    Absolutely awful service from @bt_uk 👎🏻👎🏻

  • 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

  • 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.

  • MandiJT Me (@MandiJT) reported from Brinscall, England

    @JohnWoodbridge6 @piersmorgan @bt_uk If you shut down BT call centres , you shut down the 999 service

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

    I thinking finding a needle in a haystack would be easier than finding the login page to watch #btsport online @btsportfootball @btsport #impossible #bestkeptsecretever

  • 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 👍

  • AntoniChm Antoni Chmielowski (@AntoniChm) reported from Southport, England

  • 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

  • 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?

  • AlastairMurray8 Alastair Murray (@AlastairMurray8) reported from Preston, England

    . @bt_uk awful once again. Service is now officially a week late.

  • MissBKearns Beth Kearns (@MissBKearns) reported from Banks, England

    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

  • 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.

  • FreakDanceUK FreakDanceUK (@FreakDanceUK) reported from Blackburn, England

    @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

  • calazeeka Calazeeka (@calazeeka) reported

    @bt_uk Reset is done. Still slow unfortunately.

  • twolochs Alex Gray (@twolochs) reported

    @bt_uk So people will have to pay £85 or more for a UPS just to get one hour back up service compared with the days of backup provided by the exchange on the old system. Our power cuts often last for many hours after such a unit would be exhausted.

  • alom18_alom Muhammad Alom (@alom18_alom) reported

    @bt_uk I was only told that there is a major issue in my area and BT is working on it. En3 area

  • ereuben Elliot Reuben (@ereuben) reported

    @bt_uk Have also swapped out various ethernet cables and sockets to see if that was the problem but it's not that either...

  • AJSC1991 Aaron Campbell (@AJSC1991) reported

    @bt_uk Lights cycle through all 3 colours. Takes a minute to fix. Tried to call but got a text message and the phone put down. The text messages say there's no issue with the internet/line

  • lemursolutions Lee Moore (@lemursolutions) reported

    @bt_uk @GordonC96705489 Internet still down @bt_uk can you please give us an update?

  • GordonC96705489 Gordon Cook (@GordonC96705489) reported

    @bt_uk Guess what.... the fix/date time has changed. Now apparently will be 9.00am on Monday. That will mean broadband will have been down for over 50 hours !!. Will now require a refund as over 48 hours.

  • ereuben Elliot Reuben (@ereuben) reported

    @bt_uk Hi there. Do you have any Whole Home WiFi (white discs) support online please?

  • ereuben Elliot Reuben (@ereuben) reported

    @bt_uk OK solved! Problem was with the ASUS router, something in latest firmware upgrade. Switched router WiFi capability off until primary disc was reconnected after factory reset. Now seems to be working, just resetting all the discs. Thanks Dom, pls add to database of fixes!

  • Dylan260594 Dylan (@Dylan260594) reported

    @btsport why am I not able to watch @ufc from last night, its on series record but keeps failing, can't find it on demand either? Why am I paying for your service when I don't get the services I'm paying for?
