  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @CloudDamo @virginmedia @bt_uk Simple thing had a good service been provided I’d not want to leave. But virgin media cannot even do that, so not thinking about leaving I am!

  • DavidTannerTV David Tanner (@DavidTannerTV) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @JimDelahunt @ScotsFootyCards @whyimeadie @btsportfootball @Betfred @btsport @spfl @spflnews @FootballThen @SportOnTheBox @FootballInT80s @davstu11 @1968Tv @andycameron1940 Haha! JD, I didn’t ever think about that! Damn. Those blue overalls that Dennis wore were a source of joy for me!

  • shwadywaddyday Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Do I even want to know how much our goverment is funding these works that @bt_uk are claiming for upgrading the network.

  • shwadywaddyday Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk So thanks to @bt_uk I owe £ 159.00 to @SSE for the cancelation of my contract. Then will leave me with no service whatsoever. It was bt that emailed me back in December to anounce I could now get fiber. I hope who ever calls tommoro is fully autherized to financially fix this.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @MakeDigitalWork @virginmedia I feel your pain! They provide such a poor service, with poor equipment and poor support. Holding them in breach of contract now as they are not providing what I am paying them for, cancelling and getting fttp with @bt_uk installed in 2 weeks

  • karenagalloway Karen A Galloway (@karenagalloway) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk We discovered the problem Catherine. Hub was plugged into extension. @tweetclix put a new socket in the wall and seems much improved!!

  • shwadywaddyday Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Thanks I guess only time will tell with that. Incompetence from 7 days prior to instal on 10th Jan, and now just over 3 weeks since then. The visit before install should have addressed all these issues. Prior to changing me to a more expensive service. I want the equipment out.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    Hello @bt_uk broadband goodbye @virginmedia. BT fibre being installed today! Finally virgin media have got some competition in the area. I can see everyone in the area switching in the coming months due to the poor service you’ve provided everyone in Currie.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    All the old @virginmedia equipment has been disconnected and unplugged! It’s been like night and day getting @bt_uk #fttp installed, so far 10 families in my street have moved away from VM... that’s what you get for poor customer service

  • celticghirlmo Moira Johnstone (@celticghirlmo) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk You need to cut down on the adverts it’s ridiculous you should be ashamed charging for a channel of nothing but adverts 🤬🤬🤬

  • Gillian1971 Gillian Macrosson (@Gillian1971) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Cold calling me at 7.50am on Saturday and 7.40am today to sell me stuff will ensure that I never sign up for your products ever again

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @stevegoodman @bt_uk @virginmedia I’ve given up on VM they’ve been the only fibre in the area for years and their service has gone from ok to bad to worse. Working from home was proving challenging. Teams would always say poor network quality

  • Ashie_Moto Ashley Louise (@Ashie_Moto) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk The problem is that We don’t have a landline so we don’t know the number to put in and check. We ran the diagnostic through the laptop which told us we needed to call.... I gave up after spending 40 mins on hold and getting nowhere. Not very impressed tbh.

  • paulgreig6 Paul Greig (@paulgreig6) reported from East Calder, Scotland

    @bt_uk absolute shambles of a service. Sat on hold for 29mins to then be cut off because your call hours are from 8am-9pm. I called within that time. Broadband setup has been absolutely shocking from Openreach install, product delivery & now setup. Get me on DM or phone ASAP!

  • Ox13SCO BJCampbell (@Ox13SCO) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @SkyCinemaUK @NetflixUK @bt_uk @AppleTV @PrimeVideo why not give something back and provide all your services free for 3 months to help the wider community #UKTOGETHER #KILLTHEVIRUS #COVID2019

  • fergusboden Fergus (@fergusboden) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Apparently an electricity problem has blown our area's internet and they might have to dig up the street to fix it. Anyone who knows me knows this is some of the worst news I could receive. (@bt_uk system was utterly clueless too, which was really helpful.)

  • DavidTannerTV David Tanner (@DavidTannerTV) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @MikeyRuddick @btsportfootball @HibernianFC @btsport @sunsetandvine Just read that. To be honest, he’s never a League 1-level player. I move would be good for him. He would to say no to Celtic.

  • shwadywaddyday Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk Thank you, 😌I called on Monday to get some info about the early contract buy out scheme so i asked then to start a complaint.. Thanks again for emailing them. Chris

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    New @bt_uk #fttp been in for a few days... what have I noticed so far, no drop outs, Wi-fi calling working decent internet speeds and general decent service unlike @virginmedia

  • shwadywaddyday Chris Osborne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SNP #indyref2 (@shwadywaddyday) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk I would if BT could do the job claimed. My fibre should have been active on the 9th Jan. I was told some BS about the routing route of the cables not as expected. Yet I know the fibre line is all set up and connected to the exchange now. . I've waited 7+ years Di I need to cancel

  • Jmaguire2 Joe Maguire (@Jmaguire2) reported from Hackney, England

    @btsport commentary has to be the worst thing, they're just talking rubbish. 'not a bad game this' is the least useful comment you could come up with

  • ca95014 Dom 🎧📱👨🏼‍💻 (@ca95014) reported from Liss, England

    @bt_uk Yep. Reset the adapters, reset the box. This only happens with BT Sport, no other channels have the issue.

  • fladog82 mark flather 🏆 (@fladog82) reported from Brighouse, England

    Chris Sutton saying Fulham are already down!!!! 🥴 #Fulham #btsport

  • connersofficial connersofficial™ (@connersofficial) reported from Leek, England

    2 times been out to broadband.. this time can’t even be arsed turn up after another afternoon waiting in absolutely pathetic can’t even get through on the phone after 38 minutes .. direct message no reply.. absolutely shocking customer service @BTCare 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • martinborgars Martin Borgars (@martinborgars) reported from Whitchurch, England

    @BTCare You really need to sort out your customer service support phone lines. Is having to wait 27 minutes to get a response really acceptable?

  • ca95014 Dom 🎧📱👨🏼‍💻 (@ca95014) reported from Liss, England

    @bt_uk It’s quite a specific scenario - it’s BT Sport 1 when I record UFC. So typically 2-3am on a weekend. Last night, for example. Very rarely issues with other channels recording, but at least 75% of the time the UFC has issues.

  • mbooton Mike Booton (@mbooton) reported from Swindon, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the contact but he already has this service. Unfortunately all the scammers do is use a rolling number so it's new every time they call. My Dad is no longer capable of putting numbers into a junk or block folder. We have to do it for him. So this doesn't stop calls.
