    This company is a piece of **** >> @bt_uk if you don't want their lousy and expensive service anymore they tell you that you have to pay them to get out. crap of thieves

  • paulmall21 paul m (@paulmall21) reported

    @bt_uk Hi lesley, had problems with wireless and bttv connected via ethernet, hub light was blue

  • BubbaJoe3 Bubba Joe (@BubbaJoe3) reported

    @bt_uk Never got a call back and you closed the complaint - I have reopened it - still no broadband phone line or bttv

  • DexterCFC ₿ibhushan Havertz ⭐⭐🇳🇵 (@DexterCFC) reported

    @Stamfordrich @btsport Probably got a warning after celebrating our CL win after the final whistle, poor Joe.

  • Steveblue17260 Steve Baldwin (@Steveblue17260) reported

    Very proud of @ChelseaFC last night they were quite brilliant. Yet again we are undone by a couple of poor referring decisions. Worst part was how happy the @btsportfootball @btsport commentator was when benzema scored? I swear he spat out his tonsils when he screamed so loudly!

  • Barringtonious Barrington Great (@Barringtonious) reported

    BT: Here’s a great new fibre deal at £50/m for 24 months. (Puts price up by 10% 1 month into contract) BT: Haha go **** yourself if you thought you were going to pay what we said you’d pay! @bt_uk

  • AntPtm Ant Patamia (@AntPtm) reported

    Hello @BT_UK I set up a monthly BT Sports pass in Feb. Both last month & today you’ve claimed that payment couldn’t be taken on the card (money is there) and cancelled service. I can’t resolve via web service - the required page won’t load. Last month I had to phone. Any ideas?

  • purplepenguin81 Kelly🐧🤘🌻🌱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 (@purplepenguin81) reported from Romford, England

    Why is it that sports channels advertise motor sports by showing the crashes but don't advertise football by showing the broken legs? @SkySports @btsport #F1

  • kjloy Kate Loynes 📚 (@kjloy) reported

    @bt_uk currently been on hold for 25 minutes to one of your customer service team after he said he’d go and ‘set’ something up. Is he coming back???

  • KitherRaegan Raegan Kither (@KitherRaegan) reported

    @btbusinesscare I have sent a complaint in with my contact number. I’m not available until 12.

  • Barringtonious Barrington Great (@Barringtonious) reported

    @btbusinesscare Had your complaint response letter through, which does nothing to address the points I made. Just a templated “**** off” response about the annual price increases. Like I said, morally bankrupt company.

  • TomDEX88 Tom (@TomDEX88) reported

    Not even a sniff of a mention of how bad Kante was tonight in the punditry, It’s like because he’s been good in the past and is a nice guy no one wants to say he’s been ****. Don’t be scared to say he cost us the game @btsport @btsportfootball

  • Ann_Scott2 Ann Scott (@Ann_Scott2) reported

    @bt_uk You ceased providing my service ( phone and internet which works off the phone line) on 7th March as I switched to a cheaper provider. You are still sending me bills for a service you no longer provide. This is stressful, please sort it out. Your call centre tried but no progress

  • derbyshireroads Derbyshire roads (@derbyshireroads) reported

    @BKVirtualOffice @Derbyshirecc @bt_uk should be able to help. Thanks

  • CathKell24 Catherine 💙 (@CathKell24) reported

    @bt_uk lost connection and can't reconnect. Tried all usual restart/reboot stuff. Is there a problem in G73 area?

  • BubbaJoe3 Bubba Joe (@BubbaJoe3) reported

    @bt_uk It's a fault - engineer visited and said it is a problem outside of the property - That was over a week ago - can't remember exactly when - what is the process for cancelling my contract

  • FUFowlers FUFowlers (@FUFowlers) reported

    @NellThompson01 @bt_uk I'm having the same problem. It seemed to start a couple of weeks ago

  • zane99 Adam Zand (@zane99) reported

    @bt_uk apparently there is a fault in my area that will take a week to fix but neighbours have their Internet ok with BT. Concerned my situation is being mismanaged and I might need an engineer appointment? Anyway to check it out for me?

  • medvi_mishi MedviMishi (@medvi_mishi) reported

    Dear @btsport, why, tell me why you rob football fans of 50% of CL quarterfinals by insisting on announcing score from the "other game". Did it never cross anyone's mind that it's bleeding ridiculous? #uefachampionsleague

  • VKingBN Victoria King (@VKingBN) reported

    @bt_uk internet is down in BN2 area, run tests but still flashing purple??? Any ideas?

  • davidwarren52 David Warren (@davidwarren52) reported

    Impressed by service of @BTCare They spotted a problem and engineer within 24 hours. #service #efficiency but wish the octave was just a little cheaper! Hahaha.

  • Maxnwhiteley2 Max n whiteley (@Maxnwhiteley2) reported

    @Jomboy_ I’ll try and grab a video next weekend but they only played it once during the Yankees Red Sox game (2) and they only played the slam. @btsport help me out here.

  • ygbhawktube Hawk (@ygbhawktube) reported

    @alessroby @bt_uk I got told the issue was my end and if they sent a technician out it would cost the same as canceling my contract and moving... so I moved to TalkTalk and it has worked ever since. If they had just sent a new router I bet they would still have me.

  • ygbhawktube Hawk (@ygbhawktube) reported

    @bt_uk Internet down in WR7 area?

  • AntPtm Ant Patamia (@AntPtm) reported

    @bt_uk Thanks Theresa but I can’t do that. The page never loads. Hence why I had to phone the call centre last month. I tried again today. I just get the bouncing dots. That’s on multiple devices with different OS and different browsers. The problem is at your end.

  • superthing Vincent Vega (@superthing) reported

    @bt_uk How does that help? I know when part 2 of Season 7 starts, and I know I can't catch up on part 1 because you've not made it available on demand.

  • dr_scd stuart (@dr_scd) reported

    @bt_uk I did this before and you said you couldn’t help other than let me know that someone would call me at a different time to what I was promised! Details are the same as I sent you yesterday @Ofcom

  • marsha4854 Marsha (@marsha4854) reported

    @bt_uk got a call from BT about slow broadband speed. Our broadband is from Sky. Was this a scam?
