    @btsport Could you kindly inform me of how to cancel your service which we have via sky? I telephoned this morning and was rudely told that I would have to call Sky. Your website indicates otherwise.

  • DanHarvey74 Harvs (@DanHarvey74) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @GaryLineker @btsport Is that your "bad" toe?

  • Secrethamper Secret Hamper ™ (@Secrethamper) reported from Tolleshunt Major, England

    Hi @bt_uk our phone lines are down yet again, the 3rd time in as many weeks and 1-4 days to fix… this is our busiest time of year and we are missing lots of potential business which is costing us dearly

  • _LannyWalker Lanny (@_LannyWalker) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk spoke too soon. The pole outside is defective and needs replacing. Note, my neighbour has been having the same issue which started In February

  • _LannyWalker Lanny (@_LannyWalker) reported from London, England

    Why raise my hopes with an installation date when the pole issue was obviously known beforehand? Now I have to wait on slo mo copper wires again @bt_uk

  • alanburkittgray Alan Burkitt-Gray (@alanburkittgray) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk @ninabake2 No, BT, it's you who's having the problems with Nina's account. Stop passing the blame on to her

  • hwrightxo Hannah Wright (@hwrightxo) reported from Thundersley, England

    @bt_uk The 4g mini hub you’ve sent me isn’t working. It doesn’t show up when I search for it under Wifi. Tried a hard reset & held the button down. Any ideas?

  • adekoya_k MISS OLUBUNMI (@adekoya_k) reported from London, England

    @bt_uk It is absolutely ridiculous, how difficult it is to contact BT, if one has a problem or a simple inquiry. And to think, BT are supposed to be Trial Blazers in this field. Anyway, I need to speak 🗣 to someone about a refund for an Installation that was not carried out.

  • NicoSCMP Nick Atkin (@NicoSCMP) reported from London, England

    Have tried to resist the urge to go Full Karen on @bt_uk. Phoned them 2 weeks ago to tell them my parents’ home phone line has been cut in half and broadband is down. Have booked 4 appointments with their engineers, each time they haven’t turned up or said anything. shite 🗑

  • Glo_Thienel Glo Thienel (@Glo_Thienel) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hi @bt_uk Please check DM need help on confirmation of new upgrade done on Sunday, not showing on account

  • jlarkin123 The Power 1962 (@jlarkin123) reported from Wickford, England

    ******* BT pundits are so Poor/biased it’s unreal - thankfully don’t pay for this **** on a regular basis @btsport

  • RWheelhouse1 rachel Wheelhouse (@RWheelhouse1) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @bt_uk is it is acceptable for elderly customers to be disregarded as they do not use a mobile phone? Engineers due 8-1 today, agent I'm speaking to today has IT issues and keeps getting disconnected... I need to speak to a manager ASAP as agent isn't doing that

  • whitedan2001 Dan White (@whitedan2001) reported from London, England

    Hi @bt_uk we’ve had no fibre broadband in our area (Forest Hill, SE23) since Saturday. It was supposed to be fixed by 1pm yesterday. Spoke to call centre and they promised it would be done by 5pm. Still not working this morning - what’s going on?

  • Mork4mindy Garry Harvey (@Mork4mindy) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @krishan_davis Yes, let down by @BTSport the commentary is awful and so biased with 4-5 repeats of dismissals in an over. Thank God for TMS commentary. #Awful

  • TimothyDRCarr Tim Carr (@TimothyDRCarr) reported

    @btbusinesscare I doubt it’s they even make a true mesh network. Nevertheless I stuck with them. Fast forward to today my FF 900 service went live. Now it turns out the Smart Hub 2 Wi-Fi itself can’t handle anything above 400mbps. You can only get 900mbps when connected….

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    Trying to change phone from @bt_uk to @Plusnet. Plus Net say they can't takeover line due to incompatible "social telephony" & I must ask BT to remove it. BT deny it's a problem and say Plus Net can transfer. To and fro, to and fro. Neither will talk to each other. HELP.

  • QuentinKirrin Quentin Kirrin (@QuentinKirrin) reported

    @jhoffman___ I ask these companies why they dont want #hetero customers.. they get VERY annoyed.. yes @bt_uk you are one of the worst

  • damdanowich Dam (@damdanowich) reported

    Has anything happened around NG20? I’m getting no service and previously I had full 5G coverage @bt_uk

  • Darth_Bricey Tony Brice (@Darth_Bricey) reported

    @bt_uk Afternoon BT. I'm reluctant to wait another 30 mins in call queue when I've just signed up for a costly sub with yourselves. Would you be able to advise me why I only received a wifi expander disc and not the secondary hub for the backup router on my Halo service?

  • damdanowich Dam (@damdanowich) reported

    @bt_uk So far I noticed problems with mobile only.

  • Darth_Bricey Tony Brice (@Darth_Bricey) reported

    @bt_uk Is there a reason my friend has two then? One main hub and one that goes in the back of his and is used to connect to open zone (I assume) if his home internet goes down. I was told that I had guaranteed internet if there ever was a problem and assumed that's how it works?!?!

  • NewTechJourney NewTechJourney (@NewTechJourney) reported

    @bt_uk can you tell me rent your fibre to the house broadband can’t cope with music being streamed and online gaming at once? Your service will soon be terminated. Useless

  • traceywinterton Tracey Winterton (@traceywinterton) reported

    @bt_uk Absolutely awful service today! 😡 Sister in law told she is paying for broadband that she doesn’t have but was told there’s nothing you can do about it despite being told by one of your team that this would be taken off her bill. Please sort this.

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you for the quick response. Tried BT once more (that's THREE TIMES today) and got lucky - the agent understood the problem and is removing the marker. There is a training gap in your call centre, agents saying it was a @Plusnet mistake when it was theirs.
