  • DedeMac Dede MacGillivray (@DedeMac) reported

    @bt_uk This is the 3rd call I've made: 1st call told down to high usage, 2nd call sent a new hub, 3rd call told everything is working fine but would raise it...not convinced I was being listened to.

  • mbarnett87 Mark Barnett (@mbarnett87) reported

    Karen Carney is an awful commentator / pundit. There are plenty of other female commentators who could do a much better job. #BBC, @btsport, @btsportfootball, @primevideosport

  • ThugWookie Wookie (@ThugWookie) reported

    @bt_uk usin the Windows BT sport app now is givin me micro stuttering, is this a known issue. Didn't use too before app update.?

  • Elliot38844403 Elliot (@Elliot38844403) reported

  • jeffnewton1 Jeff (@jeffnewton1) reported

    @jimriley500 @btsport Sam Allardyce has a record of never having been relegated as a manager but records are there to be broken !

  • DrJohnCosgrove John Cosgrove 🇪🇺 (@DrJohnCosgrove) reported

    @bt_uk It's not a big deal for me as I can use Vodafone, but I wanted to check I wasn't misusing your service, and to make you aware. Thanks again for your help

  • charles_farles Charles Culbertson (@charles_farles) reported from Isleornsay, Scotland

    @DedeMac @bt_uk Another example of @bt_uk fobbing off their customers. Reported faults in the village have been “fixed” but keep recurring. If you would listen to your customers your network would improve and customer satisfaction would improve.

  • su_jo @su_jo 💙 (@su_jo) reported

    How much do you lot pay for @bt_uk broadband? I'm in £55.63 a month "the lowest price we can give you". Never use a landline. Surely that's too much?

  • jake_martin1995 Jake Martin (@jake_martin1995) reported

    @bt_uk I've been with BT for just over a month and was getting weak signal in part of my home so they sent a wifi disc and now I'm getting 70mbps all around the home, no issues at all

  • BroughyH Broughy (@BroughyH) reported

    @bt_uk Your **** internet just cost me a game on warzone

  • Mikey2004 Michael Thompson (@Mikey2004) reported

    @bt_uk can I get FTTP installed at BT635FS? Speeds the last 2 weeks have been awful

  • LMC37618496 LMC (@LMC37618496) reported

    @bt_uk broadband down. So much for FTTP being more reliable than copper. Only had it a few weeks and down already. #broadbanddown #noservice #nothappy

  • HCWaterman Hayley Waterman (@HCWaterman) reported

    @bt_uk Shame your parental controls have never worked, have to rely on Googles limited safe search on my children's tablets!

  • NanceHarrington nance harrington (@NanceHarrington) reported

    @bt_uk Hi I was wondering if you could, my Hub 2 is flashing purple and I’ve checked the grey cables 🤔 still have WiFi but I’d like to fix the hub so it’s back in the blue again... thanks in advance!

  • Life_Of_Iron Life of Iron (@Life_Of_Iron) reported

    @bt_uk hi, who or where can I check for broadband outages, my internet has gone down 12 times today already

  • ambermaba Amber (@ambermaba) reported

    @bt_uk are there any internet issues in the DA13 area that you are aware of please?

  • Todhague Peter Hague (@Todhague) reported

    @bt_uk Hi there Is there a way we can get in touch with customer service or tech support? We've been having issues connecting our tv to the internet None of the available advice has worked, but we can't find a way to get in touch We've been unable to access several channels for months

  • JustDaFacts7 Justin Leonce (@JustDaFacts7) reported

    I need another broadband provider as my current provider @bt_uk are not providing a good service at all. My mini hub struggles to play YouTube let alone allow me to work and the customer service i have received is shocking.

  • waalli90 Gareth wall (@waalli90) reported

    @bt_uk Hi. Sorry. Had to pop out. The problem has never been from exchange to router. Someone suggested radio interference causes the dropouts. Thanks for sending another disc. I have used the app to position before.

  • DerekHeenan Derek Heenan (@DerekHeenan) reported

    @bt_uk This has been done before, and then a few days later it doesn't work again. We never had these problems in our previous address

  • franholmes86 Fran Holmes (@franholmes86) reported

    If you think you know rugby, but only ever watch international matches, put @btsport 1 on now and watch @WaspsRugby away to @WorcsWarriors - I promise you it already has everything you never knew you were missing from just the first 10 minutes!

  • AlecMurrell Alec Murrell 💙 (@AlecMurrell) reported

    @bt_uk Missed the second half of the Wasps game because of it - frustrating. Tried resetting router but seems it’s a problem external to us.

  • Kia_Who_ KiaRebecca (@Kia_Who_) reported

    @bt_uk my internet has been silly slow speeds for months, it been turning on and off randomly, I’ve tried resetting my hub and nothing works. After nearly a year of this I want out of my contract. I’ve tried calling and live chat numerous times but nothing. DM + sort this please!

  • jimriley500 Jim Riley (@jimriley500) reported

    @jeffnewton1 @btsport Encouraging point, but too late I fear for survival. Never know in football.

  • roundaboutmark mark dickins (@roundaboutmark) reported

    @bt_uk i cancelled BT Sport, but the feature 2withhold my no. on all calls was activated (not by me). I called 2have taken off but told cant until my order is completed 5th March. I cant call over ¾ my contacts as they block private numbers. I never activated it & need it gone

  • Elliot38844403 Elliot (@Elliot38844403) reported

    Live B.t. pushed 1 button for b.t. sport now I'm in a 2 year contract and they've just doubled the monthly amount. #btsport . Closed my complaint for me br I could finish making it...Mugged off...

  • StanleyCorr Stanley Corr (@StanleyCorr) reported

    @bt_uk I feel like most of the people having issues just either don't know how to set up basic equipment or think WiFi is magic and can pass through anything. I actually pay attention to positioning relative to walls and I couldn't be happier with my service.

  • DedeMac Dede MacGillivray (@DedeMac) reported

    @bt_uk broadband connectivity problems for several households in our village. Each gets treated in isolation on calling when the problem is clearly with the box, hard to get this through to customer service: teacher trying to teach, 87 yr old trying to keep in touch, come on BT.

  • DrJohnCosgrove John Cosgrove 🇪🇺 (@DrJohnCosgrove) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you so much for checking, Sharon. Each time the connection drops, I reset hub and client. The problem then happens again when I next use iPlayer. It is not a speed issue.

  • Dion34339272 Dion (@Dion34339272) reported

    @bt_uk How can I cancel my BT Sport online ?
