• 
  Jonathan Richards (@JR_1871) reported 48 seconds ago from Reading, England

  Just lost my @bt_uk broadband - and they are saying it could be days before it’s repaired. I work from home. Disgraceful service. If I was days late with my payment they’d be all over me. If you’re with BT be warned. Apparently it’s due to us being in the ‘run up to Christmas’?

  Blimey never have I seen so many adverts packed in to @WWE #Raw. Seem like its every 5 minutes @BTCare

• 
  Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported 10 minutes ago from Maidenhead, England

  @bt_uk yet another epic fail. 34 minute call, transferred 3 times to the incorrect department, then cut off by the correct department dead on 9pm (home time) and you wonder why we want to cancel? 🤔

  Beth Willard (@BethcWillard) reported 10 minutes ago from Reading, England

  @_hypocaust Having the same issue with @btsport No coverage even though scheduled 😠

• 
  ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported 12 minutes ago from Bracknell, England

  @bt_uk A fix has already been run! I would like to claim for these historical issues separately to trying to fix any persisting ones. Otherwise I'm thinking I might not ever be compensated :) fix already done!

  NU v CFC BTSport- terrible commentary as per usual. The secret is to keep it simple and not continually talk bollocks....

• 
  Sharon Ducker (was Kuhl) (@Sharonkuhl) reported 19 minutes ago from Yateley, England

  @bt_uk I am amazed that you are still in business, your appalling customer service leaving my parents with no home phone, broadband that is not great, missed engineer appointments and on the wrong tariff and this is on going since OCTOBER, & she still pays u #eldery #vunerable

  John Edwards (@jwedwards1) reported 21 minutes ago from Marlow Bottom, England

  @bt_uk Any idea when this Broadband outage will be fixed? It’s been over 24 hours now #Marlow

  Kevin Buckland (@thomablue) reported 27 minutes ago from Reading, England

  @btsport commentary and pundits are objectionable and biased . You can stick your subscription up your red tinged arse- **** you 😂🤣😂🤣😂

  Nicholas Mazzei (@Tsar_Nicholas) reported 30 minutes ago from Wokingham, England

  100% with Gary Neville on this and I find it weird @SkySports @SkySportsPL needs to say this isn’t their view. You’re the broadcaster FFS; take a principled stand. You and @bt_uk have the power to force premier league to address the issues. Don’t be cowards.

• 
  Ian Reynolds (@pumps1000) reported 37 minutes ago from Reading, England

  @bt_uk The issue is that you charge customers for a service. A service which allows scammers access to your system. I would have been happy to give up the line for a token gesture. You try blocking 80 calls an hour!

  floralclaire (@floralclaire) reported 42 minutes ago from Bracknell, England

  @bt_uk please help my 80+ year old parents. Without phone or internet for 2 weeks since fibre works broke line. No one can/is fixing. They are desperate. Mobile only works in garden! Dunkirt Lane, Abbotts Ann. Please help!

  Prattle (@Prattle16) reported 43 minutes ago from Woodley, England

  @btsportmotogp @btsport do@you realise the level of disappointment & frustration you’ve introduced to my household this weekend by totally c***ing up the coverage? Worst part as I understand it - my husband can no longer record everything he wants to see as it’s on red button 😩

  Gary Byron (@GaryB1975) reported 44 minutes ago from Reading, England

  @chris_sutton73 @BBCSportScot got shut down at the presser pressing BR about @LCFV post. Its like they want to stop #10 in a row too @btsport

  Rob Percy (@RobPercyPhoto) reported 45 minutes ago from High Wycombe, England

  @John_McKee @bt_uk Hi John did you get anywhere with @bt_uk ? I’ve got exactly the same issue no activation until April but sold #hybridconnect as a short term fix before activation. But now I’m staring at a white light and blue signal bars.

