  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • TheExiledRobin The Exiled Robin (@TheExiledRobin) reported from Llantrisant, Wales

    If it wasn’t bad enough watching this it’s made so much worse with this TV coverage. Please never let BT Sport have cricket again 😩 @btsport #ashes @Channel7

  • TMCI73 The Morlais Castle Inn (@TMCI73) reported from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales

    @bt_uk Good morning Your sales rep purposely missold me a residential package for our business I have had £300 taken from my account for a service you haven’t installed yet, I have been calling your service for 2 weeks everyday and no one is able to give me my money?

  • ippyfuzion Leon Ip (@ippyfuzion) reported from Newport, Wales

    @bt_uk No known issue. Since there was BT van outside my home doing some sort of upgrade on the copper wires of the area. Internet been very poor. Already replaced router twice. When gaming on PC with ethernet cable plug in and someone makes a WhatsApp call my ping spikes to 500ms!

  • Dai_ssrs Dai Williams (@Dai_ssrs) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    Did Liverpool have problems at centre back last season? Because I don’t think @btsport have mentioned it yet

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • johnsey80 Steve Johns (@johnsey80) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I'm not a @bt_uk customer but spoke to Payel via their chat service today to help my sister out. Above and beyond customer service, a credit to the company. Thank you Payel & BT

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point

  • WPTutz WPTuts (@WPTutz) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @bt_uk not happy that my broadband upload speed has dropped by nearly 70%... As a key factor to paying for the service, this is unacceptable! 👎

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Pontnewydd, Wales

    @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk over to you. Can you put in writing what the problem is please? You refused yesterday. @OpenreachHelp are listening and want to help.

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Bt business 0800800156 they said they would call back if the line got disconnected. No call back was received. I'd like to cancel the service please as I was hoping to postpone the installation but after a disappointing experience would prefer not to continue with it

  • Hanlccook Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk Hey there! No it’s still not working 🥺 however, I’m moving out of my house tomorrow and Into my new one. I’ve already spoke to an advisor about this a few weeks back but I’m not sure what to do? There’s no point ringing for an engineer when I’m moving. Shall we DM?

  • BigBernie4 Greg (Big Bernie) MW7BUF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇵🇸 (@BigBernie4) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @bt_uk no service all afternoon in the NP19 7LT area. Checked the status page, no known issues apparently. Tried to speak with an advisor, and there are none available. What's happening please?

  • MissESilcox MissESilcox (@MissESilcox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • SamSmithHiggins Sam Smith-Higgins (@SamSmithHiggins) reported from Henllys, Wales

    Shocking service from @bt_uk - no phone or internet for a week! Vulnerable adult here and nobody cares! welfare - ref C37677360 - only comms I'm getting is from Dave at @OpenreachHelp ! Sort it out BT!

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

  • RebIrvine Rebecca Irvine (@RebIrvine) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk on our 30th cal day with no Internet; BT advisors have stated the fault is with @OpenreachHelp but your Internal systems are not talking to oneanother effectively leaving us with no information on the nature of the problem. The estimated fix date goes up weekly. Ideas?

    Who are the commentators on BTSport? Absolutely awful

  • fragger224 Chris J (@fragger224) reported

    @bt_uk so the solution is borderline useless for me then? Can you let me know what the issue is for me and an ETA on when it'll be repaired?

  • Juevans70A Julie Evans (@Juevans70A) reported from Sale, England

    So annoying when your given a date for broadband installation sat in all morning and no one has been in touch to explain it’s been delayed for 3 weeks and then it will be reviewed still in confirmed date so now have no network as it has cancelled my current network 😡 @bt_uk

  • christophercmc2 Chris currie (@christophercmc2) reported

    @bt_uk internet issues in Lutterworth seriously you test all ok others say very low speeds come on is it time to switch

  • GBR2909 San MiGaz (@GBR2909) reported

    @BTCare I have tech booked for 13/11/21 between 10am - 12pm. I want this cancelled now. I cannot cancel online through booking and I’m not waiting over 30mins on the phone…that is a complete joke! Cancel it now !!

  • palfrey_kris Kris Palfrey (@palfrey_kris) reported

    @bt_uk Unbelievably poor, without internet since Tuesday waiting for an engineer. Engineer appointment booked today between 8am - 1pm only to be told at 1.20pm by texted you are not coming?!? And next available appointment is Tuesday next week! Disappointed is an understatement

  • MrLanMan Lance Manasse (@MrLanMan) reported

    I ask for a complaint to be logged, as I was misled. Had I known been told risk was there, I'd have gone a diff route. Later that in the call, I'm told by @BTCare agent she's closed the complaint!🤬🤬 How do you take a complaint, then just close it yourself! Pointless complaint!

  • _cacemu C (@_cacemu) reported

    @bt_uk @MarcAllera After following your advice of waiting for the customer resolutions team to deal with this issue, I have now waited a week for another response from them. Is there any way of making sure they do what they say they will? It is extremely worrying that this team…

  • thehowden Martin Howden (@thehowden) reported

    @bt_uk almost an hour with customer service just to get an answer 'will the engineer let me know when they are finished, so i can i see if it's working'. keep getting told that i have to wait to tomorrow to complain if it's not working.

  • coldvreath ColdvreathMill (@coldvreath) reported

    @bt_uk Yes I appreciate that but that patches the problems and there clearly is a long term issue with the infrastructure which needs addressing.

  • CharlyFeldman84 Dr Charly Feldman (@CharlyFeldman84) reported

    @bt_uk Internet is down again. Engineer is apparently coming today.
