  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @bt_uk hello, I've had an ongoing broadband instability issue for around 6 months - frequently when I'm using IP voice applications the service is disrupted - I've tried to raise a fault on this a number of times - help!!

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris ⚽️ (@Andymorris74) reported from South Shields, England

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • d4rryl23 Darryl Arnett (@d4rryl23) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just had an experience with your customer service, with which I still don’t have an answer, if I can get your fttp services. My new post is DH4 4ZL. Your web site says that your fttp service is available. If someone can help and views this post. Please do

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

  • 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.

  • Sturrock85 Andrew Sturrock (@Sturrock85) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    I presume the awful @btsport stream on @YouTube is a ploy to get people to subscribe. It's awful, despite what is usually a good connection.

  • John_P_Turner John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • JohnRobson18 John Robson (@JohnRobson18) reported from Wallsend, England

    I predict spurs to lose 5 -0 they are awful. @btsport

  • timtamw88 Tamara Watts (@timtamw88) reported from Blyth, England

    @bt_uk are the most incompetent company. I’m only a month into my contract and I want to cancel already. Terrible customer service, they just pass you to another dept and then your back to the start. I’ve never rang a company so much to get something sorted. #terrible

  • joshybanyard Josh Banyard (@joshybanyard) reported from Longbenton, England

    As lovely as it is for @btsport too show the #ChampionsLeagueFinal for free but the stream is awful...

  • richberglin Rich Berglin (@richberglin) reported

    @BritishTelecom @bt_uk Any idea when you are going to fix v26 of the BTCloud desktop client? Clearly untested before release. The forums are full of the AV issue and systray app crashes. V17 was perfectly ok.

  • ms_amber_leaf Oz (@ms_amber_leaf) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Aisling. You are quicker than responding than any of your phone operators. We have placed numerous orders which have then been cancelled without any notice or any explanation. So we are paying BT for a service that they will not be provided.

  • hfc53 Helen Coleman (@hfc53) reported

    @bt_uk Spoken to advisor & no further forward. Openreach advised BT all works are completed, yet no lines have been added to the network, coincidentally original line is now down to 1.5mbs, surely Openreach wouldn’t split lines meaning both lines are not fit for purpose??@OpenreachHelp

  • MikeMooreDJ Mike Moore - Mike Moore Ents - Surrey & Hants PAT. (@MikeMooreDJ) reported

    @bt_uk Hi David, Where to start. When I renewed my contract my speed was reduced, and a new smart hub 2. Netflix, over a minute to load, we use ring central for work (nhs), start a meeting, then get messages my internet connection is unstable, lappy within 6' of ...

  • RealGhostPod Real Life Ghost Stories Podcast (@RealGhostPod) reported

    @bt_uk Can’t get through on phone - had text to say there is a problem with my line and need engineer visit

  • stuart_sal Sal Stuart (@stuart_sal) reported

    @bt_uk I've just got home from overseas and am currently isolating. I've lost my sim card and have no home phone to call and ask for a replacement SIM. The BT online chat couldn't help me, is there anyone who can help me get a replacement sim card please?

  • Themattcar M@ttcar1 (@Themattcar) reported

    @btsport how can i make my contract that i've signed up for work with my bt box? #help

  • markwebb15 Mark Webb (@markwebb15) reported

    @BTCare @bt_uk you keep emailing me to activate my free 6 months BritBox as I amBT customer. As soon as I press activate - it says I am not eligible. Stop emailing, if I am not entitled.
