    Can someone from @btsport find that annoying kid in the @afcbournemouth stand and tell him to shit the f**k up.

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @BTCare I have an ongoing issue with my broadband I've been in touch a few times now, I've done as instructed & have plugged an ethernet cable into my laptop. I'm trying to watch a programme through the BT box on i player and it is just buffering all the time this can't be right

  • 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.

  • andydeltic andy (@andydeltic) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk afternoon folks. I’ve lost connection on my digital phone line. I’ve reset the handset and hub but the issue still exists. Any help would be fab thanks

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    A new development on the BT issue. Had a call following my Tweet from a person @bt_uk apologising for yesterday. Early termination fee waived, apology accepted and relationship restored. Both agreed that this wasn’t the way it should happen but impressed with the resolution.

  • 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.

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • 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.

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • laaurenmoore94 lauren moore (@laaurenmoore94) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Anyone else’s @btsport crashing all the time on bt sport 1 or is mine just bad! 😂😂pointless having it when that’s the main channel 😂😂😂

  • kphilchris Karen Brown (@kphilchris) reported from Ouston, England

    @BTCare we're having loads of problems with our broadband the connection is atrocious we've just paid to rent a film and now it won't play it is through BT is there anything can be done please, plus I need to make sure we are not charged.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

  • 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

  • Andyburness2 Andy burness (@Andyburness2) reported from Longbenton, England

    @btsport Turn ur phone on silent u stupid old prick

  • 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

  • Geordie_Shaun shaun (@Geordie_Shaun) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Cazza7 @btsport That’s crap. 🤬

  • chris_jelley Dr Chris Jelley (@chris_jelley) reported from Durham, England

    10+ years (probably more) of being a loyal @bt_uk @BTGroup customer and they couldn’t waive the early termination fee liable because my new move means I can’t transfer the contract to my temporary property. I will never use them again.

BT (British Telecom) Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AltglasV Véronique Altglas (@AltglasV) reported

    @bt_uk You’re effectively prevent people to cancel. You’re saying I must cancel a terminated contract. You say it can only be done by phone and when I tried to call no one answered my call for 20’. When I used the chat I was told it was sorted. Outrageous methods.

  • marlettsac S ✨ (@marlettsac) reported

    Why is it 2021/almost a year since a good proportion of the population started working from home and broadband companies like @skytv cannot liaise with @bt_uk re. engineer visits to sort your broken ("split line") broadband. Sick of calling for an update and not getting any.

  • skezzas ⓈⓀⒺⓏⓏⒶ (@skezzas) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve just got an email from BT saying my case for slow broadband is closed, the engineers not coming out until tomorrow, is that why you never have to give the money back guarantee

  • Cotly Cotly (@Cotly) reported

    @bt_uk Made a complaint and not heard back and no reply about it on Twitter either this conversation just stopped mid flow. You even had the cheek to ask me how the service was. So infuriating.

  • xRelentless7x Dave Robinson (@xRelentless7x) reported

    @DMcQ61 @bt_uk @SkyHelpTeam I'd just like stable consistent Internet access without blaming bloody virus for their unstable connections

  • AltglasV Véronique Altglas (@AltglasV) reported

    @bt_uk And I shouldn’t have been told it was all sorted last month? And it should be possible to cancel online especially if you don’t answer the phone? And people should not have to call while you wrote them their contract is terminated ?

  • SteveOrton14 Steve Orton (@SteveOrton14) reported

    @bt_uk My elderly parents move 1 mile down the road Why r they having so much trouble in getting a phone line working. Engineers dropping off calls, being passed for department to department, consumer blaming openreach.blah blah it’s been over a month yet u managed to bill them

  • Beanybabes Mark Dunn (@Beanybabes) reported

    @BTGroup @bt_uk what on earth is wrong with the internet?Stop buggering around with the bandwidths?Currently watching catch up tv through my BT box and all it’s doing is freezing. It’s been like it all day.I don’t pay all this sodding money for full fibre to get piss poor service

  • BrambleMum 🌱Helen (@BrambleMum) reported

    @bt_uk Keep getting emails with "amazing" new offers as my contract is about to expire. £8 more for the same service doesn't sound like a great offer to me so I must be missing something.

  • ConradTD Conrad Thomson-Dewey (@ConradTD) reported

    Hi @EE I am having problems setting up my new @btsport account?
