    @bt_uk hi, is there an issue accessing subscription internet channels on BT TV. I have VIP package on 2 MyView boxes, both are showing status as connected to internet, however I cannot access any subscription channels (I.e. Now TV, BT Sports) on either box. Help?

  • jdnwils Jordan Wilson (@jdnwils) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @btsport going on about Randolph like he's never played football before. Pretty sure he's an international and has bags of premier league experience. @themoderndaygk what do you think?

  • thewolstencroft Michael Wolstencroft (@thewolstencroft) reported from Southport, England

    Been without broadband for a month, BT complaints team meant to ring today before 14:30 obviously no call. Currently on hold for 15 minutes. Absolute joke of a service @bt_uk

  • savigar_michael Michael savigar (@savigar_michael) reported from Leyland, England

    @TheRunningManZ @OpenreachHelp @bt_uk I remember when we had them down our street I had internet problem even though iam with plus net .

  • MikeNolan Michael Nolan (@MikeNolan) reported from Burscough, England

    Ordered @bt_uk broadband at the start of December with an installation date of 11 January. Not great but understandable in current circumstances. Just had text message saying new activation date is 8 March. Very poor.

  • LynLawrensonCNS LynLawrenson (@LynLawrensonCNS) reported from Pilling, England

    @bt_uk Outage but for how long??

  • KerryM811 K e r r i (@KerryM811) reported from Horwich, England

    @bt_uk Hi, my internet is running painfully slow - I’ve done a speed test that’s coming back at 32, but I can’t connect on my devices, also whilst watching Netflix/Prime it’s buffering. Could you arrange a booster for me so I can give that a try before finding a new provider?

  • storm_imaging Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk Well, it looks like I’m getting a new account set up. No idea why as I have correspondence to the new address about my move. As long as I don’t lose service.

  • DannyBuble Danny Bublé (@DannyBuble) reported from Wrightington, England

    @bt_uk hi, once again our internet is down in WN6 and has been for more than 24 hours. Please advise and don't take 6 days like you did last time. Cheers 👍

  • MrsW64242123 @MrsW (@MrsW64242123) reported from Penwortham, England

    @BTCare any indication When customer access to email will be restored?

  • storm_imaging Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi, I’ve had an ongoing issue with a home move since last week. Apparently it’s being dealt with - this morning I’ve just received an email asking if I want the move cancelled. I don’t. I’m in the property. I’ve been messaging about this for some days now.

  • Howardmicks Howard Saurin (@Howardmicks) reported from Preston, England

    @btsport @SkyHelpTeam bt sports ultimate ?? On sky really...Big let down could at least update your customers what's going on......disgrace

  • matthornby MattH (@matthornby) reported from Blackburn, England

    @bt_uk who do we contact to sort out the phone line at my Grandma's house, a building site next to hers has brought the wire down. She has been off since last Wednesday, had 2 engineers here and still hasn't been reconnected!! Also told to cancel her holiday

  • franners82 frances whitehead (@franners82) reported from Garstang, England

    @bt_uk what's happening with broadband in PR3 ?? Outage seems likely

    @bt_uk hi any indication when customer access to br email will be restored?

  • tonyknowles36 Tony Knowles (@tonyknowles36) reported from Blackburn, England

    @jimwilkz @btsport Worst part of it is Glenn McGrath attempting to be nice and gracious when talking about England. Jeez, he was the biggest 'Pommie' basher of them all!

  • samihowarth sami (@samihowarth) reported from Brinscall, England

    @bt_uk Not very helpful as that’s for broadband and phone line. I have no signal on my mobile phone?

  • BaptistBecker1 Spezza (@BaptistBecker1) reported from Southport, England

  • storm_imaging Craig Cooke (@storm_imaging) reported from Adlington, England

    @bt_uk hi. I moved home and had my services transferred. No problem. Today I have received an email saying I will be charged for ending the contract early and received another email about returning kit?

  • Phillipjfry2021 Kevin Johnson (@Phillipjfry2021) reported

    @btbusinesscare tbh, I am not even going to bother. I've emailed the retentions tea, who set my FTTP and will take a gamble on if they help me. BT is rubbish when anything goes wrong. 29 mins on hold to a foreign call center, 20 mins going through security. Put on hold and cut off again.

  • RichSeal_ Rich.Seal (@RichSeal_) reported

    @Dazsankey @btsport I don't think they gave PSG enough credit .. they played some excellent football 1st half. Plenty of English support for PSG tonight .. tribal rivalries / underdogs / Pochettino.

  • michadoggett Michaela (@michadoggett) reported

    @bt_uk internet totally down. I have fibre and can’t do anything. Will today of “not service” be refunded?

  • jenjuniper13 Jen (@jenjuniper13) reported

    @bt_uk Fab thanks, can you confirm that to your customer service team; they were adamant I wouldn’t get the same BT service unless I bought direct and not via a link to your site.

  • michadoggett Michaela (@michadoggett) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve not spoken to anyone but down doctor has several reports from other users in my area!

  • stvnormansays Steve Norman (@stvnormansays) reported

    @bt_uk As we discussed in a DM, 15 minutes quickly became another 24 hours. And that’s now become this… Estimated fix time: Fri 07/05/2021 at 19:00. That will be ten days without Internet. And that pathetic Mini Hub still doesn’t cut it. Never without, unbreakable, rubbish!

  • BarrettsFitness Graham Barrett (@BarrettsFitness) reported

    @btbusinesscare I’ve already had 3 live chats & the problem wasn’t resolved, should have been sorted by 28/4, promised a call regarding status yesterday, not received. Can anyone come out ? It has been 9 days now

  • Chombre2Chombre Ben chambers (@Chombre2Chombre) reported

    @bt_uk my internet has flickered on and off intermittently, and is now down, I thought these kinds of things weren’t affected by weather?

  • HS2theTruth John Marriott (@HS2theTruth) reported

    @hendopolis @bt_uk Several problems with "broadband". Water in the wires above & below ground. Speed drops randomly & stops occasionally. Fibre to the Cabinet but BT put the cabinet over a mile away so speed is under 18 even when working properly.

  • amyvalentinex Amy Valentine 🏹 (@amyvalentinex) reported

    Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced from @bt_uk @OpenreachHelp - no Internet for 3 weeks, and 2 engineer appointments where they just haven’t turned up. Unfathomably useless.
