    @btsport what’s going on. Why can’t I watch PSG game yet have to listen to pundits banging on about the Chelsea performance. WTF!

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

    @bt_uk Hello! 👋 Apologies this may be a silly query, but I did the auto-fault reporting thing 2 days ago, and it kept alternating between saying it was ok and saying it wasn't, so I just want to check that the slow broadband connection actually did get reported properly? Thanks!

  • vickyclarke76 vicky clarke (@vickyclarke76) reported from Mortimer Common, England

    @bt_uk I have been really disappointed with your service so and have only been with you since December last year. Nothing is ever dealt with when I contact your team! Please can you sort it out?

  • RobPercyPhoto Rob Percy (@RobPercyPhoto) reported 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.

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

    @bt_uk Hello! I'm a bit concerned that you guys couldn't see a fault on my line any more a couple of days ago, as I've an engineer coming. It really is slow, but it won't even let me do BT speed test bcs a fault is reported. Can I check whether you think there's still a fault? :)

  • CllrHelenTaylor Cllr Helen Taylor (@CllrHelenTaylor) reported 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?

  • HartTrippy John Tripp (@HartTrippy) reported from Yateley, England

    @bt_uk do you have issues with email spam filters? Inbox full of rubbish 😐

  • Sharonkuhl Sharon Ducker (was Kuhl) (@Sharonkuhl) reported 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

  • carboncoach Dave Hampton (Standing as Earth) 🌍 (@carboncoach) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

  • BethcWillard Beth Willard (@BethcWillard) reported from Reading, England

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

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    Another day of bad experience with @virginmedia broadband service in RG6 area. Buffering on streaming service, no video calls possible on Skype and WhatsApp. Seriously thinking of switching to @bt_uk

  • jwedwards1 John Edwards (@jwedwards1) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

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

  • JR_1871 Jonathan Richards (@JR_1871) reported 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’?

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

    @bt_uk Hello! I've had a problem: for a year (between first 2 speed tests), my broadband speed was much lower than advertised. I just did another: ok but still seems lower? An engineer confirmed & said I should claim money back for the year & ongoing if still happening.

  • Westofcenter Andy West (@Westofcenter) reported from Lower Shiplake, England

    .@bt_uk are you aware of situations today where scamming calls cause Broadband to go down? Have received two today and both times, caused loss of connection.

  • fiddler_mike mikef (@fiddler_mike) reported from Kingsclere, England

    @bt_uk is there a problem with the BT email service at the moment? Cheers

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

    @bt_uk HELLO AGAIN JUST AN UPDATE WITH MY MOTHERS ON-GOING PHONE ISSUE (& YES I AM SHOUTING) her phone was due to be connected in OCTOBER 2019-various errors by YOU means even after an engineer visit yesterday we are no further forward. MY MUM IS 77 & NEEDS HER HOME PHONE #POOR

  • SuperScienceGrl ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported 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!

  • shaz_perry Sharon Perry Art (@shaz_perry) reported from Reading, England

    @bt_uk engineer booked for this morning between 8 and 1 to fix slow connection yet hasn't shown up.

  • Julienothidden Public Miss Smith (@Julienothidden) reported from Skelmanthorpe, England

    @bt_uk hello trying to change account name after my father died. Finally negotiated after several attempts your phone lines. When spoke to a person and was being transfered we got cut off. HELP you are proving the most difficult to sort out! Thank you in anticipation

  • pastyman72 🇬🇮 Darren Crisp 🇬🇮 (@pastyman72) reported

    @bt_uk I've had an email saying my TV contract is ending. Was going to renew but can't get through by phone and I'm unable to manage my account at all online due to an ongoing issue (2 years now!) that you have failed to rectify. What do I need to do?

  • LordBabyBrown Carl Brown (@LordBabyBrown) reported

    @bt_uk I’m really disappointed with how you treated my mum. She not had phone services for weeks. Now you got her account working. The internet has gone down few days ago. She was told that there was a fault in the area. Now she been told she cancelled her contract?

  • MikeMooreDJ Mike Moore - Mike Moore Ents - Surrey & Hants PAT. (@MikeMooreDJ) reported

    @bt_uk ... router, only got a stable con., by hard wiring. Also, my MIL email is being closed today by you, and I can't find her login details to d/l emails. Can't say I'm the happiest of bunnies.

  • HuttEbony Ebony Hutt (@HuttEbony) reported

    @bt_uk experiencing the worst customer service this morning. Cancelled contract in Oct, still got billed in November (shouldn’t have). Trying to request a refund, on the phone for an hour, get transferred twice & then call cut off 😡

  • supergranular More of an idea, really (@supergranular) reported

    @bt_uk Problem was solved. Seems to have been openreach. Entire area was down.

  • hfc53 Helen Coleman (@hfc53) reported

    @bt_uk Spoken to advisor & no further forward. Openreach advised BT all works are completed, yet no lines have been added to the network, coincidentally original line is now down to 1.5mbs, surely Openreach wouldn’t split lines meaning both lines are not fit for purpose??@OpenreachHelp

  • stuart_sal Sal Stuart (@stuart_sal) reported

    @bt_uk I've just got home from overseas and am currently isolating. I've lost my sim card and have no home phone to call and ask for a replacement SIM. The BT online chat couldn't help me, is there anyone who can help me get a replacement sim card please?

  • MikeMooreDJ Mike Moore - Mike Moore Ents - Surrey & Hants PAT. (@MikeMooreDJ) reported

    @bt_uk Hi David, Where to start. When I renewed my contract my speed was reduced, and a new smart hub 2. Netflix, over a minute to load, we use ring central for work (nhs), start a meeting, then get messages my internet connection is unstable, lappy within 6' of ...

  • TheUKJoe90 Innovatum (@TheUKJoe90) reported

    @bt_uk Dispute resolution non-existent; easier just not to reply apparently and pass to debt collectors. Great way to treat an elderly customer who had been with you for 50 plus years. #BT#NoShame
