    @bt_uk I talked to BT re changing the account holder, who had died. Was told needed new contract, credit check, but no loss of service. Cut off that night told not connected for 10 days! People work from home! Help!

    @bt_uk Hey BT I was in the middle of work tonight at around 1230am and lost my broadband connection. Went through troubleshooting. Restarted my router and now have solid orange light. Status page says you are working on the network. Was this planned maintenance? I live in SW16

    @bt_uk I’m extremely concerned about my elderly, vulnerable father who has been without his home phone service for 48 hours. I reported the fault yeasterday morning & it’s still not working. I hope you can understand how worried I am, please help!

    @btsport @btsportfootball lol why can’t the commentators be honest and just say even with injuries team selection have been poor and they are a victim of there own ego!

    Jane Tippett (@Janietip) reported from Camberwell, England

    @bt_uk Everyday since Friday #Broadband has gone down around this time. In and off all day and then again late afternoon. #troubleshooter every day but still happens. Weather related???

    @Tonysmini @bt_uk A database should be updated in minutes, not weeks. 4 weeks is ridiculously slow. Guess I just need to be patient. 😡

  • DavidRobson84
    David Robson 🎧🎬🌈 (@DavidRobson84) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk I’m getting SO many cold calls on the landline recently, especially first thing in the morning. How do I log it/make it stop? 😭 It’s that much of a nuisance I want to cancel it but need it for work…

  • OrignalBabydoll
    Kafayat Toks MamaBear🐻 Timson🇳🇬🇸🇱🇬🇧 (@OrignalBabydoll) reported from Croydon, England

    @bt_uk You are very condescending right now. My household can’t do our jobs because of your crap service. And it’s fibre optic broadband. Drs & supermarket staff are working through the pandemic too. We can’t today & tomorrow because of a full outage. Don’t be ignorant with your replies

    @thebedfordfox @btsport Not a bad cricketer either David.

    David Venters (@VentersGaming) reported from Croydon, England

    @bt_uk engineer has been est repair date next tuesday , ive done cabling and seen how fibre optic is made sounds like it maybe a cracked cable as if its a card my connection be down its just slow

    @howiejk @bt_uk Most still blame COVID, which I think after two years is a poor excuse.

    @btsportfootball @btsport Fix your Ultimate channels it's 4mins gone in the match and I'm still watching ads? It's been 8mins of ads.

    What is this #BTSport idiot talking about ?? Luiz was about to head the ball when he was shoved in the back 🙄🙄#COYG

  • JTyrrell_
    Joe Tyrrell (@JTyrrell_) reported from Lambeth, England

    @bt_uk It would help if you enabled being able to stream the coverage from a mobile device onto a tv via Chromecast or similar. I don’t have access to another device other than a mobile and I’m sure you can appreciate watching on a mobile isn’t ideal.

  • excellenceinLDN

    @bt_uk I cannot log into MyBT app nor the BT website. Is the system down? I need to access my bills urgently.

  • dpmunn19
    daniel munn (@dpmunn19) reported from Aveley, England

    I am so gutted I can’t watch @WestHam all thanks to @btsport and @EE when I pay £15 a month for a service and now I can not log in because my BT ID no longer works and get told I have to wait 72 hours for it to be sorted. Absolute Joke. 😡😡😡😡

  • TheStarPA
    The Star PA (@TheStarPA) reported from Poplar, England

    @bt_uk I have been trying to help a client with their complaint for long time. It includes a residential and a business account. It has been impossible to follow up over the phone. It seems that the only department available is sales. Could you please tell me what to do next? Thx

  • livefr33diehard
    C.N. (@livefr33diehard) reported from Bromley, England

    @bt_uk excellent customer service from Tom this morning. Refreshing to actually have people who are committed to solving your problem. Best experience I’ve had with BT and I’ve been a customer for 6yrs +. Just to add it wasn’t the outcome I wanted but can’t fault Tom for trying!

    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported

    @bt_uk my mum is a vulnerable customer and had a new connection on the 1st July and it’s never worked. An engineer was due on the 8th, 14th and today I’ve now been told it’s the 15th and she isn’t able to make it. Every-time I call I have to repeat the same tale. Help.

  • LucioFulciFan
    James Ferguson 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇮🇹 (@LucioFulciFan) reported

    @bt_uk I would like to discuss a small issue with my bill.

  • palacejohn
    John (@palacejohn) reported

    @bt_uk Incorrect. Tried but the same useless system. Finally successful by using option to leave BT. Straight through to a human being, strange how loss of customers is more important than giving good service.

  • Amit72191182463
    Amit (@Amit72191182463) reported

    @btbusinesscare I have a BT business connection for the last 2years where my contract was ending on 6th August, 2026. I called to terminate the contract but I have been asked to pay until 16th August. Also, you charged a £18 disconnection fee. Why do I need to pay after contract?

  • CrackedRearView
    Mat Oliver (@CrackedRearView) reported

    @VodafoneUK Nice to see my full fibre connection has wet itself. Not a hardware issue my end, and I never got a single drop with @bt_uk any works going on local to Elmswell Suffolk? This package isn’t cheap!

  • Bubbler_Ranx
    Lou Skunt (@Bubbler_Ranx) reported

    @bt_uk I've been on the fuckarse internet for 30 bludclart years. I don't need my ******* hand held. This **** is not important.

  • GFX2001
    Ian Robson (@GFX2001) reported

    @Ofcom @bt_uk I do not understand why it is so difficult to report Nuisance Calls / Hang-ups. You have to complete a very lengthy form for a Call. And each Call you have to re-enter all the details again. And then to get to the "I Am Not Robot" pictures that don't work.

  • leedvnprt
    lee davenport (@leedvnprt) reported

    @bt_uk I can't because the My BT app and online is broken. Just keep ending up on a page that says that you cant access my account and you're working on a fix. It's been like that since around April!

  • Haggisguy
    Alan Swanson (@Haggisguy) reported

    @bt_uk So how do i pay my bill? I cannot login to pay it?

  • mandllewellyn
    Amanda Llewellyn (@mandllewellyn) reported

    @btbusinesscare Done that - of course! And your colleague’s are unable to assist me as it’s “a known problem” and “the only solution is to create a new email address”.
