  • Gavinallen Gavin Allen (@Gavinallen) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport make it as hard as possible to leave. No way to cancel via the app, live chatbot says it can’t perform that function. BT person on phone says I have to call my bank to put a bar on the DD they set up. How does a company with service this bad have any customers?

  • johnsey80 Steve Johns (@johnsey80) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I'm not a @bt_uk customer but spoke to Payel via their chat service today to help my sister out. Above and beyond customer service, a credit to the company. Thank you Payel & BT

  • RebIrvine Rebecca Irvine (@RebIrvine) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk on our 30th cal day with no Internet; BT advisors have stated the fault is with @OpenreachHelp but your Internal systems are not talking to oneanother effectively leaving us with no information on the nature of the problem. The estimated fix date goes up weekly. Ideas?

  • GhGriff27 Gavin (@GhGriff27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport I can't access my bt sport app. I pay for "Large Screen" on my phone to cast to my tv but have not been able to use it. Please help.

  • MissESilcox MissESilcox (@MissESilcox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    The ref and VAR taking so long to come to a decision has broken @btsport #Victory #ALeague

  • cymruchris Chris Griffiths 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@cymruchris) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @bt_uk I've just released I'm being charged for a sim that I asked to be disconnected months ago. Can you help please?

  • Hanlccook Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @bt_uk the light on my hub is purple and has been all afternoon. I’ve turned it on and off multiple times. Still no internet. Can someone help me please!

  • martzreed1975 Martz (@martzreed1975) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @btsport @btsportfootball what I would change in football. Cancel injury time and adopt rugby rules. Clock stops at half time and fulltime and whistle blows when ball out of play.

  • darth_noga Noga Fett (@darth_noga) reported from Barry, Wales

    Absolutely shocking service from @virginmedia a 47% price increase for a customer of over 25 years and would rather lose a customer than give us a deal that new customers get. @BTCare @SkyHelpTeam can you do any better?

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Bt business 0800800156 they said they would call back if the line got disconnected. No call back was received. I'd like to cancel the service please as I was hoping to postpone the installation but after a disappointing experience would prefer not to continue with it

  • Smilers_Coffee Rich M (@Smilers_Coffee) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @btbusinesscare Just messaged but I would still like to cancel at this point

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk If you provided the service I’m paying for I wouldn’t have to use my mobile data. I’m meant to be working from home tonight and tomorrow night. Do you want to tell my boss I can’t because I don’t have sufficient internet access??

  • Hanlccook Han🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Hanlccook) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk Hey there! No it’s still not working 🥺 however, I’m moving out of my house tomorrow and Into my new one. I’ve already spoke to an advisor about this a few weeks back but I’m not sure what to do? There’s no point ringing for an engineer when I’m moving. Shall we DM?

  • Natalieball1984 NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk absolutely appalling customer service to my mum who had shielded since March 2020! She can't use BT sports anymore and BT are saying £130+ to remove it!! She doesn't have any money! She is stressed, immune compromised and BT drop this on her! Shameful!

  • jaisullivan Jai Sullivan (@jaisullivan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, it was bought via @BTCare on 19/10/2020. The model is 1679 and it’s definitely not as a result of any settings issue. It’s a physical problem with the device.

  • BigBernie4 Greg (Big Bernie) MW7BUF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇵🇸 (@BigBernie4) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @bt_uk no service all afternoon in the NP19 7LT area. Checked the status page, no known issues apparently. Tried to speak with an advisor, and there are none available. What's happening please?

  • julianevans11 Julian Evans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@julianevans11) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk How about you just provide the service we’re paying for…

  • TheExiledRobin The Exiled Robin (@TheExiledRobin) reported from Llantrisant, Wales

    If it wasn’t bad enough watching this it’s made so much worse with this TV coverage. Please never let BT Sport have cricket again 😩 @btsport #ashes @Channel7

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Sean4Llandaff @cardiffcouncil There is work happening updating the @bt_uk network on Ely Rd. The newly multi-patched surfaces are now uneven trip hazards. In France councils coordinate with utilities, so that the paths are not lifted and patched continuously. Can we do better?

  • ippyfuzion Leon Ip (@ippyfuzion) reported from Newport, Wales

    @bt_uk No known issue. Since there was BT van outside my home doing some sort of upgrade on the copper wires of the area. Internet been very poor. Already replaced router twice. When gaming on PC with ethernet cable plug in and someone makes a WhatsApp call my ping spikes to 500ms!

    @bt_uk hi, I changed my mobile plan on December 4th, however the order is still open. I can’t manage my plan online until the order closes. Please can you help? Thanks

  • susiefoz Su Foster (@susiefoz) reported

    @bt_uk @MarcAllera You didn’t keep me connected. Despite raising 2 complaints, my broadband is still unacceptably poor

  • jrandrews72 Jeremy (@jrandrews72) reported

    @bt_uk After getting lots of scam callers on the landline we have with you I asked your agent if anything can be done. I had BT Call Protect but it needed setting up. Your agent "ordered" it for me and now its removed from my account. Time to cancel my landline I think.

  • ComXcomics Eddie Deighton (@ComXcomics) reported

    @Toyhorn_ Totally agree. I still have a complaint open with @bt_uk and no-one has followed up from an issue I've had since November 5th. Shocking customer support/service, despite what they think they're offering.

  • Grahammcgreavy Graham Mcgreavy (@Grahammcgreavy) reported

    @btbusinesscare @bt_uk for the 3rd time in a week you male appointments that you fail to keep.. what is it with rhis business that people still keep using? Totally useless .

  • nutmegnige Nigel (@nutmegnige) reported

    @btbusinesscare Well, @btbusinesscare despite all my complaining & your promises, you **** it up again! I was told I would get a phone call update today, but hey I didn’t! How do I cancel my order? This incompetence is unbelievable, i shall be looking to withdraw all my services.

  • SeanDavid1989 Sean Pattison (@SeanDavid1989) reported

    @bt_uk You're an admin vortex. First I have to constantly chase you to update my account, then when do update my account, you change all my personal details and delete my email address from your records! What are you playing at?! Non-stop issues for 3 months.

  • fidor98 Fido (@fidor98) reported

    @bt_uk daily tweet #1 asking why my parebts started the process of getting bt internet 3 weeks ago and have been told it won't be possible until January 6th. Terrible customer service. Pathetic.
