  • Simmy270 Josh (@Simmy270) reported from Longton, England

    @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.

  • AndyLeighGolf Andy Leigh (@AndyLeighGolf) reported from Chorley, England

    Glad I don’t have @btsport if they have Steve McManaman commentating. Very poor. Obviously hates #ManchesterUnited. Horrible to listen too. We know how #VAR works you twonk!

  • AdamPlatt95 Adam Platt (@AdamPlatt95) reported from Chorley, England

    @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

  • davidpfilm Dave Pickering (@davidpfilm) reported

    @bt_uk Hi. Broadband is down in S73 area, have tried the usual cable reconnect and test socket procedure but nothing's working. Is there a wider issue? Thanks

  • CjLakin Clare (@CjLakin) reported

    @bt_uk I have full fibre, so I want to cancel my landline. It’s never been used

  • DT_S5 DT (@DT_S5) reported

    @bt_uk Hi Scott, no it's apps through the BT Box. Why don't you send customers the latest box when they extend or remain with you? @PrimeVideo and @NOWTV riddled with errors and paused on your platform.

  • Simondorondo Simon Worrell (@Simondorondo) reported

    Hi @bt_uk, I signed up for a monthly sports pass and have been unable to cancel it online since. It auto-renews at an increased price on Thursday, so really need it sorting by then please.

  • rebelrouser29 terry (@rebelrouser29) reported

    @BTCare I can see my Data on bt. com. And have deleted the App and reinstated it still the same problem.

  • cochbach Chris Bach (@cochbach) reported

    @bt_uk What is my notice period if I cancel please? 12 months out of contract Halo1 and PAYG phone. (28 and 14 days are mentioned )

  • TomRoberts2212 Tom Roberts (@TomRoberts2212) reported

    @bt_uk @AshtonWestMIB Ashton - it will be interesting to see how quickly they fix the problem now that they, presumably, know of it. We were without Internet, a couple of weeks ago, for about two days. It was a different provider but all our contact was by phone.

  • JontyOfficial Jonty Sargeant (@JontyOfficial) reported

    @adamsummerton @SerieA_EN @btsport Just left the ground!! I’ll hang on my hat on saying Vlahovic will never make it in the Prem 🫡

  • alickie66 alickie (@alickie66) reported

    @AidytheTim @bt_uk I've been waiting since January and I'm a longstanding existing BT customer. I sincerely hope you are sorted faster

  • SebRees1 Sebastian Rees (@SebRees1) reported

    @bt_uk It's for Full Fibre 2 instillation! Got sent a text saying he was on his way this morning (slot was 8AM-1PM). Why don't you have access to info if engineers are no-shows? How can I know if I reschedule the appointment we won't have the same problem again?
