    @bt_uk It wasn't the app, but because I can't get a mobile signal to sign in before it will allow me to use the WIFI, the app just keeps timing out with that error

  • davidmellstrom David Mellstrom (@davidmellstrom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @btsport @btsportrugby @bt_uk trying to watch Newcastle Falcons v Bristol tonight on BT1, BT1HD and BTUltimate and all BT channels are jumping and stuttering. Is it just me, or is everyone having this problem. It's usually fine. Every other channel is unaffected.

  • LeeJarraHackle Lee Hughes (@LeeJarraHackle) reported from South Shields, England

    Greedy @bt_uk , Greedy @SkySports how many more pubs have pulled out with your ££££ price hike hang your heads in shame

    @bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.

  • jackbnufc Jack Bell (@jackbnufc) reported from Newburn, England

    BT with the worst broadcast from presenters, commentators and broadcast itself (sound and video) woeful! #BTSport #MCINEW

  • Nicola_Johnston Nic Johnston 🇺🇦🌻 (@Nicola_Johnston) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    When I go to hell. I know what's waiting for me. It's the guys and girls at #BT billing. And I'm destined to unravel the web of **** for all eternity. @bt_uk

  • andydeltic andy (@andydeltic) reported from Gateshead, England

    @bt_uk Morning folks, I’ve lost my full fibre connection. I’ve logged it etc via the website. Is there an issue at the exchange or is this scheduled maintenance? Thanks in advance Andy

    @MarcSDuffy @bt_uk Hyperoptic has been amazing for me, much cheaper and customer service is really streamlined.

  • Northlander74 𝔖𝔱𝔢𝔭𝔥𝔢𝔫 𝔍. 𝔍𝔞𝔠𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔰 (@Northlander74) reported from Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, England

    @bt_uk No I haven't as I've never been anywhere near a BT WIFI Access Point and only relied on mobile network signal

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk 1/2 Not that this will go anywhere. BT SH2 had massive issues with service. OR been out "Fixed line" still issues ring so service desk. Engineer planned visit. NO Show. So ring the service desk again, Got LB call centre. Woman put the phone down on me.

  • AdamBygate Adam Bygate (@AdamBygate) reported from Rowlands Gill, England

    Nothing worse when a player dives and the commentators say "they won a foul" .. you are part of the problem @btsport

  • sri5308 Sarah Ilott (@sri5308) reported from Morpeth, England

    @bt_uk I need help please

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk No. As I've proved all I needed was a new hub. After being a BT customer for 20+ years. I'm looking forward October when my contract finishes. You have a good day.

  • Marksto1983 Mark Stokes (@Marksto1983) reported from Seaton Valley, England

    Dunno what hurt’s more my eyes watching that awful Spurs performance or my ears from that awful commentary from Martin Keowen #ARSTOT #Spurs #BTSport

    Hi @bt_uk, I moved in my new house two weeks today and I still have no internet and your doing nothing to fix it. I have had to cancel Sky twice and they are booked this Friday. I would like this sorted with an engineer visit tomorrow.

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk Listen. It's an ongoing joke. There isn't one company I've worked for where it's not an issue. 30% of my time is dealing with billing. I'll use my account team. Just wanted to vent.

  • jordanjoecooper Jordan Joe Cooper (@jordanjoecooper) reported

    1. @bt_uk Postcode lookup was failing & never provided any error msg or info to the user. What happened: "Loading, this shouldn't take long" - For 15+ minutes. What should've happened: "Oops this request is taking too long please try again later".

  • SonnyKnash Sonny Knash 😊🇨🇦 (@SonnyKnash) reported

    @bt_uk She is already trying to fix this on the phone. Engineer is allegedly supposed to be between 1-6. Considering the first one didn't check it was fixed and the next two didn't even show up, I'm not fancying my chances. Very sad to have such contempt for customers

  • FoxEboney 👑queen (@FoxEboney) reported

    @bt_uk I’m just curious, I’ve paid my internet bill & my WiFi keeps playing up. It is on blue but it’s playing up on all of my social media apps & even on my tv. It will not load apps.. loads of people across the UK are having problems I’m just wondering what’s going on?

  • OrientSteve72 Steve Coleman (@OrientSteve72) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry but waiting over 1 1/2 hours online and on the phone with no reply is poor @btsport and @SkyUK both under 20 minutes. You many want to feee that back

  • nigel_atter Nigel Atter MSc (@nigel_atter) reported

  • tim84926834 **** Marco Wilson (@tim84926834) reported

    Just as everyone expected off the names alone, this PPV is boring af. Thank you to @btsport for the free stream. I will never pay $70 for a Usman main event and the co-main are unranked women. Horrible fights @danawhite #ufc #ufc258 @USMAN84kg #martysnoozeman

  • WazzaWolves Wazza (@WazzaWolves) reported
