    @EE a few weeks back I could watch BTSport on my Xbox or Fire TV, now I can do neither without being told I need to upgrade my subscription. Can you help please?

    @RichCounty27 @bt_uk Unbelievable honestly, we pay for the super fast broadband as we use it for home tv and both for work but am seriously considering moving now - another bloody week with no service and paying a fortune to run a hot spot thru my phone

  • murfilicious
    Chris Murphy (@murfilicious) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk I am still having issues yes, someone at EE is currently investigating whether or not I have the package on my contract (I do)

  • TNevillee
    Tom Neville (@TNevillee) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Honestly have the worst internet in the whole of South Wales, contacted @bt_uk so many times to sort it but **** all has been done. Joke of a company

    @bt_uk @Tommy_OConnor You should be ashamed writting that, no sports coverage due to most serious situation we are likely to face in peace time and you want to charge 😱😱😱 On the poor service list you go for when this is over...

    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

    @bt_uk To cancel my broadband

    Annette Pritchard (@touristory) reported from Barry, Wales

    With no irony intended, I’ve been trying to download this story for 5 minutes. Nowhere as bad as some of the worst areas I imagine but really a few lines of text, just a couple of miles from Cardiff #Sully @BT_UK

  • 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!

    @btsport Having a few audio issues with the commentary here. A few words are getting garbled and I can’t understand most of what they’re saying. Can you ask Fletcher to take his tongue out of Messi’s arse and that should clear it all up?

  • GreggC_CC
    Gregg 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GreggC_CC) reported from Newport, Wales

    @jackfb22 @btsport @btsportrugby @virginmedia Glad it's on channel 4 too today. Even if it's not so good commentary. Has to be a feed issue somewhere, because the adverts were fine.

  • MHswans
    Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

    @seimon76 @privilegecafe_ @DC_Wales Try the #DevicesDotNow campaign from @futuredotnowuk which we have been supporting at @bt_uk - with devices going to @Online_Centres - longer term, it may be worth considering joining the network - pob lwc. #digitalinclusion

  • CitrusArtsUK
    Citrus Arts UK (@CitrusArtsUK) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    I had at least 3 conversations with staff saying this wouldn't happen, but it happened anyway. Now 3 weeks later of broken promises after broken promise they still can't re-connect us. @bt_uk this is total incompetence and foot dragging to repair your mistakes.

    @bt_uk @btbusinesscare Any chance you can help @btbusinesscare ? It’s so annoying

    @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?

  • nicnacnoopixs
    Nickynackynoo (@nicnacnoopixs) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    @bt_uk what’s going on guys - after a run of two weeks and no internet issues now we’ve got nothing again !

  • desta_omar
    Desta Omar (@desta_omar) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    6 calls 3 live chats 2 texts 1 complaint cut off 3 times. Still no wifi and continual landline issues for an 82 year old lady who has been shielding for 22 weeks. Worst service in a pandemic from an essential service @bt_uk #btbad #cutoff #isolated direct reply plz

    (((Ian McKenzie))) 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇫🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇬🇱 (@iMcKenzied) reported

    @bt_uk I’ve already been told there is nothing that can be done. @bt_uk are going to take double payments for the same line for 7 months and have made clear that after 48 years do not want me as a customer when I do find somewhere to live. Seems unnecessary to me.

  • Monetization26
    Mr Gray (@Monetization26) reported

    @robincornelius @bt_uk @ThreeUKSupport Hi Robin, is that affecting EE customers do you know as mines been down all morning and when ive phoned up they are saying there’s nothing wrong and I’m saying well there definitely is as nothing it work?.

  • nooneatnowhere
    noone@nowhere (@nooneatnowhere) reported

    @bt_uk you are not listening...we have done that at least 4 times now...hours on the phone every time...a complaint was made in JUNE...nothing is ever done. Everyone just blames someone else. For a "communications" company you are an utter joke.

  • andy_carson101
    andy carson (@andy_carson101) reported

    @eventhestarsuk @bt_uk sign up as new customer with the missus or someone else in house.... btw for around same price we get virgin with sport movies telly top speed internet & netflix

  • alreetson
    namecantbebrank (@alreetson) reported

    @bt_uk She's paying money for this service that she is not getting, do you understand this? That has been ceased without warning of this one line per property policy that was never communicated. What the hell would you do if you encountered similar in your life?

  • nwwilson
    Norman Wilson (@nwwilson) reported

    @bt_uk Service is an absolute joke. AGAIN my Internet doesn't freaking work. Absolute dog ****. I am paying for this crap. 4 days for an engineer. NOT acceptable

  • sideangleballs
    RichNotRich (@sideangleballs) reported

    @bt_uk @btbusinesscare My business broadband has been down all morning and in my efforts to log in to fault check you've now locked me out of my account! Help please!!

    Sev (@Sevka_T) reported

    Hi, I haven't been a customer since 2024 and today I am receiving texts and emails saying my trial is coming to an end. What is going on? @bt_uk

  • CarolLo58903853
    Carol Lord (@CarolLo58903853) reported

    @bt_uk is there a broadband issue in some areas this pm? The call delay suggests yes. I can't stand at the top of the garden for 90mins to wait for a call back from you and 'WiFi calling' indoors obviously isn't working. Very frustrating 😕

    @RSh234 @bt_uk @bt_uk are shockingly bad.