• 
  Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported 45 minutes ago from Maidenhead, England

  @bt_uk No we were calling to cancel but had a billing issue first. Seeing as we were cut off we have no idea if the cancellation has been actioned or not?

• 
  Henry Johnson (@HenryJ489) reported 49 minutes ago from Kingsclere, England

  @bt_uk Yes the password finally came in the post after several phone calls and hours on hold. Thanks for getting back to me, but the process can’t be good if it takes months to reply and it takes a moody complaint through twitter to get a response.

• 
  Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported 51 minutes ago from High Wycombe, England

  The exchange in Beaconsfield has just fallen over, landlines and broadband down. Anyone from @btbusinesscare online who can get someone on the case. Has taken out most of the businesses in the area including their card processing capabilities? Thanks. #bthelp @OpenreachHelp

  James Parker (@PF_BootCamp) reported 51 minutes ago from Reading, England

  @bt_uk @KeoghanB @btsport Too late i was forced to watch a crap re run on YouTube today... obviously knowing the result. Absolutely zero help after many hours repeating my self on chat support, here and email. There is clearly a problem and nothing was done. I’ve screen shot convos to take this higher

• 
  Gavin Jones (@_gavinjones) reported 52 minutes ago from High Wycombe, England

  @bt_uk 1/2 didn’t get a call but a text instead, now due to be fixed on the 7th February. Not only is my phone line down so is the broadband

  @JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk 2) ...even though their network and ducts are right outside the properties the pole serves. They've caused so much trouble and wasted so much of my time, I've had to put the matter on hold. You can't allow anyone to disrupt your life to such an extent.

• 
  Even The Stars Music (@eventhestarsuk) reported 7 minutes ago

  @bt_uk hey. Why are you charging me £84 for a package a new customer can now get for £35 and the best price you can offer me is £65 with a 24 month contract? Ripping off long-term customers is a very bad look

• 
  Sev (@Sevka_T) reported 7 minutes ago

  Hi, I haven't been a customer since 2024 and today I am receiving texts and emails saying my trial is coming to an end. What is going on? @bt_uk

• 
  The Wiz (@TheWizYouTube) reported 10 minutes ago

  @MadMonkeyGroup Crappy BT INTERNET!! @bt_uk full fibre is worse than the previous cheaper package we were on! £48.99 for nothing!! Called them, still bad... Probably best to look elsewhere where and cancel BT soon as possible!!

• 
  Steve 💙💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Superfx101) reported 10 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Hi, thanks for the quick reply. That's what I did but they were significantly higher than what a new customer is offered. Is my only option to get the best deal is to switch provider? If so, then unfortunately I will have to do that.

• 
  Robin Shaw (@RSh234) reported 11 minutes ago

  @phillyonskem @bt_uk Totally agree. Literally hours on calls to ‘Guides’, only a few of which actually help, processes which ignore issues and no recourse without escalating to the Ombudsman!

• 
  Ba$ho (@MonkeyRaincoat) reported 18 minutes ago

  Hi @bt_uk I am desperate to talk to a real person. I don't have a BT account. My 95-year old neighbour has lost her phone and broadband connection. She is largely deaf as well. I can't call from her phone as it is not working...1/2

• 
  Kerry Sumner (@MinsterStudios) reported 20 minutes ago

  @bt_uk Yes I have done and I’ve rang you. Also rang twice previously before installation. Still sending my personal information to an ex partner not to mention I cannot access a god damn thing to do with MY account

• 
  H Paul O'Donnell (@HPaulODonnell) reported 21 minutes ago

  @JimSpenceDundee @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk Legal expenses claim on your Home Insurance Jim. If its covered there you're legal expenses insurer will pay for the damage to be repaired allowing you to pick the folks that fix it. Then your insurer can have the hassle of chasing BT to get their money back. Worth a phone call.

  @bt_uk @btbusinesscare @BTBusiness Broadband down all morning. Constantly being told there are no faults is not helping me get online. Help please 🙏
