  @btsport I can't access my bt sport app. I pay for "Large Screen" on my phone to cast to my tv but have not been able to use it. Please help.

  Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported 17 minutes ago from Trethomas, Wales

  Honestly have the worst internet in the whole of South Wales, contacted @bt_uk so many times to sort it but **** all has been done. Joke of a company

  Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported 18 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  @btbusinesscare What could I put in a DM that isn't already in my Tweets? I've even include a Complaint Reference number for you.

  Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported 24 minutes ago 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?

  Darren Little (@Npteggchaser) reported 29 minutes ago from Victoria, Wales

  @bt_uk having trouble with our home broadband. Have followed your advice on texting a number, but no reply & still the same. Also, can't access own account either, even after pin number for resetting password. Can you please assist? Is there any phone number I can ring? Thanks.

  Don Maidment (@DonKiano) reported 30 minutes ago from Maesycwmmer, Wales

  @btsport The worst and toughest customer service experience I’ve ever had. 40 minutes of my life talking to an operator that had got no nearer to resolving my issue. Absolute awful service. Just ordered the monthly package tonight, paid £25. cancelled same night at a £25 loss

• 
  Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported 32 minutes ago 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?

• 
  Desta Omar (@desta_omar) reported 33 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  6 calls 3 live chats 2 texts 1 complaint cut off 3 times. Still no wifi and continual landline issues for an 82 year old lady who has been shielding for 22 weeks. Worst service in a pandemic from an essential service @bt_uk #btbad #cutoff #isolated direct reply plz

• 
  Giggsy (@DjGiggsy) reported 34 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  Why is it only now that I’ve thought about #MikeRiley using his self isolation to it’s full advantage. He could sit down & review the countless decisions that ‘his’ referees have f*cked up over the last 2 seasons. I’m sure @SkySports @btsport & @BBCSport could supply the footage

  Martz (@martzreed1975) reported 36 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @btsport @btsportfootball what I would change in football. Cancel injury time and adopt rugby rules. Clock stops at half time and fulltime and whistle blows when ball out of play.

  @bt_uk is there an issue with full fibre broadband in the south wales area?

• 
  John Crabtree (@jocra14) reported 44 minutes ago from Clevedon, England

  @Tonysmini @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk It was until last weekend but now it’s flashing. I’m told the issue is that Openreach have the wrong s/n attached to the property and Bt give them the correct one but it doesn’t get updated

• 
  Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported 47 minutes ago from Trethomas, Wales

  So after 2.5hrs of trying to source the issue and finally getting confirmation that our internet fault is outside of the house and down to @bt_uk have now been advised it’ll be fixed my 9th April - looks like we won’t be working from home this week then !😡 #time to change

  Ryan Price (@ryanprice1927) reported 48 minutes ago from Llantwit Fardre, Wales

  Time to cancel @SkySports and @btsport as I am funding this bollox. £80 million ffs. Better centre halves in the Rhondda

  lowri anne williams (@lowri_anne) reported 53 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @btsport do the right thing and let us cancel our contract! I’m a zero hours worker and every penny counts. @SkySports and @PremierSportsTV have been more than fair #DoTheRightThing #getamoralcompass

  Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported 55 minutes ago from Caerphilly, Wales

  @bt_uk the light on my hub is purple and has been all afternoon. I’ve turned it on and off multiple times. Still no internet. Can someone help me please!

• 
  Dave Bowden (@DaveBStDW) reported 56 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

  Di- Rect..🎗️🇮🇱🇬🇧(To The Point) (@ReformedMr) reported 6 minutes ago

  @bt_uk After yesterday’s direct messages with one of your employees I thought this problem would be resolved. Unfortunately, that is already been dashed by your total ignorance not to help after you promised me you would help. It would be elevated to a higher level . Nothing.

  Carol Lord (@CarolLo58903853) reported 16 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Have finally spoken to someone this am. Despite it being a similar fault rectified by openreach in the past somewhere down the track, was told nothing BT could do & suggested I try a different b/b provider!! Only after making a massive fuss I now have an open reach appt on Mon

  @neil_huntingdon #LoveNHS #FBPE #BWithTheT (@neil_huntingdon) reported 17 minutes ago

  @bt_uk @AndreaS51917891 @EE My BT broadband has been broken for a week. BT say they don't even know if they CAN fix it, let alone when. Many broken promises to keep me informed. Utterly useless. Please fix it, or release me from my contract.

• 
  namecantbebrank (@alreetson) reported 18 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Since Tuesday, it's been an exasperating experience trying to understand what has happened and why. Her annex is now effectively redundant and she is confused about if she is, post-takeover, a BT customer or a Plusnet customer, and keeps getting stonewalled on the phone.

  Ruth Knight (@LadyRufus) reported 21 minutes ago

  @ClaireMadMax @bt_uk If your internet goes off you can’t make a call either! No mobile signal where I live. Excellent work BT😡

  @bt_uk How about you deal with our problem - any assistance, a human who understands and is willing to sort out mother’s broadband issues after weeks and weeks of nothing would be appreciated.

  Ed Thomson (@ThomsonEdwint) reported 23 minutes ago

  @JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk It’s Circet that seems to be doing installations and doing a good enough job on the track but won’t repair damage done by mini digger to the road when finished. 🫣

  Professor Bu’Ger De Fino ™️🥶 (@maskcempt) reported 23 minutes ago

  @maisiethetortie @NLeespeaking We (@bt_uk) have to ‘send a text’ to the 3rd party mobile phone that IS working, so we can continue this conversation about the actual BT landline not working. We’ll spend the next 15 mins sending silly codes to the only WORKING telephone !

• 
  Jim Spence (@JimSpenceDundee) reported 27 minutes ago

  Over the last few three weeks I did what I thought was the decent thing and allowed workers from @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk and their contractors, to access my property to check two poles, which were NOT on my property, but in neighbouring properties where access was awkward, but not impossible. This below was the resulting damage from a wire attached to my house to a pole outwith my house, as they worked on it. I’m now expected to fill in a lengthy explanatory form and seek private estimates to repair it, before returning the form to their lawyers. This costs me time and effort for a problem not of my making.
