    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.

    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?

    @BTCare Changes in an instant to orange and then back to blue. It is connected to main socket. I have a separate BT business hub on a business line with zero problems

    @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!

    If I hear the commentators say Atlanta for ATALANTA one more time I'm going to lose my ****!!!! @btsport #AtalantaPSG #Atalanta #PSG

    @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.

  • 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.

  • SourEnvy
    Elliot ⚽️🏈🎮 (@SourEnvy) reported from Leyland, England

    @bt_uk Hi, I want to remove the BT Sport package that's attached to my broadband account. How do I do this? Can't see an option to cancel on your website.

    @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

    @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 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.

  • 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!

    @jayclark0106 @EE @bt_uk Yes considering they are "the UK's biggest broadband provider" the service is not great. Already spent time on the phone to them and it still drops out regularly......

  • gavin277
    Gavin 277 (@gavin277) reported

    @bt_uk Is there a fault on your network in the LE17 area as there is no broadband

  • lnmackenzie1
    Lisa Mackenzie (@lnmackenzie1) reported

    @bt_uk Utterly shambolic customer service at your hands. Trying to help a very elderly medically vulnerable customer whose land line and broadband have been cancelled. Hours and hours spent on the phone to no avail. Next stop complaint to the regulator and seeking media coverage.

  • Sassytrip88
    TINA MOORE (@Sassytrip88) reported

    @bt_uk Yet still the internet is so slow and has been for weeks Ive done all the checks and found several people in my area experiencing the same problem. It's not good enough

  • IQuitMuskspace
    Mark Haynes (@IQuitMuskspace) reported

    .@bt_uk thanks for the great service. Almost two months on, still no fibre connection and now you have cancelled my contract right in the middle of our daughter's GCSE exams revision. Well done everybody.

  • me_not_animal
    🐧 Me Might be Animal! 🐧 (@me_not_animal) reported

    Well the @bt_uk saga continues! Emailed the ELC team on Friday about the issues, someone called first thing this morning and had escalated things with @WeAreOpenreach to have an engineer out this afternoon…. And surprise surprise, OpenReach failed to turn up again (3rd failure)

  • sansirio
    Hugh Jones (@sansirio) reported

    @bt_uk I have order VOL013-1056903730240, kit has arrived & I've set it up. Service is due to start on 17/6 but I learn that I can use the app to start before, i.e. today? The order doesn't show in the app & if I search for order + post code it claims they're incorrect. Help🙏?

  • sharon_railton
    Sharon&Mark (@sharon_railton) reported

    @bt_uk I got a call from Chris just after 8pm,basically everyone I spoke with at BT said it wasn’t their problem and that you outsource all your work to open reach,so take it up with them! I pay BT for a service and youre happy to leave vulnerable people without a phone line.Disgusting

  • Alex_CK2
    alex (@Alex_CK2) reported

    @BT_UK My parents been without WiFi for 3 days. They were told it was billing issue despite paying and having proof. Today my mum was passed between 5 people, blaming either billing or a copper wire switch. No fix, no warning, despite paying hundreds each month. Awful service.

  • TomChap
    Tom Chapman 🐀 (@TomChap) reported

    @bt_uk Hi, I have just signed in to the BT account and the last bill says (Final bill). Next to the BT account No it says (Inactive). I was in credit and this was sent to my bank account. So I'm guessing its ok to cancel.
