  • unclenobheadCB Philip Robinson (@unclenobheadCB) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Fully subscribed to @btsport for several years now but I refuse to watch another @NUFC **** show! #bruceout #EVENEW

  • stevewallwork Steve Wallwork (@stevewallwork) reported from Annfield Plain, England

    @lynseyhipgrave1 @btsport @sjsidwell I think we know the answer to that one Lynsey. Our record is traditionally poor on Boxing Day anyway.

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Whitburn, England

    @bt_uk The most inept company in the UK, call yourselves a communications company ! you couldn’t connect dots on a dot to dot child sheet let alone connect a new build property, customer for over 29 years! useless

  • QlikStu Stuart Wannop (@QlikStu) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to fibre 500, getting 120mbps on average. Slower than my previous BT package. Been told speed cannot be accurately measured into my hub. Still in cooling off period anything else I can try before I cancel it ?

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter ***** ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @rkelwick @fozia4 @bt_uk I’m waiting to receive my £100 as my BT Broadband regularly cuts me off Zoom calls and the picture quality from our BT TV is regularly terrible (but fine on the app on my iPad? 🤔)

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter ***** ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @fozia4 @rkelwick @bt_uk Indeed. And when you complain you just get fobbed off? They need to change the law to require a business to honour any service or produce they supply. Especially builders and tradesmen? Seems to be impossible to get them to put right errors they have made?

  • baldymanali Alastair Smith (@baldymanali) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk just received email from you saying my email will be suspended if I don't login. I read emails on your new (and I might say, useless) ap every day. Have complained about it previously. Get it sorted

  • WASNAPPER Martin (@WASNAPPER) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    2 days on & off now sitting listening to crap music. Not by choice but trying to report another fault to @plusnethelp service used to be good but garbage since @bt_uk got involved

  • lornafaym lornafay (@lornafaym) reported from Seaham, England

    Absolutely shocking customer service from @bt_uk this morning. Glad I was already calling to cancel but being ranted at, demanded to re-consider and called crazy just put the nail in the coffin.

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Still no reply or update when our broadband will be back on. Nearly 7 days without a business connection. Let down everyday by BT 🤬

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare I love the way you’ve got to speak to 5 people and none of them can give you a straight answer on when your connection will be live again. It’s like the secret service having BT as a business provider. Shocking service BT!

  • heatherpott heather potts (@heatherpott) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk please can you respond to my complaint ASAP #poorcustomerservice

  • glne12 gary littlemore (@glne12) reported from Longbenton, England

    Terrible @btsport sort it out

  • taylersant Tayler (@taylersant) reported from Newburn, England

    @bt_uk have been waiting three weeks for our internet to be installed, nobody turns up for appointment today, ring up to be spoken down too and told nobody was booked in so I need to rebook!!!! Worst customer service ever and having a nightmare before we even get our broadband!!!

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare Why aren’t you dealing with our issue after 6 days without business broadband? Disgraceful service as our business is at a standstill with no replies or urgency!

  • master_debonair Master Debonair (@master_debonair) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btbusinesscare guess what? Promised a phone call 1 hour after I spoke to your team on the phone at 10am and they haven’t rang back. You are exceeding my expectations of being the worst service provider in the UK right now 👏

  • gerrinnesmac Gerry1nnes (@gerrinnesmac) reported from Peterlee, England

    @bt_uk Tweets are nice but I don't understand how you're in business! I've tried 7 times over three days to call you and you never ever pick up! Just a constant recycled message about being busy! If you can't handle busy you shouldn't be in business.

  • kennydude Joe Simpson (@kennydude) reported from Seaham, England

    @quidco If you could also sort the communication problem between yourselves and @bt_uk that’d be great.

  • AdvancedIFA Advanced IFA Ltd (@AdvancedIFA) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @btsport your service is terrible. Got billed £80 asked them to close account. Never watched it since pre lockdown 1 and today another £80 bill. Advised pay it or debt collectors will arrive then dispute it after payment. Very bad service. Still on hold 47mins to disconnect????

  • PHoare1963 Dr Peter Hoare ⌬ (Ph or pH? 🤔) (@PHoare1963) reported from Sacriston, England

    @PaulCaden1 and the students home Wi-fi likely no better either! I’m having to drive into work any day I am delivering online outreach presentations to schools or at online conferences as our home Wi-fi is so poor.....😳 @bt_uk?

    @btbusinesscare hi one of my business mailboxes is down. I spoke to tier 2 support earlier but no joy. It’s our main enquiries mailbox so it’s vital that we get back up and running ASAP. I am currently on hold not getting through to anyone for over 15 minutes. Please help.

  • TheBaronYT Alex Baron (@TheBaronYT) reported

    @bt_uk broadbands a joke atm clearly and issue with the line but had no answer for hours! Just wanna know when it’s fixed 😭

  • Charlotteeeee22 Charlotte Gill (@Charlotteeeee22) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Michaela. This doesn’t help me. What I NEED is to get through to your connections team which I’ve been cut out from 4 times NOW this evening. Ironic isn’t even the word!!

  • Charlotteeeee22 Charlotte Gill (@Charlotteeeee22) reported

    @bt_uk You’ve gone a bit quite on us Michaele... at least send us a dm to help us out?! @bt_uk again... you’re happy to take our money, not so happy to help your customers! OUR INTERNET ISN’T EVEN SET UP YET AND YOU’VE DISAPPOINTED US.

  • Mike_Sammon Mike Sammon 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶 (@Mike_Sammon) reported

    @BTBusiness @bt_uk I wonder if someone will reach out to me after being told by tech support that I night need to wait 48 hours for my business emails to get back online

  • EmmaJonesGB Emma Ransome💕 (@EmmaJonesGB) reported from Balderton, England

    @bt_uk helllooo is there a way of getting a new router from you at all? Mines over 5yrs old now and seems to be having connection issues causing the wifi to drop in and out all the time or the Chrome-cast / Google Nest not be able to detect certain things?

  • hobsonos Karl Antony (@hobsonos) reported

    @bt_uk Wasn't what I was told when I upgraded. Was told you'd check the router was in the best place in the home and the signal was good in all areas. I didnt realise I had to set up the equipment myself. Lucky I put my name on the account, my 70 mum wouldn't have a clue

  • NavYou111 Notorious N.A.V (@NavYou111) reported

    @bt_uk my internet keeps going off on certain devices and I have to restart the router but now it happens every other day. Aome help would be appreciated.

  • Charlotteeeee22 Charlotte Gill (@Charlotteeeee22) reported

    @bt_uk IS THIS A JOKE. THREE times I’ve been cut off from you tonight while I’ve been raising a complaint with you!!! You’re quick to take my money... not so quick to help me out!

  • iamdavidbudd IAMDAVIDBUDD (@iamdavidbudd) reported

    @AnneAshworth @bt_uk must be I suppose on landline there's this delay then sinister automated voice starts no wonder people are unnerved & suddenly they seem to be spreading - bogus Amazon calls etc 😐 also we're registered with Telephone Preference Service ages ago but recently they started coming
