  • Hossy93 Joseph Drane (@Hossy93) reported from Brandon, England

    @Gaz_House @btsport Or you could go down the night before. 😉

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk And people on Twitter may be looking for a new broadband connection and should be aware of the level of service from BT

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Crook, England

    @bt_uk False alarm, it was a nice neighbour dropping off a Christmas card - I saw an Openreach van down the road and assumed that you had actually done something!!

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

  • JonnyMiller5 Jonathan Miller (@JonnyMiller5) reported from Prudhoe, England

    @BTCare @bt_uk again my WiFi has gone down. There has been no reports in my area and I have done everything the app has asked me to do. Can you please help

  • mulcs85 John Mulcahy (@mulcs85) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @IamAustinHealey @Saracens @ChampionsCup @leinsterrugby @btsport Congrats Saracens - but some serious self evaluation needed by Leinster - not why we lost but reffing of offside and breakdown was a bad joke - really has to be addressed - laws already there - enforce them

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk ...... Your wifi is shit

  • TVBCJonpaul Jonpaul Heron (@TVBCJonpaul) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Working fine all day, week and month. Now watching #ChampionsLeagueFinal2019 on @btsport on YouTube and it’s now poor. Very interesting.

  • HarrymBarham Harry Barham (@HarrymBarham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Oh dear @bt_uk… Offered a new contract twice, but my acceptance has been ignored then was supposed to be transferred on a call today but the transfers are broken so was given a direct number…. for the wrong department, who are now panicking because they’re getting random calls

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • SunderlanDave Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @btsport Steve McManaman has to be the worst co-commentator in the history of co-commentators #LIVBAR #ChampionsLeague

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from South Hetton, England

    @bt_uk Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree Please fix my broadband just for me I've waited now for many days (17 and counting) Many promises fade in the haze Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree Please make my broadband work for me

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

  • xToonsend Dominic Townsend (@xToonsend) reported from Washington, England

    The only negative thing about watching this cracking Toon win is having to listen to that **** Michael Owen chat shit after it #NUFC #btsport

  • foslar71 Peter Foster (@foslar71) reported from Consett, England

    Can someone from @btsport find that annoying kid in the @afcbournemouth stand and tell him to shit the f**k up.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • YesCompSols Alan Goodman (@YesCompSols) reported

    There appears to be severe congestion impacting segments of the @btbusinesscare network intermittently over the past 48 hours. Pretty unusual as normally BT are on top of stuff like this. 5-15% packet loss, IPv4 and v6, not appears both. ~15% of lines I monitor.

  • leecthompson Lee (@leecthompson) reported

    @bt_uk Internets down. Fix it.

  • ieagleits kc (@ieagleits) reported

    @bt_uk Does it normally take 3+ month to have your a line installed, and 4 calls to say the engineer has in issue at tbe exchange when we keep stating there is no line. customer services keep calling every week, but no line has been put it, BT your services is a joke.

  • Snappersnap Matt (@Snappersnap) reported

    @bt_uk get your BT online payment system sorted I have tried 7 times today to make payment it's not working properly and it's your fault not mine

  • SealeyMike Boosted Mike Sealey (@SealeyMike) reported

    Dreadful service from @EE and @bt_uk I guess this is the drawback to having many contracts with one provider - when they ***** it up, the whole thing gets ballsed up.

  • lizbth_geeks Weaponised sarcasm (@lizbth_geeks) reported

    @bt_uk /2 couldn't find my house or be bothered to try to call me seems cruel. If I'd wanted shonky customer service I'd've stayed with Virgin, you know? I expected better, and I can't even raise this as a complaint online because I'm tethering from a mobile and the page won't load.

  • AimezPiano love_pianomusic&drawing (@AimezPiano) reported

    @bt_uk in this day and age and the importance of having broadband because of working from home how can BT make the decision only to work weekdays and not Bank Holidays or Weekends. And waiting up to 4 days to fix my broadband (via EE) is an acceptable business decision?

  • dingledigger Dingledigger (@dingledigger) reported

    @bt_uk problem with extremely slow BT business broadband in MK465AD. Therefore unable to access account to raise query?

  • PaulDelight paul nixon (@PaulDelight) reported

    @HayleyDoot @bt_uk I never seen email either, £5 price increase is a lot and no extra speed or anything. BT used to be good once out of contract bye

  • NikKatushkin Katushkin (@NikKatushkin) reported

    @bt_uk They looked into my billing issue, and then came across my phone line issue, which I had been reassured by another advisor on Saturday was in progress, but from today’s conversation, seems like it wasn’t.
