    @bt_uk Still having problems yes, it’s actually probably even worse now with virtually no internet at all

  • Becsybun Becs MG (@Becsybun) reported

    @TalkTalk - slow/dropping/no internet connection. @bt_uk landline is crackling too so may be part of the problem. Was told it was “fixed” so cancelled Openreach engineer visit as cannot take time off work unnecessarily but it’s gone again.

  • jonbradbury Jon Bradbury  (@jonbradbury) reported

    @ShortAxle @bt_uk Sorry but it’s consumer grade Service Level Agreement terms. Once enquired on the business service ISDN and it went from something like £40 a month to £150 a month to go from 4 day to 2 day SLA, and then £300 a month if you wanted 1 day SLA.

  • RetrogamesNow Roly's Arcade (@RetrogamesNow) reported from Brentwood, England

    @BTCare we are at our wits end with your customer service. You continually cancel our appointments as you say our service is fixed but it’s INTERMITTENT! And you have already admitted it’s a terrible service, and every weekend regular as clockwork you cancel our next engineer!

    @bt_uk All the items in the sent folder of my @btinternet.com account have literally all disapeared apart from the most recent four that I have sent since Wednesday 18 May. This is the same whether accessing on an imap client on iPhone or via the BT website via a browser. Help!

  • BrentLamb8 Brent Lamb (@BrentLamb8) reported

    @btsport I’ve tried all that, no joy, unfortunately. I think the problem is cookie related, I just want to sign in to my acc & watch What I pay for without faff.

  • GinoConte11 Gino Conte (@GinoConte11) reported

    BT Sport App on Chromecast is poor, consistent 480p quality. @btsport

  • DanieIJohnson_ Dan Johnson (@DanieIJohnson_) reported

    @BenJone89390755 @btsport @BTSportBoxing Fury’s never defended a world title, clings onto the ‘Lineal title’ & now he’s tricked his fan base into thinking he wanted the AJ fight. ‘The people’s champion’ 🤡.

  • mxcatt Matthew Catterall 🇪🇺 (@mxcatt) reported

    @bt_uk all my other channels are okay but I'm having trouble with the sound on BT Sports ESPN. Any idea why?

  • BrentLamb8 Brent Lamb (@BrentLamb8) reported

    @btsport I have done an online chat with a tech specialist & now the issue is resolved.
