    @bt_uk Nobody else games or owns a desktop so I'm not sure tbh. It's been a common issue for a while. I have spoken to a few people whom also have the same issue. There's also 100's of posts online about it. Trying to game is virtually impossible the second someone boots Netflix.

    @bt_uk Absolutely fuming isn’t the word! Awful service since day 1! I rely on my broadband to heat my home due to having Hive. When my internet’s down I can heat my home. Causing significant health implications! #goodbye #awful #poor #shocking

    Hi @bt_uk in appreciate that you are really busy at the moment but I really need some help regarding a change of circumstances with moving home. I was on hold for 5 hours yesterday, 2.5 today, have tried using the app and have sent a DM. Please can you help me as soon as you can

    @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?

    @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?

    @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?

  • 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.

    @bt_uk wow amazed with the shambles of customer service and lack of help this company has provided! Charging-no joke 15x more then actually price it should be/stated by them in the phone call! Wait for it! still not resolving the issue now since January @MoneyTelegraph #ombudsman

    @bt_uk spoke to a advisor 2 days ago about a network issue on our line and a engineer would be out, yet when I check on my account there is no fault raised and no engineer has turned up

  • andyes1984
    Andy E (@andyes1984) reported

    @bt_uk Shocking service, no escalation of a complaint allowed as your at home, leaving my vulnerable parents unconnected since early January. Almost an hour on hold every time we call to be fobbed off, not happy!!

  • Mnorthernmonkey
    Kay Hunt 💙💙 (@Mnorthernmonkey) reported

    @bt_uk My mum is being totally messed about by your installation team! She had an engineer round Monday, he seems to have cancelled her order now and her old number doesn't work and neither does the broadband! She was supposed to move over to you on the 15th! She can't get help

  • xRichardSlack
    🌑Richard Slack (@xRichardSlack) reported

    @bt_uk Could you set up a system where a customer could press a specific key sequence immediately after hanging up on a call to report it as a scam call? Once I have picked up the phone, my day is already interrupted, I don’t want to then have to find a website to report it.

  • Trieah1
    Trieah (@Trieah1) reported

    @bt_uk Spent an hour on the phone with BT yesterday. I was assured that I will get a call today to get an update from the supplier (openreach). Unless I'm getting a ring after 5pm, I doubt I'll hear back. WILL BT EVER, PLEASE, FOLLOW UP ON YOUR ACTIONS? Oh, I mean your actual service.
