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

    AS Lambert (@abisarah79) reported from Woodcote, England

    @bt_uk No & they haven’t had a reasonable response or explanation,they’ve just been told @bt_uk don’t work sat & sun so will have to wait until Monday leaving them without landline or broadband for another 72 hrs! They had an engineer booked between 8am- 1pm today but they never came😒

    @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!

    @bt_uk Want to try a new router please so I know if thats the problem or not, thanks

    @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.

  • IanArnell
    Ian Arnell (@IanArnell) reported from Camberley, England

    @bt_uk As a new customer I have been the model of patience that is now growing thin. I did the honourable thing over 5 hours ago and sent you a DM. I am still waiting for an answer. Please no, I know you are busy. @Ofcom

  • Muzzhar
    Murray Heslin (@Muzzhar) reported from Wokingham, England

    @bt_uk internet going off 10-15 times a day no longer acceptable, especially when you are paying for a premier service, can’t get hold of faults either. Unacceptable!

  • 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 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.

  • tommaskell
    Tom Maskell (@tommaskell) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    Terrible service @bt_uk - I phone to report a series of scam calls purporting to be from you.... Get through to your nuisance phone calls dept only to have the call terminated.

  • heathercaudle
    Heather Caudle RN (@heathercaudle) reported from Camberley, England

    @bt_uk hello, ironically, I could not complete my online chat about my broadband and Wifi because my connection is very very bad. Please can I speak to a human.

  • Easters86
    Ian East (@Easters86) reported from Didcot, England

    @bt_uk Is broadband down in OX11 postcode area?

  • Tsar_Nicholas
    Nicholas Mazzei (@Tsar_Nicholas) reported 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.

  • 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

  • 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

    @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 😩

  • PF_BootCamp
    James Parker (@PF_BootCamp) reported 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

  • pumps1000
    Ian Reynolds (@pumps1000) reported 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!

    @bt_uk Hello, yesterday I highlighted I needed some extra support and the reasons why are on my account. I had a message to direct message you and you’d get back to me but you haven’t, any chance of hearing anything back? I’m now 8 days over the promised call back from a serious issue.

    @bt_uk Hi. I have done that, cleared. Called the number which button to press, as it's all about products, not help with online account?

  • adarkelimited
    Adam Darke (@adarkelimited) reported

    Another 3 hours on phone to @bt_uk today. Still unresolved, still no call back from manager, still no email as promised from bosses. Comfortably the worst customer service in the UK.

  • TEOL85
    The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported

    @bt_uk . Do your job and fix it if it was a dodgy untested update send the routers a new one tonight 0:00-6:00 to sort out the issue or if it's your exchanges end fix it there or if you can fix it remotely just do it but fix it what if our phone lines go out on an important phone call

  • Jacsplace3
    Jac Dee 🇺🇦 (@Jacsplace3) reported

    Finally, a customer service employee from @bt_uk is taking ownership of my complaint. Apologies offered by her. I have requested a timeline of everything to identify human error in ceasing the account. Agreed a plan to reinstate broadband & get a refund from @EE @BBCWatchdog

  • M300bt3
    Mo B (@M300bt3) reported

    @palmersears @bt_uk I have the same issue, on going for several weeks. When will this be resolved. Can't see bills or any products, requested a paper bill over a week ago and still haven't received that either. @bt_uk

  • MrAndyMich
    Andy Mich (@MrAndyMich) reported

    @bt_uk I’m absolutely disgusted, in this day & age of phone scams you have people phoning from unsolicited numbers about contract renewal (+44 1438 989233). All the person on the other end of the phone could say was “I promise I work on behalf of BT”. I said I can promise I’m the king of England. Do you see how stupid and dangerous this practice is? I think as a company you desperately need to review this, it’s dangerous and it’s making me think if you can be trusted at all. In this day and age it’s unforgivable to do this in this manner.
