband has been down for nearly 2 days with not a single update on status. When I try to check the site for my phone number, the system crashes me out. Very frustrating.

  • AnneRuddock Anne Ruddock (@AnneRuddock) reported from Colchester, England

    @bt_uk Not a new build at all. Several operators ordered my broadband (phone line’s working fine) & then it kept being cancelled by the service provider. Numerous phone calls to yourselves, promised call backs didn’t happen. I gave you over 2 weeks to sort it out before going elsewhere

  • BarnStudioSigns Helen (Barn Studio Signs) (@BarnStudioSigns) reported from Leyburn, England

    @_Karen_C_ @bt_uk Yep. Scammers...just put the phone down if they ring again. xx

  • chrisphin Christopher Phin (@chrisphin) reported from Dundee, Scotland

    @bt_uk Hi, Aideen. We’re getting around 4Mb/sec down and are paying for Superfast Fibre Unlimited. Your question about the router just infuriates more. It’s not helpful. It’s irrelevant. The thread you replied to clearly stated BT itself identified the issue is with your own exchange.

  • DrChris_Walker Chris Walker (@DrChris_Walker) reported from Bardsey, England

    @bt_uk appalling #CustomerService a fault on our line - no #phone or #broadband & they can’t send engineer to investigate until at least Friday 16th. Wow you should be totally ashamed of your #shoddy service. I wish I could change.

  • DonnaJa21212926 Donna James (@DonnaJa21212926) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @bt_uk 5GG ha! Yet again U let us down. 3 yrs ago took 3mnths 2 set up & connect..now wr moving round corner U message 2 say no engineer avail for month later than agreed. Why would anyone stick with BT when Sky can offer better

  • IRDavies90 Ian Ross Davies (@IRDavies90) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @scottyd501 @xboxuk @btsport @bt_uk Yeah just wanted to check my options first, was hoping they’d help a loyal customer out... £46.99 a month at the moment.

  • Wendytheshopke1 Wendytheshopkeeper (@Wendytheshopke1) reported from Robin Hood's Bay, England

    No internet in Robin Hood's Bay what's the issue please update @bt_uk

  • hippy_jon Jon (@hippy_jon) reported from Market Harborough, England

    @bt_uk Morning. The speeds are generally ok but really slow at the moment. Connection drops at random.

  • daveshipp19 Dave Shipp (@daveshipp19) reported from Diggle, England

    @btsport Usual crap from Steve McManaman. Saying West Ham should deliberately bring City players down to stop them having an opportunity to score.

  • GriffinSpurs Griff (@GriffinSpurs) reported from Bridgend, Wales

    @sw1a0aa @rcolvile @CapX @EamonnIves @CPSThinkTank @cpsuk @musser_benson @WB_UK @truthsearch1957 @LBC @handyman_neil None of these people who made a judgement on me in local lodge know what it is like to have National Campaign of adverts sit down & await your new clients only to receive silence no leads not for a week or a month but years on 2 separate businesses @bt_uk

  • paulgfromhg Paul Garton (@paulgfromhg) reported from Harrogate, England

    @BTCare yet another complete mess caused by BT. Utterly incompetent. Surly, unhelpful staff. Letting down a vulnerable elderly customer. You are a disgrace.

  • sandyscon Sandy Aiken (@sandyscon) reported from Lutterworth, England

  • apjaved Alex Javed (@apjaved) reported from Inverness, Scotland

    @bt_uk Hi - I’m not at home at the moment to check but I’ve looked at my Hive and Ring systems and they appear to be online, so that suggests the outage has been fixed thanks.

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @CantSwingACat @bt_uk You should try Virgin Media! Don't forget you're entitled to Ofcom compensation if the has been a total loss of service for over 24 hrs I.e If their Infrastructure is at fault #poorcustomerservice

  • PattinsonWayne The Swordsman. (@PattinsonWayne) reported from Carlisle, England

    @TheQuirkmeister @Kelvin_Tatum @WolvesSpeedway @PboroPanthers @nigelpearson @TheTalkingThumb @TWoffinden @btsport @SpeedwayGB Not by popular demand, he's there to sell his book,if he was that bothered about Wolves he's been injured for over a month and never been there.

  • hippy_jon Jon (@hippy_jon) reported from Market Harborough, England

    @bt_uk I suppose that's one way to pass the nick on to some other poor call centre operative.

  • derekmanson Derek Manson (@derekmanson) reported from Dingwall, Scotland
