  • DanHewitt2011 Daniel Hewitt (@DanHewitt2011) reported from Gillingham, England

    @bt_uk Wouldn’t it be an idea to put out a tweet explaining that to everyone in this area because so far reading on here and Facebook the communication has been poor and no one really knows what’s happening

  • philjel1 Philjel (@philjel1) reported from Basildon, England

    @btsport would it be possible to do a pay per view or subscription service? Only want to watch the #GallagherPremFinal but don’t have BTSport.

  • LaMC1987 La Coltelli ⭐️ (@LaMC1987) reported from Basildon, England

    @bt_uk disgusted at the service been without no internet for nearly 10 hours and been fobbed off each time with it will be fixed within 2 hours really? Total Wi-Fi not impressed!!!! 🤯

  • DanHewitt2011 Daniel Hewitt (@DanHewitt2011) reported from Gillingham, England

    @btsport Shame we knew that was in before he hit it well bad delay between coms and picture

  • JonStannard Jon Stannard (@JonStannard) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @premierleague serious questions need to be asked about the ref and VAR. If Pickford had broken VVD leg? No action? Still accountable for his actions, the offside is irrelevant. #Peterwalton @btsport

  • Karbs1961 Marc Karbaron (@Karbs1961) reported from Basildon, England

    @bt_uk that this has been sorted. Just rang back a second time and after 1hr on hold the phone cut off. I am appalled at the disgusting service I have received having been a long term customer. I entered into a new contract with you I don’t expect bills for double the amount 2/3

  • Mattpsychol Matt Brown (@Mattpsychol) reported from Bicknacre, England

    Can anyone at @bt_uk help?!? My parents in 70s have been waiting for phone line & broadband to be installed - order place on 4th July. They’re completed without internet or phone with v poor mobile signal. They rely on internet and in current Covid climate it’s distressing them!

  • Karbs1961 Marc Karbaron (@Karbs1961) reported from Basildon, England

    @bt_uk and to then spend 2 hours out of my day trying to ring you to corrrect your mistake. Can you Dm me please otherwise I shall be cancelling my direct debut and invoking my 14 day statutory right to cancel my contract 3/3

  • rider45 Brian O'Keefe (@rider45) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @K_Katastrophe @DebbieFletcher @bt_uk Plusnet is separate from BT but owned by them, I think you’ll find with the big companies that customer service is poor, especially now with many call centres cut back, I’ve been with BT broadband since 2001 not let me down thus far.

  • IanMaxy94 Ian Maxwell (@IanMaxy94) reported from Billericay, England

    @bt_uk my BT Sport app on Xbox makes my TV go to a black screen whenever I load it, how do I fix this? I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but hasn’t worked

  • KerenOrient Keren Harrison ⚽️ (@KerenOrient) reported from Brentwood, England

    @bt_uk Just upgraded to Smart Hub 2. After logging out of website and back in its managed to get back into the stream now but having wanted to watch a 90 mins football match pretty peeved that we missed most of 2nd half due to poor broadband 🤯 and we lost 🤬

  • baldybeardyguy Alister FULTON (@baldybeardyguy) reported from Rochester, England

    Week 5 of broadband speeds so slow with @bt_uk we may as well not have it. 4g is faster. They've fiddled and dig and made excuses and now, once again, can't even update when they've said they would. All this, right now when we're trying to work and school from home. @Ofcom
